    if you go back and watch akira/ghost in the shell/bebop/evangelion/lain/etc they just aren't as good as they were 20+ years ago. they were great at the time tho 'cause so many animes back then had original concepts that would mind fuck you
    bebop/vampire hunter d bloodlust still hold up for me.

The last T.V. show that had me hooked and anxiously awaiting a new episode every week was Breaking Bad. About the only other show I watch regularly is Archer. Never even got into Doctor Who and other popular tv shows.
    i don't mind anime if it is mixed with humor, or just straight up cartoons. i think the naruto/bleach style anime is relatively cringe.

    potentially because of the childish elements in these shows that are supposed to be cute/endearing or would be cute/endearing if they were real people and not animated just come off as cringe to me.

    my opinion yeah, i put it in the unpopular thread expecting to get shit on for it

    Bleach was good up until Hueco Mundo and then it fell off a cliff.

    But, you see, you didn't say that.
    You didn't say AN anime (that is popular) is shit, you said (all) anime is shit.

    It's the unpopular opinion thread, not the shittarded opinion thread.

    I used to feel like an intellectual when I was a kid because I looked up all the pretentious imagery in evangelion as a kid.

    I did the same thing but with Xenogears, I felt like a real snob in freshmen literature.

    Kill La Kill was great. The best things about anime is that they seasons and series aren't long and drawn out. I love those 2 season shows that are over and done with. All loose ends tied up etc. That's something American TV shows need to start adopting is letting TV shows end and not continually renewing them because of ratings because it will start to turn to shit after season 5.

    Same until Shinji decided to jerk it to a hospitalized Asuka. Pretty sure I was just a degen after that.

    In Eva/Xenogears defense, there still seems to be a lack of god killing mechs content today.

    I mean it's like your Bleach example. Kubo ran out of outlines at Hueco Mundo, Xenogears ran out of budget.

    I tried xenogears a few years ago and god damn that game is jrpg as fuck. Do yall have trouble replaying those games? As I've gotten older I just have a real hard time doing it. Only exceptions are the new rereleases for final fantasy where they're adding boosts and stuff that make it bearable.
