anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day (TV).

Would I go as far as to say i loved this person? Of course not, I don't think anyone would.

It turns out it's just trying to get me in tears with a freaking ghost.

I only saw the first episode. And I meant the b tag to be a spoiler tag, sorry about that.

Anyway, this is just a childish melodrama for people who can't like any better. Has every merit for it, and maybe it's good, even. But it's not for me, and I was let down. I will see the second episode, but I don't intent to watch the series to the end.

This kind of show is meant for people who like the feeling of compassion towards others. In my experience, most of those people are too self-centered to bother being compassionate towards real people, so they close themselves in soap operas. In this case, an animated soap opera.

I like irony, not to deus ex machina. I like tragedy, not fatalism. I like realism, not common place. I like creativity, not cliche.

I also like big boobs and nice hips, exposed skin and cute girls with cute personalities. Haven't seen any of that either.

:EDIT:
Oh, scratch that, that redhead is nice, but her character is common place.

WarpWarrior - hey, it's cool if you don't like the show, but do you have to be such a douche bag with respect to your dumb assumptions about those who may be liking it? Childish melodrama for people who can't like any better? Not only is that mangled grammar, it's flagrantly insulting, troll-tits. And what kind of effed up "psychology" are you using to assume that this show is meant for people who like feeling compassion towards others but are too self-centred to bother being compassionate towards real people? Wow, I've seen some real drivel in my time at ANN, but that takes the cake.

Who lets these dipshits in, anyway?

How the hell do you judge an anime by only watching the first ep.

Watch the first ep of School Days and tell me if you can guess the ending.

Ahhh, the sweet trollish know-it-all's will always complain. What the fudge do you want? Did I mention you in my post? No? I thought I did! Because it was all a plot to piss you off with my "psychology" of the mind, you know that, of course.

Mate, I don't give a flying fudge about your opinion of me. It's cool if you don't like me or my tone or my opinions. It's also cool if you don't wanna argue and just wanna insult people. But just to make it clear, It is as you say, it's a generalization, but you wouldn't be all offended and bitchy if you had any grasp on the mind of a reader/viewer, because you'd know generalizations are what series are based on: target audience. Anyway, you probably don't know or don't care, but that doesn't mean it's all lies. Besides, who am I to tell you what to like? Just because something is made for a group I don't belong to, doesn't mean I can't like it. Sames goes for you, you know?

Ahhh, the sweet trollish know-it-all's will always complain.

You made my day

The fact you didn't mention me by nic in your post is irrelevant. You made a ludicrous, negative generalization about people who like shows like AnoHana. Around here, that's known as trolling. I don't expect you to understand. After all, you'd need an I.Q. of at least 30 to comprehend my point and you seem to fall well short of even that minimal standard.

But hey - have a GREAT day!

You're right, my opinion is as solid as a jello, but you can't really argue by just point out how unsupported they are. Hum... Usually people say something "oh, the show is more than that, keep watching and you'll see", and while that's not an argument per se, it's at least something. I don't care how unfounded my opinion of AnoHana is as long as it's anywhere close to the truth. And by your reaction and Blood's, I'm probably not far off.

"I'll put it in very simple terms, so you can understand. Basil Brush is not for me. It's a show made for children with short attention spans and weak critical thinking who just like to see things flying around and hearing short catchphrases. In my experience, these kids end up being too dumb to know their ass from their head."

Anyway, this is just a childish melodrama for people who can't like any better.
