So, this is going to be some sort of slice of life starring a ridiculously shapely gal with amazing hair?

I'm sold!

Whelp, that sure is what I’d expect an anime about the mascot for a game company associated with an otaku audience to look like. She gets out of bed! She eats breakfast! She rides her bicycle through the streets, being almost pathologically cheerful and cute! All of the sudden she takes her clothes off to reveal a bikini, but she just keeps on smiling! None of this has any meaning to her, she no perspective of her own, no inner life, no meaningful dreams of her own or any other traits of genuine basic humanity whatsoever!

From the looks of it, I don’t think that I’d find watching this boring so much as depressing. I feel like the sheer emptiness would creep into my soul and rot it away from within until hollow. If I do enjoy it, it will probably resemble the feeling of freezing to death. At best it might be benign. You know, like the kind of tumor that isn’t cancerous.

*breathes*

Ah, now I feel better. Perhaps this will offer some catharsis after all. Nonetheless, unless it turns out that this was a misleading first impression or that the series is some kind of satire, I’ll just stay away from now on.

You know it's just going to be a fanservice anime laser targeted at otaku who like fanservice, so why even bother working up this passive aggressive negative stance to it, Surrender Artist? Just don't watch it and everyone will be better off.

Err...her day job is as a Gravure idol?

I mean, its not like that was immediately followed, in the PV, by her doing a photoshoot.

Now the show is almost certainly going to be very fluffy and not have a huge amount of substance, but choosing that to insult it on is strange, since it actually has a good explanation, in the PV itself!

Also I think her headphones are part of her head.

Want some moderation with that attitude, pal?

I've given you ample warnings at this point, so if you can't learn to be civil then you give us no other option.

There isn't anything extreme or excessive about my post (really starting to think that you have something against me from a personal standpoint).

At the end of the day, there is NOTHING wrong with voicing my disagreement with an individuals comments (especially ones that are exhibiting the same tired and ridiculous attitudes). Don't understand why you (and only you) seem to have an issue with that.

There is nothing wrong with voicing a disagreement with an individuals comments. The underlying problem isn't that you disagree, but how you disagree. Your little need to take jabs in parentheses even in this last post only demonstrates the problem here. You are expected to contribute to the discussion and be respectful of the opinions of others even in disagreement; the forum rules say as much.

Saying "want some cheese with your whine?" does not contribute a thing to the discussion. It's a condescending and toxic comment that doesn't contribute a viewpoint, doesn't counter their viewpoint, or provide anything even remotely of value aside from being a jerk to someone because you don't see things their way. This is hardly any different than a lot of the constantly berating and condescending posts you habitually make on the forums, and it's not just me who has an issue with it considering every time I do show up it's in response to reports being sent to us by forum users regarding your posts. In spite of having under 300 posts you've managed to become one of the most reported users on the forums by far. If your behavior improves the moderation will be removed, but until then we feel it is necessary to approve your posts before they will be applied due to the negative environment you continue to create with your attitude towards others in this community.

At any rate, there is a feedback forum if you wish to take this matter up further, but there is no need to further derail a talkback thread.
