Every time I get downvoted for pointing out the rampant and casual pedophilia plaguing anime, I hate weebs a little bit more.
This. I don’t partake in anything anime related and I’m mostly neutral on it as a whole, but the prevalence of pedophilia and related themes is highly disturbing as is the lack of pushback against it from the community.
And, that being said, the people who make anime their entire personality are also… difficult to be around.
No joke. They’re the kind of people that have to over-dramatize every damn thing and have explosive reactions to anything.
Like calm the fuck down, you’re not in an anime show.
That’s why I don’t like most anime. There are some gems that don’t stoop that low, but the bar is ridiculously low for such a high rate of not meeting it

I dislike how common certain tropes are, how overacted it is, and how formulaic most of the stories are. I also hate Shounen and its focus on which guy is strongest. It’s boring to me.
I don’t care for any of it. I don’t like comic books and I don’t like Star Wars either.
Hell yeah. I’ve finally found another who will say it out loud.
He’s a witch!
Yes I despise it, I hate the influence it’s had on making everything over sexualized and cliched
Yesterday I drove by Düsseldorf, which is Germany’s most Weeaboo city, and they had this ugly fucking mural at their train station.
I don’t mind most anime/manga based media, but media about anime/manga makes me really uncomfortable. Defining yourself by the fact you like Anime is just a lot weirder than defining yourself by the fact you like JJBA or InitalD.
Yeah, I don’t get it. So I guess I don’t really like it, but am I missing something?
Not really. I find horror movies boring because the characters always do dumb shit to get in trouble.
If you don’t like something, you don’t miss anything.
The only animes I watched till the end are Full Metal Alchemist and Shaman King, because they have a good length.
I liked JoJo Bizzare Adventures at first, but it got long and boring after a season and a half.
I tried to watch a lot of popular anime, but I can’t stand fillers, which 99% of anime have.
I dislike it, because I am not 12.
I find that there is far too much of it in my Lemmy feed. I have a very long list of blocked communities which I have blocked, tediously, one at a time as they appeared. Obviously a lot of people like it, but it’s not for me.
I wish there was a setting similar to the one that blocks NSFW content, but for anime and manga.
Nope. Just the over-indulging fans.
I don’t identify myself as an Otaku and I’m not going to.
Wtf is this question?
OP has been in a lengthy struggle with the world over media. They swore off manga previously due to “christian morals” and the fact that Zombieland Saga contained zombies, then got back into it because of Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure, and now it seems they’ve hit another block within the last month.
And it’s not just manga. They’ve also had an issue with Wikipedia.
Shouldn’t “does anybody else” questions be banned from this sub? Lol
This feels like a post ripped straight from the new AI Reddit. Every other post on there is some dumb ass generic question, really irking me to see that starting to overflow here now
Engagement bait
Well I for one don’t want to marry OP
Does anybody dislike anime and manga?
No, everybody in the world likes anime and manga. Or they’re indifferent to it at worst.
The only anime I think is good is studio ghibli, ghost in the shell, cowboy bebop, and similar. That’s top notch. Other stuff that like super giggly is uninteresting. Manga reminds me to stop browsing /all and go back to /home.
like most things, some of it is very good but the vast majority of it is extremely poor. I wouldn’t say I like or dislike it as a rule but I’d say on average I dislike it by far, and when it’s bad it has a way of being very intolerably bad.
Those are pretty broad categories. It’s like asking “Does anybody dislike cartoons and comics?”
To my utter dismay, I’ve learnt that there are some people who find that question entirely sensible and normal.
I know people who will refuse to watch anything animated or comic related
ive got a friend who will say all the time that she doesn’t like cartoons but was literally ready to shove kids out of the way to watch kung fu panda 4
Does anybody dislike media?
It’s like asking “Does anybody dislike cartoons and comics?”
I have to disagree.
Comics is a huge, world-encompassing category of media in which events & stories are depicted through (generally) simplified art with text insertions. Manga (for example) is a subset of comics, being both specific to a single country as well as existing as a certain style of comics.Personally I’d add that manga tends to exist under fairly tight conventions in terms of how things are visually portrayed and in terms of how information and context is given towards the reader. For example, kind of like emojis, there’s a bunch of facial reactions and certain simple phrases that instantly tell you what mood or reaction a character or the author is trying to impart. This kind of thing isn’t surprising to me either, as Japan tends to heavily codify cultural tradition, even in a relatively new-ish field like manga. There’s also the fact that an enormous tradition in manga came out of aping or riffing on the early creators, primarily Tezuka Osamu I’d say.
So, point is-- one can dislike a certain niche or branch of comics, but that certainly doesn’t have any special impact on how one likes comics in general. Personally I’m not a huge fan of manga, and superhero comics bore the tights off me, and I’m not as much a fan of underground comics as I used to be, but overall I’m a huge fan of the comics medium, and of course love me some BD, part of why I try to make a new post daily.
Manga is the Japanese word for comics. There are many different styles and inspirations by a myriad of artists.
It’s like saying all cartoons are the same as Disney, or all comics are basically Superman.
Yes, “manga” is the Japanese word for comics, but in terms of the overall, world genre of comics? It specifically refers to comics within a certain style, ~99% of it being Japanese-made.
It’s like saying all cartoons are the same as Disney, or all comics are basically Superman.
Yes, those are some nonsensical falsisms. Thanks for randomly stating them?
Never read manga, watched some anime. I don’t care for the art style, at all.
