Wait you mean like people liked it because it was nothing special, boring, and made by PA Works? What kind of masochists are these!? | ||

I was mostly just giving my perspective on what you hated in the second half, that's all  I still think it's a good show lol. I'm sure there are other good shows out there as well. I'll probably end up watching them when I stumble onto them (and if I have time) | ||

So "time" isn't a valid excuse anymore imoimo | ||

What I mean specifically is, even if a show is considered great and all it still won't appeal to everyone. So when you take personal taste into account you narrow your field of what anime you enjoy considerably and that allows for watching plenty of "average" anime because average anime still give plenty of enjoyment and don't really tie up your time to the extent where you are missing anything of importance. I for example have no interest what so ever in watching LoGH, a series that seems to enjoy high esteem of a large number of people. We are also somewhat wandering into the subjective here as any show someone labels "average-at-best" is also other peoples "favorite of all time". thank you Slaughter. This is exactly what I wanted to write but wasn't sure how to phrase it well enough. Even though some people think Pet Sakura is at best average and others think it's shit, I enjoyed it as much as I enjoyed Clannad and Little Busters etc... | ||

I was merely saying if he's going to make a joke, at least not fail in the execution of it. On November 27 2013 11:07 Slaughter wrote: Time makes perfect sense.

This is fair, but you make it sound like the type of you anime like is just "average", which I assume is not your intention. Maybe you're referring to genre? In that case,every genre has their fair share of good and well known apples that I'm positive even the most well-watched of veterans have probably not gone through. *shrug* | ||

The music, animation and initial impressions of the characters are pretty good (some of the characters ended up being much better than I anticipated, although not the majority). The characters have their moments and actually seem to react to events in realistic ways. The problems were awful pacing, cliche overarching plot and predictable events over the course of the whole show, which might not be offset by whatever small gems it offered for some. I don't think it was good, myself, but it's not impossible to see why someone would. The OP is so sweet, though~~ | ||

The point your head I did not miss your point, no need to be passive aggressive ><; Slaughter wrote exactly what I was going to post. "Must see" animes can also be subjective. To me, they are 'must see' because more people than not liked them but doesn't mean that I would like it as well. As it's already obvious, I have a different taste in anime than most people on here. LoGH seems ok but I wouldn't dedicate that much time to watch it unless I was really really interested in it. I can watch several other animes that seemed as interesting to me and I'm fine with that.

I was referring to the point that he said he had no interest in it and that just because something is a "must see" anime, it doesn't mean that he will necessarily like it thus why I bolded the subjective part. Point is, I'm not commenting on LoGH as an anime. I'm commenting on the whole 'must see' concept and how there's still subjectivity to it. I think you're misunderstanding what I was commenting on. | ||

I didn't say it wasn't a must see anime. What I meant is that its not a must see FOR ME even though for a lot of people it is considered a must see. I know this because I read about it and I am not really into that genre at all. Could I end up liking it if I sat down and watched it? Sure, but based simply on what I know of LoGH and the fact that its an aesthetically older style of animation that I never was a fan of doesn't make it a priority to watch (especially since its fairly long). | ||
