ESPECIALLY after that arc. it. + Show Spoiler +In many ways he's meant to be a reverse of saitama. He doesn't have any special powers, he's truly just an average human who has a strong sense of justice. He's also not #1 rank C hero for nothing, he does a LOT of good work and is an overall great person. I mean just look at how him and saitama interacted post sea king fight, he's a top tier bro.
+ Show Spoiler +So a loser character with a great sense of justice is top tier ? Alright,
Please. Hes a joke. I dont hate him, I just dont see the appeal in calling him a top tier character with so many awesome characters in that show.
Also Saitama doesnt have any special powers either that we know off.
So hes the anti saitama in that hes basically try hard chivalry lolz and still useless. He exists to make better characters look good and so people can self plug and relate in some way. I guess thats whats happening here. + Show Spoiler +Are you kidding? A loser? How the fuck is he a loser? Not everyone can be a demon-threat destroying hero, but licenseless rider is the #1 C-ranked hero for a reason. Because he does what he can without having any special powers. Calling him useless is honestly like ignoring the fact that he's doing a LOT of hard work offscreen and helping a LOT of people. Do you really need to save the world to be a hero? No, you don't and that's the fucking point of his character. He's much more of an averageman hero. There's a reason he's also a popular hero, because again, he helps a lot of people all the time off-screen.
The series isn't about him or his daily life so the only time you see him onscreen is when something supernatural or something far beyond human capabilities is happening, which is far beyond what he can help with, but he still wants to try saving even a single person if he can. And that's what makes him admirable and what makes him an underdog character, and people fucking LOVE underdogs.
And saying saitama doesn't have any special powers is a joke, of course he does, he broke his limiter as already stated. That's his power, that he has no limit on what he can do. He can run as fast as he needs to, punch as hard as he needs to and so on. + Show Spoiler + I wouldnt really call that a special power for Saitama, its more like he has enhanced abilities, but ok, I dont really care to argue that.
Right, im supposed to like LR because hes a Mother Teresa with all the good he does, like saving kittens from trees and finding a little girls teddy bear. All of which isnt even in the manga, I know what kind of character it is. Its generic as fuck and is just there to make losers feel better.
People also really like Sweet Mask infact hes like the most popular character in that universe and hes vile as fuck so I dont really see the mass appeal argument working here either.
I dont see why your defending him so hard, its not really that big a deal if I dont like a useless kitten rescuer on a bike. Its a very generic, easy to make character, heck even his model is a sentai on a bike with a helmet. + Show Spoiler +There to make losers feel better? What the fuck are you even talking about? How the fuck is an underdog character there to make losers feel better? People simply love underdog characters and he provides contrast to the rest of the characters where many of them have the abilities to do far more heroic things than he does but many of them don't.
People also love King, yet king is truly a loser. He's a loser through and through and his character is meant to be pathetic.
Also comparing licenseless rider's popularity with that of sweet mask is fucking idiotic. Sweet mask is an idol that also does hero things, his public image is good while he's infact a rotten person, we know this as readers, so why the hell do you compare their popularity when you know the same isn't true for licenseless rider?
And i don't see why you're patronizing his character so much, why can't you just accept that people like something you don't? Licenseless rider was #2 in the character popularity poll after the sea king arc and even in the most recent popularity poll with him having no screen-time people still ranked him to #5. Why is that? Because people like his character. It's okay, you don't like something most others do, i get it. + Show Spoiler +I did accept it dude, I have no problem with people liking the character, but its a lame character. Your free to think otherwise, since LR holds such a special place in your heart. But its a lame character and exists because higher level characters are harder to relate to.
Its nothing you havent seen before in xyz manga hundreds of times. Atleast dudes like Metal Bat are fun. Honestly your breaking it down so hard your taking the manga way more seriously than you are supposed to imo. OPM isnt amazing because of generic fuck characters like LR its great because of Metal Bat orr Sonic or even Garou.. the side pieces have their value but they dont make the manga. + Show Spoiler + "Yeah, well, that's just, like, your opinion, man." Telling people that they're free to think otherwise but that he's still lame even if they think otherwise is pretty much saying that you think he's an objectively lame character, when clearly many people disagree with you.
Also I'm not even breaking it down or analyzing it, i just read the story, this isn't even taking it seriously. Realizing that characters exist for a reason or realizing why others might like or dislike a character isn't taking a series way too seriously, it's something most people are capable of doing if they read the story. You started all of this by saying you don't get the appeal of licenseless rider, which is why i have tried to explain it to you. Most people are able to understand why others like a thing even if they don't like it themselves.
And i certainly don't think the manga or webcomic are great because of licenseless rider. He's not even my favourite character, nor is he close to being my favourite character, so i don't see why you're implying he holds 'a special place' in my heart. I just think he's a solid character and i understand why to a lot of people he's their favourite character next to saitama.
+ Show Spoiler +When I said I dont like (sorry not LIKE I meant to say GET my bad its really the same thing tbh) the appeal I would have expected it was pretty straightforward that I was talking about the character and his role in the manga. I didnt need a rundown of "why hes supposed to be awesome" I know those things and I dont find them appealing qualities.
And although I think the uses of these terms are silly he is an objectively bad character. Hes bland and generic. If you like generic bland characters then enjoy, again like I said I'd rather not have the popularity and other people like it thrown in my face when the character is made to appeal to idiots. And we know there are plenty of idiots in the world.
Either way, the character is a pathetic tryhard with zero impact and deserves no adulation whatsoever. If you like that sort of thing. Good for you if other people like it good for them.

Also offering me internet meme shit isnt really an argument but if thats your style. I guess I can see why you like LR.

On Licenseless Rider: + Show Spoiler +Iirc I found him to be pretty annoying during the Sea King event. His attitude feels try-hard more than natural and I think it's necessariy for such a character to feel naturally exerted to be likeable for me. I can still see his appeal but I also find it quite surprising that SO many people had him as their favourite. I didn't expect that kind of appeal to be so mainstream.
/wow, that escalated quickly.

And i wasn't using it as an argument, you're just patronizing and arrogant as fuck, so you're clearly trying super hard at not liking a thing, i felt you deserved an award for not liking it.
And again, i just think he's a solid character, he's far from my favourite so i don't see why you keep implying that.

Because once you know that I understand the character and what its about, you dont have to keep explaining it to me like you did. Once was enough.
Im not really being arrogant here tbh. Its a pretty straightforward assessment if you've consume enough media. If you dont like him that much thats a terrible way of showing it btw.
Your defending him to death and then covering your tracks by saying you just think hes solid. + Show Spoiler + Give me another trophy please this time with an arrogance meme or something. Btw I havent really been personal at all in this discussion so calling me arrogant as fuck is somewhat rude if I may say. Did I make you mad ? Ive seen alot of fucks in your comments.I dont think posting on edge is advisable.

Defending him to death? Lmao, and covering my tracks? I think he's a solid character and if i had to pick between like and dislike then i like him. but he's not my favourite character with a special place my heart like you're implying either.
And yes, thinking everyone who doesn't feel the same way as you are just dumb plebs with uneducated opinions who simply like things that appeal to the lowest common denominator is being pretty fucking arrogant. Which is basically what your posts seem to be implying is how you feel about it.
E: Ah, a literal 'u mad?' Nah buddy, i'm not mad, i don't get mad because someone dislikes a character on the internet.

I didnt say anything about dumb pelbs or uneducated opinions. But lets be honest here if your going to offer mass appeal as one of the more concrete reason's as to why something is good then I really dont have much to help you with.
If your going to offer me trophies then you should expect similar responses and tbh dont ask me just have a third person read what you are saying and ask them if you seem worked up or not.
I think your taking this personally because you feel like I am implying that you fall in this "dumb plebs with uneducated opinions" category since you clearly like the character. A category that you kinda made yourself btw. I just said the character was generic, lame and appeals to losers. There is nothing wrong with being a loser as long as you can kick off and win. But consistently being shit and just trying hard is annoying.

I didn't say he was good because of mass appeal, at all, i said that people liked him. And infact that a lot of people liked him. It wasn't an argument for or against his character. All i said was literally just: + Show Spoiler +"Licenseless rider was #2 in the character popularity poll after the sea king arc and even in the most recent popularity poll with him having no screen-time people still ranked him to #5. Why is that? Because people like his character." Again, nothing about this making him a better or wose character. I mean fubuki almost got #1 on the most recent character poll and she's a character i don't personally care much about, but i don't think people that do like her are dumb because of it.
But what you're saying is: "he is an objectively bad character. Hes bland and generic. If you like generic bland characters then enjoy" "I think ill live with not liking something that appeals to the lowest common denominator thanks." "Its generic as fuck and is just there to make losers feel better." "Its a pretty straightforward assessment if you've consume enough media"
You very much seem to be implying that anyone who doesn't feel like you do is being a dumb pleb. You aren't outright saying that, but that's essentially what reading your posts feels like.
I'm just gonna stop replying here, you don't like a character, that's great. I can respect that, but i also feel like you should be able to respect that others might feel differently than you do without you saying that they are the "lowest common denominators" or "losers" because of it.

Yes so Im not wrong in that assesment. If thats what it feels like then sure. But tbh if that even is the case and you dont care all that much I dont see why you need to defend their honor so hard. So the logical conclusion for me is that you felt it was something closer to you then you are letting off. Thats all I am going to say on this matter tbh.
I respect people who dont like things that I do and like things I dont.
I am not particularly fond of mech for example and Ive outgrown harem comedy's aswell accept the occasional season. But I dont dislike either because they are bad.
But LR is like the epitome of everything thats gotten stale with the medium so if thats solid then man. I dono..

God Eater 8?
+ Show Spoiler +So probably found out they doing some secret shit that's most likely dangerous to everyone. I thought it would be some Halo-esque emp thing they were building. I mean if you are going to introduce us to some life saving project on a secluded island and not going into detail what it is then it's gotta be bad. I am also confused because I thought the scientists were the one that somehow created the Aragami(still could be) but they had them shits popping out of the ground all over the world which mixed things up.
Owarimonogatari
+ Show Spoiler +45 minutes of talking texts, head tilts and inner monologues to introduce a blast from the past, probably a ghost aragami girl who Koyomi will save. I kind of expect tons of shit to happen this season because it is right when Koyomi is about to graduate. Chronologically it is before Hanamonogatari and I wonder if they will talk about where Meme went. Along with other things.

What should I be watching this season? I have almost no taste and I drop stuff within 10min if it seems like shit. Also, if Sent suggests me anything I will inadvertently troll him about it.
I like funnies, bloodies, and loveys.

Try some of the terrible shorts this season. If you drop them within 10 minutes you have at least seen 1/3 of the season.

AW MC is actually not terrible besides being fat and a pig (literally, but somehow not at same time), which I'd take over another random generic dude.

Though apparently they are ditching Chrome Disaster arc and going full original, not exactly sure why.
That's good news! I enjoyed Season 1 (more than SAO / Log Horizon) maybe because it didn't try anything complex : simple story, simple setting.

So far the most legit ones are Utawarerumono Itsuwari No Kamen, Comet Lucifer, Heavy Object and One Punch Man IMO. Though I also had good laughs at some of the trashier animes so they weren't necessarily the ones I enjoyed the most.
Also lol@Miragee. There was one short that was like 3 minutes or so... :D So that's true.

I watched 3 shorts, each with a runtime of less than 3 minutes. :D
//watched the first episode of Haruhi now. The MC is right up my alley. Feels like a less elaborate version of Watashi (actually of both Watashi's I know...). This is going to be funny. :>
