| OP, if you can't find any good anime from the past 5 years or so, then...well, I was gonna say "you're not trying hard enough," but you clearly aren't even trying at all. |
 This glorious signature image was created by @Mayumi! I am the Arbiter of Absolute Truth, and here is my wisdom: "Anime was always influenced by the West. This is not news. Shoujo is the superior genre primarily aimed at young people. Harem/isekai are lazy genres that refuse any meaningful innovation. There is no 'Golden Age.' There will always be top-shelf anime. You should be watching Carole & Tuesday." |
| My exact reaction to your tedious question: If you don't like any anime from this century, then maybe try finding a new hobby. (don't worry, we won't miss you) |

SurprisedKyou said: What else is there to explore in it? I have played VN and except for some bad endings, the show pretty much adapts everything correctly.Kanon: After Story Also, please no more Key shit. It will most probably will get horrendous pacing like Charlotte and Angel Beats. However, I am interested in the Angel Beats VN. I didn't like the pacing and overall plot of the anime but the characters were pretty fun. |

| Its not animes fault that you're only able to see the shitty surface of anime. If you would dig deep enough, you will find good anime, theres no doubt. And yes, that includes the recent ones as well |
| Oh great, another one of these posts. |
     |
| Good anime never left. It just diminished in how many there are. |
    |
| Anime is the same as It always been. There will always be good and bad anime. There were shit anime in 90's too you know , They just don't get mentioned since they've long since forgotten. |

 |
| I heard that Vento Aureo is very popular in Japan so there should be an anime adaptation coming soon, don't worry. |
| I lost hope in this medium after hearing that SNk s2 is only 12 ep Boycotting half assed adaptations is the only solution to make good anime back |

tragedydesu said: I lost hope in this medium after hearing that SNk s2 is only 12 ep Boycotting half assed adaptations is the only solution to make good anime back Yeah because not downloading free episodes from HS is oh so going to make Japan care about what you think. |

| @John_2001 @SuperRed lol i know i cant change anything only people in japan can do a lot of things to change this medium |
|
| But we had to wait 4 years for Attack on Titan, they better not make any mistakes with those 12 episodes they have. |

| reiwa weebs will unironically tell u they want a remake or sequel but when they get it ,its suddenly souless and a cashgrab cause they dont like the thing anymore and cant fathom they grew out of it and must mean the show somehow became bad |
| Take a break watch some hentai. Come back. Suddenly all anime looks really good by comparison. But yeah. ummm I don't know what to say there mate. You have watched a lot of anime. I would assume you have gone though all the normal growing pains anime fans do. Sometimes your tastes need adjusting as the times change or you should just go back and fill in older anime. I mean, I waited 6 years for anime to be "good" again for me. But strangely enough, I actually enjoyed several titles from the 2010s just yeah not as much as I enjoyed the 00's. And I was watching more anime than I had previously from those years. Digging through bad anime to get to good anime. But, over time, I have definitely learned a lot about my tastes. How to look at the advertising and tell if it is for me. How to look at the hype and tell if it is for me. I am even looking at animators and writers now. Because there is a style to this. Doing genre explorations. Individual artist explorations. Studio explorations. You will expand your knowledge of anime when the seasons look like crap. And you can return to the masses when anime looks better. |
The anime community in a nutshell.  |
| Good anime (or any other media) comes when the country that produces it is in a good eeconomic state, meaning that they have money to fund more experimental works that aren't guaranteed to sell well, this is why nowadays we get a lot of anime that appeals to the lowest common denominator because they need to make the money back. So, good anime will come back once Japan's economy recovers from the last crash at the end of the 00's. |
 |
| Is anime dead? Has the industry become devoid of talent? Why does nothing come in 4:3 aspect ratio anymore? How come such a small percentage of this age's shows are good, when way back then, Sturgeon's law still applied butIdon'trememberthatbecausemynostalgiaisfocusingonthebestpartsofthegoodolddays? |
| How did i miss the weekly thread about how every anime is shit these days ? |
 |
| Anime is still just as great or potentially better. I'm sorry you don't like cute girls, tons of people do. The things you describe as making anime bad are completely subjective, and most likely more people prefer them than dislike it. Do you think about bad old shows as much as the good old ones? I would not like anime at all if everything was similar to that late 70s early 80s Gundam / Crima drama stuff |
| I don't care. |
| You're in luck OP, Attack on Titan returns this year |

You asked me so Ill nitpick some. I tried not to comment on the ones I agree or havent seen/finished. |

| hi |
| @GamerUnglued Holy fuck im retarded. I forgot to check but your mean score is 7.23 so its only natural that you consider many of these shows 8s or above. Even if I disagree with some of your points im too lazy to write up and it probably wouldnt change a thing cause were using totally different scales. Have a nice day :) |

You have a mean of 5.92, which makes me question if you even like anime at all, unless you just try to watch everything and therefore rate a lot of things with low scores. While 90% of everything is trash, that includes stuff like shorts and stray OVA's which do make up a decent portion of your ratings and not my ratings which also helps to explain things. If I watched and rated stuff like 1 and 00:08 for fun than my score would be significantly lower, not to mention if I watched and rated everything that comes out in a given season instead of ONLY the stuff I think I will like. @GamerUnglued Holy fuck im retarded.

Even if I disagree with some of your points im too lazy to write up and it probably wouldnt change a thing cause were using totally different scales. Have a nice day :) If anything it only means youre unable/unwilling to use the rating system as intended but as the nice guy that I am I searched for some posts in one of these topics(cause its been done hundreds of times) and copied it for you; Pullman said: Why do people think it's a more realistic conclusion to think that someone watches anime while literally hating everything he watches than to simply consider that for them the ratings mean something different than for you? 60% of this site don't use the scores with their intended meanings and opt for only the upper half of the 1-scale. Some people just do it the other way round. It doesn't really matter at all. Scores only are relevant in relation to each other in the first place. Nobody can tell what you really think about a show just based on a number, and everyone who thinks they can is a retard. In that sense someone with a low mean score who at least uses the whole scale makes better use of the rating system than the 6-10 only users by using it to maximum effect when it comes to differentiating between the various shows he watched and how much he liked them. He might just be splitting up his favorites from 7-10 where others only fill their 10s with it, and then work himself downwards with 6 being good, 5 being decent, 4 being okay 3 being meh and 1 and 2 being shit. Suddenly a 4 mean score means about the same as a 8.5 mean score for a 6-10 only rater. So yeah I'm continuously impressed by how arrogant and presumptuous people can get about this topic. They want to point their fingers to people and shout 'dumb elitist, you don't like anything, silly fucker!' or something along those lines instead of rationally thinking about how the ratings might be intended for even one minute. It's really not that hard to come to the conclusion I came to. And there are countless other ways to use the rating scale in your own way. Some result in a high mean score, others in a low mean score. But that doesn't mean it shows who likes and who hates anime. The ONLY difference is how they apply the rating scale, not how they feel while watching a show. Do you people really believe that the number you give a show changes ANYTHING about how much you enjoyed yourself? Do you really need that to trick yourself into believing you enjoy everything so much more than other people who enjoy a more diverse set of ratings with a lower mean? The number means shit, someone who gives a show a 1/10 might have enjoyed it more than someone who gave it 10/10 if the latter person just hands out 10s for everything and the former person actually had a lot of fun watching something terribad. I really think this logic of 'I enjoy anime more than you because I rate higher' is utterly retarded. If YOU need to rate everything highly just to convince yourself you had some fun, that's your cross to bear. Many other people are aware that the number they attach to a series will not make any enjoyment they felt while watching disappear (or magically appear). |

| No, there won't be another LotGH and probably not another FMA:B or AoT either, but anime like GitS come out every season if you're into that. Plus some new shows like ERASED (not an acronym :p ) and Assassination Classroom are quite fun if not 10 material. A lot of it does depend on your attitude going in; are you sure you're not just bored of watching anime and could use a couple weeks break? Plus, based on your list there are some classics you haven't seen yet. Maybe you should watch a couple of those and then catch up once spring starts? The new anime isn't going anywhere ;) tl;dr find something to occupy yourself until spring, either with old anime or something different |
