your thoughts have summoned this post from hell so, as i pray... Home > Archives > 2008 > October > 26 The Fight Against AnimeIn an amazingly good show, DS of Daijoubu has announced that he is fed up with how shitty bad anime is. He has issued a call to arms, and has requested that everyone do their best to back him up in his holy war. One of the things he does in his post that is most unfortunate, however, is that he calls on me as though I need to mobilize. Does he not know? I’ve been waging this war on my own for years.
Here you can see DS’s original post, annotated by yours truly.
DS says some big things, and he’s pretty vehement, but personally, I’m not entirely convinced. This is a new stance, and he has just about no experience dealing with bad anime (maybe he can see Haruhi’s shores from his back porch). I, as someone with a long history of battling anime, would prefer it if someone with more dedication were to take command. I’m not going to say that I am most fit for this role—I know there are haters greater than I—but I would expect someone with at least half as many credentials to step up to the plate (as opposed to someone with none). Without further ado, I present unto you my credentials: LK’s 26 Credentials as an Anime Hater
Exhibit C
Exhibit J
Exhibit U In Conclusion…
DS isn’t Kamina, but that’s no reason not to keep rowing. Bad anime is the power and your hatred is a hatred that will—argh, you get the picture. |
it is moist & delicious meta and it's not even a lie! 8 ResponsesLeave a Comment |

Like all things, there is a need for bad anime. After all, how would we know good anime if there were no bad anime?
When the population of bad anime starts to grow too large. This is when, as bloggers, we need to highlight the shows that stand out (good anime). (like the best show ever, Toradora!)

@Baka-Raptor: as you like it.
@j.valdez: there would still be a relative bad, and our standards would increase. I see no problem in there being more anime at or above the level of current “good” shows.
@Omisyth: I’ve been watching Romeo x Juliet, does that count?!
