    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.

    Not inherently but I hate most anime tropes. Most anime are also very childish or straight up nonsensically bullshit, just “too out there” if you know what I mean. There’s the odd decent one though, and the rare gem, but I can’t really be arsed to wade through the absolute pile of garbage first to even find them.

      Im with you on this. I don’t dislike anime/manga as a medium. However, there is a tendancy for the format to exaggerate things I find annoying. That and the fan culture, much like many other highly dedicated fanbases, can be a major turn-off as well.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    Used to love anime but now that I’m older I dislike it. Still love reading manga, just hate the high pitch annoying ass voice for every female character. A few anime’s don’t do it and those ones I still love

      I’m an artist and I used to draw a lot as a kid. I naturally adore the medium, but most anime is weeb/otaku fanfare and I find obnoxious. I keep a look out for the gems that occasionally come around.

      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

    I’d say I’m just uninterested, not dislike. The part I hate is when I see people dedicate their whole life into them and fail to function as a normal human.

    Vtubers on the other hand, I absolutely despise. They are basically YouTubers/streamers with an anime character and get much more views for no reason. I guess that’s free market for ya
