    Well the art of Asterisk War looks nice at first glance, though I didn't give it more than once glance.

    I've generally enjoyed a sort of generic anime art style.  I'm not really looking for experimental art styles.  I don't mind them per se but I take them all on a case by case basis.

    As for the show, I've had enough experience to know that just because a show isn't well-written from a critical standpoint or doesn't strictly-speaking have good plot consistency doesn't necessarily mean I won't enjoy it, though, because I tend to let my imagination and emotion get into things which allows me a lot more ability to enjoy something.

    "harem" and "tournament" are bigger turn-offs for me, actually.

    Incidentally I know even less about Mayoiga.  At least with Asterisk War I have some mental pictorial representation of it.

    Well my point with that is that it's honestly a fairly cookie-cutter show, from art to all the girls throwing themselves at him to the action. Like, one-third of the first season is taken up by the Phoenix Festa, and a fair chunk of the second season as well before they move on to other stuff.

    As someone who doesn't necessarily mind harem stuff, my bigger issue was with the lack of personality from the main girls (not that the supporting characters are much better). Also large boob jokes, no less about a 13 year old. Like I said, not very creative and certainly stuff I could see you taking issue with.

    But, yeah, there you go.

    The premise of Mayoiga is about 20some people going to an abandoned village to get away from society.

    Edit: ^ Not that I am one to berate those, like you, who like that sort of generic style. But it's definitely symptomatic of its issues, if you catch my drift.

    Well to be fair I've only had one series I've actually truly dropped.  And it was one that I stopped watching by accident (other stuff happened in meatspace) and I just never got back to.  Though when I was watching it there were various points I wasn't enjoying myself but just kept going because the episode was still playing.

    Aside from that it's either been stuff that I dropped because I didn't like what I saw at the beginning (e.g. Assassination Classroom, Humanity Has Declined) or stuff I watched all the way through.

    I can't easily think of a comparable situation though.

    I guess if I get too many boob jokes or such I'll probably just drop it after an episode or two.  I mean, I basically reacted that same way to the bits of Konosuba that I watched, as well as Witch Craft Works, as well as Vividred.

    ...actually Vividred I "dropped" after seeing the trailer lol.

    I guess there's also the "this isn't very interesting" reason for dropping something.  I did this with Lucky Star, and probably would have done this with Yukikaze if it weren't just five movies.

    Heh, fair enough. I'd go to bat for KonoSuba, as an aside, though pretty easily see how its style of humor wouldn't be your thing.

    I drop pretty frequently, and pick up pretty frequently too. I've been teased as having Anime ADD for a reason.
  • glennmagusharveyglennmagusharvey
    TBH if I were dropping things for little annoyances I'd have dropped Beyond The Boundary.

    ...which turned out to be an excellent story.  It just needed time to tell it; it needed time to go beyond first-impression reactions to the superficial traits of the characters.  And then it really started to shine.
  • glennmagusharveyglennmagusharvey
    But yeah we're talking about me as an anime fan, where I can enjoy Naruto not for its writing but for the fact that it has lots of neat jutsu that could make for an interesting SRPG.

    (I did that for a while when a friend watched it.)

    Also @glennmagusharvey, the same woman who did the series composition for AKB0048 (which I remember you liking?), is also involved in the composition for Mayoiga, which might be of interest to you.

    "Series composition" or (music) composition?

    Because music composition for AKB0048 was done by a Polish guy named Slavek Kowalewski.  Meanwhile, AKB0048's storyline isn't really its strong suit.

    So, really, beyond the superficial qualities, he's not much like Trump at all.

    If there's any cartoon character that's like Trump, it'd be Montana Max from TTA. I wouldn't be surprised if he was directly modeled on Trump.
