Ok, so because I don’t like DBZ, I am not allowed to like other anime?
What kind of dumb gatekeeping is this?
DBZ is shit, slow and boring. The battles all look the same, just different things exploding. It freaking takes forever for something to happen.
God, I saw an entire episode where the only thing to have happened was them drawing names to see who they were going to fight in the tournament in the next episodes. 20 minutes with absolutely nothing happening. How can people even enjoy that shit? Any other form of media would get blasted with people calling it boring. But yet anime and DBZ get a pass?
I know it was a joke, I just don’t like how people treat DBZ as some sort of de facto anime every anime enjoyer must enjoy. It goes beyond that single comment.
I got triggered, because I really dislike DBZ and can’t fathom why people enjoy it.
It isn’t just DBZ either, any 1000+ episode anime only gets that far because of the extremely slow pacing and constant flashbacks: Naruto, One Piece, …
Netflix proved how much faster it can go when they remade One Piece. Since they skipped all the fluff and went right to the important and fun bits.
Maybe I’m just getting too old and would spend my time with fun things rather than wait an hour and a half for a character to do one special move. I can watch an entire movie in that time.
I said that because DBZ is well known enough that even people who don’t like it, like you, know what super saiyan is. If DBZ didn’t exist I’d have said something like “if you’ve never unnecessarily explained what Pot of Greed does, you’re not a real anime fan.”
Completely agreed… too bad the fans below are frothing at the mouth and aren’t taking your comment for what it is, a rational take on a bullshit anime.
If you’ve never tried to go super saiyan, you’re not a real anime fan.
Oh good, as long as I don’t watch Dragon Ball Z I’m not a loser… Whelp, back to Rent-A-Girlfriend!
you are no match for my complicated hand gestures jutsu

It was clearly a joke.
does a Naruto run to leave the conversation

It’s the one that lets you draw two cards.
You seem to have been really triggered by that innocent and random comment. Would you like some mint tea?
Maybe they’re trying to get fired up to rage into ssj?
That’s is what it looks like when a Lemmy user goes super saiyan.
This is the kind of thing that people get made fun of for in school
Who cares? False self?
Can I offer you an egg in this trying time?
Woah there, I’m pretty sure that was a joke.
“I’d like to speak to the manager. Now.”
Yep, this is it

I want to upvote you for disliking anime, but must downvote you for abusing the word gatekeeping.
I want do downvote you for being a douchenozzle, so I did.
Freedom!
