"If we're gonna create cancer, I don't want the cancer to spread."
That is the best phrase I have ever heard and I'm know gonna start using it.
Angus Jameson joey is so brave taking on all the cancer himself
Too bad people have already started commenting on the article
thats some sasuke shit... xD
Lol. I wanted to comment about that phrase too but you beat me to it. It's awesome to be sure.
and that is medically efficient too, cause if not for metastasis, cancer can be cured easily. that'll put them in benign tumor type.
I like anime, but I don't join any of the fandoms. They tend to ruin things that I like most of the time.
Every fandom has this. Cod, Naruto, Rick and Morty, and etc. Every fandom works like a body. It grows and sometimes has tumors. It just depends if it's malignant.
Yu Yu Neko Daisuke True dat.
Good on ya; most of the people I talk about anime with are my friends who I knew BEFORE I knew they liked anime: that's my community lol and this channel, 'cause everyone here seems pretty chill
I dont mind fandoms as long as I dont dive too deep to the negative sides and if I can fix those negative sides. If you are lucky, some awesome people in fandoms can be considered your 2nd family sometimes.

Why can’t people just enjoy whatever Anime they want without being assholes to each other?
Thunder Goku because we can't have nice things
Psst...joey is part of the problem.
Kayla Gaines It’s pretty ridiculous how some people look down upon someone just because of a show they watch. I have a lot of friends that like things I don’t like and that’s completely ok. They have their own set of tastes and so do I, but we’re still cool with each other, regardless.
jsCP94 How so? I’m actually asking here
Thunder Goku He's just butthurt because Joey didn't praise his favorite anime.
If two elitists disagree on an anime, which is the elitist?
Both of them you just said it yourself dumbie
Frost he should say "elitist"
the anime.......
Alex Couch oh yeah
Alex Couch both
Ah, but you’re forgetting the ultimate anime fan. The casual elitist.
You’re not allowed to call me out like that
Omg, it’s a hybrid!
It's all just tribalism. Speaking only with people who like HxH and mocking people who don't have Berserk in their top 1.
I was like that, you were like that, that's normal. Just enjoy watching anime, it's not your personality.
"Oh, you've never seen naruto? I bet you're not even a REAL anime fan"
@@Cieln0va I've met so many people like that.

T McK
Lol XD
TO BE FAIR
those are GOOD anime :)
totally spies is also a good anime :)
Morty is best waifu.
This article is basically the sentence "Your opinion is incorrect"
..."And you must agree with mine or else I'll call you an annoying fanboy."
this is so true anime elitists are annoying as hell
Mei Misaki66 you are right
Mei Misaki66 "your opinion is shit"*

Me: **actually kinda likes Naruto after reading volume 1 of the manga**
Elitists: *_how dare you_*
Naruto was pretty good, I stopped watching it after pirating the most exciting episodes and scenes tho.
All I do when talking to elitists is telling them their taste is trash.

This reminded me of something that happened to me in college. I joined an anime club my freshman year, and was a member for my entire college career. It was my sophmore year there and a bunch of us were chatting in the dining hall. One of the guys asks me if I'd seen a certain anime (I don't remember the name). I said I hadn't. He asked me about another one. I hadn't seen that one either. So now he looks at me, with this stupid judgemental expression, and says "oh, I guess you don't watch anime much then?"
...
Are you shitting me?
I don't know 2 anime out of the thousands that exist, and that means I don't watch anime? Mind you, every weekend the club gets together to watch an anime and I rarely miss it, and we regularly discuss anime during club meetings, many of which I am vocal in. So, ignoring all of this, because I haven't seen these 2 anime, I must not watch anime.
Then he made it worse, because when I expressed to him that I did watch anime, just not those 2, he then asked me to name 10 anime I had seen, like I had to prove myself before he would accept me as an anime fan. At that point, someone else in the club got on his case and he got all huffy and left. Even after that though, he'd make really snarky comments about me. If I was chatting with someone and they asked me if I had seen something, he'd jump in and say that I probably hadn't seen it "because I don't really watch anime". It got to the point where some newer club members treated me as though I had only just discovered anime and hadn't been watching since middle school. When I would make really in deoth comments, people would react with shock and express that they hadn't thought I had seen that anime. It was so frustrating.
Oh my god, that is *fucking* annoying, what happend after that, did you leave the group?
I would've smacked the shit out of him omg. Or at least speak to the president of the club to talk to him or kick him out. This is toxic behaviour.
Ugh I hate people like that. I was the president for my school's anime club in my senior year as I was the only senior in the club at the time (and the teacher wanted the president to be a senior) and I have anxiety and depression so it made it hard for me to try and get people's attention during meetings and take charge of certain tasks and such, which resulted in 2 or 3 people (I don't remember the exact number) thinking I didn't know much about anime and that I shouldn't be president. Like, in the end I did do a decent job as president as I did think of fun games to play in the club and I did make a Kahoot game full of anime trivia so in the end they realized that I did know a lot about anime.
This pissed me off so much
There isn't an anime club in my school and out of my 30 classmates only 3 watched a fair few. The guy that did watch mainly focused on shounen. A girl focused more on reverse harem and romance. The other focuses more on slice of life.
I dived into action, fantasy, shounen, some shoujo, some slice of life, some drama and romance.
And although I couldn't talk about stuff like Hyouka and corpse party we had some pretty good discussions about shows we both watched.
Watching Obscure Anime = Elite
Obscure = no one knows you
Elite = Obscure
*ROASTED*
Ninja Scroll the anime movie: 1990's= Well known anime movie. 2017= Obscure anime.
so a=b b=c therefore c=a......well done.......
he did better than you
Aye👌
Luk Yat Ming his reply wasn't even a roast tbh doesn't even make sense
"Endless bukakke of arrogance" yeah I'm stealing that line.
I purposely paused the video to look for this comment. XD
Mary Kate McCann glad I could be of service
Read this just as he said it
I started watching anime in my mid teens.. Im now about to enter my thirties.. Never been an elitist.. Maybe because I was never really into the niche anime, I'm mostly a mainstream guy... I like them, they make me happy and are enjoyable to me.. Just watch what you like and ignore the haters..
I just became so sad when someone labelled Amira as Illegal I was so upset over this and nearly felt like abandoning Amira x Favaro but after this video I am ok
Same, I just started watching the top rated animes in order. It's a bit hard cause of the genre jumps, but it opens up your mind to what's so appealing about the community to casuals.
And honestly, me and my cousin have massive differences in anime taste, but she got me into my hero academia, which I never would have watched if she didnt force me to watch it. Not my favorite, but it's fun af to talk about it with my friends. Anime is fun :)
@@angelinsartandcomicscookie2455 Let them dickheads take their fedora and eat it
I will watch whatever the fuck I want whether it's some caveman painting or attack on titan
Mainstream anime = not necessarily a shit anime
like BASIC COMMON KNOWLEDGE
Obscure anime = Not necessarily a bad anime too. We need a video showing the opposite spectrum here too. Because just like elitists, I've also seen casuals use this certain logic, "anything that is not mainstream battle shonen or Romance, therefore less popular = bad. Because popular = good"
Yeah maybe there's a reason it went mainstream, you know?
@@bloody4558 I think most people refuse to get into those types of animes cause you get less of a fandom around it. Sucks when you watch an anime and you try and talk about it to your friends and NOBODY knows about it, and they dont seem interested to get into it with you.
Couldnt make my friend read Beastars the manga, but when the anime came out she was all over it :") Like bruh- why??
@@flor9345 I am from the late 90s too early 20s era and back then in every one used too recommend everything . Nowadays we don't do that anymore because reasons.
@@bloody4558 Yes, DBZ, Naruto, AoT, JoJo, MHA, DS, Bleach, all of these fan bases also face the same problem as elitists and they've been covered but the reason elitists are frowned upon more is because unlike casuals they don't stop to an extent and learn to understand other opinions they continue and even start cutting deep into people's personal lives to make themselves feel like they accomplished something, that's the problem with elitists

nyanveshika It's aimed at teenagers.
It seems its intented for like it's for at least 15 year old's but oki :3
But still, it's definitely not for kids, like pokemon and doraemon xD
nyanveshika yeah
nyanveshika but it is. Ratings in japan are different from the rest of the world, something like aot is primarily watched by 13-17 boys which is pretty young (shounen) while in the us they would be watching shit like rick and morty or something, and even younger people spongebob and shit

15 years old makes someone a teenager. I’d know. Im a teenager. And im 15..

I had a group of elitist friends who basically ruined for me everything..I wasn’t able to enjoy a book or an anime or a movie if it wasn’t up to their standards...we aren’t friends anymore and I’m finally enjoying my anime in peace
"If you could pick to have any sort of skill set, surely it would be an elite one like medicine or law, over something like cleaning?" No, because medicine can be gross, law is infuriating, and they're both very complex. I NEED the ability/patience to clean. I haven't been able to use my closet for about 7 years.
That's not a joke. I keep all my clothes in a suitcase that sits in front of the desk which is also unavailable to use.
Help.

"Bukkake of Arrogance". The Best Phrase of 2017. Period.
Next step. Try using "Nakadashi" with "Arrogance".
Selenium Glow Nakadashi is a facial, correct? Bukkake kind of includes that, cause who just ignores the face? Nothing's better than firing one off on her face, and she's got one eye closed, licking anything that got near her mouth. Now that is how the brakes fall apart.
Nakadashi is... cream-pie... I'm so not comfortable putting in the English equivalents on chats and conversations. ^^;
Also, that description is Ace and boner inducing. Good line.
Selenium Glow I shoulda known that after all the... research I've done over the years. But yes, and a good ol' shot in the cooter never hurt anybody during that act. Unless it was her first time.
I just looked up what "Nakadashi" is.

Don't be an anime elitist, Be a hentai elitist !
To be fair, current made hentai anime is pretty bad in quality. if you care about quality, by default you'll be a hentai elitist lol.

Yeah...it's hard to find a everyone only talks about futanari or loli or NTR
tentacle grapes for casuals!
This should be a thing. Let's share it!
What I find frustrating about the article is how hypocritical and contradictory many of his statements where , you just like pointed out .. I not apart of any community like messenger board or reddit . So I haven’t had any discussion about anime .I admit I used to be bit to sensitive in general to opinions . If somebody tell’s me that they don’t like some thing I like , I question myself “ do I have bad taste/judgement “? But I have also realized that having different opinions make for a great conversation like you stated in last part of the video. If everybody had the same opinion , then it would be boring . I admit I’m not very good at expressing my opinions and do that I would feel timid around people that argue “ what !! , you like this x anime !? Lol “. You made a good point in one video that just because someone doesn’t like the same anime , should’ be taken personally because it doesn’t mean that you have bad taste/ or that you are a terrible human being lol. I agree that also most people started out with main stream anime like Naruto , Attack Titian , Pokémon etc . It because it mostly accessible BECAUSE It is popular . Instead of making fun an person that hasn’t seen obscure anime , then INTRODUCE them to. I think Naruto and other know anime is nice way to get into anime. That’s how I got into anime ( okay the first anime was Chobits and Fruit Basket , but you get my point). When you first start drinking , you go for something easy like beer or wine , not straight for tequila or pure vodka 😂
the part that bothered me the most is when the article said something along the lines of opinions being wrong
I feel like everyone has said opinions about animes and there's me:
I like every single anime I watch. I'm that type of person who doesn't give 2 shits about what their watching. I like every single anime I've ever watched and I've watched a lot of anime in the past 18 years of my life.
same bruhh
ah fellow TRUE men of culture i see
This is me in a nutshell. Like other people look at it and critique it and then there's just me like ┐(´ー｀)┌. I enjoy everything and if I didn't, I probably dropped it. Anime is for entertainment purposes so I'm just going to enjoy it and not care how shit or how good it is.
you like every anime that you have watched?
I would like to have your superpower dud
@@eldoodlez4362 - That's probably because you haven't dug through bargain bins over the years.
I think I lost some brain cells from this article...
It's okay, you can borrow some of mine
I would offer some brain cells if I had any left.
Aside of being an Anime fan I'm also a diehard Metalhead (which is the single most elitist group of people ever) and I can say that Elitism does nothing but alienate people from getting into metal music. Or at worse, they engage in violence to drive people away (I'm not even kidding) and then the same elitist complain that "everyone loves crap" or "I have no one to talk about the things I love" when they're the first to drive people away by being pedantic, toxic and assholes. so, yeah don't be an elitist love whatever you want, be open to other opinions and share the experience. Be it Anime, Games, Music etc, because the best way to enjoy something is when you can share it with people.
TheSlayFer Ch. T. I know that feeling man, especially with the "metalcore isn't metal" thing
Yeah I mean if I could name a more elitist community it would be the metal community. People that defecates on you for listening to Megadeth, Testament and pretty gateway metal. It's a shame that such good stuff like metal and anime is plagued by elitist assholes who have sand in their anal cavities.
Yeah, I hate the metalhead community for that. I find them mostly sexist too, which just gives me all the incentives to stay away. It also feels like you're not allowed to like other things that aren't "metal." You're already kind of a "weirdo" for liking metal, and then the community makes you feel like a weirdo amongst weirdos.
I feel you so effing hard, man. Like Metallica? You generic piece of shite. Anthrax? How old ARE you!?
Yeah, its needlessly toxic and promotes eltism, and I love Metal to death, but the "Trv-Kvlt" elitist can honestly kiss my ass and fuck off forever, no one should tell you what you can't or can hear or shame you because of it.
My first anime was sailor moon and pokemon but being young at the time didn't know it was called anime because it was on cartoon network
jessica moore I'm so happy I'm not alone! It took me way longer than it should've for me to figure out that Pokémon wasn't "ours" in the US and was Japanese. Granted, I wasn't a devout Pokémon watcher either. I liked the cards more than the show.
I also don't think it hit me fully that Toonami was Japanese anime until I began to also watch anime on Adult Swim. Toonami's DBZ (the main show I watched on the program) stripped all the Japanese songs and replaced them with English ones which made it harder to realize it came from another country. Adult Swim though kept the original openings and closings, making it easier to finally come to terms that this glorious animation and storytelling...unfortunately belonged to a country "across the pond".
I never even watched Pokémon until I was 12. My first anime are Doraemon and Ranma 1/2 . Yeah, Ranma, no joke.
I didn't know about pokemon, but i coulda sworn toonami was relatively clear about the shows that appeared on it being from japan...basically, i knew sailor moon, dbz, kenshin, tenchi, etc were all japanese but took me a few years to know pokemon was...i think. I mean i didn't have internet until like 2013 so i MUST have been taught the word "anime" from toonami xD
god now you're making me doubt my own memories. am i even real? are we in the matrix?!?!? fffffffuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
...i'm not hearing a "no" on us being in the matrix. when can i expect to have kung fu downloaded into my brain?
Hahonryuu I think I'm giving myself too little credit then. In fact, digging up those old memories, I'm actually certain I did know it was Japanese anime...it's exactly why I couldn't tell anyone at my school that I watched it for fear of being more of an outcast than I already was. Looking back now, the fuckers wouldn't have liked me regardless so I was honestly losing nothing. Talk about years wasted worrying about something so trivial, lol.
Anime man: you can like whatever you like.
Someone: i like SAO
Anime man: your free trial of living has expired
Yeah, low key the anime man (and many anitubers in general) get very hypocritical. For example, in his video where he roasted people on their anime list (MAL), at the beginning of that video he literally said “You’re allowed to like and dislike whatever you want.” One minute in, he sees someone give Fairy Tail a 10 and says “Aw, bro your taste is shit.”
What!? Didn’t you literally just fucking say that we’re allowed to like and dislike whatever we want, only for you to then completely turn around and insult people for genuinely enjoying an anime that you think is not good, and label those people’s taste as “shit?” That’s almost exhibiting a superiority complex among your audience and exposing your bigotry.
The problem isn’t him liking or disliking the anime. The problem is his hypocrisy and behavior in which he expresses how he feels about those people’s opinions. That right there is why I can’t truly respect his opinions and just respect him as a person, when he’s going to be a hypocrite and insult other people’s opinions.
And you could only imagine how that’s going to influence the people that are watching him (considering the fact that he’s basically the most popular anituber), and how they’re now going to think *Oh, well if the anime man and all these anitubers say the same thing about this anime, then I guess it’s true.* It’s very immature and downright hypocritical in my opinion.
@@code-xgamin1109 that is true. That is why newbie anime fans should take connor's (cdawgva) example more. "Watch it and make your own opinion of it"
@@code-xgamin1109 that is why the podcast is so much fun. They have connor there to keep them in check
@@steampunkofgondor2619, I see. I’ve heard of CDawgVA before, but I’ve never actually checked him out. I only know him from the trash taste podcast you’re talking about. I’m guessing that based on the way you talk about him, he’s not a hypocrite like the anime man, right?
@@code-xgamin1109 yeah he's not. He's a pretty straight laced guy. If you've watched the trash taste videos you will know what i mean. Them disagreeing with each other is the heart of the trash taste podcast and although Joey can sometimes be a hypocrite i still love the guy. But yeah if Joey says something is bad or boring his following will immediately avoid the show or manga without trying it. And joey also says he's not an elitist. He's not a toxic elitist but ill be straight up lying if i said he wasnt a bonafide elitist
Anime Man: you can give your own opinion on an anime no matter what other people think about that anime.
Me: I Like SAO
Anime Man: What have I done ⊙﹏⊙
To be fair he admitted to being an elitist
Sao is not a bad show I just everyone hates on it just because they think it’s overrated I would give sao a 6/10
Anime Samurai yeah kinda agree with you, a lot of ppl have never seen SAO but they jump on the bandwagon anyways. BUUUUT, SAO kinda deserves it because the plot and the characters are very lacking. It does do some things well though and honestly ppl need to watch it first before they bash it so that they can understand the actual reason
Kendrick 6o5 ya i feel like after the first season the show really went down hill I haven’t watched the newest but I’m hearing good things about it
@@samuraiman7858 it's hyped as shit that's for sure. And it's pretty good too, especially the latest episode
As you said Variety! I've been watching anime for over 20 years and watching how the community I love has grown has been a blessing.
I love finding people with different tastes if everyone had the same taste anime would be stagnant and boring.
Great video.

I’ve watched anime for 8 years and here’s my top 5 favorite anime:
1.Saenai Heroine no Sodatekata
2.The World God Only Knows
3.Seitokai no Ichizon
4.Monogatari series
5.Made in Abyss
Honorable mention: One Piece
How is my taste? I want to know the opinion of my taste from someone who have watched anime for 20 years xD
Jia Jun Sim Great or good shows in my opinion but ultimately the only opinion that matters is your own. Made in Abyss blew me away this year and Monogatari is my number 2 at this point.
Joey is now Jesus
...fuck.
He died for our anime sins !
Ben Gates *ahh*
Kyrie Animeison !
TehBrackShiip well ok then
ABP Will ayy
The coolest type of enthusiast is one that is inviting. Especially to people who are new to it who show some interest but only know the entry level most popular stuff. They have no idea what the medium has to offer and it's the nicest thing ever when someone more experienced chooses to show them the way in an unassuming, welcoming fashion.
When you try to shut someone down for liking something they enjoy, that will never convince them they are wrong, or that you are cool or smart. All it might do, if it influences the other person at all, is keep them from wanting to further engage in the community or the topic at hand in any capacity because it's unwelcoming and toxic to share their honest opinions.
Thinking that you're better than anyone else for your own preferences is a sign of insecurity and overinflated ego, and in general a complete lack of understanding of the subjectivity of personal opinion. Being inviting and enthusiastic about your interests is a great way to make friends who you can nerd out with about your favorite stuff. Everyone wins when we include each other instead of being snarky elitist.
Anime isn't "your" thing. It's for everyone who is willing to give it a try. Be happy you're not alone and that there is a community to engage with in the first place.
When Matthew started talking about himself in the third person I died inside.
Yeah that sort of trait should be saved for characters like Dr. Aki from Medabots.
There was this kid in my class that got me into anime he showed me all of the cool good anime like One Piece and Naruto he was a great friend. Until one day I figured out he was an Elitist, I watched all those great shows and eventually he showed me some other lesser known anime. I didn't like those shows and eventually he was saying that I wasn't smart enough and old enough to understand the shows. First off Im older than him and he's got f's in a lot of classes. I went to his house one day and all we did was sit there swing some of his katanas and watch anime that was extremely crap like really bad. After watching more anime I got into a lot of better anime like cory in the house and boku no pico. Also I think he's dead now from eating too much and poking himself while swinging his 8 katanas.
Mitchell Clark Okay, this did not go where I thought it would and I love it, lol!
cory in the house is overrated.
TENGWEI WENG
Cory in the House is more obscure, you have shit taste
SORRY
I heard that its obscure just because the translation, the original Japanese version is not that hard to understand.
Just dont give a fuck.
Almost as if on cue as soon as Joey said the word cancer an SAO ad popped up.
Although I liked SAO (except one or two parts) I find that funny
"... endless bukakke of arrogance."
The most beautiful words I've heard thus far
Are you cheese????
I had a phase hating on mainstream anime and am so glad I learned better.
Recently, someone called me a noob (really, a noob?) for watching the anime I do now, but I know he isn't worth my time.
Watch what you want to watch ♡
How I find new anime:
*Go to searchbar*
*Type in; Anime episode 1*
*Randomly click a series*
*Never leave my house again*
good idea 😂
Why is this actually kinda smart wtf
I found Burst Angel like that
@Internal Monster Because you'll end up having to watch at least 1 episode of a series which you won't like at all for many different reasons. You might not even like the genre and click on it. How I find new anime is usually through anime recommendations of my friends, youtubers and through MyAnimeList, just searching the top 1000 for series I might like.
So far there has been like 1 to 6 animes I didn't like using this method (I say 1 to 6 because one was absolute garbage (School Days) while the others just didn't fit my tastes) out of about 130 animes watched.
I really don't think that clicking random is a good option like 80% of the time unless you enjoy pretty much anything.
I’ve been watching anime since I was 4 years old, It started with One Piece, and now I’m in college....and I still fucking love it. You’ve spent your years watching anime? I spent my life!
Jonathan Isip I must ask, don't you get borer?
I stop watching pokemon when misty left.
Jonathan Isip same here, I start watching anime when I was 5. Now I'm 20 yrs old.
@Orderly Disorder
First: I love your username.
& Second.... Did you hear any opening intros while *IN* the womb? That's pretty hardcore. Sadly, I only discovered anime around 11 or 12. (I'm 26 years old now.) But my -overprotective- *paranoid* parents were against Pokemon when it first came out... Cause "OMGZ POCKETDEMONS!" -__-
I find it ironic though that my first two anime were Vandread & Ai Yori Aoshi. Two very fanservice-y, funny but inappropriate faceplant-in-boobs with-dramatic-sexual-tension, harem anime.
Vandread = ALL THE BEWBS. Cause men haven't seen women in 100's of years and think "Women are monsters. And men were once used as their playthings" (Cause history books apparently never happened and men and women had their own planets.) But three guys get taken prisoner by lady pirates. Main character being a hilarious yet unfortunate-timed-moments type, and more than often faceplants in boobs, or is too curious upon first seeing scantily clad lady's butt: "What IS this?" and poking said lady's butt only to be slapped in return.
The irony on Vandread is that my MOM found it and said it looked interesting. So I had all the fanservice, drama and _totally age appropriate_ humor, but ... *"NO POKEMON IT"S EVIL"*
I'm watching Indigo League now since I've seen some of the newer ones, but wanted to see Pikachu and Ash first meeting and Pikachu being a dick to Ash. But yeah. I got the rated Teen to Mature level fanservice when I was 12, but no Pokemon. Seems appropriate, am I right?
..Apologies for the wall of text. But that's my anime story. xD
I love a bunch of genres and varieties of anime now. I have collected a bunch of series throughout the years. I both finished and loved Ai Yori Aoshi & Fan... _ahem_ Vandread. And bought the DVD box sets when the only video rental store with anime was closed down.
You ever thought about... rewatching One Piece?
Anime elitists are basically like those people who brag about liking something before it was popular.
This was beautiful I shred a tear at the end :)
I have quality taste in anime. I've seen the highly acclaimed Camp Lazlo AT LEAST 13 times.
Thanks for likes guys!
Ami Richardson yeah didn’t that show got canceled
Sadly
Ami Richardson. *applauds*
👏👏👏
Camp Lazlo is an overrated piece of shit. True great minds watch and extract philosophical tropes from Johny Test
Ozone Strike Nah bruh it's all about that Regular Show😂
It's same for music
+Sami Bari It can be applied to anything really. Movies, TV shows, games, books, food, animals, vehicles, religion, etc.
Ikr my first experiance with twenty one pilots fandom was through an elitist
I don't think hentai elitism exis... oh wait.
Mittz The Trash Lord Games
Omg metal elitists are the worst
Great editing btw, really emphasizes your point 👌🏼👌🏼
i've met a bunch of elitists on the internet and most of them call popular anime overrated, and they haven't even watched it yet. it's annoying as hell.. they always say "it's overrated because there are other anime that deserve more" "it's overrated because it's popular" like, NO. i kind of think i might be wrong, but i think those "overrated" anime are popular because of it's good story. these are just my personal opinion, so no offense to anyone
That right there
You are forgetting one other elitist, Joey:
*People who think everything is a Jojo reference*
The Weeb that isnt elitism thats just dumbass memeing
Darly Hernandez lol
Everything IS a JoJo reference.
The Weeb is that a jojo reference
Darly Hernandez - Elitism of *MEMEING*
My friends in high school used to call me an anime hipster because I had (and still haven't) seen any of the mainstream anime that everyone knows (Pokemon, dbz, Naruto, One Piece, Sailor Moon, basically any anime that aired on tv) I think because I never watched those series I ended up being an anime elitist for a long time. Nowadays I don't have much time to watch anime, but I've come to accept that people still like those shows, and there's nothing wrong with it. Turns out I'm just not a shounen fan.
I haven't watched any of those, at least not seriously (watched a bit of pokemon and digimon when I was like 6-8) but I still consider myself a shounen fan and not an elitist. I'm not that interested in watching those shows too but also accept people who do, everyone watches what they want to watch.
ゴヘグデーイリサ
Im not much of a shounen fan either
Thank you ^_^
I like all of those lol XD but i can understand that everybody does not have the same taste.
And that's perfectly fine. Heck, one of my good friends is not a Shonen fan at all. And there is nothing wrong with that. Love what you love. We all are people; there are things that we all love and dislike. We just got to acknowledge those differences. For me, yeah; I love Shonen battle series and still do. But I prefer Shoujo and slice of life stuff nowadays. Seinen, I tend to be picky, but there are some good ones out there.
Great video man. Crazy how much people judge each other over thousands of things already, to add otaku-lifestyle to it. I am proudly a casual and happy. I enjoy my anime and manga choices. I don't care other people's opinions and if someone asks me for a recommendation I will give it.
i am binged watching videos of The Anime Man ranting and fighting. it's quite an enjoyably thing to do even though i have different opinions to some stuffs.
Being an elitist doesn't mean that your opinion is always right. Elitists are people who think their 'correct' opinions grant them the right to be relatively right. There's a reason opinions are called opinions. THEY'RE NOT FACTS.
Try getting them to understand that... It's impossible.
Well I've encountered many anime fans and this is what I realized.
Stages of being anime fan
Casual --> Elitist --> Doesn't give a fuck anymore.
I'm on the last stage now. I watch what I think is good/great and don't give a fuck to the haters. I understand that people can never have the same opinion on a matter and I respect that. We can't have the same brain anyway so why argue in a medium of entertainment?
Jan Sen Fabian i am too. I am in between stages really. Now my only elitist opinion is "give this a shot at least before turning it down" because you need a basis for everything. I won't expect someone to like what i like. I EXPECT everyone to be open minded and try it at least. How would you know you don't like it without trying it?
Eh, people are gonna people. Fighting is kinda what we're good at.
When I started watching Anime I started with Sailor Moon, Inuyasha, Rurouni Kenshin and Slayers and honestly let people have their own opinions. I know that my opinion about my favorite anime differs from others but its still ok to have them anyway.
6:24 is definitely Nuxtaku he makes the most basic shounen sound like masterpieces by solely focusing on their good traits
But hes funny
is tHAT NOBLESSE ON THE THUMBNAIL?!
OMGS IT ISSSSS AAA
Yep it is
XLucyX oh its you, i see your comments everywhere
SCREEEEE it is!
Wait is it? It looks like him but also doesnt
He speaks truth.
No no.
He spits truth
He orgasms truth
XD
Reppin' that City Seeds Bank t shirt, the anime man exceeding high expectations as always!
Pfft... casuals. I bet you've never even seen anime classics like Euphoria and Rance: the quest for Hikari
Rance is high tier anime
Indeed. The 4 minute special in particular is sublime.
I'm not watching a show where they shit in mouths
Im elitist, I watched Digimon instead of Pokemon
Yuwa Yawa tbh i myself a "filthy casual" that grew up with underrated animes shown on my tv when i was a "little cunt" found out it was better than most mainstream animes such as pokemon and dragonball. Meaning i can relate to what the so called "elitist" we're coming from.
My advice: Feeling of Nostalgia for anime such as old-school type of anime does not make YOU an "Elitist"!!!
My god... hes truly a god among mortal weebs...
Creepy Masked Dude don't take his comment too seriously dude. Obviously he is joking around
I watched both, beat that, plus like I even watched Pokemon when it still had Misty and Brock soooo 😂
Ariff Rahim You've taken it the wrong way lol... I didn't took his comment seriously! In fact, I agreed with him. I just explained and summed it all up to anyone who don't get his sarcasm..
me- "Anime was a mistake...."
**watching anime**
...all day
humanity is mistake so they make and like mistake :V (welp kinda)
Cool
Well that is surely a mistake lol
You said “open mine/your mind” so many times every time you said it all I could think of is the vine “Open Your Minnd...” hopefully u know what I’m talking about XD
I used to avoid mainstream shows like the plague because I felt cool knowing about shows that not many other people didn’t. But it was isolating and now I try to balance my search for obscure series with more mainstream stuff so I could be part of the conversations. For example I love Darker Than Black and Akudama Drive but I am also loving Demon Slayer and Jujutsu Kaisen,
7:21 is this guy... seriously being an elitist about elitism?
like, he's literally complaining about "casual elitists"
I don't consider myself as a casual nor an elitist.
I tend to watch around 20 anime / season (even tho recently it's cut down to like 5 because RIP *university*), and I rarely comment about my opinion on any show online. Because no one asked and therefore no one needs to know. That's it, that's all.
Emilie Lee i understand and if You do people Will probably shit on your taste😑
Emilie Lee lol, me i just am about to finish secondary school, so its gonna be anime galore for me for some time
OMG MORE PEOPLE LIKE YOU PLEASE
Agreed, I don't consider myself a casual nor elitist and watch like 12 anime per season.
Emilie Lee same but in highschool 😅
Watch this has actually made me realize that one of my friends in high school was an Elitist. She would always turn her nose up at anime that I found entertaining and enjoyed and wouldn't let me have my opinion on who I preferred who in the series. It had to be her way or the high way and that's why I would get so pissed off at her and at one point I wanted to stop being friends with her because of her shitty personality when it came to the shows that I liked (yes, I'm a fujoshi when I shipped two guys instead of her favorite girl character and one of the guys from my ship, she would get pissed and try to force her opinion on me, it was extremely irritating and made me want to slap her since I never dissed anything she liked. She just didn't like the fact that I didn't agree with her)
I started watching SAO and fell in love with it, right now I'm watching SAO Alternative: GGO, Darling in the Franxx, and Fairy Tail and I hope I stay an anime casual the rest of my life
Bruh, your hair looking wackier than SAO Season II
Abc Xyz sinon is hot tho
Never said she wasn't...
Liverpool Academy FC 😂😂😂😂
To be fair you have to have an high IQ to watch anime..*insert the rest of the copy and paste Rick and morty meme here*
pickle morty
How exactly do you have to have a high IQ to watch anime?
Chris Kitchen Because apparently, you need much smartness to watch half-naked cartoon girls bounce around on the beach.
Chris Kitchen (it’s a meme. Look up rick and morty iq copy and paste meme)
T McK Riccle Piccle
I just discovered your video and I can't help but agree with you.
Since I'm a slow learner, I discovered these aspects while I was in some fandoms, and it irks me to see such elitist thoughts when they obviously don't know everything.
Thank god there are still people with some common sense that exist on the internet.
anime elitist is basically dunning kruger effect in a nutshell
Man u draggged him enough i dont even have to go roast him 😂😂😂
Joey and fellow anime fans, I would like to share a thought about objective reviews and elitism.
If you really think about it, and I mean actually think about it, "objective" reviews are really just well thought out opinions, meaning they are still subjective and personal pertaining to the one person posting and it might be shared by others. Simply put, "objective" is code for a complicated subjective opinion and there's no reason to believe anything that is said by any critic to be true. So with this mindset, any kind of elitism is now a dead and meaningless spot on the Internet.
A good reviewer/critique tries to stay neutral in the actual judgement department.
They will also give their own opinion at the end usually.
Because there are definitely aspects which can be judged "objectively". In other words where everyone would agree on.
An example would be that an battle OST in Bleach wouldn't fit a sad death of a major character.
Plus reviews are obviously more focused on the overall quality. Many don't include the entertainment factor which is why I have to agree with you on this part:
Reviews aren't there to tell you if you should watch/like something but to get a general idea of the overall quality of a product.
I was dead tired as I wrote this, so if I didn't make sense somwhere feel free to insult me.
Tetsu Baer It's a yes from me on the first part in saying that if for instance an aggressive music track that sounds like it belongs in a fight scene doesn't belong at someone's death scene is totally right. It should definitely be critiqued by a reviewer, but on the off chance that that particular moment was liked by someone, then it shouldn't be judged too harshly in the review and be kept in a neutral state. Being neutral is really hard though when it comes to anime, since there are older anime out there or maybe some of the more unpopular and hated choices to stay ultimately neutral on.
'objective' implies that it's based on observable fact or can be compared to a generally accepted reference value, to borrow some science jargon. Basically it means that any observer looking at the anime would see the same thing. 'subjective' implies that what you see changes depending on factors not based on tangibles. So it would be objective to say that a series uses such- and- such style of animation. But it would be subjective to say that using said style makes the anime more popular/enjoyable/romantic/whatever. So 'objective' implies something more than just a complicated subjective opinion.
SGN gmail Yes, I totally agree. My original comment was more about objectivity being brought together with the elites who have "superior" opinions and them acting like we should listen to what they have to say. They twist the definition of objective and make it seem like their opinion is something we should put on a pedestal and study, like a work of art in a museum. Granted, there are definitely things you can grade objectively, but for the most part I view them as systematic subjective opinions since you can put personal in-depth analysis into it. (Meaning that it is you who holds this view on a certain point) An example: One person can say "This anime's story is phenomenal, I love it." in a very well written objective analysis and a reader who saw this post and the anime that they are mentioning might disagree with the post and write their own objective analysis stating, "This one moment is great and all, but there seems to be an overlooked plot hole." Or something along those lines.
(So you can see that objective is sometimes blurred with subjective opinions, meaning people mix up the definition and it messes with what a reader might be looking for)
To conclude, I believe that opinions that hold objective value are welcomed, but it's also great to read about someone else's view on the wide spectrum of opinions a certain topic could have.
SGN gmail "a generally accepted reference value"
So if I am not mistaken, part of the definition of "objective" implies something subjective has to be determined in order for it to work. In the scale of things, subjectivity is the more important opinion; whether we're talking about a whole community or one person, the people make it count the most. And since there are so many people in the world, we can all have different tastes and opinions.
I don’t think I am a elitist but I mainly stay away from super mainstream stuff Bc sometimes the hype kills the show a little for me as I set my expectations too high.
Article: but elitism is a good thing
Me: *instant face palm*
"elitism is a good thing"...untill you find of a more elitest elite that consider your tastes shit
I got an ad on this video, ' sword art online is coming to mobile'. Pls no
Take a look at this mobile game elitist
Some are good.
I got SAO Legend ad
FD3S Amman something other than sao memory defrag?
Bleach doesn't even cut it for this article. Oxi Clean. Gets the tough stains out.
I feel like some mangaka should do a parody manga of bleach, called oxy clean...
japan, get on this now!
hell one of the youtube abridging teams could probably do a better job than some anime studios...
I legit laughed out loud at this, idk why this is not top comment.
ninjaguy2511 Because by the time people reach the comment section, they have already passed out and been carried to the poison control center.
This is great and i love the fact people have differing opinions on anime i have found alot of anime i enjoy and new perspective on anime i use to watch
I remember when i was a young little weeblet. I found an elitist in an top 10 something anime list that said the fruit of grisaia should be on that list and anyonme who hasn't seen the show isn't a real anime fan. Thanks to this vid i remembered it and can say for certain that I actually came across an anime elitist and survived.
Do you know what that guy needs.......Flex Tape!!!!!!!
THAT'S A LOTTA DAMAGE
JUST SLAP THAT ON
FLEX TAPE ISNT STRONG, YOU'RE STRONG, PHIL!!
I SAWED THIS BOAT IN HALF!!!
jon burbach That's a colander Phil.
"judge anime by its synopsis, not by what other people think of it" is what i have found to be a more unbiased way of watching anime. If you look at other's opinions and base yours on that then you're subconsciously going into that anime without an open mind. At this rate, you start looking for flaws and over react every time you see something which was pointed out by the reviews you read earlier. You'll also start ignoring the positives of that series to some extent and usually not enjoy it as much. And to all anime fans out there, here are a few points of advice before you start shoving your opinion down other peoples' throats and telling them the classic "you're favourite anime is shit!" bs.
1. It doesn't matter how many anime series you have watched, your love for anime should NEVER be measured by that.
2. Each and every individual is entitled to their own opinion and you have absolutely no right to tell them otherwise. I'm not saying you can't voice your opinion, but trying to get above by pushing everyone else down is just downright wrong.
3. People like what they like and you don't have to like what the majority of people like. Yo don't have to be a fan of Naruto, Bleach or One Piece but that doesn't mean that you look down upon those who do like those series. The same goes for anyone who doesn't like less well known series.
I am sick of hearing people complain like 5 year olds about this kind of crap. I don't expect everyone to be friends but you ain't gotta be at each others' throats 24/7. (and no, my occupation is not that of a teacher).
Anime Nerd Forever I never even listen to anime reviews.If I like the theme,I will sure as hell watch it.
I didn't like the first episode of shingeki no kyojin but then one of my friends was gushing about it so I gave it a second chance. Still don't really like it but it's got some good points to it.
So I mainly listen to someone's opinion in order to give an anime a second chance.
Yeah. Watch any anime you take an interest in, whether it's popular or not. It's fine tho watch popular and not very popular anime.
thats true I won't hate an anime because a random asshole on the web raged about it I always watch a few parts of it on youtube and read the synopsis before watching and even after watching I ignore totally review I only read them or watch them when I'm bored and I think that "objectivity" for a review is a bullshit concept for me a review is just a random opinion nothing more but I hate elitism people that judge fans are the most annoying *cough* dxfan619 subscriber *cough*
youve said learner driver more in this video than i have in my entire life xD
8:00 that sounds like fandoms when someone says a (example: hetero) ship is good and other people say that they can’t ship it and bash it and then turn around and say that anyone can ship anything 🤦🏻♀️
He sounds like a Rick and Morty fan.
To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Rick and Morty. The humour is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of theoretical physics most of the jokes will go over a typical viewers head. There's also Rick's nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation- his personal philosophy draws heavily from Narodnaya Volya literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these jokes, to realise that they're not just funny- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Rick & Morty truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the humour in Rick's existential catchphrase "Wubba Lubba Dub Dub," which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenevs Russian epic Fathers and Sons. I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Dan Harmon's genius wit unfolds itself on their television screens. What fools.. how I pity them.
Tfw you're a Rick and Morty fan. ; v ;
I love rick and morty but the fanbase horrifies me
I heard there was an incident related to the fandom at a Mcdonalds regarding Szechuan sauce. Is this true?
Yep
Anime community has the most elitism? ANY ONE INTO ANY KIND OF MUSIC WOULD LIKE TO HAVE A WORD WITH YOU. Seriously, from the musical theorists to the casual "I like Taylor Swift because she gets me" fans.....music elitism has been around before anime was even a fucking thing. Like.....ancient times.
DravenUrei true. coming from a metalhead myself, the elitists stated you need to listen to metal ONLY and if you listen to other genres like pop, indie, rap etc, you are considered a poser.
DravenUrei there are also elitists gamers too elitists are in every community and this minority is annoying and ruin the community
This is actually the first "roast" video I've watched of Joey's that is an actual roast.
I liked it.
"OH WOE IS ME" LMFAOAOAO i literally cant with joey
*Watches half the Video.*
One Sec. *Pauses*
*Vomits into a bucket*
Okay, I'm good now. *Play*
Cameron Beach give me the bucket
Same
It kinda sounds like... the writer's talking about himself. 🤔
EDIT: Just reached the end, I freaking knew it, he IS talking about himself, just not admitting to it. And he used "normalfag" just end me.
This Video is already kinda on the older side for taking part in comment discussions, but I want to leave my two cents anyways since I somehow overlooked it until now.
I think most people would consider me a rather experienced person in the field considering the amount of novels,Manga and Anime
I consumed ever since I grew up with Sailor Moon, Eva and so on. I'm binge watching all kinds of Anime every day to a degree where I have
to admit that I really have a hard time remembering even the titles for more then two weeks at best unless it's something
I really like, think has some outstanding trait or has more than 12 episodes to make it more memorable, keeping me busy.
Therefore, you might be able to guess I really like Anime and all the stuff this "elitist or not guy" mentioned.....I watched all that stuff as well and I honestly believe that
there are shows which have much more dept, better animation, better story telling, better character development, more complex and well thought out plots etc.
than for example a show like Naruto. That's because Naruto had a certain budget for each episode and was created with the intention to be appealing to a certain audience.
Of course that's no excuse for it's many weaknesses. However, despite knowing all that I still watch my favourite episodes now and then, simply because it's fun and because
some fights still get me all pumped up, even though I've seen them probably a 100 times.
What I want to say is that you can be totally addicted to battle shounen stuff without any requirements toward the audiences' intelligence, while also watching and appreciating
shows like LOTGH. I'm always hyped for this battle&magic stuff, isekai? Count me in!
Does it mean I don't know about the weaknesses these shows have? No........
Does it mean I watch nothing else? Hell no......
Just like many others I'm watching this stuff because it might look awesome or because the action heavy parts make it hard to even sit still
due to the excitement and immersion in the show. That's something I would never get from a "seemingly higher quality show".
Therefore, i think these shows are very valuable to me, while these "better shows" make me enjoy them on a totally different level.
Besides, the "dumb casuals with their dumb shows" are making Anime popular all over the world, giving "us experienced superior elitists"
the chance to get our "high quality niche stuff" because the industry makes enough money and reaches enough people to make it possible to
produce such Anime in the first place.
Well that comment got really longwinded, sry guys. Whatever.....just do everyone a favor and don't look down on ppl for their taste alone.
Be nice, try to educate new people by introducing the "better" stuff to others but don't be a bitch. Even if they are fanboys who are unwilling
to accept the weaknesses of "their" franchise, let them be. Tell them your opinion and don't hate cause that won't change their mind either. Rather promote other
shows you might think are good and make them fanboys of your stuff. That makes for a bigger audience and gives you the chance to get more of the "good stuff" in the future.
Ok that's it I guess. Hope I got my point across despite not being a native english speaker, really got a wall of text there. :D
reaLityyy tl;dr?
come on man, can't you sit through even a half a minute max. comment?
anyway, i totally agree with you op and wish there were more people like you in the community. this hypocritic war of elitism and casualism is the last thing we need in this already niche community
Read your whole comment and...
PREACH! I entirely agree with this, it's good to know that there are other people who see this the same way I do.
So true.. I agree with you
Sailor moon, dragon ball, Pokémon , yuyu hakusho and Inuyasha spark my love for anime, I like mainstream anime too 🤷🏻♀️
Those ARE mainstream anime, though...
