Finish or Fail: 2016 Anime Shows #4

I'm glad to get this much about Dimension W lol, that show gave me a lot of mixed feelings, mostly bad in complicated ways.
I had a lot of problems with that "cute girl" too. Her personality was weird and she kept just being a blob to be pushed around and stepped on by the main guy, yet also she did some good action stuff randomly too. Her relationship with the main guy felt super weird because he mostly treated her like trash since he's racist against robots, but it kept switching back and forth if he would act that way, or forget and act like less of a douche, and of course she's always yelling "I'm a girl not a robot!" I guess that's kind of obvious that Oh he just needs to get over his racism and be partners and w/e, but a lot of the time he was a huge douche to her and she didn't even bat an eye.
I felt the way she was constantly oversexualized and all the fanservice butt shots were even more awkward because of the main guy's age, idk if he was supposed to end up seeing her like a daughter or what, since part of her plot is about her being a good daughteru, but she was always just being displayed at creepily perverted angles and poses sooo... why? Was the main guy supposed to be attracted to her? I don't think so. I know some fanservice angles are inevitable but it's like, ok we're at a new location here's 10 shots of her butt and now here's where we are. Like who is that for, no one acknowledges it, she's usually not aware of it nor doing it on purpose, it's just in the way, and like you said shoving it down the audience's throats. Just... with everyone else being like a decade older than her and more adult vs her being kiddy it felt creepy.

9:40 LOL

For dimension w I only saw a small bit of the dub before the TV and cable broke at my home. So it was cool but I dunno overall how i feel (since I only saw a few episodes) about it. I wasnt turned off but i wasnt entirely sure if it was ok to continue

Dimension W is the pyrite of cyber punk anime. Sounds good until you really look at its content and realize it's just a thin sheet of recognizable voice actors and good animations over an empty plot.

I\m getting whiplash from all these jumps.

I was watching this show while I was in class, the my headphones poped out of the port right when you dropped the F bomb on max volume. I didn't get in trouble, but it was still so embarrassing!

Haven't watched the video yet, but seeing Kiznaiver in the description made me curious, so I went ahead to Digi's mal to find out how much he gave it. I was shocked. I haven't watched the show yet, but it's really weird how sometimes, everyone shits about a show while Digi likes it, giving it an 8. This was the same deal with Mayoiga I suppose.

god damn it Digi, just watch Osomatsu-san already.

Blegh. Sorry Digi, but could you please stop using Autism as a way to describe social ineptitude, that's really not what it means at all. Instead, couldn't you just call them socially inept?

I can understand where you are coming from, but what you describe does not apply to everyone who has autism. Its a spectrum, saying someone has autism really doesn't say anything about their personality, skills, or capabilities. Say, consider the fact that people can be un-diagnosed from autism, not because they 'grow out of it', but because they learn to manage their problems. So maybe if you were more specific when describing the type of autism and the type of person who has the autism, as opposed to just saying "awkward like an autistic kid".

Don't take this the wrong way Digi, you didn't necessarily do anything wrong, I personally find it a little disheartening to hear people use autism as a way to define people. Thanks for the video, I love your stuff.

Mob Psycho100 - where is it?

Talking about the themes in the Luluco segment was almost nostalgic because I feel like all your main channel videos now are either broad anime meta or about the craft.

I really enjoy Digibro's content. It's insightful and his opinions are entertaining, but his tastes and enjoyment of anime seem really pretentious at times. It almost seems as if he can't enjoy a show that doesn't try to be unique or something new (unless it's a slice of life show with cute girls), but just wants to do something well and be good at what it does like Nijiiro Days for example.

"This show is basically the Breakfast Club as told through the lense of Cabin in the Woods." Digibro on Kiznaiver.

I don't think I've been mindfucked that hard since I was told Kill la Kill was an allegory to Oda Nobunaga's conquest of Japan.

I think he only likes Kiznaiver because of the author and studio... wait strong 7 to a light 8 ? dude the show was trash I give it a 3/10, only liked the OP and backgrounds but everything else was dumb asf to me

Well the Durarara light novel does continue past what the anime has adopted. So the other stuff might have more meaning in the continuation.

Durarara is amazing tho I don't know what's going on and I spend as much time looking up who's online name is who's on the wiki as I do watching each episode xD
