Well, first time Accel World viewers will need some RAGE repellent for the second half the show, so I'm not sure what to say about that.
Except that, yes, we really should respect anime viewers who haven't read the source material yet. Me, I'm not really bothered with spoilers, I just want to see the source material animated, that is all. |

It's so very irritating to watch a show, and then be met with an enormous change writing quality as if either all of the good writing was canned or they decided to actually try and do something good. Edit: As an American, I honestly think it's hilarious when they have stereotyped Westerners that suck at English but speak fantastic Japanese. The instance of them being good at English but poor at Japanese eludes me, however.

Though maybe the Manga/LN people think they are being ignored. I mean only a few selected ANIME can get subforums here, well because this is "ANIMEsuki" after all, but still...

A series doesn't have to have a subforum to have a parallel manga thread. There are also threads about manga that have no anime adaptation. Given the structure of AS, there is no good reason for manga readers to spoil anime threads. If AS has a Prime Directive, it is the Spoiler Policy.

Completely agree with the topic on this page. Keep the manga stuff in the manga threads.
The OTHER thing that really annoys me in anime, and I think I posted about this in another thread, is when the male character is called a pervert and/or beaten when an unfortunate accident happens. However, I'd have to say the sole exception is MM! where the male actually wanted those sorts of things to happen and liked it, and made for some interesting comedy. Endless "It was an accident" Soul

I think that the only pet peeve of mine with anime is when the ending leads to confusion. You get super in depth with the story and then the ending leaves a cliff-hanger that seems out of the blue. I've only experienced this a couple times but it is still slightly annoying when your left with a mystery of what happens next in the storyline due to an "abrupt ending" in the series.

I know you would say that. I only wish people just stop flaunting how shallow they are.
I'm not talking about you of course. If you like thin MC's, that's fine. I like thin MC's, too. What I don't like is too perfect MC's with flaws that do not affect him whatsoever. |

If I heard people at least saying that his character was not an "archtype" but a very interesting character with a very interesting personality, then I may have watched it... but from what I heard he is another of these "suck-up-to-what-the-others-tell-you-and-never-oppose-them"-characters which sadly make up over 90% of shonen protagonists.
Sadly Kirito does this too, though at times he can put it aside. If now Asuna (and Kirito's cousin, forgot her name) just weren't such aggro-type-tsundere I may have REALLY loved SAO, but no... there has always to be a reason to make it fall from 10/10 to 7/10. In short, I cannot stand the relationship most MCs have toward their allies/friends.

It often seems like anime writers/producers, even of adaptations of complete series, don't seem to have a clue how to satisfactorily end a series. Coupled with this is the tendency to force fit an ending onto a story that has actually drifted towards a different ending.
No specific examples, mostly a trending feeling on my part.

On the other hand, it does show to me, from what I've seen is that the author of that and SAO, Kawahara, is about as subtle as a warhorn when it comes to storytelling. I'm afraid he does nothing for me beyond interesting premises and some hot female characters. A exceptional studio like Sunrise could salvage more, A-1.... And that would relate to something I really don't like about anime.

Well, it certainly isn't an absolute on how things go. Attack on Titan is super bombastic and kinda stupid in places but it's high energy and has clearly defined characters that keep my going. It does falter when it goes slow. Monogatari is also a series that is really stupid but when it catches the flow, I don't mind the shallow caricatures of characters or in your face fanservice that the show loves so much. However, when it slows down, it's -_- On the other hand, a series like Code Geass, I absolutely cannot stand to the point to I wonder if it's supposed to be a comedy simply because I find all the characters to be obnoxious cretins. Even if it was the point.

Bumping this topic because I have a new pet peeve and since there are a bunch of people that have been watching newly released anime for over a decade I figured I might as well bring it here. When first episodes air nowadays the opening theme is not present in the beginning and is shoved into where the ending theme is. Question: Where did this start? I say this because I know this didn't happen in the many 70s, 80s, and 90s anime I've watched and there are some in the 00s that did not do this, so where did this start and why did it catch on? It irks me in loads.
