I also liked the logic where people who did not like the show are "moé loving plebs who cannot comprehend True Art with their feeble mind" even if they reasonably and rationally gave their reasons as for why and how.

However the legion on 2ch apparently attacking the manga-ka and director, ordering the series just to cancel it later so it will be overstocked, etc. Well sorry to say that is exactly my impression of them.

Does anyone who has read the manga know just how much the themes are influenced by the poetry of Baudelaire and Rimbaud? I read some spoilerless reviews on MAL about the manga, and many people called it, essentially, just another femdom manga where a guy makes a contract with sadistic girl and blackmail ensues.
I'm halfway through Spleen and Ideal and Baudelaire has already conjured up some fantastic images regarding muses, women, death and generally life.

I need a bit of help deciphering here, because there's the actors who lent their likenesses to the show:

I think I got used to it after a few minutes. I even got enthralled by the second going-to-school sequence (may or may not be Stockholm Syndrome talking ) - it's really unusual to see anime characters actually acting like real people, and I love how the village feels like an actual Japanese village.

You're drawing a false equivalency here unless you can actually point to someone who has been using this logic. Personally, I haven't seen anybody here on Anime Suki using this logic.

The grain of truth in your concern is that I have two opinions that came out superficially as they did: 1.) Anime shows tend to don't sell very well if visuals aren't "good", or rather, even good-looking shows that have terrible everything else except animation can do pretty well. 2.) The fanbase has over the years become more moe-centric. Now even people who previously despised moe like it, because they've come to the realization times are changing and they'll be left out otherwise. Of course, the other reason is also because I sometimes troll you people and don't really care if you think it's bad, but it was a very small part of it. Please don't ban me. |

So what I'm getting out of all this is that this should have been a Drama but they didn't have the balls to float the rules and as such we're stuck with a bad cartoon insulting the people who read the comic instead of trying to grow a pair?
Real progressive guys. You are japan. |

I saw it more as a commentary on how this show isn't for everyone. Very few shows are, of course.

Hmm. The first guy was captured the most accurately; the other three become progressively less so. The lead character's looks were certainly downgraded a lot, from about a 9 in real life to a 6 in the anime. That guy looks awesome, speaking of which. He looks like he was born to be the main protagonist of an anime. |
