29: Has an anime's fanbase ever made you hesitant to watch an anime?
literally every fandom ever has made me hesitant of literally everything everi guess the best example i have though is free!... before the anime had even started people were spitting hate at kou and i was like 'welp is this rly something i want to associate with'. apparently yes.
36: In your opinion, what makes a good anime?
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHH............OHHHHH NO THIS IS HARD.......................................my taste is SO varied man shit i. hmmm. i guess if i had to pick one thing above all else, it would be character development. most of the time anime is so devoid of personality because the focus is on the plot and the characters are just soulless props designed to navigate said plot and it's... idk. i guess it does its purpose, but i truly appreciate anime where there is a vibrant and varied cast with character depth. one example that came to mind immedietely was hyouka, the character development there is iiiiiiincredible because the plot IS the character development. or rather, the focus is on the varying relationships between the 4 main characters. also beyblade is fucking Hella for character development ok. like. through the 3 seasons you see them change so much but they still retain their... core i guess? for lack of a better way of explaining it. ALSO HETALIA, OBVIOUSLY, like you guys should series read the characters' wiki pages at some point. i guarantee you that you will learn something new, especially in regards to a character like belarus where it turns out she is actually likE SUPER FUCKING DEVELOPED, COMPARED TO A LOT OF OTHER CHARAS ok moving on
40: Thoughts on live-action adaptations?very rarely done well, which is a shame. not that i can think of many examples where i've attempted to watch one lol. but the ohshc one was just a big fat 'no' for me tbh. like i guess it's difficult because people are already automatically comparing it to the original, and no one is ever going to be completely satisfied will all the casting and stuff? but i don't have anything against them, i'm sure they can be done well it's just that they probably have limited budgets and stuff so they can never be as good as they potentially could have been
