Am I Too Old School for New Anime?

[Megatolium]

Am I the only one who can't stand typical and generic cliches in today's anime?

Things like heroes in their teens, unnecessary gore, from yandere to kundere and such. It was good the first time now its getting on my nerves....its like it EVERY anime.

Kinda makes it hard to watch anime like Tokyo Ghoul or whatever.

Attack on Titan is fine, it closely portrays actual human nature to get the fear factor somewhere with titans.

Is it weird to want a anime likened to real life human character? I'm watching Monster (no spoilers please) and I never been this hooked for a while now...

Tokyo is hella good doe. But i get wha ya mean

 

[AshurSeku]

Watch Jojo.

 

[Desiigner]

Tokyo Ghoul is awesome. At least the manga is.

 

[Venomous Cobra]

I actually kinda get your general point, I also hate new animes but damn shingeki no kyojin is epic

 

[Kirikoe]

no.. its just something your used to seeing.. try different genre's ..

imo i saw DBZ and massive scaled fighting so much that i welcomed Naruto (part 1) and have now pretty much grown bored of part 2 because of the following problem

try different anime/manga genres and expand your horizons a bit more and then when you do go back to something like tokyo goul it will have been a while since u last saw that type of anime that you probs won't have much of a problem

I think I understand what you mean. It's as though the industry recognized a formula for "success" and everyone started using it.

I agree there's a lot of that, but as others have said, keep an open mind. There's still good stuff to be found.

 

[The Dreamer]

Seriously. Anime is just copying one another these days.

Maybe you should watch some nonviolent shoujo for awhile.

 

[Funky Tiger]

Nakama power!!!​

Maybe you should watch some nonviolent shoujo for awhile.

I'm currently watching Monster right now, enjoying it ))

Monster is truly a masterpiece. You should read gantz/berserk too, you'll be impressed.

 

[Chakra Wizard]

Not if they're done good. Unnecessary gore is tough to defend, but if a character's good and well-written, I don't care what age they are

Have you met Johan yet? Terrifying, is he not? lol

No , just you . Get out of the same demographic bubble you probably are, try something different or like a lot of the people I see do in here is that if you watch every anime 24/7 you'll eventually get tired of it and complain about , If it's like that you should just stop watching it.

And no is not weird , I want that as well and look for that type of series too.
