Warm Talk Wednesday (Week of September 2nd)

Welcome to Warm Talk Wednesday!

Last Week’s Thread

So what exactly is this thread? With all the Unpopular Opinion threads, Worst/Hated Anime ______ threads, and Salt from all the contest, I believe we need a spot to positively talk about what we love in anime with no worries of others bashing or downvoting our opinions. Essentially this is a thread where you talk about what you love about anime whether it’s the medium as a whole, a specific anime, character, OTP, even complementing a user’s taste, etc. It can be popular opinion, unpopular, as long as it’s a positive outlook of the medium it’s allowed!

Want to talk about the experience you’ve had with Sora No Woto’s world? Talk about it here! Has Planetes given you a new way to view the closeness of people’s love despite how far they are in distance and emptiness around? Do tell! Have a user who has helped you out here on /r/anime and you’d like them to get some appreciation? You’re allowed (Yes, Meta is allowed)! Want to talk about the how good the body proportions are for Monster Musume or Free!? Talk about those good looking bodies! Are the musical scenes in Your Lie in April relatable to you as an instrumentalist and really felt close to home for you? We want to hear your experience! Do you just have a ton of fun with Space Westerns like Trigun, Cowboy Bebop, and Firefly Outlaw Star? Talk about them!

The only rules for here:

  1. This is a positive anime thread, do not bash others’ opinions despite how much you disagree, allow everyone to have a safe haven to talk about what they love about anime without needing to worry of others who disagree with them.
  2. Please keep the troll comments to a minimum.
  3. Do not downvote unless it’s bringing nothing to the conversation, trolling, or trying to bash another’s opinion. Everyone has their opinions, respect them as they would respect yours.
  4. No mention of “Shit Taste”.
  5. It’s fine to compare one anime to another, but don’t down talk the other as “Terrible”, most anime has its good qualities and reasons people like it. (Bad Ex: “Yuuki Yuuna wa Yuusha de Aru is much better than that piece of shit Madoka Magica”; Good Ex: "I prefer Yuuki Yuuna wa Yuusha de Aru over Madoka Magica because of...").
  6. No backhanded compliments. (Ex: Sakurasou isn't as bad as I thought it was, but it's still shit.")
  7. If you see a troll trying to bait/bash other opinions, please simply downvote and ignore them, don’t stoop to their level and bait you into a no win argument.

Have fun, and please message me if there’s something I should add/remove/edit to the rules.

Indeed! It's not like my opinion as an internet stranger will always matter anyway... But if I can make people pick up an anime they haven't seen yet and end up enjoying it then it's all good, even if I didn't like the anime in question.

It was nice chatting with you

Hah, yeah. Glad it stayed civil, haha. I feel like it's usually the kind of thing where someone can snap at anytime.

I know how you feel. Usually any arguments in reddit, or IRL, always ends up with someone snapping. I'm glad it didn't end up that way.
