I don’t care for any of it. I don’t like comic books and I don’t like Star Wars either.
He’s a witch!
We are the same person. I also don’t like Star Trek or any of the other star* shows.
Almost. I like Star Trek because of the women.
Yeah, like that time Quark was one 🥵
Even Stargate?
Hell yeah. I’ve finally found another who will say it out loud.
Wtf is this question?
Engagement bait
Well I for one don’t want to marry OP
OP has been in a lengthy struggle with the world over media. They swore off manga previously due to “christian morals” and the fact that Zombieland Saga contained zombies, then got back into it because of Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure, and now it seems they’ve hit another block within the last month.
And it’s not just manga. They’ve also had an issue with Wikipedia.
Shouldn’t “does anybody else” questions be banned from this sub? Lol
Gives me “am I a special snowflake?” vibes
This feels like a post ripped straight from the new AI Reddit. Every other post on there is some dumb ass generic question, really irking me to see that starting to overflow here now
like most things, some of it is very good but the vast majority of it is extremely poor. I wouldn’t say I like or dislike it as a rule but I’d say on average I dislike it by far, and when it’s bad it has a way of being very intolerably bad.

So we don’t understand then?
Right, but you deleted it so we can’t.
Why say something so pointless. Just tell people how you feel about it instead of basically saying “You’d know how I feel about it if you knew how I feel about it”.
Damn, now we don’t know what we don’t know, because the guy deleted another comment lol.
The OP’s comment (which has now been deleted) was “If you read some of the comments I’ve deleted, you would know.”
Those are pretty broad categories. It’s like asking “Does anybody dislike cartoons and comics?”
To my utter dismay, I’ve learnt that there are some people who find that question entirely sensible and normal.
I know people who will refuse to watch anything animated or comic related
ive got a friend who will say all the time that she doesn’t like cartoons but was literally ready to shove kids out of the way to watch kung fu panda 4
Does anybody dislike media?

I have to disagree.
Comics is a huge, world-encompassing category of media in which events & stories are depicted through (generally) simplified art with text insertions. Manga (for example) is a subset of comics, being both specific to a single country as well as existing as a certain style of comics.Personally I’d add that manga tends to exist under fairly tight conventions in terms of how things are visually portrayed and in terms of how information and context is given towards the reader. For example, kind of like emojis, there’s a bunch of facial reactions and certain simple phrases that instantly tell you what mood or reaction a character or the author is trying to impart. This kind of thing isn’t surprising to me either, as Japan tends to heavily codify cultural tradition, even in a relatively new-ish field like manga. There’s also the fact that an enormous tradition in manga came out of aping or riffing on the early creators, primarily Tezuka Osamu I’d say.
So, point is-- one can dislike a certain niche or branch of comics, but that certainly doesn’t have any special impact on how one likes comics in general. Personally I’m not a huge fan of manga, and superhero comics bore the tights off me, and I’m not as much a fan of underground comics as I used to be, but overall I’m a huge fan of the comics medium, and of course love me some BD, part of why I try to make a new post daily.
Manga is the Japanese word for comics. There are many different styles and inspirations by a myriad of artists.
It’s like saying all cartoons are the same as Disney, or all comics are basically Superman.
Yes, “manga” is the Japanese word for comics, but in terms of the overall, world genre of comics? It specifically refers to comics within a certain style, ~99% of it being Japanese-made.

Yes, those are some nonsensical falsisms. Thanks for randomly stating them?
Every time I get downvoted for pointing out the rampant and casual pedophilia plaguing anime, I hate weebs a little bit more.
This. I don’t partake in anything anime related and I’m mostly neutral on it as a whole, but the prevalence of pedophilia and related themes is highly disturbing as is the lack of pushback against it from the community.
And, that being said, the people who make anime their entire personality are also… difficult to be around.
No joke. They’re the kind of people that have to over-dramatize every damn thing and have explosive reactions to anything.
Like calm the fuck down, you’re not in an anime show.
That’s why I don’t like most anime. There are some gems that don’t stoop that low, but the bar is ridiculously low for such a high rate of not meeting it

Me.
I’ve tried. I won’t say it doesn’t deserve to be liked, but it does absolutely nothing for me.
Yeah.
Not me, but I’ve met plenty of people that just adamantly hate all forms of animation. I didn’t much care for those people. They all had ACME sized sticks up their asses.
I am sure there are. Just like there are people who don’t like comic books.
I find that there is far too much of it in my Lemmy feed. I have a very long list of blocked communities which I have blocked, tediously, one at a time as they appeared. Obviously a lot of people like it, but it’s not for me.
I wish there was a setting similar to the one that blocks NSFW content, but for anime and manga.
No, but I like retro anime a lot more than modern anime.

Not inherently but I hate most anime tropes. Most anime are also very childish or straight up nonsensically bullshit, just “too out there” if you know what I mean. There’s the odd decent one though, and the rare gem, but I can’t really be arsed to wade through the absolute pile of garbage first to even find them.
Im with you on this. I don’t dislike anime/manga as a medium. However, there is a tendancy for the format to exaggerate things I find annoying. That and the fan culture, much like many other highly dedicated fanbases, can be a major turn-off as well.
I dislike how common certain tropes are, how overacted it is, and how formulaic most of the stories are. I also hate Shounen and its focus on which guy is strongest. It’s boring to me.
Yesterday I drove by Düsseldorf, which is Germany’s most Weeaboo city, and they had this ugly fucking mural at their train station.
I don’t mind most anime/manga based media, but media about anime/manga makes me really uncomfortable. Defining yourself by the fact you like Anime is just a lot weirder than defining yourself by the fact you like JJBA or InitalD.
No I love it. Frieren is so good (´°ω°`)
As a German I want to slap someone whenever I hear those fucking “names”.
I don’t think I’ve ever been exposed to either. I mean, I know they exist, but I’ve never watched or read either and none of my peer group does (that I know of)
