Classy doesn't sell.
I mean, to be fair, it's pretty much the same cover as the first Japanese Blu-ray volume, just with a different background.

This would have been the better cover.
Though I guess they can use it as disc art.
Ro-Kyu-Bu makes no attempts to hide what it is. It's a fun, quirky enjoyable show that is excessive in its fanservice. The characters are interesting and the basketball scenes are actually well done given what you'd expect from the nature of the show. It is not trying to be anything more than it is, and for what it is, it does it well.
Penguindrum was garbage. The characters were somehow more shallow and pathetic than in loli ball, with a forced plot, comedy that wasn't funny, drama that was pointless, side characters and storylines that are completely pointless and never get resolved, supernatural elements which were patently offensive.
So yeah I get why they went with that picture as their cover.
And I really couldn't care less if you think I should be taken seriously or not.
This cover is honestly offensive.
I guess they'd agree that the actual show itself doesn't have enough merits to sell, so gotta resort to the oldest trick in the book to sell copies.
I can't really think of one positive thing about Kokoro Connect. I've already posted what I feel is too much about how painfully contrived the scenarios are, and how the character interactions feel embellished and fake while lacking any real substance.Really?
Kokoro Connect is very enjoyable and is the most enjoyable show for me this season. The first arc was fantastic, the characters and the relationships between them are quite interesting. I honestly am not sure if you're trying to insinuate Kokoro Connect is somehow a bad show but I would just flat out disagree with that premise.
I respect the work KyoAni does. I just happen to find Hyouka incredibly dull and painful to watch. It's well made - it just also happens to be completely uninteresting.
Just as kayos has a Pavlovian response to any post relating to Sword Art Online (however tangentially), darkside will without fail post in response to anything relating to PingDrum with a post that basically says "it sucks". That's just how it goes.
The only reason it bothers me is because I loved PingDrum and it makes me sad that darkside hates it so much (and reminds us of it every chance he can).

And unlike a KyoAni show, even if I'm not into what's going on the art isn't about to keep me entertained.
I haven't really seen a lot of positive impressions regarding Kokoro Connect in other places. Sorry. If you like it and stuff cool, whatever, it just seems weird to me to enjoy that and not Hyouka; which is a really accomplished piece that is capable of being tactful and subtle while it entertains.
All that said while you keep waving a Chitanda car flag!
I'm sure Nichijou fans feel the same way about my cruel words. Sorry guys!
Best. Gundam battle. Ever.

I asked to have it changed because I didn't like it. This was shorter and simpler, and I didn't want to completely change it because I felt that would throw people off entirely.What happened to your name?
Please try to understand it's stuff like this that gives off the impression that you are trolling.They have the same exact MAL scores.

It's simply impossible to square your criticism here, which complains about using sex to sell something, with your praise of a show which uses the sexualization of underaged girls to sell a basketball show. "It doesn't pretend to be something it's not" is entirely irrelevant to your original criticism. When you complain that the Penguin Drum cover is offensive, while excusing the much more obvious sins of loli basketball, there's no way to view it except as hypocrisy.

I liked it.
I doubt it because you limit your criticism to the parts you actually dislike instead of using your dislike as an excuse to attack it for anything, even things that you don't mind in other shows.
I tend to do this sometimes. Sometimes bias just wins out!

Yes but usually just for K-on, and no one takes you seriously on that any more.
You claim that you can't find positive impressions about the show anywhere. MAL is one of the largest subsections of western anime fans on the internet. There is a large subsection of people who seem to be enjoying that show. I can understand if you don't agree with opinions of other people but saying that nobody likes the show would just be silly.
Creeps?Penguindrum wasn't intended to be aimed at the same general audience as loliball.
Your name tells a different story!I hate K-On...
Your name tells a different story!
Creeps?
Hey, it was a really corny line.[/spoiler]
Creeps?
Yeah I don't know. Penguin Drum is pretty fucking creepy. It even hasstalkers and rape
I thought penguindrums were aimed towards sickos. Was I wrong with this assessment?
I hate K-On...
Yes but usually just for K-on, and no one takes you seriously on that any more.
Only one of the those two shows dealt withincest and rape.
Really? Seems like a show you would like.
I thought it was aimed at fans of train maps.
So I was right. Sickos, right?
Sure. But it's also true that only one of the show tacitly approved of the sexualization and objectification of little girls.
no, Penguin Drum is still a fun show.
It just so happens that Ringo is batshit insane.
I wouldn't trust most anime fans. Particularly if they congregated in a place like that. On these boards I haven't seen Kokoro Connect pick up many fans, and I would be shocked to see it much when people vote for their favorite stuff at the end of the year.You claim that you can't find positive impressions about the show anywhere.

You're trolling, right? Or are you being serious... Can't tell.....
When you were explaining your love for Asuna, it seemed like you'd be a Mugi-bro.
Uh there was that entire scene witha chisel.
And Himari isn't exactly that old herself.

What's train maps? Are you actually talking about maps regarding trains? I don't get the joke then...
Why is Kokoro Connect a bad show?
I don't watch it but I heard enough positive feedback about it.
