It is for me. I used to think the odd cute little sidekick character in an otherwise great show was a funny distraction, now it reminds me of the trend they started and what a large part of anime has become. Can't watch any of it anymore. Well, Ghibli movies, because they're still innocent cute and not creepy cute.
i used to wahtc tv but then they came out with some shows i didn like so i assumed all sows were like that and now i dont watch tv anymore at all its all the same mindless crap i wish it was like it was back in the 80's back when tv was good now its all bad
cept for pixar they make good movies that everyone likes without being dumb
 
There are 38 shows from this season alone. Do you honestly think every single one is creepy cute? Some don't even have little girls in them.

Of course I don't think that, and honestly I lost the taste for anime in general past ~20. I loved stuff like Memories, Cowboy Bebop, Paranoia Agent, Monster, GitS, everything by Satoshi Kon and Ghibli etc. Couldn't and still can't stand anything fanservice-y, shonen, giant robot, slice of life, harem etc. When more shows started becoming like that, and fewer like the ones I liked, I stopped following it. Also Satoshi Kon died :( The ones that did try weren't as good as the old stuff (eg Ergo Proxy). I don't know if it has changed, but from everything I've seen it doesn't look like it. I'd sure love it if I'm wrong though.

sorry for the huge OT, guess I'll stop now.

If you have any interest in returning there are lots of things the anime thread could recommend both current and old that fit what you are looking for.

Dammit animeGAF, get back in your cage!

We have unleashed the moe, there is no stopping it now.
 
You just want to watch because she's waving her booty around.

I think "If I were in a Sealed room with a girl I'd XXX" easily tops this. Especially with the screens of the girl tied up with jump rope in a box or something.

How'd that sell?
 
Seriously? A game about little sisters based on some random anime is the best selling game of the week?

Wow, anime has really gone downhill these past few years, everything is just about moe 10 year old girls now. Why can't anime go back to being good like it was in the 90's, we had stuff like Evangelion, Bebop the Cowboy, Utena....

You have to realize that's a generalization. Right?
 
I love my little sister. She's awesome.

Congratulations, I wish I was as lucky as you. I think i'd enjoy the little sister experience a lot more if mine didn't scream at the top of her lungs all the time at home and consistently bother me when i'm trying to relax. She never listens to a word I say; in fact she tries to spite me by doing the very opposite.

Thankfully I only have to put up with her for 4 months a year.

my little sister plays video games with me.
 
Are Japan sales usually this bad? Maybe those aren't even bad numbers, but they certainly look low to me. I wonder what it's like by comparison in America?

The top 20 combined is roughly 200,000 units, which isn't too shabby for one week I think. That would be a good question to ask the Media Create Sales thread gurus.
