why'd endless eight get so much hate?
| tanigawa wanted to comment on the nature of time and its consequences, fans wanted to see kyon abused by a quirky fuckable goddess
that's really the gist of it. you can get into the weeds of, "oh no too much padding" or "oh no my meaningful plot progression" or even "i waited a week to see this?" but ultimately it's about kyon not being abused by a quirky fuckable goddess enough
| why would you want kyon to be abused though? he looks mid at best, like a generic harem protag
| well nevermind the novikov self-consistency principle, sister you need to understand what a self-insert is
| I watched it on-air and was kinda pissed about it then, I think it's very cool now though.
| i dunno bcuz seven ate nine?
| kyon denwaaaaaAAAAA
| endless 8 got so much h8 because endless 7 got 11 and endless 9 doesn't rhyme
| i unironically believe that if they did endless eight over 3-4 weeks instead of 8 but the episode count was kept the same the hate would have been so much lower
| What I'm confused about with the hate is who were actually watching it on TV? Like, by now the vast majority of people who's watched it probably watched it online and not while it was ongoing on TV in Japan considering how many years has passed and it being popular worldwide. People hating on it with the TV run as a reason comes off so fake cause ik your 20yr non-Japanese ass didn't watch that shit as it was airing, so what the fuck are you complaining about??
| Simply because if you read the novel, you can speed read. If you read manga you can glance through fast. But with weekly anime, it is a long week wait just to sit and watch 20 mins of inside joke.
| I miss Haruhi Suzumiya and the culture around it. Gutted we never got a third season after thr movie.
Have faith the SOS brigade will return, believe in the Goddess.
Refresh
| it's not like every episode was exactly the same, plus it gave more focus on best girl yuki
