Welcome to c/anime on Hexbear!
A leftist general anime community for discussion and memes.
Simple rules
Be nice.
Use spoiler tags.
Don't sexualise underage characters, including 1000 year old loli ones.
Don't post hentai here. This is an anime community.
High quality threads you should definitely visit
Gigathread: Good Anime Talks, Presentations, Conventions, Panels, etc
Piracy is good and you should do more of it. Use https://aniwave.to/ and https://4anime.gg/ for streaming, and https://nyaa.si/ for torrents. Piracy is the only means of digital protest that audiences have to fight poor worker treatment.
It's just SEO garbage. I'm assuming horny teenagers are the ones clicking on these?
This probably belongs in whatever the weeb version of the_dunk_tank is.
There is something about SEO YT video titles that I find so unappealing. Especially the gamer ones. "The developers KNEW what they were doing!"
I dunno I've been having a lot of fun with my Mr. Beast extension that adds his gaping maw to every YT thumbnail
Wow someone actually took the time to dev an extension for that 🤣 people never cease to amaze me
Nightmare fuel
ReArrow might help. It's a crowd-sourced extension like SponsorBlock that improves the title of most popular videos.
☹️ wanted to reply with my lemmyplatinum.jpg but your instance no allowy external pictures
you'll just have to join our instance 
Thank you!
These isekai shows are practically all an attempt at a clever premise on top of the exact same non-story, so these recaps are probably the ideal way to enjoy them if you really have to
The reborn as a vending machine one is so dumb I had to watch it. It's fun but now it's mid-season and they're starting to run out of ideas.
I meeeean, a premise like that is definitely more of an episode than a full blown series so I don’t doubt it’s rough at the mid-season point
@UlyssesT@hexbear.net we need your expertise here
The best I got is that the SEO-baiting trash of the videos is matching the nearly insatiable capacity of its target audience to be predictably pandered to, both on Youtube and among specifically-targeted anime consumers in general that want a filled out checklist of safe and predictable cliches, again, with only the hair colors, personality cliches, and some plot devices swapped around almost like a data-collecting chatbot otherwise would. It's done because it sells, unfortunately.
How's that? Happy?
people who want to watch something without looking at it
I did watch a couple of those cause I will not dumb 5-30+h into anime.
It probably is SEO garbage, but sometimes I listen to 40k lore videos even though I already know it. Sometimes I want someone's reactions/cliffnotes. idk dopamine hits
