It's hard to criticize without posting spoilers, but let's just say that the plot is 'retarded and full of holes.

Still was probably a 7/10 or so.


7/10 is quite the low rating to give the second best selling anime of all time methinks. Wouldn't mind exploring those plot holes though, since it seemed pretty water tight to me and, if you dont mind me saying so, most people wouldn't know a plot hole if it walked up and kicked them in then nuts.

While we recognise that discussions on the internet may sometimes become a little heated, we do not allow any type of harassment or defamatory posting. Keep all posting reasonable and do not target a specific player or player group with baseless or unconstructive criticism. Keep topics on the subject matter and do not get drawn into flame wars and personal attacks.
Offences in this category include: •Posting to harass another player.
•Posting to defame another player.
•Posting with the sole intent of “breaking” another player.
•Posting to encourage other players to quit playing RuneScape.
•Naming another player in a negative light.
•Stating who can and cannot post in a thread.


For the last one of your bullet points, I don't recall someone stating who can or can't post here. You're free to post within the rules, but you'll have to be prepared if you're posting about the garbage that comprises the Big 3, because every regular here (including myself) is likely going to rip you a new one, like we have for years. Also, our criticisms are not baseless and we believe them to be constructive in enlightening the young people whose minds have been poisoned. The fact that you're still degenerate thugs is your fault, not ours.

This is the internet. Deal with it.

"That's the kind of riffraff we're trying to keep out."

"full of undesirables who have miraculously not found this thread yet. By acting as the gatekeepers, we keep out stuff like this."

"If you want to talk about Naruto then go back to Gaia."

Sounds like trying to keep people from posting here to me.

It's more like 'keep people from posting about certain content'. People are generally entitled to like what they want as far as I'm concerned, but the 'Big 3' (and associated) are a malignant cancer when it comes to the anime fandom, being as mediocre as they can and pulling would-be anime fans into a rutt where their entire anime world begins and ends with titles who's manga are published in Shonen Jump. The long time regulars here recognize this, and try to sway people off those shows or, failing that, at least try to prevent discussion of those shows dominating.

Believe me, it happens. Because the 'general' fanbase for the 'big 3+' is far wider than the English speaking anime consumer base in and of itself, there is a distinct risk of discussion about those particular inane shows taking over a thread that is devoted to anime in general (see the aforementioned quote page).

This is just one of those things where you need to adhere to the social construct of the day, becasue this thread is a very small club of regulars. You dont have to as far as the rules are concerned, but becasue of those existing social constructs you'll find if you dont you wont be very welcome.

Basically, what I'm trying to say is that talking about the Shonen Jump type series here is like wearing an 'I love blacks' shirt to a KK Klan rally, or wearing an 'I love Calculus' shirt to a house party.

We have to quickly excise the cancer before it begins to metastasize. The "Anime Quotes" thread is full of undesirables who have miraculously not found this thread yet. By acting as the gatekeepers, we keep out stuff like this:

"Delete, delete, delete!.... Delete!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -Teru Mikami"
"-Drops to knees- Your a miracle Mustang ill follow u for the rest of my life! ~havoc~"
""GRRAAAARRGH! BLOOOOD! IT'S MY BLOOOOD!" - Gaara from Episode 67"
""I wouldn´t mind being eaten, as long as it's by a scorchingly hot lady titan." — Dot Pixis"
""Lelouch vi Britannia commands you!" - Lelouch, in many, many different episodes of Code Geass"

All of these quotes come from the RSOT. This is what we're going up against.


Hey, this thread said Anime Discussion, so I discussed what episodes of an Anime series I liked most. Nothing is wrong is that. You can go and be mean somewhere else but you're not going to do that to me. You don't have to be a jerk making innappropriate and hurtful replies to others, okay? If you don't like the series, then that's your problem, and you should keep it to yourself instead of making a big deal out of it.

I don't hold grudges, and I hope you have a nice day playing RuneScape.

What part of that comment do you think constitutes a discussion? Even though we still would have torn you apart, you at least need a lead-in question like "Hey, what do you guys think about Naruto? I like...". Instead, your post merely states an opinion - and that's it.

In this thread all anime are equal, but some are more equal than others. As has been previously mentioned, fans of the "Big 3" are a malignant cancer to other anime discussions and so we've got to nip this sort of thing in the bud before it becomes a problem. I have good new though! There are thousands of other places to discuss Naruto that aren't the RSOT. Go post about it there!
