Lucky Star

Postby Kagami Hiiragi » Sun Nov 04, 2012 1:44 pm

I made this nation in homage to Lucky Star, and I'm curious to hear other peoples reactions and stories to this mind-numbing anime.

And I mean literally mind-numbing. While watching it, I had absolutely no capacity for any sort of intellectual thought. I watched it for 6 CONSECUTIVE HOURS.

It is an Anime, what does anyone really expect out of an Anime?

A good comedy. But I think Azumanga Daioh is better.

lucky start is 100% awful
we, unlike the bourgeoisie, have nothing to lose and therefore our expression will be the only honest one, our words will be the only challenging ones and our art will be the one revolutionary expression. We need new noise and new voices and new canvases to become something more than the last poets of a useless generation.

I liked Lucky Star. Shut up.
In other words — and this is the rock solid principle on which the whole of the Corporation's Galaxy-wide success is founded — their fundamental design flaws are completely hidden by their superficial design flaws.

Lucky Star was fine, but like Haruhi Suzumiya it worked best of you'd watched lots of anime and known a decent amount of Japanese culture beforehand.

If you think that's pandering to pedophiles, then you haven't even scratched the surface. Not at all. On the scale of 'Japanese things that pander to pedophiles,' Lucky Star isn't even on the list.

Any anime that's supposed to be moe or whatever panders to pedophiles.

In the same way that MLP panders to those interested in beastiality, sure.

Nothing wrong with that. But from what I have seen of it I would tend to agree with the post immediately after the one I'm quoting.

no, it's definitely pandering to pedophiles and don't bother acting condescending

in fact it's the most successful and profitable case of 'pandering to pedophiles'


the art style is absolutely dreadful by the way.

Right, well seeing as how this is the internet and you seem to have entrenched your desire to criticize this show more than Republicans have entrenched their hatred of Obama, there's hardly any point arguing further. To close:
