Rant on Game of Thrones spoilers

finally done with GoT Season 6 and
holy shiet! 
the last 2 episodes are the best in the series so far!

but my enjoyment of the series is greatly reduced because the internet are spoiling everything because of those rabid fans.....

it feels like if you don't watch it on D-Day

you're screwed

totally screwed, mate

I really hate the people who'd be like "Please do not spoil it for me!" 

and after they watch it

they spoil everything on the internet!

and they’d be like

"it's your own fault, why don't you watch on D-Day too?"

People have their own lives and not all of them have the spare time like you, you spoilery cunts!

people invest their time to watch it.. and so does the writers who put so much effort to make twist and turns of the stories!

if you already know something is happening in the story, 

it feels like that you already lost the element of surprise!

the element of surprise is what makes people who can't stand spoilers (like me) feels engaged and immersed with the story

so what's my point with all these rants about spoilers?

please be considerate to others who haven't watch it

if you have watched it, and you feel that you need someone to discuss about it. just discuss with the person who already watched it instead

I don't need to know your reaction of the twist or someone's death on a series! 

if you feel so inclined to make a reaction make a reaction video out of it and upload it to youtube!

it's a thing on Youtube nowadays!

okay guys, that was my rant on Game of Thrones spoilers

for those who did enjoy the series without spoiling 

good for you 

for those who spoil it well this picture is for you

Anime Elitist vs Anime Casuals

Hey guys! How's it going? Welcome back to my weekly post! I had a busy week at work *as usual* but yeah. that's life. you gotta face 'em all! Anyway I managed to upgrade my 3DS to New 3DS and it was AWESOME! Finally I got to play Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate with 60 fps and 3D on! My god! best. game. ever! I was thinking to not to update my blog because of this lol

Anyway, this week I'm going to rant a little bit. This post is going to be my personal opinion on Anime Elitist and Anime Casuals

The thing is,

Anime community sucks

seriously though, I entered and saw some discussion on the internet about Anime, and yeah, it sucks so hard! Not just local anime community, but also other anime community
and I noticed that there are two types of person from this anime community *generally
Which is Anime Elitist and Anime Casuals.
Anime Elitist is an anime enthusiasts who thinks that his/her taste is so refined so other anime which is not qualified as "God Tier" anime is going to be called trash. They usually have watched like more than 300 anime titles.
They'd be like "Oh your taste in anime is so shitty!"

"Your waifu is a whore! what a shit taste you have!"

"You watched this anime and you liked it? WHAT A PLEB!"

"You only watch the anime and thought that character is shitty?? READ THE MANGO PLOX!"

MANGO IS FOOD! WHY SHOULD WE READ FOOD? WE EAT FOOD GODDAMMIT!

so yeah that kind of person

While anime casuals are the one who watches like 5 anime and be like "OH MY GOD THIS IS THE BEST ANIME EVER!". They enjoy that kind of anime, usually the anime that they watch are the "mainstream" anime like Naruto, One Piece, Bleach, Sword Art Online, Attack on Titan and so on

So these 2 types of person really, really, got my nerves sometimes *hahaha
What got my nerves for both of these guys is because the elitist feels like "Holier than thou" kind of person but in anime community. And Anime community is a niche community which means it is a small community. And this so called elitist are even more niche than the anime community. And Anime casuals are the majority of the community. And seeing these two types of person debating over anime is just down right hilarious. The elitist love to make fun of the casuals, and the casuals be like what the hell man! THIS IS THE BEST ANIME EVER!

Personally I'm neither an elitists or casual because I also have watched like 250 anime titles *not qualified lol
but I watched anime just to know and feel engaged to its story, and most of the anime which elitist claims to be "God Tier" Anime are my favorite anime like JoJo's Bizzare Adventure for example
And sometimes I watched anime just to escape from reality for a bit and just to sit and enjoy the ride. And that "enjoy" kind of thing is just my personal taste. I enjoyed some of the (so called by elitist) shitty anime like One Piece or UtaPri *yes I watched this with my girlfriend and we were like CinemaSins commenting on everything that wrong with that show lol* but I enjoyed watching anime or read manga which has intriguing story like Mushishi, 20th Century Boys, Madoka Magica and so on.

My point here is, just don't be a dick to others. Opinion of other people should be respected even it is a stupid opinion like "SAO is the best anime ever" *I laughed out loud typing this sentence*
I work as a qualitative marketing researcher which heavily relies on respondent's opinion
My boss always said to me  "Every opinion matters no matter how silly they are".
Both elitist and casuals take the opinion as a fact and didn't respect each other's opinion. The thing is, opinion is not a fact. it's just an opinion. My preferences with your preferences are different. even though you judged my preferences as shitty, I don't mind! I'm ok with that

Just
don't
be
a dick!

What triggers me to post this is because I saw a post (you can click that one if you understand Bahasa Indonesia) yesterday that happens in my campus which holding a Japanese event from yesterday till today. And there's a girl who cosplays as Nico from Love Live! Personally, Nico is my least favourite character because of her annoying personality. (Remember that was just my opinion). And in Indonesian Anime Community there's a meme spreading out in the internet that says
"Waifumu lacur mz" and the direct translation would be "Your waifu is a whore, sir!" which is usually used by so-called "Anime Elitist"
And Nico is considered as a "lacur" or a whore by the elitist
And you know what happened?
There's a person shouting "Whore!" to her in that event..........

Seriously??

Is this how you elitist work? What the hell man, You are lucky I'm not around in that event..  If I was happen to be around, I'd be like

You can call me SJW or anything but, I'd totally hit that person. Can you imagine how that girl feel to be called like that? Those inconsiderate bastards! You can joke around on the internet, but when in public places, that joke can be taken as an insult! Just know your place!

*sigh

Back to the topic, my point is, just don't be a dick to others!
Here 's a quote from Ritsu Senpai from Bokura wa minna Kawaisou

Sorry for the rant guys, I hope that this anime community will be a better community. If it helps, I'd love to guide those "anime casuals" to watch even more anime that has better story and quality. That's your job elitist!
Thanks for reading!

What makes a mature anime?

Hey guys, welcome back to my blog! Hope you guys are feeling well and healthy!
I had a minor accident this week. It's not that horrible, but I'm okay! This week I had a little bit of confusion of what should I post this week, I had materials and so on *in my head* but didn't have the time to write it here *or make a draft out of it* because I'm quite busy with work this week hahaha! So hopefully you enjoy this week's post! I promise to my self to post at least an entry every Sunday.

Enough with the chit chat, let's jam!

As a person who spent a lot of time on the internet, sometimes I just love to see how people interact with each other, and on this case is the anime lover vs the normal person

The normal person would normally see people who loves to watch anime is childish. That person would be like

"Oh you still watch cartoon? What a brat!"

and the anime lover be like

"It's not cartoon! It's anime!"

and that particular anime lover post it in the anime group and be like

"This normies never watched anime and told that it was childish! This guy never seen Highschool DxD!"

Welp, that was an interesting statement......

Personally, I'd ignore what normal people say about anime. If they say childish, I don't mind. Don't make other people's judgement bothers who you really are. I am 25 years old now and I can say that I still enjoy watching anime because I just love it! Should you care about them not liking anime? No, just love what you do. It's better for you to spend time doing something you really enjoy better than looking after someone and get pissed at someone who don't really care about you, right?

Anyway,

Highschool DxD is an anime that heavily relies on... Sexual themes, as you can see here, The "plot" is just too huge to handle lol

Look at the size of that.........hair! My god she has long hair! *eh

Now we're back to the main title's question... What makes a mature anime? That anime lover sure thinks that if the anime has a lot of titties then it is qualified as a mature anime...

Well, he is not 100% right or wrong...

"How about violence? Anime that contains a lot of violence should be classified as mature anime right?? Take a look at Tokyo Ghoul or Shingeki no Kyojin, PEOPLE DIED THERE! THERE'S A LOT OF BLOOD, MUTILATED PARTS OF BODIES! "

Welp, again, it's not 100% right or wrong

In my opinion, what makes a mature anime qualified as "mature" if it has a story that is only relatable and understandable for mature audiences. Does that include sexual themes and violence? Yes, it could be. Sex is a part of our life, we can't deny its existence and it what makes us human a human. And violence or should I say aggression is one of the way to solve a problem if two of unmet paradigm clashes and didn't meet any conclusion, that's why war happens. War.. war never change.. *Fallout 3 anyone?*

To make it easier, let's classify this into genres, which are Shounen and Seinen genre
Shounen in Japanese means "A Young boy" while Seinen means "an adult man". These 2 genres are differentiated by its "target audiences". So if you see a seinen genre, it is targeted to the more mature audiences. Can younger audiences enjoy seinen genre? They could, but they can't get the same grasp like the mature audience do. That's why sometimes the younger audience misunderstand the concept that is being delivered in the Seinen genre. The same way with mature audience who watches shounen genre. They can enjoy it but sometimes they can't relate to the younger audiences' problem *like I do when I watched high school romance drama anime now*

So how about Naruto? It has violence, does it classify as a mature anime?
For me, it's big no since the kids and teenagers can relate a lot to this anime and understand this very well, The struggle to get back your homo friend who lost his ways are real yo! *pfft*

Highschool DxD? It has sexual themes, does it classify as a mature anime?
For me. it's a big no! Since, well.. there's almost no story in it.. *almost* and this anime is full of fanservice. What is a fanservice? well, it's servicing the fans! There's a lot of form of fanservice but in this context is to make the male audience pleased by giving the image to satisfy their carnal desire.

Those two series that I mentioned above are classified as shounen genre. Seinen genre use violence and sexual content as well, but there's a series that almost didn't use those two elements and relies heavily on story

Take Mushishi for example, They can deliver a great story and setting of the world in this anime which is very intriguing and makes you think without using violence or sexual content. I totally recommend this anime because this anime is so good and quite underrated and not popular since, yeah, no sexual theme or moe character to attract most people lol

Ginko FTW, Mushishi probably one of the best underrated anime I've ever seen. The soundtrack is awesome too

Maybe some of you guys asked, "Why you choose Naruto as an example? There's a lot of anime that has more gore and violence in it!"

The thing is, Naruto is very popular series and you (including me as well) can accept the tonality of violence or sexual content of a certain anime, but how about the other people?

The tonality of acceptance of the sexual or the violence content depends on where you are actually. Here in Indonesia, even Naruto's violent action sequence is heavily censored by our local television. Even Spongebob Squarepants got censored for god's sake!

She wears a bra and blurred out by our TV, WHO'D TURNED ON BY THIS SERIOUSLY!? WTF

So what makes a mature anime is mature for you guys? :D
