exposition can be fun. depends on how it's handled

2018-10-15 05:21:38 UTC  

It's a consequence of the source material, yeah

2018-10-15 05:21:44 UTC  

are there any animes that dont rely on it?

2018-10-15 05:21:58 UTC  

it's too tedious for me

there are very few that simply 'show' everything, as it can be extremely difficult to get a point across with only images in most shows

2018-10-15 05:22:52 UTC  

It's even worse in games because playing it is the point

2018-10-15 05:23:01 UTC  

And exposition gets in the way of that

2018-10-15 05:23:04 UTC  

plus, anime plots tend to be... weird

2018-10-15 05:23:28 UTC  

To be fair, it's not just anime that gets heavy handed with the exposition.

2018-10-15 05:23:44 UTC  

American comics are really bad about it too.

2018-10-15 05:23:47 UTC  

tbh im fine with it. most shows know that its annoying, and make it quick and/or funny

2018-10-15 05:24:15 UTC  

Actually, the thing that pisses me off in anime isn't exposition. It's filler.

2018-10-15 05:24:16 UTC  

OH.... show that doesnt do that: one punch man. go watch that

2018-10-15 05:24:26 UTC  

he actually makes people skip exposition

2018-10-15 05:24:32 UTC  

cause he's heard it all

2018-10-15 05:24:41 UTC  

Oh yes

2018-10-15 05:24:45 UTC  

Filler is cancer

2018-10-15 05:24:48 UTC  

i watched 3 episodes, didnt care or it

2018-10-15 05:24:49 UTC  

You've got to skip the filler

2018-10-15 05:24:58 UTC  

ah, too bad. very good show

2018-10-15 05:25:05 UTC  

I enjoyed it

2018-10-15 05:25:11 UTC  

Like in Dragon Ball Z, when a fight is absorbed by about 20 minutes of sidelined faggots gasping.

2018-10-15 05:25:19 UTC  

lol

2018-10-15 05:25:27 UTC  

lol, that was due to budget problems

2018-10-15 05:25:37 UTC  

dragonball z has a looooot of financial issues

2018-10-15 05:25:42 UTC  

at the beginning

2018-10-15 05:25:42 UTC  

gotta check on goku, and see what he is doing

2018-10-15 05:25:43 UTC  

Which is surprising

2018-10-15 05:25:55 UTC  

Given the popularity of the source material

2018-10-15 05:26:00 UTC  

it cost SO munch money, they had to hire D list voice actors

2018-10-15 05:26:00 UTC  

I can't even watch vanilla Dragonball Z any more. I just do not have the patience.

2018-10-15 05:26:13 UTC  

If I watch Dragon Ball, it's going to be the original series.

2018-10-15 05:26:20 UTC  

and those same actors are now all experts, and legendary, cause of DBZ

2018-10-15 05:26:50 UTC  

the show was good, but the i think the live action movie really did it right

2018-10-15 05:26:51 UTC  

thats dragonball

2018-10-15 05:26:52 UTC  

Yeah, that's Dragon Ball.

2018-10-15 05:27:01 UTC  

gt?

2018-10-15 05:27:19 UTC  

and yes, it was better written. it was supposted to end at the end of dragonball, but the artist's fans made him continue

2018-10-15 05:27:37 UTC  

Dragon Ball is actually fucking hilarious.

2018-10-15 05:27:50 UTC  

and so he made dragonball Z, up to the frieza arc... which was when it was supposed to end again
