It's not popular. I saw a guy on tiktok mention it and I decided and to try it and I was satisfied. If you don't mind please list out the obscure anime you've seen.

It's less that it's not popular and more that it's old and not mainstream. The first season aired in 2005 and last entry was 2015, nearly a decade ago. Even Dororo, one of the popular anime of 2019, and some other shows are slowly fading into the background just 5 years after they aired.

Anyways, check out;
- Ping Pong the Animation
- Flying Witch
- Kino no Tabi
- Canaan
- Fooly Cooly
- Heike Monogatari
- Jormungadr

February 11th. I'll be there

Wetin dis people dey cook like this....😭😭

Setting it up for failure. Why? Even me no understand again. Anyways, anti-woke YouTubers go use this one make Christmas money

Brokeloser:
90% done with Mushishi and I can guarantee it's a banger.Solid 10/10 anime. It's one of those obscure anime that few people know and even fewer have watched and honestly you'd be doing yourself a great disservice by not watching.

Mushishi praise on this thread. Not something I was expecting this year. Glad to see you doing the Lord's work

IngeniousLeez:
E be like say powers that be no want make Una see this update... 😭😅

Na fit watch films for cheap if na true sha for 1k.

Make them try run am again when Sonic 3 releases

Lana1:
And there were people here who thought the show was mid because they didn't get action every other episode. A moment of silence for them

The next move will probably be to label it forgettable and lie that people don't care about or discuss it

Silentgroper:


arcane isn't ..

blue eyed samurai is cool too ... even though I'm on the 4th episode...

They aren't anime, though. But that dude is still wrong

Make them run am. I wan check something

Phantom5tranger:
Some of the gift for SUPERMAN casts and crew

I need that jacket desperately

OhBritannia:
Omor i just realised that these baddas and scary horsemen are yet to show up in the rings of power.

For real!!! this even makes me more excited the more.
Please release season 3 and 4 for us, we can't wait anymore. Lol

These are the 9 kings of men that were given the 9 rings which consumed them. Considering that they haven't even forged the 7 rings for the dwarves, you ain't seeing these guys any time soon

pu7pl3:


Abeg Abeg
Them no even get reproductive organs WYM. Before this show have you heard of any female orc? Even in the books?

Imagine say female orc come see Legolas 😁😁

pu7pl3:


I've been following the show oh. Laboured to finish season 1 out of my love for the original franchise and watched the first 3 episodes of season 2 before I decided to stop deceiving myself☹️

You don try. Can't be adding stress to your life for this economy

abduleez1:



Wetin our country people dey follow us watch like dis. 🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️

Person wey Tolkien himself said Eru Illuvatar said is his fairest being in Middle Earth.

When this one become Tolkiendil laidis? Cos casuals no know Illuvatar

Illusioneffect:

No, but the writers of the game made the show too so I can see where the mid-ness came from

Ah! So just plain hating then. Should have been straight and upfront with it from the start

Illusioneffect:

Exactly- you think so, I don't agree with you 🤷🏽‍♂️, I think it's a mid storyline just like every league of Legends game plotline - great characters - mid story unlike games with great plots like the Last of Us and GTA V. finalizar

Are we talking about the games or the TV show? Cos it's starting to sound like your bias against LoL is what leaked over to Arcane.

pu7pl3:


No hipop verses?

There'll definitely be. A few of the names we don't know on there are rappers. It's a Riot project. Every major music genre will be represented

abduleez1:


You beat me to it sha....

D4vd and Twenty One Pilots wey I see I know say na premium we're in for. Yeah, I'm still struggling to see how they'll beat out the quality that S1 set.

Stray Kids will be bringing the anime folks to the yard. I'm personally looking forward to what Stromae, Ashnikko and Woodkid have cooked.

The lineup for the soundtrack of Arcane S2 is looking amazing but I don't know how anybody here is going to top the awesomeness from the season 1 OST that is 🎶 What Could Have Been? 🎶 by Sting and Ray Chen.

Anyways, bangers up on bangers are definitely assured

Illusioneffect:

👀👀 forgettable characters is not the same thing as characters with forgettable names- I remember every character from blue eye Samurai but not their names

👀👀 forgettable story is not the same as story you forgot. I also remember every plotline from Arcane's story.

joseph1832:
ItS just there, the only thing I like about Onimusha is the sword fights, Blue Eye Samurai is way better

From the little I gathered about Onimusha, Arcane is easily leagues above it. So if you weren't that disappointed by Onimusha, there's little doubt you'd be impressed with Arcane

Let's dance

joseph1832:
compaRe it to Blue Eye Samurai and Onimusha?

Haven't watched either. Did you like Onimusha, though?

joseph1832:
Is Arcane that good? I don't want to bore myself to death downloading something I'll regret.

Can easily guarantee that it won't bore you, talk more of to death, and you won't regret it.

Illusioneffect:

Wait! What??😂😂😂 TikTok wasn't a thing in 2020- the place where people where having 50 million subscribers in months and everyone was on TikTok because of the virus. I can't count how many edits of that Arcane younger sister I saw on TikTok and YouTube at that time.
Talking of blue eye Samurai, you can forget the names of the character esp because they're not even English but you can't forget what the story is about and besides that's how modern streaming series are right now tho. We just haven't spent enough time with the characters to remember their names, that isn't a story problem. There was a time when a season of a show was 16-24 episodes- it'ld look like it was part of our lives 🤷🏽‍♂️ so I don't think it matters if you don't remember the characters name🤷🏽‍♂️

So doesn't this mean Blue Eye Samurai has forgettable characters?

Illusioneffect:

How does it not hold any claim?👀 Because it's my opinion or what?

Like you said, " acceptance is relative, not everyone would agree".

DeeScan:
it's easily forgettable but it's re- watchable ... I believe arcane anyone would re watch arcane again and it'd feel like they are watching for the first time...

Easily forgettable keh? Guess me and a lot of other people must have absolutely amazing memory capabilities then. Bro, how do you let anybody tell you one of the most impactful shows of this decade is forgettable?

Jarchi:



° Brodaman, Why won't we forget about it when new quality projects are coming out, and that's since 2021, I didn't know it's been that long self. A series needs 2 - 3 seasons to get people into talking and dissecting it, it needs back story to do that. We can't be dissecting a building world, it needs to establish itself. Arcane has the potential and I hope they don't destroy it. The music score alone was enough for me, °
***Jarchi***

A series doesn't need 2 to 3 seasons to get people into talking about and dissecting it. Even the pilot episode is enough to do that. We CAN be dissecting a building world. And Arcane established more than enough with the first season.

People have been discussing and dissecting it since it dropped in 2021 up till now. It has launched some people's YouTube careers. There's channels dedicated to discussing mainly or even only Arcane.

Can't believe you guys are actually even entertaining, talk more of falling for, ignorant and easily disproved fallacious statements

ReactExpress:


True but time still plays a role to denial that is just not fair. Its why you see people complaining that they forgot all about a series before a new season is released.

You remembering older series and not so much newer ones is actually in line with several studies that have been made that our attention span has deteriorated overtime. So it doesn't surprise me.

But that aside, I only asked for clarity sake. Because when I read that I was like when did arcane come out that you are comparing with blue eye samurai that I watched early this year. It just wasn't computing in my head.

But interest too plays a role not gonna lie because even the boys self proved it. We all watched it but many didn’t note Frenchy wasn't straight. It felt like a whole new thing because they likely don't totally remember everything that happened.

Along with the deterioration of attention span, there's also oversaturation of content to consider as well. We're getting way more content than we used to a decade ago. There's only so much information the human brain can assimilate and retain.

abduleez1:


Lol, Arcane is popular cos of Tik Tok. Lmao. This one na big reach. Tik Tok that wasn't really a thing until the last two years.

All these talk is recency bias. While Blue Eye Samurai is very good, I don't see it topping Arcane.

I haven't even pointed out how he's contradicting himself by saying that there's thousands of videos saying how mediocre the story of Arcane is while also claiming that the show is popular because of TikTok trends.
So how come those "thousands" of videos saying Arcane is mediocre no trend?

ReactExpress:


When did you watch arcane? When did you watch blue eyes Samurai?

Wouldn't even chalk it up more to time. I would say interest level is the main factor here.
There's movies/shows I watched a decade ago that I can still remember much about them even though I haven't rewatched them since and then there's movies/shows I watched recently that I can barely remember some things about them.

Illusioneffect:

Like always - acceptance is relative - not everyone would agree.

So I hope you also see why your claim holds no water.

Illusioneffect:

Oga not just me🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️ there're thousands of video saying how mediocre the arcane story is. The animation is excellent - even the story is well told but the story is very forgettable. It's over hyped bro- most of the reason Arcane is really popular is TikTok trends, you can't compare the story of Blue Eye Samurai to Arcane because of how interesting and really original the story is

If I told you there were thousands of videos saying how mediocre the story of Breaking Bad is, would you agree and accept that it's overhyped?
