GUILTY PLEASURES THREAD

#1

Post by Apollo the Just » Thu Feb 21, 2013 12:48 am

im making this thread because i have something to confess

I've been watching Yu-Gi-Oh! [the 4kids dub obviously] for 'teh awful dubz lawl' and...

...I have slowly come to the realization that....

...I'm enjoying it completely and utterly unironically and for entirely the wrong reasons.

It is the guiltiest pleasure of them all.

BUT since it doesn't get much worse than 100% legitimately enjoying yugioh you all dont have much to worry about so COME ON AND FESS UP WHAT DO YOU ENJOY THAT YOU REALLY REALLY SHOULDNT

Hey, that show is okay. Actually, some episodes are epic. Marik and Bakura are badasses.

I honestly can't say I do like anything poor quality. Most anime is pretty bad and a lot of it's painful to watch.
I muttered 'light as a board, stiff as a feather' for 2 days straight and now I've ascended, ;aughing at olympus and zeus is crying

^^ I basically just white knighted a kids cartoon, so I think I have confessed enough, indirectly. =P

^ Yeah, a ton of anime is waaay bad. Crackle proved this to me.

I still watch Pucca a lot.

Wait a minute, I don't feel guilty about that.

Does Nyoro~n Churuya-San count? Because I think it's amazing but a lot of people don't seem to like it.

The Super Hero Squad Show. It's an official parody of the Marvel Universe for kids, the characters are all drawn almost in a chibi style, and there's lots of padding...but I still find it incredibly entertaining to watch. I'm not sure why. Maybe it's because it's pretty well written once you get past the immature gags, the characters are all portrayed pretty well, there's LOTS of obscure references to things and characters only longtime fans of the comics will get (I flipped out when Phil Sheldon showed up at the end of the first season). It's definitely an affectionate parody produced by people who love the source material.

Also, it's not a cartoon or anime, but I love Power Rangers. Especially Mighty Morphin.

^ MMPR was my favorite thing as a kid, maybe even more than TMNT. So when they had a crossover I flipped.

^ Well, anything after Power Rangers in Space is pretty inferior, so maybe liking the new stuff should be shameful.
