Cute, helpless girls made to suffer. Homura in the flashback. Extremely shy girl with a heart disease? Give me a break.

Oh my fucking god, are you serious? You're reaching so hard right now.

DA

Magical girl anime have a proven adult male demographic, though. And seeing as Madoka had a night time slot, I'm pretty sure the show wasn't aiming at little girls.

(Anonymous) 2014-03-29 03:01 am (UTC)(link)
It wasn't aimed at little girls, of course not. I was under the impression it was aimed at adults. You know, adults in general. Even if it's specifically aimed at adult males that's not the same as being aimed at otaku. Otaku are a very small subset of adults. There's absolutely nothing to suggest it was aimed at them specifically.

(Anonymous) 2014-03-29 03:18 am (UTC)(link)
Except, y'know otaku are what the late night anime is aimed towards. No one out the niche going to go out their way to watch a late night anime.

(Anonymous) 2014-03-29 03:24 am (UTC)(link)
Lots of anime airs late at night and isn't geared toward otaku though, like basically everything in the Noitamina block.

(Anonymous) 2014-03-29 03:13 am (UTC)(link)
I honestly don't know how you can't see it. You probably haven't watched a lot of anime, especially ones with moe elements.

(Anonymous) 2014-03-29 03:29 am (UTC)(link)
You're basically saying that almost every show with young/cute girls has otaku pandering.

Also, the girls were not helpless, and their suffering wasn't fanservice because it was a fucking integral part of the plot. It wouldn't have worked without suffering. Like, it may have appealed to otaku as a peripheral demographic, in the same way that a lot of shounen shows appeal to fujoshi, but I don't see how you can say it was catered towards them in any way.

(Anonymous) 2014-03-29 03:45 am (UTC)(link)
Yeahhh, you probably haven't watched a lot of anime. That, or don't know much about otaku.
Also, noitaminA isn't a late night block.

(Anonymous) 2014-03-29 03:46 am (UTC)(link)

And even then, noitaminA has shows that pander to otaku too. Guilty Crown, anyone?

(Anonymous) 2014-03-29 03:56 am (UTC)(link)
Da

Guilty Crown isn't that good of an example. black rock shooter anime would be a better one.

(Anonymous) 2014-03-29 04:07 am (UTC)(link)
... what about Guilty Crown pandered to otaku? Seriously, that's one of the LEAST pandering shows I can think of from the last few years.

(Anonymous) 2014-03-29 04:21 am (UTC)(link)
Please, Mr amazing anime expert, explain to me why Madoka panders to otakus. Because casually dismissing me and telling me I'm wrong without giving any explanation is not doing a very good job of convincing me or anyone else.

Also a quick google tells me that Madoka aired at around 1:25am, 5 minutes later than Samurai Flamenco, 10 minutes later than Tsuritama and Guilty Crown and a bunch of other noitamina shows.

(Anonymous) 2014-03-29 05:23 am (UTC)(link)
I think 1 AM is pretty late by just about anyone's standards.
