>>9767279Before the late 00s, early 10s liking anime was mostly seen as a negative within the community. The cultural shift of that era has turned what was once mocked and ridiculed into actual fads.
Communities that once mocked it are trying hard to catch up on the same fads today that would once take away your black card yesterday so now they are overcompensating to make up for years of calling it stupid.
The result is an influx of a massively entry level generation of blacks who only really know about shounen and are blown away by the handling and presentation of the medium after years of only knowing western slop.
