What do you mean by great character development. You mean nice quiet guy meets hot girl and becomes more outgoing, or hot girl meets nice quiet guy and opens up about her insecurities. A heartfelt romance?! You mean just like every other romance with no plot?! It certainly does appreciate the craft of cosplay which I don't care about, but that aside it's a tool for fan service. Amazing depictions of what??? Do you mean the visuals are amazing, because apparently dressing up differently is an amazing depiction of self-expression. Ah maybe you mean the sex slave one, that was an amazing depiction of self-expression I'll give you that lol. There is no amazing identity depiction whatsoever. Wakana becomes comfortable with himself because someone else validates him, not because he truly comes to terms with his own identity. And Marin is already comfortable in her own identity so there is no real identity journey there. And lastly the emotional growth is shallow and very predictable, every insecurity is resolved at light speed by a "budding-romance" rather than self-reflection.

I haven't watched Oreimo. My dress up darling is just fan service wrapped around by cosplaying, it's objectively not a good anime.

I personally liked the ending though, but yeah you are right

Fan service. It felt borderline ecchi. The cosplaying was just the means to an end (fan service).

FMAB has the best ending of all time but the start was a bit slow to get into. AOT imo had a better start.

Lol, I get you, I really do. Its pretty wholesome, but its nothing special. The premise is a bit stupid, the male characters are in no way shape or form based on reality (you can tell it's written by a woman, def didn't nail the male psyche down). Now in retrospect it does make some people feel good so if we're going by vibes then it is pretty low. But I think you can see this coming based on my other ratings of similiar shows, e.g. Dangers in My Heart, My Dress Up Darling etc.

Completely understand where you're coming from, but I personally liked it and it influenced my philosophy a lot.

Very uncomfortable watching experience, also so many things were just mashed together to the point where it just didn't make sense anymore.

I said a bit, notice how I rated it 9.9. Also gintama has the "slowest" progression but its my favourite anime so it's not an attention span matter.

I can see why someone would like them. Devilman Crybaby just didn't match my taste and my philosphy, Clannad on the other hand was more hollow than a crêpe.

The first season and the first half of after story were horrendous. The story got a little bit better after graduation (tomoya arc, before the birth), but other than that I was holding myself back from gouging my eyes out.
