I don't get offended when called a weaboo, nor do I consider it an insult. But it depends on how you define weaboo. Now, my weaboo powerlevel is one of the highest in this part of europe, and I would like to declare the title ''Undefeated Of The East(ern Block)'' as my title. But I don't follow the weaboo mindset of Japan = greatest in every way. Japan has given me many things I truly enjoy, but it, for the most part, has also created shit I don't like. I don't think all anime is awesome and great. And the past few years have been pretty damn bad.
For instance, in 2009, there were two anime I really enjoyed, and those were Shin Mazinger and Hajime No Ippo New Challenger. Those two were respectively a remake of a nearly 40 year old anime that is a love letter to nostalgia by the master of nostalgia, Yasuhiro Imagawa based off of the works of possibly the greatest mangaka to ever live (Go Nagai, you uneducated monkeyfucks) and a sequel to an anime from 2002 based off of a manga that has been running for a good 20 years by now.
Last year was even worse, the only thing I really enjoyed was Panty & Stocking With Garterbelt, which kind of polarizes most neckbeardprinces on /a/.
Now check this shit mah nigs.
This is the next season line up. You might expect me to say that this is the worst thing ever, but let me blow your mind my saying that this is the best season I've seen in atleast 2 years, if not just since there's a new season of Kaiji. Fuck yes I'm going to get my dose of pointy noses, mullets, crying and gambling. I'll probably watch Hyogue Mono since I like my sengoku era shit. I might also watch Showa Monogatari, since I'm an old man at heart. Dororon Enma-kun is some Go Nagai shit, which is awesome but honestly I'd prefer a sequel to Shin Mazinger or maybe some Getter up in this bitch. Also Ao No Exorcist, since that sounds like equal parts Soul Eater and Ichiban Ushiro No Daimao. Oh and shit, Toriko is up in this bitch. It's an anime about a dude who beats up animals and eats them, so obviously I think it's the greatest thing ever. Oh hell, I think I might watch Tiger & Bunny since it might be fun.
Now, none of those are quite ''OH SHIT YES YES YES YES YES'' for me, but atleast it's better than the squirts of dark yellow piss that were the last two seasons.
Now look at this fucking shit. This was the last season. It was entirely catering to the sexual fustrations of the average otaku gigantor, that I kind of want to call Hiranos in honor of the Hellsing creator, who looks like a fat otaku gigantor, and maybe also in honor of Aya Hirano, a target of fat otaku gigantors, who I wish death upon atleast 3 times before breakfast.
No but seriously, look at that fucking shit. It's all catering to fat, smelly mysoginists who have lost all will to talk to real girls and instead have turned to lusting after 2D girls who are underaged. And in turn, to fully subject themselves to the universe of the objects of their perversion, they have to make useless everymen with a bland, forgetable personality counterbalanced by some awesome power (like the faggot from Infinite Stratos, Touma from Railgun/Index or Gayloosh, I mean, Lelouche from Code Gayass). The Hiranos might say ''Well what do you want? Goku or some shit? Faggot, Goku is a terrible character''.
Goku can atleast be called a character with an actual personality, sure, it consists of three phases (''I'm hungry!'' ''I train!'' ''I fight some dude for the sake of the universe and because I like fighting!''), but hey, alteast he's a rolemodel in some aspects since he does the right thing. The guy in Ore No Imouto is just some useless incestious fucker that holds back from pounding his useless sister in her stupid ass only due to censors and the fact that if they did that, it would just be a 2 episode hentai anime instead of a 12 episode TV anime with shit like image song CDs.
Furthermore, there's also not a lot of female characters who are much more than lust objects for said Hiranos. Their defining characteristics are the largeness (or smallness) of their breasts and other design elements fitted to appeal to smelly Hiranos of various sexual preferences (that are, no doubt, largely irrelevant to the future of their sexlives unless it goes terribly, terribly wrong). Panty and Stocking atleast did a spin on that by using that for self-aware perverted jokes that the characters themselves were aware of. Shit like Ore no Imouto is just vouyerism that the Hiranos engage IRL when stalking Seiyuu. Fuck Hiranos.
Ehh... I don't really know how to finish this post, to be honest, so let's leave it at that.
