I have never drank alcohol in my life.
I doubt I am missing out.

As someone who drinks occasionally and has never been drunk (probably) alcohol is okay, at least stuff like hard cider and mead. Also a shot of Wray and Nephew’s for a nightcap.

is there a reason why most people in the west refuse to take idol anime seriously? the only one that people seem to like or know is zombieland saga, and even with that show people whine and complain when it starts to get serious and focus on the characters, ending with them calling it generic

isekai and shonen cover the broadest possible demographics, they are basically made to be liked by just about anyone and are the most easily accessible so they get the broadest discussion

idols don't get as broad discussion but the fanbases are still fairly big, even series like idolm@ster that haven't done the best job making stuff available in the west compared to love live or bandori

western fans have a weird time with female character focused shows in general and its only recently that thats really started to go away, so you wind up with older fans who are still sort of in that mold. see all the posts back in the day about how madoka was owning magical girl anime, which needed to be taken to task for, some reason

but also you're vastly overstating the influence of like, reddit or whatever. love live was *massive* on tumblr and bang dream had a big western fanbase for a while. granted that one's only kind of an idol thing but still. these shows are big and are very popular in the west.

Also same, there are tons of mixed drinks that sound like they'd taste great but I know that all I'd be able to taste is the burn. I can't taste much of a difference between beer and wine.

They are still popular as far as I can tell. Their fan base just isnt as vocal or visible in the places you visit I would assume.

For me personally its not the idea of idols themselves that keeps me away from watching the shows, its that I just like a different kind of story. If you had sports idols with rocket launchers beating the hell out of robot vampires Id probably be watching them and talking about it constantly. :v:

The key is clearly to make a sports idol show where the lead is an idol singer and a hockey player. Or a fighting idol who has a magical power up that turns them into Baki during their song battles.
