Rivailloli already answered for me, but to confirm, I personally enjoy having a couple shows to hatewatch every season. It gives me a morbid kind of pleasure to watch something that's utterly terrible and never manages to rise above that. Chaos Dragon, Sailor Moon Crystal and Mayoiga are perfect examples of this. Dimension W became that when it started self-destructing halfway through. Super Lovers was a show I wanted to like because I had faith in it based on what I'd heard from the manga, and by gods I hoped that we'd get better BL anime than the usual Nakamura crap, but the show got more gross by the week while remaining astonishingly boring. Once I realized it wasn't gonna get better, I figured I'd settle for morbidly enjoying how terrible it could be. Funnily, I tend to look forward to shows I hatewatch quite a lot, it's a very special, schadenfreude-ish kind of enjoyment. On that note the "don't like don't watch" sentiment is ridiculous and I'm sick of hearing it. If that's your philosophy, good for you, but don't go around telling people what they should or shouldn't watch. |

If you're looking forward to shows that you "hatewatch", you're not "suffering through it" |

I really don't get why you're trying to jump down my throat because I told someone to take their own advice, but okay?
This is an issue of semantics and literally, what does it even matter how who uses what word for their weird enjoyment/lack of for something? The words are used to evoke a more comedic response going by their context and the fact that using negative words fits into today's "standard" internet humor. It's an obvious joke. Laugh or move on. |

I'm a big fan of Yamamoto Kotetsuko too and I love almost all her series, specially ''Honto Yajuu'' and ''Konya mo Nemurenai''. I do also think that at least one of her works deserves to be animated, but I really don't think it's fair to judge something you know so little about, I mean SERIOUSLY. All of you just know that one of them is a student and one of them is a teacher. You don't know ANYTHING about the story. From what I read two or one year ago (I checked the raws and also the 'prequel', which is about Setagawa Masahiro's (blond dude a.ka. the uke) friend). Setagawa Masahiro and Ooshiba Kousuke have known each other since before, because Kousuke's the older brother of Kensuke (Masahiro's best friend). So they've known each other since two years ago or something like that(?) Before he dyed his hair to blonde xD So you could say they are friends or more like they are close(?) Kousuke just happens to teach at his brother's and Masahiro's school, so he's not a ''predator'' or some shit like that. I can guarantee you that this is completely consensual and the seme's not a creep. Also Kousuke used to be a ''delinquent'' before becoming a teacher, and when Masahiro's was having trouble with a gang which he called ''friends'' but they were just treating him like some errand boy, he kind of saved him from them. Hence, the title: ''Hitorijime my Hero'' Overall the plot isn't anything special, it's simple, but it's not generic or just fluff like many of you think it is (Junjou Romantica has sex basically every ''effin chapter and NO ONE complains. There is not much story either. Same with Sekaiichi Hatsukoi) (Not saying they are bad or anything, I'm just pointing out the double standards) Then again, it's cute af. Masahiro and Kousuke are just simply too cute and pure. Also, in my opinion, it keeps getting better by each volume. There are currently 4 volumes (Thy are not translated, tough. Unfortunately) Also there are no sex scenes. I mean... there are (In the first volume there's just one at the end), but they don't really show much, so it's more shounen ai than yaoi. Which is better in my opinion, since shounen ai mangas tend to have an ACTUAL story. Leaving that aside, I hope that it's an anime and not an OVA. Tough I'm sure it's going to be an anime, since it really sold well in Japan and the chapter's are quite long. And Yaoi OVA's tend to be +18, anyway. So it's either a movie (very unlikely) or an anime. |

I mean they knew each other before Kousuke became a teacher. Also, Kousuke was in love with Masahiro before he also became a teacher. Things like that can happen, think Macron and his wife, I am not saying this is something I agree with but their relationship to me seem more acceptable than some other one portrayed out there.
