In a lively debate on a popular Reddit forum,
users have shared their opinions on the animes they consider the funniest . The
discussion has revealed the diversity of tastes and opinions within the
community, highlighting how the concept of comedy in anime can be extremely
subjective.
The diversity of opinions reflects the subjective
nature of what makes each person laugh. While some users praise
animes with slapstick humor and absurd situations, others prefer intelligent
humor and cultural references. This shows that anime covers a wide range of
comedy styles, from physical humor to subtle sarcasm.
Furthermore, cultural context and personal
experiences influence what each individual finds funny. What
may be hilarious to someone in one part of the world may fall flat to another
in a different region. This highlights the richness and complexity of comedy in
anime, which can be appreciated in different ways depending on each viewer's
background and preferences.
Some anime mentioned in the debate include genre
classics like “Gintama,” known for its absurdist humor and meta references;
“Nichijou,” which offers a surreal and exaggerated comedy; and “KonoSuba!”,
which combines slapstick humor with eccentric characters and hilarious
situations. However, the list is extensive and varies
depending on the individual preferences of participating users.
- « There
is only one anime that has made me laugh out loud, and it did it twice.
This is Azumanga Daioh .
- " Nichijou,
some of your jokes are very Japanese, but there are some universally
comical moments ."
- « I
don't know if Nichijou is the funniest anime ever, but it's a contender.
The art style and characters are adorable . »
- " I
would say Excel Saga, Space Dandy, and the English dub of Ghost Stories ."
- « Grand
Blue and KonoSuba! They are my options .
- " Who
are Great Teachers Onizuka and Sakamoto? "
- « For
me the most fun have been Daily Lives of Highschool Boys and Aho Girl. I
would also mention KonoSuba! ».
- " The
Great East Japan Earthquake, without a dude ."
- « You
should check out Cromartie High School, for me that and Saiki K are the
most fun .»
- « Pop
Team Epic is the ultimate anime-made shitpost. It's not for everyone, but
it probably has the most fun moments ."
- " The
great master Nozaki-kun ."
- " Detroit
Metal City, if adult humor is on the table, then that's an unknown gem ."
- « It's
sad that people have forgotten about Baka to Test to Shoukanjuu. It was
the first anime that made me laugh so much that I had to pause the episode .
- " Unpopular
opinion, but I think Way of the House Husband is the peak of comedy ."
- « Full
Metal Panic, without a doubt ».
- " Hinamatsuru,
someone had to say it ."
- " Plastic
Neesan, I assure you ."
- « In
order, Nichijou, Golden Boy and Excel Saga ».
- « Asobi
Asobase, Nichijou and Lucky Star are the three great comedy animes for me ».
- « They
already said that Saiki K, and there is nothing more popular. Although I
would also put One-Punch Man and Mob Psycho 100 ».
- « Golden
Kamuy, it's amazing that no one has mentioned it .»
- " My
Bride is a Mermaid is the funniest shit I've ever seen ."
- « Definitely
Grand Blue, I consider it very similar to Prison School in terms of the
absurdity of the humor. KonoSuba! It's also amazing, although S2 is much
more fun than S1. You could try Kanojo mo Kanojo and even The 100
Girlfriends (which starts out hilarious, in my opinion). There is nothing
that beats Prison School in terms of good humor for me, the first three
episodes are the funniest I have ever seen .
- « Detroit
Metal City, I practically cried at one point in the series of laughter ».
- " Amagi
Brilliant Park is hilarious and a good old-fashioned anime ."
