That was a dumb pun admittedly, but if you didn't like the first episode, go away and don't come back. This show isn't for autists.

It's a boring shitty unimportant job and people who do it are largely replaceable.

>trying to troll bartender

I didn't like Bartender either and dropped it a few episodes in.

I was bored as fuck while watching Aria. I forced myself through the whole first season and completely disliked it. I do believe such talk is heresy around here. Or at least it was last time I brought it up.

Something to do with the kind of person you are I guess. (in my case, I am Satan apparently)

It's a lost art. There are a few bartenders like that in the world, but you'll have to find them and you'll pay a lot for the privilege. And their bars will usually be too busy for them to be able to spend too much time with you.

This is probably the closest you'll get. I've sat at his bar and he's really good: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gJV-O1e10z8

Basing an entire series around mixing alcoholic drinks is just really boring.

Mixing drinks and drinking alcohol is just a pastime. Taking it seriously like the anime is massive a waste of time!

Before I start answering you seriously, I must ask a question. What is your favorite anime?

>>55332965
Some people really like spirits and cocktails, and spend a lot of time learning about the history and mythology that surrounds them and their craft. Combine that love with a good slice-of-life and great music, and you've got a great recipe. I'm sorry you didn't enjoy it as much as I did.

>>55333027

How is it a good slice of life? Bartending is the most fucking boring job in the world.

It's about a guy who mixes drinks and listens to people's problems. What can be more boring than that?

Is there even any character development?

Anime is a medium, not a genre. Of course there'll be works that you don't like, as well as works that you like. Your taste isn't defined by what anime other people like. Likewise, their taste isn't defined by yours. How about you decide for yourself whether you like this show or not? If you already found it boring, then I swear to Madoka that your life will not get any worse if you decide to skip an anime series that you watch for entertainment.

tl;dr nobody cares about your tastes.

>>55333288

I dropped this anime because its so fucking boring. I want to know why you find it so damn exciting.

That's not my main complaint.

It's just boring. Anime should have a meaningful message and it should have decent character development.

>>55335708
It has one each and every episode.

>>55335751

Like what? What was the moral message in the first episode?

Bartender is a slice of life, and a damn good one.
Most of you have never been to a bar, and the ones that have most likely went to some shitty sports bar or a "club".
The cocktail lounge setting provides the prefect atmosphere for the stories to be told and conveyed well.
Its simple, a drink, and a story. If you can't appreciate this refined and cultured series then go watch loli oppai #13544675876978 or whatever moe shit you swine are into.

This is the same guy who though JJBA adventure was the same as every other Shonen Fighting manga, isn't it?

Regardless Bartender is in fact awesome, probably one of about 3 anime I have bothered to rewatch.

Some business man can't design a fucking bar. He goes to a bar and has a drink. What is so interesting about that?

1) The "healing power" of alcohol is a well-established theme in literature and entertainment.
2) Did you hate Cheers, too?

That said, Bartender is not for everyone, but you don't need to be an idiot about it.

Bartender is one of my top favorite anime. If you don't like it because it moves too slowly or whatever, it just isn't for you and you should go back to watching Bleach or whatever.

The music in this show is just too gorgeous for words either.

>>55335915
what's so fun about being anything? we all die? any anime based on normal life is actually quite boring based upon normal life?

>>55335917
>1) The "healing power" of alcohol is a well-established theme in literature and entertainment.

The "life-ruining" power of alcohol is rather more well documented in my humble opinion.

>2) Did you hate Cheers, too?

No idea what that is.

>That said, Bartender is not for everyone, but you don't need to be an idiot about it.

>>55335946

Well I couldn't hack it.

My fundamental problem is that the message of the series is this:

"You can solve all your problems by drinking really hard".

I just hate that message. These are the REAL effects of alcohol:

Impaired memory and comprehension
Delayed reactions
Ataxia; balance difficulty; unbalanced walk
Blurred vision; other senses may be impaired
Profound confusion
Emotional lability
Impaired senses
Analgesia
Increased ataxia; impaired speech; staggering
Dizziness often associated with nausea ("the spins")

Strokes
brain lesions

alcohol related dementia
insomnia
major depressive disorder
cravings and irritability
Whilst alcohol initially helps social phobia or panic symptoms, with longer term alcohol misuse can often worsen social phobia symptoms and can cause panic disorder to develop or worsen, during alcohol intoxication and especially during the alcohol withdrawal syndrome.

Alcohol use increases the risk of chronic gastritis (stomach inflammation);[106][107] it is one cause of cirrhosis, hepatitis, and pancreatitis in both its chronic and acute forms.

Alcohol is a leading cause of liver cancer in the Western world, accounting for 32-45% of hepatic cancers. Up to half a million people in the United States develop alcohol related liver cancer.

http://www.guardian.co.uk/science/2011/mar/07/safe-level-alcohol-consumption

There is no such thing as a safe level of alcohol consumption

The idea that drinking small amounts of alcohol will do you no harm is a myth. The myth of a safe level of drinking is a powerful claim. It is one that many health professionals appear to believe in and that the alcohol industry uses to defend its strategy of making the drug readily available at low prices. However, the claim is wrong and the supporting evidence flawed.

>still replying to the tripfag troll

folks, please don't do this anymore, it's too nice a night to waste it responding to a tripfag whose every single post (and indeed, this very thread) has been nothing more than an attempt to aggravate you.

There is no safe dose of alcohol for these reasons:

• Alcohol is a toxin that kills cells such as microorganisms, which is why we use it to preserve food and sterilise skin, needles etc. Alcohol kills humans too. A dose only four times as high as the amount that would make blood levels exceed drink-driving limits in the UK can kill. The toxicity of alcohol is worsened because in order for it to be cleared from the body it has to be metabolised to acetaldehyde, an even more toxic substance. Any food or drink contaminated with the amount of acetaldehyde that a unit of alcohol produces would be immediately banned as having an unacceptable health risk.

• Although most people do not become addicted to alcohol on their first drink, a small proportion do. As a clinical psychiatrist who has worked with alcoholics for more than 30 years, I have seen many people who have experienced a strong liking of alcohol from their very first exposure and then gone on to become addicted to it. We cannot at present predict who these people will be, so any exposure to alcohol runs the risk of producing addiction in some users.

>>55336496
>Real, independent studies have proven that alcohol is a poison at any dose or concentration.
[citation needed] + links

• The supposed cardiovascular benefits of a low level of alcohol intake in some middle-aged men cannot be taken as proof that alcohol is beneficial. To do that one would need a randomised trial where part of this group drink no alcohol, others drink in small amounts and others more heavily. Until this experiment has been done we don't have proof that alcohol has health benefits. A recent example of where an epidemiological association was found not to be true when tested properly was hormone replacement therapy. Population observations suggested that HRT was beneficial for post-menopausal women, but when controlled trials were conducted it was found to cause more harm than good.

• For all other diseases associated with alcohol there is no evidence of any benefit of low alcohol intake – the risks of accidents, cancer, ulcers etc rise inexorably with intake.

Hopefully these observations will help bring some honesty to the debate about alcohol, which kills up to 40,000 people a year in the UK and over 2.25 million worldwide in the latest 2011 WHO report.

We must not allow apologists for this toxic industry to pull the wool over our eyes with their myth of a safe alcohol dose, however appealing it might be to all us so-called "safe" drinkers. Remember these words of a man whose great family wealth and influence was built on illegal alcohol:

"The great enemy of the truth, is very often not the lie – deliberate, contrived and dishonest – but the myth – persistent, persuasive and unrealistic. Belief in myths allows the comfort of opinion without the discomfort of thought." John F Kennedy

Actually, it's not the alcohol. It supposedly is the antioxidants in red wine for example. So alc-free redwine or de-sugared grape juice might have the same effect, it's just that not a significant fraction of the population drinks that so they don't show up in any statistics.

I worked in a bar as cultural rite of passage (Ireland).
There were old guys who really needed to talk as their wives were dead or impaired.

I watched Bartender while I was working there, and made me think barkeeping could be a vocation for some. I wasn't a natural, but some people take hospitality and shelter to an artform. Irish bars are different, as you can eat, sleep and drink in the same building.

>>55337152
So your a politician?

>>55337190
Well, no one can disagree with this. Right everyone?

>>55337241
What's the point in asking that question? We all know the answer.

Come the fuck on, you know he's a troll.

Admittedly, it's nice to argue with a troll but to do it over Bartender? You deserve this, stupid assholes.

Look what we have here. People who can't refute my argument who resort to calling me a troll.

How about you prove that alcohol is NOT poisonous, or that drinking it helps you think more clearly?

You can't. I've won this argument. 60 posts ago.

>>55337325
Why I waste my time to argue with you?

Gaytender fans like to pretend their anime is deep and intellectual when it's verbose garbage that would bore any normal person to tears, with its long rants about the history of alcoholic beverages, random characters' inane and irrelevant stories, the one-dimensional characters and the lack of any character development through the series.

>>55337325
It's still unrelated shit.

>>55337495

No you don't. What you need to do is take off your bias and view this anime objectively, and see the shit for what it is.

According to David Nutt, you will die in several years.Abstain.

bartender
also bar-tender; 1836, Amer.Eng., from bar (n.2) + agent noun of tend (2).

>>55337519
At least he can actually 'view' it. You can't.

Every anime is shit once you start studying why it is not a masterpiece.
I can swear if I named a random anime you'd bash it for anything. And of course you won't ever tell us what a good anime is like, or what's your favorite anime, because then we'd show you how it's shit wehen we look at it from your point of view and your game would end.

The anime even gets its etymology wrong.

It doesn't even know what "tend" means. Fucking fail.

>show about bartenders
>doesn't know the etymology behind the word bartender

Fucking retarded.

>>55337588
>talks about a series
>hasn't watched the series

Dude, you've been posting here for 4 fucking hours nonstop. Don't you have a life outside bashing what other people enjoy?

>>55337562

>Every anime is shit once you start studying why it is not a masterpiece.

Completely wrong.

I look at every anime objectively and I ask many questions, including but not limited to:

What message does it deliver?
Are the characters likeable and realistic?
Is there meaningful character development?

>I can swear if I named a random anime you'd bash it for anything. And of course you won't ever tell us what a good anime is like, or what's your favorite anime, because then we'd show you how it's shit wehen we look at it from your point of view and your game would end.

Wrong.

Go back and read my posts and you shall find that I am a very objective anime reviewer.

>>55337640
Try being objective after watching it.

You have 3 more months to do this before it's 2012 and then I seriously hope you won't have wasted the whole year not ignoring trollfags.

Why Bartender is shit:

1. Drinking is not good for you, at any dosage or concentration. Bartender promotes the false idea that drinking solves your problems when it only exacerbates them.

2. The idea that if you escape from your problems by drinking and going to a bar, then they will automatically be solved! Completely false.

3. The idea that a bartender can solve all your problems and is the ultimate magical therapist. Absolutely incorrect. Bartender's message is that you should give up on solving problems yourself and go to a random stranger to solve your problems.

>>55337715

That's a good summary.

Wrong. It doesn't promote this. You'd know it if you actually watched it.
>2
Wrong again. Drinking isn't the main focus of the show. You're thinking too much about the 'message'.
>3
Wrong again.

>>55337715
4 hours and still continuing at it. Think you can keep this up 2 more hours? Then you've spent 1/4 of the day only posting the same stuff over and over at /a/ in hopes of validating your subjective opinion on a show people generally seem to enjoy!

That would be so sad if it wasn't a bit impressive.

Where you about to try and samefage but still kept your trip?

What a bore. Where are the old Haibane vs Aria / Kino vs Mushishi threads?

>message of the show

you can't troll any harder than this.
Bartender is the single most doesn't-have-a-message anime there is. It's just pure, 100%, relaxation-for-men anime. You don't need to think about anything while watching it.

I'd tanasinn your shitty thread, but I have a workout to do. In 45 minutes I should be done with it though.
Maybe I'll do it.

>>55337822
>Have several exactly similar pictures cropped differently to post in threads as a generic response

That's the saddest thing i've seen on /a/ since LJ

>>55337640
You do realize most anime aren't even out to deliver a central message but are simply there to entertain? For most people, that's enough to deem it as good without resorting to a checklist of what makes a show objectively good or not. I would respect you more as a reviewer if you simply restricted your judgements to the show in question and left the respective fanbases out of the discussion.

/a/, please stop being so predictable. It's getting very sad.

>>55337888

In other words it's just moeshit.

It's fine if you like it or use it to relax, but don't pretend it's a masterpiece, because it's not.

>>55338112
You wouldn't know anyway.

>>55337923

I am not entertained by shows without a meaningful message.

>>55338125

I have read the summary so I have a pretty good idea.

>>55338142
Are you....serious? Oh wait.

Yes I am serious and also I have watched the first episode

>>55338193
Uh-huh. So, this entire thread is an argument on the quality of wikipedia's summary of Bartender. I see.

Meh- this tripfag in particular is dumb as fuck.

You people taking him seriously is funny, though.

homu thread.

Actually I'm just testing out my new keyboard

>>55338253
It's better than what we currently have.

Why is she so perfect?

>>55338253
What is there to test out in a keyboard? Are the keys being pushed down correctly or what?

>>55338112
I never called it a masterpiece.

>>55338129
Well that's fine for you, but not everyone has the same expectations as you do. You should try to understand this fact if you ever plan on people taking your judgements seriously.

All of my meguka's

>>55338328
The keys push down very easily, compared to my old one, I'll have to type with less force than what I'm used to.

Thread over. Argument concluded.

>>55338390
What do you think everyone?

>>55338440
This argument is 1000x better if you read it in your mind in her voice

>>55338440

Bartender is meaningless shit, but some people enjoy it regardless.

>>55338390
After just 4 hours and 30 minutes? Come on, it's not like you suddenly have a life, you know?

>>55338240
>>55338390
I demand an answer before you conclude it.

Homu Homu is awesome btw

>>55338335
The tripfag was never out to be taken seriously in the first place. Let it be, BJiY is an attention-whore.

Who homo here?

And you have not answered my questions.
Also you immediately flip flopped your stance to "Convince me to watch it" >> 55331749 to "I'm not watching it" >>55333328 to winning a non-existent argument here >>55334843.

Here >>55335950, you clearly don't understand what "healing power" is in the
context of that sentence.


I have a question to ask at here >>55335993
How many drinks (with 1 drink being a shot,
beer, mixed drink or glass of wine) were consumed in the First episode you watched?


There's an unimportant statement at
>>55336079 about the lights because it
doesn't recognize the difference of classic
bar such as viewed in Bartender and the
modern Dance club type bar.

What exactly is your point here >>55336179
in relation to the comment replied. And don't repeat "drink themselves to death". We've
already established that.

>>55336794
BTW, I see no magic involved in that description.

>>55337519
How can you say that if you've only watched
one episode? Sounds like a hypocritical
statement. That's like watching 5 minutes
of movie and saying it sucks. One episode
is only a small view of an overall picture.
