That was kinda the premise of the show.

I thought it was: "Everyone can be cured of what ails them, and when they can't at least they can find it what's going on. It only takes the full time dedication of four doctors."

memes aside, this argument is batshit insane. You can watch an anime without having read the manga. You can like derivative works without having consumed the source material. It's ok. let people like things

but how can I achieve this smug feeling of superiority and self-satisfaction if I can not gatekeep stuff?

[–] glitchdx@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

by liking better stuff than what other people like

Sorry for the late getting to this but I've got over 500 messages in my fuckin' inbox...

I'm with you. The behavior is genuinely one reason why I haven't bothered with a lot of anime. The few times I have I've been criticisized like a motherfucker for it being dubbed over subbed or a certain version or whatever and I got exhausted and checked out entirely.

This is part of the reason why I do not engage in online communities related to shows and games and movies that I am currently experiencing or intending on experiencing soon.

sadly, this does mean that I don't get to talk to people about cool shit, but that's better than shitty exchanges with people I'll never meet.

I thought it was 'what if Sherlock Holmes was a physician, like Arthur Conan Doyle was.

House = Holmes Wilson = Watson
