#mainstream anime

Are mainstream shonen series like *My Hero Academia* intellectually bankrupt, or just easy scapegoats?

Is liking a popular anime actually a sign of bad taste?

Does gatekeeping actually protect anime and comics from becoming soulless corporate slop?

Is 'Death Note' actually overrated, or is it just one of the few animes normies can stomach?

Would you ever call a mainstream anime like Demon Slayer overrated?
