The best part of osomatsu's 8 billion aus is how often people get swindled by it. Oh sorry, this cool fanart is not ocs or something cool. It's the loser gooner show. Sorry.

it's like. no, the incredibly in-depth and well-done characterizations and themes are real. they're true. but they're most effective BECAUSE you don't expect them to be there. if you go in expecting a poop and shit anime you will be blown away by karamatsu's character depth. however if you go in expecting karamatsu character depth. you will be very underwhelmed by the poop and shit anime.

and then the extremely cool AUs build off of this wealth of character depth potential which is yet another layer of removal from reality. and then because you cant actually experience the canon of the AUs due to EOS/language barrier you're left with the base source material. the poop and shit anime

#ask #i think if i had been in-depth exposed to osomatsu-san before i watched it for myself i would not have cared about it #like i didnt know ANYTHING going in beyond a broad recollection of tumblr's karamatsu obsession in 2016 #me going in with 0 expectations is why it was able to sucker punch me so bad. my guard was down #but this also means i cannot recommend it to anyone because that is Setting An Expectation #well except my beautiful oomfie who went straight for the bait i set under the box held up by a stick #blows a kiss @awittlebabyboy i wuv you thank you for falling for my sawtrap #them aside this would not have worked on anyone else though.
