Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World- (light novel)
| Hm. A typical japanese expression for shock, heard in almost every Anime ever, but a second longer than usual. That got you butthurt today?^^ Oh, well...don't let it get you down. Leave the people approving things alone, tho. They're fine. |

| That is one of the cringiest and most overused cliché in anime. |

| Typical shounen anime shock |
| That's a pretty basic reaction for japanese people. Idk why tf would anyone even have a complaint about this moment out of all of the things. |

| @GTRaijin hmmmm well it IS an expression, but no actual japanese dude would say it quite acted out like this^^ I think this is a pretty "basic" reaction for an Anime character. True. Doesn't take away from the complaint beeing stupid af, of course. |

You most likely won't hear this much exaggerated reaction in irl conversations but people still do them in japanese media, tv shows, etc. It's not that uncommon. |

| @GTRaijin Yeah. That's what I said^^ We don't need to reiterate |

| I mean im pretty sure ive heard the extended eh?? in other anime too, not weird at all. |
| it's disbelief/shock/astonishment and quite typical, it should to be prologued when used for this purpose complete explanation: “eh” (えっ or エッ) is a common expression in Japanese and is widely used in everyday conversation. Its meaning and tone can vary depending on the context and intonation. Here are some typical uses: 1. Surprise or Shock • えっ?! When something unexpected or shocking happens, “eh” can be used to express surprise or disbelief. Example: • A: 明日休みだよ。(Ashita yasumi da yo. - “Tomorrow is a holiday.”) • B: えっ?! 本当に？ (Eh?! Hontō ni? - “Eh?! Really?”) 2. Confusion or Not Understanding • えっ? When someone doesn’t hear or understand something, they might say “eh” to prompt clarification. Example: • A: あそこに行って。(Asoko ni itte. - “Go over there.”) • B: えっ? (Eh? - “Eh?” / “What?”) 3. Hesitation or Puzzlement • えっと (etto) A variation often used to buy time while thinking or hesitating, similar to “um” or “uh” in English. Example: • えっと、次はどうしよう… (Etto, tsugi wa dō shiyō… - “Um, what should I do next…”) 4. Disbelief or Skepticism • ええっ?! A prolonged “eh” with emphasis can convey disbelief or doubt. Example: • A: 宇宙旅行に行く予定だよ。(Uchū ryokō ni iku yotei da yo. - “I’m planning to go to space.”) • B: ええっ?! すごいね！(Eeh?! Sugoi ne! - “Eeh?! That’s amazing!”) Tone Matters: • A short, sharp “えっ” often signals surprise or confusion. • A prolonged “えええっ” amplifies shock or disbelief. • A softer “えっ?” might indicate someone is politely asking for clarification. It’s an essential and versatile part of Japanese communication, so you’ll encounter it often! |

Saw it personally It's cringe. Just like sudden, loud bowel movement used for purpose to shift subject of discussion into "let's eat something". Not sure which one is worse. |

His point is it's cultural and not just anime. It's also very far from cringe. Only thin cringe here is the original post
| @DayRivia I really don't care about whether it is a cultural thing or not. In anime it is unbearably cringe and definitely does not translate when used as a comic relief. It basically assumes the generic "loud = funny". |

No, this isn't my signature. |
