The falling pot gag was a terrible idea...

Just binged this, and while it was pretty enjoyable, I was very annoyed at the randomness of the falling pots, did anyone laugh at that once? Apparently its a famous gag in old Japanese comedy shows.. but from a western perspective, its just a Looney Tunes gag...

Its like the writer was too afraid to make the show too serious, so heres a random gag! There is anime that you can recommend to non-anime fans to try and get them into anime, but this single gag makes this a hard recommend to anyone whom is not already an anime fan is already used to manzai style humor.

Just imagine for a second your favorite anime also tried to do this, someone is diying in Attack on Titan? LOL lets drop a pan on their head! Sawako finally confessed in From Me To You? How about we drop a pan on her head! That scene in the last episode of The Flower We Saw That Day where everyone is criying? Lets drop a gawdam pan on everyone`s head that will enhanced the mood!

You get my point.. basically was anyone else annoyed at the overused of this looney tunes gag the entire anime?

It's a product of its time. This shit was hilarious back then. Trust me, I was there. Nowadays I don't find it funny but it's such a minor thing lol
