The difference is that a hot chick said it
>Capeshit
The director has outright stated that any serious moment should be undercut by humor.
>FMA
Actually serious moments would reserve their humor, you could have an entire scene composed solely of someone grieving without a single quip.
FMA has multiple scenes during fights and in general where a gag is repeated or a character makes a silly face for no reason. In the OP it doesn't even make sence for Mustang to know his alchemy doesn't work in the rain, it just makes him look moronic in a tense situation where they're fighting scar
>The director has outright stated that any serious moment should be undercut by humor.
That was 1 director who has since been canceled.
I love that you guys lack any understanding on how any of the corporate slop that you lap up is made, gleefully regurgitating talking points that you also don't understand in a fruitless attempt to look smart. Whedon didn't work on Infinity War, dumdum.
>Shounen is for 14 years olds
>MCU is supposed to be for adults
It is in character for this billionaire industrialist to makes a vaguely racist comment about an alien's appearance.
One thing I love about anime is that it's barely ever referential with its jokes and when it is referential I'm too foreign to understand it anyway, so it's like it's not there. Quips and snark are great, the 90's was brimming with dry wit and I miss it every day because whatever passes for "wit" these days is not the same. These days the delivery is forced, it's not set up naturally, it's timed so poorly its jarring and obnoxious. It doesn't have that detached nonchalant tone like back in the day it's just trying too hard. And you know, FMA is from the 00's era which has its own advantages over modern era anime. Modern anime is not even a little funny. I didn't think the japs could get even less funny than they were when I was a kid but somehow they have. And everyone is an oobloobloo I'm crying at small issues or wow isn't that character trying way too hard isn't he just so wacky and over the top? Drivel. I miss the snappy subtle digs between characters like mulder and scully, and the similar but more direct digs between character like Ed and Al. Why the frick is everyone trying to be a clown these days when they're clearly not cut out for it

Ah shit you're right how could I forget this one specific example
>proudly moronic
Im happy for you I guess
what anime?
nip humor is just like how it was in the 90's what are you talking about

Do you have a unibrow?

the difference in your example is that right is a visual gag. You're literally seeing the physical embodiment of the mental toll the joke took on a character that is otherwise not phased by things. "You look like Pop-culture reference" is not 'bad' persay, but it's just not as well set up of a joke. I think the main difference is that though you feel they're both used too often, MCU/Capeshit throws out so many jokes that it wears on you, they operate on weekday sitcom pacing. Anime jokes vary greatly by genre, but in that show their jokes were paced out better for the most part.
In Marvel the "gag" is focused around quips, in FMA is more due to circumstances that make something that was previously the subject of jokes dramatically relevant.
It also helps that you can pull off the second one only one time for each joke (and even then, soon the audience will learn to expect any gag to have a dramatic turn later, which you don't want), while quips are used constantly, to the point of contributing to the formulaic feel of the fights and dialogue.
