You may recognize this situation: it’s late at night and something in your life has gone wrong. You turn your fears over and over in your head until you can’t take it anymore – it’s time to do some serious google research. To your immense relief, you’re greeted by a helpful resource right away! It’s even the first search result! Ready to find some guidance for those woes, your heart skips a beat as WikiHow loads. Finally! What you’ve always wanted: for an implausibly buxom anime to guide you through the perils of pregnancy hemorrhoids.
Look: far be it from me to tell you not to trust WikiHow or animes. But if you’ve ever gotten tax advice from some shounen-style rando holding up a Schedule C form in one hand and giving you a thumbs-up with the other, you might know where I’m coming from here.
Besides, we don’t know these animes’ life stories. Who knows if they have a good reason for trying to interject themselves into all of your most uncomfortable moments. You can’t judge a WikiHow Anime by the quality of their lineart; but rather, by the level of insanity their presence brings to the article.
