Why do so many people heavily obsess over shows?

uh dark souls is about fightin skeletons or some stuff and jojo has spirits that help you fight
it doesn't matter anyway, what I'm saying is you're implying that the "complexity" is the only reason people don't like them, which is obviously an absurd concept
PhantOS:
you aren't an intelligent human until you fully interpret the theme of the 7 deadly sins in chowder, and write a full 1000 page character brown townysis on each of them

funny when I actually do essays on film characters and did once see which of the deadly sins a character has committed.

because people enjoy watching them? did OP live under a boulder before television shows were first aired

in order to understand what exactly is going on, you need to know a lot about the plot/mechanics, and there are people who won't go to that length because JJBA is so confusingly insane at points and Dark Souls is just plain loving hard
the people who are willing to go that extra mile end up major fans, but it's less that it's "complex" and more that it's not really accessible
the best place to start with JJBA in order to understand everything is with the first volume, Phantom Blood, which is pretty much as cliche as you can possibly get (Jonathan Joestar is pretty much every other super-powerful anime hero), the personality only gets going in Battle Tendency and for some people that's too late to get invested
Dark Souls isn't just difficult, it's punishingly difficult and will purposely forget with you all the time, and it's very vague on specifics; it took me three playthroughs and several wiki-searches to get to the final boss and I still haven't beat him yet, plus you have advanced techniques for getting max damage or whatever that even I don't get yet
it's not "people are dumb" or "us JJBA/DS fans are smarter than everyone else", it's purely a "how much time am I willing to put into this" thing
