>The Simpsons is social criticism
It was at the first season. Then it turned into a soulless cashgrab and transformed into what it used to make fun of.

Because they're newfags from reddit and mainstream social media

it's absolutely not a reliable way to determine whether someone's a normalnigger or not. maybe could've been back in the day, it is by no means the case anymore. majority of the normalniggers on the web love anime. way I see it virginity has been and still is the only reliable indicator whether a person is a normalcattle or not.

Precisely. "Losers" have been effectively ejected from every niche they once could have called their own. It's genuinely depressing that there's been no "home" for people like me for ages now. Of course the individualists will always be able to enjoy their stuff in solitude, it's admirable but it's not a common power.
I don't have it. I always felt I was a social creature that suffered unfortunate injuries to the psyche and unfortunate life circumstances making it incompatible with fulfilling its basic emotional needs. I was content with just going on the internet and talking about nerd shit with the guys though, back when nerd was a dirty word.
Back then I used to be able to talk about a lot of stuff online without feeling like I was out of place, the feeling of being among mostly like minded people with mostly similar life experience was palpable. It was a comforting thing to be a part of a tribe.
For a long time now it's not really been possible for me to go anywhere and talk about anything without feeling like shit about what I am. It's obvious that it's factory settings for other users to consider people like me to be unwelcome outsiders, remnants of a "worse" era. It's a bit like being back at school again. People can't help themselves but bring their IRL stuff into the exchange and flaunt their real or imagined superiority even though they don't realize it, that's just the way they've always been offline and it's what they turned the internet into.
Normals will mockingly talk about crabs in buckets and "losers" making everything worse for themselves by convening in places where the one common factor is misery but it was the normals who appropriated absolutely everything that used to be "ours" and kinda left us no other options.
Back in the day I never really had to think about misery when I'd spend time online. Our shared issues were so much of a given that they didn't have to be at the core of discourse. It wasn't absent from discussions but most of the time we could focus on talking about other stuff, with our point of view being the assumed default without ever having to explicitly bring attention to the causes.
In the modern age though it's like there's nothing else left to define myself by but the divergence and the hurt. There are no friendly spaces. It's just their shit and I'm always the outsider. Not like I didn't try tPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

These charts are always shitty “ironic” memes that just throw shit at the wall hoping it sticks. Like dragon ball is the same tier as LOGH and hetalia,

agree that being a streamfag is OK, especially when there are no trustworthy public torrents. i only hate watermarks.

Anyone have any suggestions for good historical anime? Not expecting accuracy. Mostly interested in feudal Japan but other settings are fine too. Been loving Vinland Saga 2.

Two of my Top 10 favorite anime that are still great and cult classic in Greece and Saudi Arabia but obscure everywhere else (even in Japan) are Igano Kabamaru and Plawres Sanshiro:

https://anidb.net/anime/2007
https://anidb.net/anime/3324

Both of them are fan-translated with Japanese audio and English subtitles. If you're Medabots fan, you'll definitely love Plawres Sanshiro since it's its great ancestor and directed by same guy who later directed Pokemon anime.

>>33462
People even ignore the existence of 2000s mainstream shonen like Konjiki no Gash Bell, let alone obscure stand alone OVAs from the '80s.

A society that is ruled by laws can welcome anyone who is willing to agree to follow those laws. If they are doing things that are disruptive to your society that is a problem with your legal system that you can fix by simply outlawing whatever they are doing that is harmful.

why did you enter a thread of people who care? do by chance care a little?

>>40052
No, I don't think i will.

>problematic
Bait thread

I will say that if I was in a trade that was in demand there and spoke the language I would be tempted to move to one of those small villages with the free/ultra cheep houses. But I am not even sure foreigners can own real estate properly over there.

So sad.. but they still make jets

I still have the same 97 Red DOHC VTEC del sol I had in college in one of my discinnected garages. Just like that. It was fun. I went to college in the early 2000s

I just have a shitty old Toyota that doesn't even run right now. I could have it towed and repaired or just replace it altogether, but I don't care enough about cars to sort it out. I just walk to my parents' place and give them money to buy me groceries when I need some. I'll probably get it fixed eventually. What I really want for a car is a '67 Stingray, but those are expensive as hell nowadays. Probably a bitch to maintain and a keying magnet, too.

I have always loved hatchbacks, they look the best in my opinion. it fits my personality too. I like practicality and will never need to use 4 doors or need backseats. an automobile, just like a house is to me a private sanctuary. 3 door cars represent the idea that a vehicle crafted for personal use the best in my opinion.

Rosa is one of the best characters in the series. You got offended by the child abuse, didn't you? You sissy.

>Columbo, 1968
>about an old bumbling policeman with a lazy eye who pretends to be retarded to outwit famous and rich hollywood normies who look down on him.
yes, yes it did.

>>39951
No, they were still doing reruns as recent as 2017 to my knowledge. Probably still running it to this day.

This isn't /games/, but anyone a fan of Black Souls?

When I first discovered anime and manga I was in a really fucked situation, I would sleep for 0-4 hours a day and I desperately needed something to cope with my shit life with, so I immediately pounced on anime and manga and started consuming them at immense speeds. I would go through at least 2 anime every single day and this continued for like 4 years straight, so I must have finished far more than a thousand anime/manga in just those 4 years, after that I went coldfish for a few years, during which I perfectly forgot about every single one of them.
In all 5 of the manga I've finished reading recently, I realized either halfway through or at the end that I had read through the entire thing at least once before.

>>39495
I've been through the exact same thing

>>27916
start reviewing them

I don't forget anime I've seen unless it's absolute trash, and it's very rare for me to watch trash.

I mostly forgot Rosario+Vampire after watching the anime in January, a week ago I started reading the manga where it left off and realized I forgot so much. Then gradually over 20 minutes I remembered it all. It was just stored away.

The more you use that shit the harder is going to bite your ass later

SOUL >>>> Souless

>It is in Japanese
That's Chinese, and it requires a Chinese VPN or an IP which isn't explicitly listed in a non-China country

I don’t care about ai art but it makes “artists” seethe so I’m all for it

>t it makes “artists” seethe
No it doesn't. The current "best" AIs are one-trick ponies and needs more user-end tweeking and expensive hardware to pull off even remotely consitenty.
For every fappable machine image of huge nun boobs that took 2 hours to generate, there are 300 that were too ridiculous to even bother saving.

It can dolls in to draws

Genshiken is kind of close

>>35267
Genshiken is 10/10 manga/ani yet it declines as it progress. The first part with original crew is the best and it get worser as the Fu-joshi takes over the story. It's still good, but at that point I only read it for Madarame.

Yet, genshinken focus more of otaku culture rather than "succubus saves boy"

Denki-gai_no_Honya-san is another otaku anime i like. But it's not dark at all. 9/10

Kuragehime - Fu-joshi shit, it was decent. 6-7/10

WataMote: can't remember opinon about it, ok i guess

for real, try Yojouhan Shinwa Taikei 10/10
Might not be what you looking for but there's nothing as nhk in ani world. maybe manga idk

Kaiba 10/10

>>37958
Not guy you responded to but thanks for the recommendation, delved down the rabbit hole of works by Furuya, Minoru. All the characters particularly in Himizu and Wanitokagegisu are relatable in some form, especially saitou in the latter. Reccomend himizu and wanitokagegisu if you're suffering with depression/loneliness. Unsure why the low ratings for these works reminds me of other hidden-ish gems like homunculus.

>i liked the theme of a succubus wanting to save a boy
Ano Hi Mita Hana is like that. If I'm not mistaken the main character is a shut-in too.
>>39913
I read Saltiness/Saruchinesu a couple of months ago. I probably read all of Furuya Minoru's works. At least all translated to english.

>>39866
I think the worse thing is that zoomers don't know anything other than instant gratification, and I don't know if you can fix that.

>>39867
Yeah, doesn't sound likely. Everything is so fast paced now online it's crazy.

Anime is for trannies, sucubbis and soyjaks nowadays. I now it's hard, but y'all should just accept that you're, even that just a little, in someway, just like them.

>>39908
>I know
Fixed.

>>39020
It's good to have some group that you identify with. Anime is a most important pillar of our group. If we can't say that anime is something that belong to us, then well… that's sad.
But I think it all started declining long ago anyways.
