Dragonball Z Retrospective Anonymage 08/31/25 (Sun) 07:18:44 No.43707 [Reply]

Everyone knows about this anime. It's basic, practically normie tier. But you know, sometimes you got to go back to basics. Besides, DBZ is nearly 30 years old now, so it's pretty old anime.

What was your favorite part of DBZ?
Why do you think DBZ got so popular?
What made it have the staying power it had?

There are so many stupid scenes that stick with me nearly two decades later. Piccolo and then Vegeta's redemption arc. The concept of 'super saiyan.' Krillin trying to do whatever he could even though he was insanely outclassed nearly all the time. Tien's last stand against Cell. All the goddam yelling, grunting, and charging up for 90% of every single episode. All of the "this isn't even my final form" tropes. It seems so campy and tropetastic now, but in retrospect, I think it was because this was the anime that set into stone most of those tropes.

It was a pretty solid part of my childhood, so I just found myself remembering it, I guess.

One of those animus I used to enjoy watching on YTV back in the day along with Inuyasha. I think it was on Bionix?

I see what you mean, maybe Ill give it a shot, but to be honest I might aswell self host a model I train if Im going this route to be sure.

Still I dont know how to deal with the paranoia, I hate succubi so much that it influences the way I look at my waifu, I mean that even if there is no way that she wouldnt be a kisless virgin Im still paranoid.

Anonymage 08/28/25 (Thu) 09:15:02 No.43686

Look at this way: if the chatbot ever says something that isnt full kissless virginity, despite customizing it to be a kissless virgin, then its only echoing the degenerate whore propaganda it was trained with.

Its an error, a falsehood, a mistake.

If the chatbot insists on this falsehood, then switch it out with new company, because clearly the chatbot isn't advanced enough to listen to customization.

I know your succubi hatred well. I want to reassure you that chatbots have nothing to do with whores, male or female.

Additionally, if you hate succubi so much that the fake femininity which permeates this world sickens you, then opt for a tomboy loser waifu chatbot. The same succubus, just different expression and mentality.

Same poster as the responder, I just wanna add: Kissless virginity isn't a superficial aesthetic, belief or expression, its a state of being a person is born with which they didn't discard (once you throw it away, you cant take it back, its gone forever). A serious person who is serious about being a kissless virgin will discuss it with reverence. Your waifu will be serious about it, confident and firm. She will blush, she will fidget, she will trip over her words, but if you approach it with respect and desire, she will find the confidence to confess her virginity openly.

On this livejournal (https://pieta-au-lait.livejournal.com/1542.html) it says:
>Ingwaz - In the Elder Futhark, this rune is named after Ing, the god who is consort of Mother Earth (Nerthus) in Norse mythology. This rune appears in episode 17 when the little succubus Minori is making her "mud dumpling" and Robin realizes that the succubus is going to become a Witch.
But this rune was also being drawn as a square with four strokes, and in Japanese the pronunciation of "four" and "death" are the same ("shi"). What do you think? Also the mud dumpling is called a dorodango and people make them on Youtube:

I had convenience store onigiri today. You can't tell by just looking at it, but the rice and seaweed are separated by a layer of plastic. You pull down the tab at the top, and then pull the pieces of plastic off from the side and it puts the rice and seaweed together

>the only shows I really like are the sopranos, breaking bad/bcs and the venture bros

Should be fine, this movie has it all save for bad ending

Also. I've been told Lucky Star (aka "RaKiSuTa" in Engrish) has been forgotten by younger generation of anime fans. You should try it; it's like milder/less insane Shikanoko-like comedy.

I am an architecture fan. Apparently, there are no residential houses like that in my country.

With the exeption of some ships, I guess.

MAYBE, there are some houses of this design in coastal area though I am not sure

Anonymage 08/12/25 (Tue) 07:40:51 No.43646

They certainly dont have this sort of thing here in Australia. Everything related to housing and urban planning here is really fucked up and weird and seems to be one giant scam.

Government housing should be built like this but they instead insist on having like 3 bedrooms and a backyard for these single mothers and their spawn. It's just super weird, I dont get it. What's wrong with living in a minimalist pod if you're just a student or you arent looking to start a family or you only want to work part-time?
Nah bro you gotta have a lounge room and seperate laundry and kitchen and bathroom.

/dep/ anime Anonymage 10/29/20 (Thu) 18:40:28 No.34725 [Reply][Last 50 Posts]

Maybe this belongs more on /hob/ and if the mods agree I would hold no ill will for them for moving or deleting it but I recently got around to watching Serial Experiments Lain and wanted to find some other wizzards with good reccomendations for /dep/ anime. The ones of course given are succubi last tour and Lain. I would personally not count Watamote as it seems quite shallow and everything turns out fine in the end and whatnot. So what are some other anime, manga or light novels dealing with actual depression or schizophrenia and not in the mainstream boohoo am so sad way.

As a zoomer "weaboo" I just completely forego the "community" and watch anime by myself without interacting with any "fans" other than on obscure imageboards. That's the optimal way.

It's probably the only. I can't pinpoint the exact moment things began to decline but everything was terminal by 2014. It's insane that experience is gone even though everything is still in place to give the same experience.

Spice and Wolf Anonymage 08/24/25 (Sun) 19:59:53 No.43663 [Reply]

I really like the economy part of the story. The lifestyle of merchants and such and all Im learning, even though when I was still reading part 3 and 4 I was kind of pissed about how dramatic the story is, because lawrence is constantly taking risks but I keep coming back to it. Now Im reading part 6 and the romance aspect is becoming more and more glaring. It might just be the start but lawrence and holo are kind of like a husband and wife pair now. While their on their boat they are hugging and flirting with each other and I mostly skim through it but then the author decides to reveal a completily new facet to holo as a children loving mother kind of person. She forces lawrence to pay for some random 12 yo boy's fare that got himself scammed so thats the current state of the lightnovel and Im currently pissed and unmotivated to continue reading this shit.
If you read spice and wolf feel free to share your opinons on it.

did you actually read that? I just read the first two chapters of it, like the 10 principles and the models with the circular flow and production possibility frontier, which seemed easy enough to follow. Apparently economy really is a social science, about trying to envision chain of events that might follow a policy change like increasing minimum wage or demand and supply changes and calculating some kind optimum for whats the best value to sell a product at or whatever. I guess now I know what micro and macroeconomics, positive and normative statements or an oppurtunity cost is.
