I haven't watched the Pokemon anime in a long time, is there anything truly worth going back to, or is it all just blind nostalgia? I'll occasionally read news about the series, like how Ash finally won the Pokemon league, and has at long last been written off the show. Honestly, I lost interest in the anime after the infamous XYZ meltdowns and subsequent Sun and Moon seethe. Nothing will ever top that.

Welcome to my world. I haven't had interest in anime since Attack on Titan ended. Looking at what's coming out these days makes me think that was the peak for this decade like madoka magica was for 2010s. The 2000s and 90s was full of good stuff every year every season from what I checked.

I had time to kill a couple years ago and so I decided to pick up Pokemon Violet and give it a try. I'd heard it had the same open-world gameplay as SWSH but had refined it, and honestly I had wanted a Pokemon game like that since gen 1 so I was pretty excited.

So I get playing, and eventually I get to the Ghost gym/city. The city itself was only nominally ghost-related, which was disappointing but I thought whatever. Then I went to the gym, and rather than it being anything related to ghost pokemon for some reason there's this black person who is all like "Ash Ketchum I challenge you to a rap battle muh fuggin bix nood."

Nu Pokemon is so disappointing and I highly recommend staying away from it. Absolutely nothing is sacred and beyond the grasp of American globohomo

What should be the best measures that we should take to gatekeep anime has hard as it get?
Remember, if you don't believe in gatekeeping, you are a normalgroid.

Some measures that I suggest are:
-Knowing in deep a lot about an anime, visual novel, light novel, novel, manga or game in particular.
-Having a decent knowledge about the medium.
-Being very invested into at least one work.
-Being very invested at least in one fandom.

Is not neccesary to have all these things, but at least one. What more should be added?

There are clubs where you can't come in if you wear the wrong shoes, or they don't like your face.

Talk about Touhou here. I think the OP or something. It's been three months. We've all talked about our favorite characters, so what's your favorite part of the fandom? Do you like the setting the most, the characters the most, the lore the most, the music the most, or, like me, do you just idealize the series like I do?

What are you doing right now to enjoy the series?

>I don't know how people find the energy to argue about these things.
Admitting to not understanding something makes you come off as inept and impotent, two traits cast in iron by your belief that arguing online takes effort. AI is bad. He's been hand-drawing his work for 25 years. He has had his entire livelihood fueled by fanartists who work by hand. He has all the time in the world to work by hand now that his son is in school. ZUN should not have used AI, and expressing that in any manner is not partaking in a "culture war" like some tranny.

It's not on topic because it is more a discussion about AI than it is about touhou and it is culture war because it triggers both sides into throwing shit at each other and using emotional arguments like "I can curl more than you" unironically. I don't have the energy to go on a 10+ reply chain with you playing gotcha with each other. If you think AI is bad that is your prerogative to hate it. I was just about how every communities on the internet is full of people like you who can't help but start drama and arguments over nothing like a succubus with BPD. Expressing opinion my ass. Only someone new to the internet can't tell the difference between a genuinely curious person wanting to discuss a topic with a skubfag and I can tell you're the latter from a mile away.

Yeah, definitely an effeminate weakling who gets stressed out by the concept of people arguing. People like you have no business playing Touhou or enjoying its many wonderful fan works. Newsflash, dipshit: There are threads here dedicated to whining about 4chan, and there's an entire BOARD for you to be a poo-pants goobaby on. You not liking 4/jp/ is not an excuse to shit up the wizards' little thread with YOUR side of this "culture war".

Fine enjoy your dead thread. Soon there will be no more touhou or fan works to enjoy anymore anyway. Just AI generated slop and gachashit. Fanworks output and quality will keep declining, new fans will be alien to you, your altchans that's full of oldfags now will get deader and deader until eventually this little space in the internet that gives you comfort will be gone forever. I depart now but you will follow me one day.

I.D.K about you but I have many things going wrong with my life, but it's so awesome having anime/manga/LNs/VNs around, i can't believe there are entire meduims full of these wacky and colorful interesting things, i feel so lucky, i find my self watching a super old sports anime or master piece theater anime then jumping to watch some seasonal isekai or CGDCT show, i enjoy every genre under the sun, without this stuff my life would be more untolerable than it alrady is, i would go semi-nuts, i constantly look forward to watch or read something new, not to mention how often i re visit older titles, even if they are not all time favourites of mine.

Calling it underrated is insane but I do actually think it's overhated. It gets a lot of flack for being "just a shounen" but making a 1000ep+ long epic adventure is an inherently cool concept and they execute it very well. I think you're disingenuous if you call it bad, and I can think of many high-brow anime it clears.

Yes that's literally what shounen means you genius.

Long titled RPG-themed fantasy / isekai franchises with such long names are usually too full of irony and "game mechanic" themes. Can't expect much from them. One can even wonder how much of the Japanese youth are familiar with JRPGs to even identify what's mocking or inspired by RPG elements.

I think there were even more underage users back then than now (at least before the 4chan refugees came). However there was a subgroup of higher quality chadwizards that were actually interested in disregarding succubi and pursuing their hobbies. Of course those types get bored of the site and leave eventually because there are not many like them to engage with each other among the constant flood of posts about sex and succubi

>too full of irony
That one played it straight. I don't have a issue with if they do it ironically or play it totally straight, it's about doing it well and telling a interesting story.

Like I loved KonoSuba (aka KonoSuba: God's Blessing on This Wonderful World!) because it was well done, high effort, and mostly due to it being hilarious. But a lot of shows feel very low effort, badly done, and can't hit whatever feeling they aim to invoke. While this isn't a exclusively recent problem, because more shows then ever come out each season and each year for the past few years compared to last decade, even more low effort low quality slop is produced as a consequence.

Speaking of slop, I am also super annoyed that a lot of sites I use for watching anime are getting utterly flooded by cheap nonsensical Chinese slop. It makes searching by genera to find a show to watch irritating.
