everyone thinks japanese people aren't racists and will be alright with foreigners if they respect japan. but this video shows the contrary: japanese people are like the rest of human, they know what racism is and they are also racists

Would this board be better if anime discussion wasn't allowed? I like anime, but this board's so slow that having any actual discussion outside of the anime review thread or the cute anime character threads, is basically pointless. The world of imageboards needs a place for niche otaku discussion, but alas, no site caters to such interest. What with the modern day youth on this site, there'd probably just be a bunch of Vtuber threads to take all the anime discussion's place. What does /jp/ - Japan/Anime, think?

it's not only justified, but vindicated. The Chinese are, as much as you may like them, a cancer, and they are huge. Their influence should be cut out from everywhere.

In my experience, saturation of a particular conversation theme in any board doesn't mean that the board is doing poorly. It just means it lacks enough people. If you wish to have a conversation beyond anime, manga or light novels, we all would benefit from you making a thread on the subject. Also very cool image, not sure if that is a yokai but looks cool.

I've found myself watching, and this thread is as much of a confession as much as anything, kids shows. It started off due to the threads we've had about Cardcaptor Sakura and Doremy, but then I realized after watching them that I was feeling…oddly good and optimistic about the world in general. It's weird, because on the one hand I hate watching this stuff because, well, it's so fucking stupid and vapid, but on the other hand I love watching it because it's so goddam relaxing and healing to the soul. I find myself questioning whether this entertainment is purposefully made this way, to emotionally manipulate individuals past a certain age into a state of depression.

Uhm, thanks for reading my blogpost? Otherwise, I guess share some younger-demographic anime you might be watching?

Oh, I have watched this show with my little niece оnce upon a time. I really liked it. Sweet and calm series.

However, my "path" to anime aimed at children's audiences began with Haha wo Tazunete Sanzen. Unlike Moomin, I watched the show myself as a child. I just remember seeing a cartoon in the style of a very old anime, where a boy in red clothes, living in a small house, left his dad to find his mom.
While I was searching MAL out of curiosity to see what children's or classic literature works had been adapted by Japanese, I stumbled upon this cartoon and remembered it. It was a pleasant surprise. I might watch this show again, but not anytime soon.

I feel the same. In essense it is not a true battle of mage anime, since the system is left vague and power scale is avoided at all cost. It has its charms with the whole rock paper scissor angle to it.

I don't like how soft the male characters are honestly. When the illusion of "dream like sequence" is gone after the initial chapters, the magic really fades away.

I liked it because it was slow, there wasn't anything dramatic happening and it had some emotional moments. Music was great too, both the OST and OP2 of S1 "Haru", which has become one of my favorite songs.

My taste might come off as really generic, but after reading grim manga for years I have come to enjoy light hearted shonem like kagurabachi and dandadan.

I firmly enjoyed the purity culture in dandadan, with emphasis it puts on virginity. It made me happy, many series would shy away from placing that moral weight. Kagura bachi was a nice experience, it's a shame it will never reach popularity demon slayer did, despite actually being decently written.

I enjoy dandadan because it has yokai and Shinto faith integrated in it quite well. I am neutral on sci fi element, but I have loved yokai stories since my childhood. Truly enjoyable.

If you can't speak Japanese I would say stuff that never got released outside of Japan and has only such a small following only a fansub on some small niche torrent site or other site exists. I am jealous of people who know Japanese and have unlimited access to Japanese media.

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.

I gave up on learning Chinese, but I find hanzi very aesthetic. I just take notes like this 价 芥 阶 疥 界 尬 every day or use them in real contexts. For example, a flower 花 on the green grass 青草 - 花 化 华 哗 桦 货 靴 人 匕 - 草 朝 障 章 日 十 。 Any ideas from your mangas/anime? I'd like to see something like the Lion-Eating Poet in the Stone Den (Shī shì shí shī shǐ) poem made with similar characters, not phonetics. Surely you MUST have some ideas. The last time I was watching anime, literally ten years ago, I remember how the fourth WataMote episode begins with Tomoko's dream turning into characters in real time, surreal, reminding of old school rpgs with ASCII graphics

In Japanese, people sometimes like using numbers in place of normal characters, kind of like in English when people write "2 hot 4 you" or something.

You often see this in Japanese online usernames. Sometimes a username that seems like nonsensical numbers might actually be spelling out a word.

Here is a list of numbers and the sounds they're often used to make:
>0 お
>1 い
>2 に つ
>3 み さ
>4 し
>5 こ ご
>7 な
>8 は ば ぱ はち ばち ぱち
>9 く
>10 と

Here are some examples of how they're used:
>8888 ぱちぱちぱち (pachipachi, clapping onomotopea)
>072 オナニー (onani, word for masturbation)
>3150 さいこう 最高 (Saikou, meaning best or great)

So they use them in place of their pronunciation instead of the letter their shape resembles like here in the west? For example I would expect them to use 5 instead of ち or ら and 3 instead of ろ or る.
Also that pic is very funny, too bad he had to summon a き out of nowhere for it to work

Omitting subjects/objects and muh implied meanings fucking me up. How do the Japanese talk like this? There is like multiple different meaning a sentence can take depending on how you look at it.
