There's no going back, the internet now is in the hands of normies and bots, maybe there are some obscure places in the web where you can find genuine interesting things and people to engaged with.

>1980s Japan: Jazz fusion, City-pop genres

Japan of the 80s is not your recommended youtube/spotify playlist.

I'm ok with this.
There are clubs where you can't come in if you wear the wrong shoes, or they don't like your face.
Maybe they want to preserve a homely atmosphere.

Combine this with the knowledge that there are global agendas, which want to undermine each country's culture to be able to subvert it and control it.

>>43427
I feel like those global agendas are actually a good thing and I wish more people would choose not being racist in this current day and age.

>>42625
its not. its just johnny somali drama. hes one of those nuicance streamers and got into jail in japan for playing loud audio in a restauraunt for 2 weeks and now every ching hates that nigger since the news told them hes bad.

>>43428
t. Jew who hates unique cultures and identities (except his own)

Yeah I am sure the Japanese would hate me if I had to deal with them. I already have problem socializing with people in my own culture, it's going to be a lot worse in an anal-retentive autistic culture like the Japanese who'd get mad if you forgot to use the correct polite verb forms or if they found out you pirated SNES games. It doesn't affect my interests much though. I can continue immersing myself in Japanese media and learning Japanese without actually having to deal with Japanese people. They're mostly normgroids like people everywhere, yes including the otakus that made your fanservice lolicon manga, they're normgroids with friends and usually married not to mention a lot of them are succubi. Feels kind of weird consuming media from a culture where the people would hate me but ehh, I don't meet people, it makes no difference even if they're super welcoming.

I watched a few episodes of akagi just now but I didnt understand anything about majong.

I really like Space Adventure Cobra's intro…

It's pretty good but it really has become a normalfag anime on par with mainstream shonen. It's an example of why trolling is an important part of nerd fandoms and why they should not be safe spaces for any consumers of a given cultural commodity

>>43635
>It's pretty good but it really has become a normalfag anime
Its target audience was the "normal" general public and that's why it even managed to leave Japan. There's no reasonable cause to consider an anime for weirdos / nerds / virgins / whatever.

t. normie who started watching chinese cartoons in the late 2010s

>>42494
>The anime is a fucking non sense i try hard to focus on what is going on


that's kinda the point


Shinji went SPOILER, full SPOILER also FINAL SPOILER reveals Shinji would prefer to be a lone "self" rather than lose himself in a happy ocean of all being melted into one gang



Thus, Shinji is not exactly "mental disability", he actually had to handle a hearty dose of bullshit and SOMEHOW he survived it.

2. Strike Witches

3. Agent Najika

Pantsushots. Also, synthetic people and the drama about their future.

4. There was anime series named "hack", AFAIK

5. You know, you can watch Gunsmith Cats and then watch Gabriel Dropout to imagine Rally was ready to become an angel at some point.

There's no blackpill. I'm a bleeding heart, a lover of my interests, just as you and anyone else. Why the misanthropy? I love Japan too.
What differentiates us is the fact that I've lived there, indeed live here presently, Fukuoka prefecture, and have been in and off the country at large for over 7 years now, giving me an understanding of the approaching event horizon.

The sustainment of its culture and its foundation rests on an establishment too thoroughly intertwined with the support of its aging male population; those old men whose youth has been exhausted, whose predilections are, by and large, globally looked upon with reproach, whose communal support of and with one another is dependent on a network accessible only to them, and whose time has past. Once they're cut, it's game over.

You think Nagaru Tanigawa's gonna finish Haruhi? or Nasu will be ready to create something else for Type Moon? or 47 year old ZUN the likes of which speaks about Touhou's end. Really? These men with families entering their 50s or 60s have had enough, and their protégé are soon following, retiring to a halcyon life as their country spins a new tale. Who even buys anything except for those old men, of clear heart, wanting for more so they refrain from pirating.

Z-kun doesn't care for that, in all parts of the world.

Just as Takao Saito died, Akira Toriyama died, Kentaro Miura died, the remaining old guard will collapse, and thereafter nothing similar shall beget, for today's stage is a globalist type, and none no longer possess the steely mind necessary to resist its flare as they chase for money unavailable in their shamble of an economy.

Passion is dead, Z-kun exhibiting it still lesser somehow.

That's why high school settings are being banned. That's why 'underage' depictions are being annihilated. That's why anything libertine is being equated to things licentious and grossly perverted. That's why gore is rampant, because it's better to show a man being shot sixty times than seeing a flash of panties.

I always feel a stab of guilt when I read a JP comment and they complaining that creators they've always been following have begun lessening the intensity of their content to appear agreeable in western -in your- eyes, and express a powerless dismay against this. Just a mellow feeling

so japan is over and the fatest it dies the better, am I right?

>>43056
Partially.
Japan is over, yes, but not altogether so, and accordingly, to put that struggling remain out of its strangled misery, it is only best to deliver a swifter and faster death, lest it survives and transforms into a resisting bastardized amorphus blob, a shell of its former self, a willing carrier of disease, a thing which anyway will surely rapidly die… but not before taking the salvageable with it following a repulsive reign it will construct where flagellating all its prior merit will be commonplace. Yes, a faster death is better. Letting it live in a direction which normalizes shit is no good.

Accelerationism is an interesting policy.

Owing to natural phenomena, once everything resets and returns to nothing, the ensuing reconstruction will again recreate divisions of 'Good' and 'Bad' with the former of greater strength than the latter, more plentiful, allowing for a period of repose, until again the refuse is large enough that circumstances call for another reset.

All cabals in the world, all conspiracies, all machinations, all malevolency and good, creation entirely, from plant to insect to dog to man, good, bad, operates with that policy in mind, pushing for their own respective time of victory, and Japan's period must once more arrive, 62,530 days after Perry forced them to open up.

In the other thread, I'm sure you're the Penguindrum poster, yes? the show is good. Nothing like it 14 years later. It was especially interesting before Kanba's fallout.
The central theme in the whole thing is a merciless unveiling of the inability to truly overcome fate. Everyone was playing to the seductive tune of Sanetoshi Watase, even he himself. Bittersweet was not the ending, it was horrifying. Unlike Madoka, even if Kyubey always wins, the succubi can at least evade misfortune, but not so here. Actually, I wonder how that'll go in the next movie. Maybe it'll be worse for them, and Homura's rouse will collapse inward into itself, and as she despairs and weeps with no way to fix, Kyubey will be off with that Cheshire grin of his, a fresh pile of misery behind him.

But Urobuchi's a pretty happy guy these days, and after 2014, I think some ban was placed on animated media suggesting depressing themes. The stuff that's bleak is consigned to literary mediums now.

yes I am. you're pretty clever. apparently the movie don't add so much to the story. thats what I read on internet

>>43043
ugh


even anime like Gundam GQuuuuuuX features smartphones as something mundane.

If you want it, do it.

Virtually not feasible at all. There is no situation in which a Japanese bus company is going to trust such a role to some random ass gaijin out of country.

Now if you lived in Japan on PR, had conversational Japanese and were already a bus driver (also very unlikely) then maybe but there's no chance of any of that happening for you, let's be real. Get a similar job in your own country. Getting a job in Japan is very difficult unless you work for an international company willing to transfer you or you want to be a teacher working the equivalent of minimum wage in Japan.

I saw that getchu was hiring both part timers and full time employees, for easy shit as repackaging stuff.

I would be ok with a job like that, packaging and sending eroge and dakis to people similar to me from all over japan, but they would never hire gaijin to do this.

>>41385
Being a legal resident is such a massive blocker, ironically the easiest way to be legal would be to marry a japanese citizen.

Good grief, the Japanese are all like GEN KI DE SU KA when it comes to one's desire to werk.

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.

Is Lexus LFA allowed here?

>>40028
I am quite saddened to realize AvtoVAZ was not too eager to create a compact three-door for a small car lovers

I don't want to spend money on figurines because I live with my family and they'll go apeshit because of my otaku penchant

>>43543
I think it's because you are a homosexual and by having a figurine of a cute anime succubus you feel as though you are repressing your gay desires. And so you do not.

>>43544
am not gay

>>39816
Anyone know the best way to buy and clean used figurines? I wanted to pick up some late 2000s figmas I used to own, but I don't want my figurines to be guilded with the encrusted decade old cum of someone else

my mother is good with voicing her concerns in stern manner; I wouldn't risk receiving a scorning from her too.
