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.

the 1981 anime got a remaster in 2020s. I personally watched it this weekend

I have been thinking of getting a body pillow of my waifu and I live alone so thay wouldnt be an issue but sadly there are no covers of her so I would have to commission it. Any advice wizbros?

For years, Ive been struggling with seeing my sftware changing, getting altered update after update. It has always been unsettling for me how I just cannot get my muscle memory aligned with my computer because they change a thingy here… then, some other thingy there changes… then some other thing changes out of blue…



Yet now I am being told it's a /jp/ thing called KAIZEN - make things good by improving them non-stop.

I swear, modern computer's interface is the last thing KAIZEN should be applied to: the "positive" impact from improving a thingy is nullified by a severe negative impact of disrupting user's ability to use computer/smarty on reflex-like level.

Imagine being forced to use an ever-living ever-evolving piano, where a pedal gets randomly replaced with a button or vice versa, the keys change shape and such. You basically have to learn a set of different pianos now!

OP's here.

I need to provide some context.
While modern software is made globally, there is a nice /jp/-related thing: the very idea of endlessly making things at least slightly better has been popularized as "kaizen".

 No.44062

I'm fine with software changing as long as those changes are valuable for someone. What I can't stand is that the programmer(s) who made the software do not properly document it and provide examples. They are not obligated to do this, especially if it's open source and they are just giving it away for free, but it fucking pisses me off when someone tells me to 'just read the docs' or whatever and I read the docs and it doesn't properly document a specific feature I want to use, if at all.

No I won't ask AI. I'm already dumb and it will make me retarded if I outsource the thinking part of my brain to a program no smarter than a fish.

As the subject says, FUCK NGE.
This anime is only for people who try to be cool in some way if they watched it. The anime is a fucking non sense i try hard to focus on what is going on, a time they fight angel and another time they show some 20min scene about those kids suffer from mental illness. Thats it thats the whole anime, i love the art style but doesn't mean this anime isn't a garbage, its like someone made a beautiful marble statue using his own shit.
Worst shit to hear is :
>Evangelion its an anime that no one can understand its a good experience… Deep story, i love shenji solja boi

Just fuck off, they cant even explain it to you as others explains.

Conclusion : NGE is for womens + posers and Pinterest womens

A secret of adulthood is realizing less clothes doesn't necessarily make one sexier.
Sometimes more clothes and good aesthetics make thing more beatiful than just skin.

Just watched this. Not a bad movie. Great animation, not super deep, but the atmosphere and many things are really great. Reminiscent of Jin Roh, but ultimately that one was much more serious and much more impressive, although the animation is about on par, both are around similar quality and even style too. Jin Roh is darker both visually and content wise.

Nice movie but a bit of a shell of what it could have actually been, so maybe rushed or maybe.. Just not fleshed out in the imagination phase either. Good effort.
