The board has never had that many actual 30+ wizards on it? It's always mostly been apprentices, and there were more underages browsing it back then.

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.

This underground manga I've come across in the internet archives really deserves to read , it just made up my day it feel like a summer fever dream , there are a few communities but not much . I thought this shit was made in 2009ish but it was 2013 , anyways atleast the protagonist isn't a pussy and it puts u directly into the story , short manga i finished this in like 5hr . It has a great hook ngl specially the art style .

Huge anime binge plans/goals? Anonymage 04/20/25 (Sun) 16:12:23 No.43213 [Reply]

I would love to watch every single pokemon season out there, every single gundam season, every single precure season, every single Digimon season, every single Detective Conan episode, every single Doraemon episode, every single Kamen Rider season, I am a NEET, so it gives me a sort of "life-fuel" to have such loong shows in my backlog until my parents find me a job or something, i just fear i would eventually get tired/burned out or the quality would become unwatchable for me eventually since i hear some of these are inconsistent, are there any other super long otaku-media projects you are looking for? Manga/VNs/LNs count too, i might also add Horizon in the middle of nowhere if i wanted to stretch to different otaku media.

Good luck! I used to do this. I would burn everything to BluRay (not in a streamable format, just as normal storage). It was easy back then but you'll be hard pressed to find a complete series dump that isn't either infused with multiple dub audio tracks, or is a raw format at 4gb+ per 22 minutes of anime.

Ojamajo Doremi has over 200 episodes, Chibi Maruko-Chan has an original series with 142 episodes and a sequel series with infinite episodes. Sailor Moon has 200 exactly, the Dragon Ball series has lots of episodes for each series.

Most disappointing anime Anonymage 08/04/19 (Sun) 00:15:59 No.31035 [Reply][Last 50 Posts]

What was the most disappointing anime you have ever watched? For me personally, it was Sailor Moon Crystal. I'm a big Sailor Moon fan and I was pumped for the new series to come out, even though it kept getting delayed I didn't care, I just wanted to feel the magic I felt watching the series for the first time again. But when the show aired in the summer of 2014 i was met with a show with extremely sloppy animation, poor writing and really just an underwhelming vibe to it. It was just such a gut punch to see my favorite show get treated with such a mishandled and mediocre retelling.

Context: they unironically aired Ghost in the Shell, Elfen Lied, Ergo Proxy, Agent Najica and NGE (aka "EVA") in the 2000s here.

I was so confused what Ergo Proxy and NGE were about I dropped them. Took me a while to learn NGE is a deconstruction of mecha genre, while Ergo Proxy is a deconstruction of cyberpunk genre. Cruel irony is, my father accidentally pulled a Gendo tier move on me

I've watched teasers and trailers and didn't feel like watching the show at all, but the reaction to it does seem excessively and artificially positive.

Anonymage 09/23/23 (Sat) 20:46:54 No.41065

I watched the live action and it was decent. I mean, it's corny and goofy as fuck, but what else can you expect from One Piece. Apparently the mangaka had some say in the creative direction so they couldn't flip race/gender/sexuality of the characters like you usually expect from Jewflix.

I actually enjoyed the live action a lot and I went in expecting to only like it ironically. I think the performances are kind of cringy but I also don't really know how you'd deliver any of One Piece seriously. The physical sets and props, along with the lighthearted camp feeling ends up coming across as a faithful adaptation despite cutting out a pretty large chunk of the manga.

Buggy was literally perfect.

anime and Japan is dead Anonymage 09/12/24 (Thu) 15:33:41 No.42426 [Reply]

Anime is dead. The new anime coming out is trash, rewatching old anime gets tiring and some old anime doesn't age well like tominos side projects or gets lost in time.

The otaku identity is now pink and blue tranny rooms on YouTube full of $5000 spent on first result in google anime merch of the latest seasonalslop poser anime like jjk,mha,nagatoro, uzaki-chan,my dress up darling. The "otaku" these days don't even know who is aura battler dunbine or ideon.

Anime and Japan also lost a lot of its "power" so to say in the way of mysticism/ nerd cred. Initially being viewed as a high quality nation with #1 schooling in the world it's now cheap commericial touristwank. The politicians are all now pozzed centrists payed off by the West instead of based hard right wing. The average Japanese teen nowadays prefers McDonald's over sushi. It's truly over.

Anime is popular with children and the poor because it's so easy to access for free.
Even if you got something against "piracy" there is ad supported free stuff, stuff uploaded by the publisher for free, and old dvd as well as the occasional vhs are floating around in most places for almost free.

Cost isn't a prohibiting factor in Anime as a hobby.

Okay I'm gonna reverse my opinion a little here. I assumed the new Ranma anime was shit because it's a Netflix series which usually implies slop but I watched it and it's actually quite good. Visually it's nice, well drawn, pretty colours, good backgrounds, keeps most of the nudity and naught humour. I enjoyed it. Soundtrack is a little bland compared to the older version but otherwise it's good.

It messes with the material to please modern western gender politics to the point of outright censorship.

My expectations of video game adaptations in general are extremely low.
The number of good ones can be counted on a single hand. Two if you are very lax on defining good. Vast majority take tons of "liberties" to the point it at times doesn't even resemble the source material in a lot of video game adaptations. So it doesn't surprise me that DMC turned out the way it did.

I'm a sucker for the rule of cool so my favorites are Final Wars and those with Mechagodzilla, especially the original one from 1974. On the same note, and despite not being strictly /jp/, I also like Pacific Rim a lot.

vs Mechagodzilla was insane since it was the first Godzilla movie to have blood in it. Also in the sequel it introduced one of the coolest kaiju, who sadly never reappeared in anything ever again. Well, movie wise.

Final Wars was great cause it at least gave a very small cameo to my favorite enemy kaiju, Hedorah.
