A lot of people unironically like it and no matter how much you dislike it you can't escape how extremely influential it was, so it's worth watching for it's cultural impact that reverberates to this day alone.

Truly we must reject modernity, Science, and their concealing of the true nature of the plight of retard-kin: the oppression of changelings by the race of humanity. So-called "autism" is nothing but the erasure of magical creatures (e.g. elves, trolls, nymphs, fae, etc.) who live in the enchanted woods by psychiatry and positivism. If we kill the humans we will save the forest!

Anon, be careful with the pseudo-intellectuals recommending anime that are DEEP PHILOSOPHICAL MASTERPIECES or whatever, which I'm seeing a lot of in this thread (especially ignore those /a/ chart images!!!). Nothing wrong with liking those, but they don't really represent the majority of anime, and people recommending them are implying that said majority of anime is trash not worth bothering with. There's no problem with watching "generic" or "moeshit" anime or however they would describe it and if anything that's what makes you a true anime fan.
Anyway, I would recommend you to stop treating recommendations as gospel and just watch anything that catches your interest. If you like a particular type of anime (eg. more action focused, more romance focused, more slice-of-life focused…) you can keep watching similar anime.
Personally, my favorite anime are Clannad and Higurashi no Naku Koro ni. Both are based on visual novels.
The former starts like a normal high school harem, but in the second season the characters become adults. It has a lot of sad and emotional moments and may make you cry. By visual novel adaptation standards it's pretty good, but the visual novel is still a better experience.
The latter is basically about a guy that moves into a small village with a dark history, and the crazy and tragic stuff that happens there. It mixes cute and funny slice-of-life with intriguing mystery-horror in a nice way. Though the second season has a thematic shift from horror to tragedy, and has more drama than violence. To be honest the ending ends up feeling like a Saturday morning cartoon, but it doesn't completely ruin the story. Be ware that the anime cuts a lot of stuff and the visual novel is a much better experience, but as an anime it's still pretty good even if you don't read the visual novel. Also recently there was a sequel (erroneously marketed as a reboot), Higurashi Gou and Higurashi Sotsu. It does a lot of bizarre things to say the least, so you may skip that one, but there's no problem with watching if you're curious as long as you already watched the original anime.

I've noticed that on imageboards finding anti-anime posters tends to be a pretty reliable red flag. In particular, finding posters who get really upset on someone posting some anime image is one helluva red flag. Why is that?

I hate manga.

Why is it hard for manga authors to not make garbage? 

Why is it hard for them to come up with a unique setting or a unique take on urban fantasy or sci-fi?

Why is it hard for them to have unique art styles and unique character designs?

Seriously, over a percent of 99 manga is shit.

the problem with YouTubers who make videos about Japan is that they spoil Japan for you like someone could spoil a film for you. they show all the facets of Japan. everything is discovered, nothing is hidden so that once in the country, you will be amazed by things that you did not know about Japan. Japanese youtubers are worse than weeaboos.

I have enough of japanese youtubers. they're ruining japan and vlogs were a mistake [in japan]. It is almost ruining japan for me (I never went to japan but I wish I did). I don't like the youtubers one like logan paul or jhonny somali, and I EVEN don't like those who respects the culture or aren't harmful to the country. they may act normal and respectful but I don't like them because they're normalfags and normalfags are already social people (this mean they generaly go outside or to parties or eating in restaurant in public) in their home country so they don't act weird in japan. I don't know about the weebs/otaku in japan, they seem to be discreet. I don't want to associate with normalfags. nevermind, there's a high chance I'll never go to japan

I'd recommend waiting a decade or two before going to Japan, &/or throwing a coin/thimble-sized-trinket on top of a map of the Japanese isles and visiting there, since the tourist traps are flooded with disrespectful "normies", vloggers, and God forbid, Yakuza activity funded by tourists using Yakuza lassies.
Japanophilia is an ancient phenomenon, but is ultimately a self-sustaining immune system, because in a Paris-syndrome-esque manner weaboos get let down when they go there and when they experience the healthy in-group preference of Japan's ethnic normality. It is true that Japanese outsources have become poisoned by… a variety of corporate and non-corporate influences, but old Japanese media is still preserved, and the Japanese countryside hasn't been meeting a fate similar to my nation's (England) because Japan's population is regulating itself.
Despite what people say, no, we don't need exponential population growth for every country.

In response to OP, don't be so silly. The implication that unknown facets of Japan are being broadcast to the public is an unfalsifiable anxious cope because the very fact that the facets are unknown means you don't know them and can't recognize them.

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?

I want to start attending a Nichiren Shoshu temple; first to get a formal buddhist precept-taking ceremony as a layman, and then weekly to chant Daimoku, and read Gojo in the group study ,etc
I read in the 4chin archieve of this board that they "believe nichiren is a creator god" or that "japanese people have special souls"…is that even true? I think it's good, and not bad, if it's true that they teach that.
Also they have the comfiest temple and monastic arrangements out of all buddhist orders.

I've read The LN, the manga and watched the anime. all of them had differents things that make them unique: you had different point of vue (for example, the manga was more comical I'd say). but rebuild of NHK…what is he trying to do ?
