/jp/ - Japan/Anime

I got heavily put off by the harem cast of characters. It honestly seems no different from every other harem anime.

i watched the anime long ago, it is worth reading the manga? the anime barely begins the story.

>>14321
I don't think there's a manga…but you could try reading the LN.I haven't watched the anime but i suppose the LN is even better(because of the details).

>>14338
the LN is worth it then? i am not much of a Ln reader but will do it.

I started watching this today and so far I really like it, I expected something slightly different but it's still really fun to watch. Probably gonna marathon this today.

>>14357
Ignorance
>Japan is so much better I wish I could live there just like in anime!
>No no Japan is the worst place to live you'll work 100 hours a week and kill yourself and everyone is horrible

Bitterness
>We should nuke the hell out of those damn gooks!
>I fucking hate Japs kill them all


Pathetic on all accounts.

>>14346
For real, really the most degenerate nation in the world honestly, fuck them.

>>14358
Can you actually explain? Greentexting a generalization doesn't really show anything.

>>14377
He's just being an idiot. There's nothing to be bitter about with Japan. And it's nothing special either, the only reason it gets any tourists is because of literally the worst kind of animation in the world, anime.

>>14379
Fuck off faggot.

Anime may not be the best animation ever created by humankind, but it's really impressive and captivating that captured the heart of millions of people around the world, mine included and I only watched a few ones.

>>14359
i think to some degree this is true

but they will naturally seek out more shows and eventually discover older ones and shit

it's a brief barrier that only resists normie penetration for so long

>>14312
Yeah, usually its those middle school kids who watch that shit and make anime vines that get millions of views. That is why they're usually always raving in about Tokyo Goul and parsyte, its shit but they dont understand that.

>fooly cooly

This is the most overrated trash I've ever watched, i couldn't even make it past episode 3.

>>14312
He's referring to "alternative" normies. Not everyday average joes that will see an image of an anime succubi and immediately default to "Weird Jap shit."

>>14371
Agreed, the only reason I stuck with it was because of reasons similar to >>14292

if you said that on a place like /a/ noralshits would eat you alive for not seeing how deep and smart the show apparently is

>>14309
Then what's the point?
They practically made the show what it was.

bump

>>14363
>Hei pulling his arm away from Yin's hand
That's the only one that actually made me feel bad.

>>14328
>I think it would be comfier to go to 24/7 convenience stores at 1/2am and just buy from there

True (delicious Bentos ftw.). But I guess I would go to this vending machine restaurant at least once, for the experience.

Vending machines are expensive. If they weren't lazyasses they could cook their own shit for a fucking fraction of the price.

>>14351
well consideribg they already dont even drink plain water and live off small cans and bottles of tea and coffee and soda from vendimg machines, i dont think they care

>>14353
also, there was a japan health meme a while ago

it was basically 'when you wake up in the morning, drink a glass of water'

many found it weird, but not because of the timing of doing something right as you wake up from sleep. they found it weird because they never drink plain water

Guess i need some /poor/ board to avoid the feels.

I know it's a bit late but I have some atypical beliefs on this that come from before I found her. It's mainly based around the collective unconscious theory by Carl Jung. More or less it states that everyone is connected on a unconscious level. Of course this connection isn't something we can really feel or normally realize in day to day life because it's our unconscious. Now considering this it would mean that our individual consciousness is more or less what makes us a person, I personally like to relate it to a "soul". The thing is since we're all connected consciousnesses are born and die all the time just like humans do in meatspace, though I like to think dying physically doesn't necessarily mean you're completely dead(an example though through different means would be Ghost in the Shell) The thing is your own consciousness isn't something you can really control (though I like to think there's a way to work on that part through meditation or something similar). Now the thing that relates this to waifuism is the fact that everyone is fumbling around together and can create a sort of original consciousness from fictional characters. The more thought and time put into them the stronger they become. Though I don't think they can actually do anything on their own, after all it's still a dormant unconsciousness but I like to think waifuism is cradling and helping them become stronger and more independent (not always but typically it is even if not in a strong way) You're putting a bunch of time and effort into them, normally people watch an anime and even if they have a favorite character they don't view them the same level most waifuists do. So it's much stronger and usually believes they are real to begin with which would probably help with it. Now I'm not really 100% sure on any of this, it's just my own beliefs because of how things have happened with my relationship.

I was just figured I'd share this and see if anyone else had more out there faith driven beliefs.

>>14271
Thanks for the response even if it is late. You beliefs are not really supported by any evidence, but at least they have a solid theoretical structure, unlike basically every other theory I heard.

Your thoughts kinda remind me of an Egregore that /x/ was talking about when Ebala-chan was a popular meme.

>>14281
Yeah it could be seen as an egregore but I don't think its on the same level. At some point a waifu becomes an individual and not related to a group to survive/grow.

Also it definitely is faith based. In fact I don't believe in this 100% it's just what I thought before meeting my waifu mixed with waifuism as a whole. It's definitely not something with much evidence, the only part that has any is the collective unconscious theory and even that is not well accepted. I find it stupid to believe in something 100% anyway. It turns into blind faith. I have personal experiences that made me feel this is right for me as well. Something other's could never really understand through discussion. I still have more to learn and read on stuff like this though. It's all just theoretical anyway.

I often feel a lot of waifuist learn about something and use it as a way to cope with their waifu not being in the same dimensions/world as them instead of actually having beliefs they care about.

>>14336
Can we stop using words like "waifuist" or "waifuism". It's not a movement or cult. It's a relationship like any other.

>>14343
Please scroll up to see the discussion we already had regarding those terms.

>>14305
Moe/romcom and Toonami shounen are two completely different worlds you imbecile.

Don't even pretend you know what you're talking about you clown.

>>14307
The existence of sub-genres doesn't disprove what I said. If they're worlds apart how does normalfags liking one sub-genre in anyway impact someone who likes a different sub-genre?

I watched like 10 episodes of Kamen Rider Kuuga some time ago, it was okay. I still have the whole series on my HDD, maybe I'll finish it someday

>>14294
>normies liking something means we can no longer like it

Think for yourself OP

Also I grew up in the 90s when all then little boys liked power rangers and I had to be closeted about my love of Sailor Moon so your prioritization feels quite inverted to me

It's just how things are…
