NAGATORO GETS AN ANIME Anonymous 07/02/2020 (Thu) 21:11:55 No. 155 [Reply] [Last]

Cross Post from GG thread >>853479 >I want to fug art club president. me too anon, her sister is also a top choice. unfortunately most anime always have the worst girl (the most boring or asinine) win out in the end. literally anyone of the other girls in the series would be a better/more interesting waifu then the narcissistic sociopath Nagatoro. somebody so full of insecurity and ego fragility that she makes the emotionally stunted and unbelievably immature "Senpai" look like a fucking a chad. its like being forced to watch somebody play a procedurally generated visual novel and they refuse to ever try out any of the other possible routes. fuck I've had enough of noodle arms abusive antics for the day, stop being a faggot and go fuck that smug bitch with the Orange hair! sorry if necro posting is a taboo here, tell me and I'll make a new thread next time or post in a general if you have one.

Can be about anything from your favorite anime, manga, characters, or some other thing like games or /jp/-related stuff. In my case, here are my favorite anime, though I might have to update it since I made it a while ago

Just finished Dungeon Meshi. It was great. Kind of disappointed that there wasn't more Farlyn/Falin interacting with everyone after she's revived.
>>3788 Reread the last chapter just now. It really does gloss over all the interactions. You never even see Sureau confess. He just blushes. Also looks like it's finally getting an anime, by Studio Trigger on Netflix. Allegedly the mangaka refused to let it be animated until the manga was near done being published.
>>3104 >>3097 It's too bad they gave the ending away by telling you ahead of time that Tanya will lose. You think it's another case like Death Note where the mangaka was pressured to not let "the bad guy" win?

Anime & Manga recommendations Thread. Anonymous 06/09/2022 (Thu) 19:26:07 No. 863 [Reply] [Last]
Just a simple thread for people wanting a certain type of show or manga series being suggested for others to try out or ask question if there are certain series with a bunch of requirements met. I'll Start first, are there any anime or manga series with a MILF protagonist you'd recommend for anyone? Anything where the mother's a protagonist really or at the least an older female.

I'd like some sibling romance anime where there is little or no sex, preferably with the anime building up to the confession and subsequent relationship. I saw Oreimo, Candy Boy, Eromanga Sensei (though it had much fanservice, the siblings had little to no sexual activity or thoughts; though I'd prefer anime without much fanservice) and Boku wa Imouto ni Koi o Suru. Is there anything more?
>>3601 I'm surprised some autist doesn't have a list of all of them. Then again they probably might, I just don't watch that shit much so I never bothered to look. >>3285 Yeah Ultimate was pretty damn good.
Any creepy or disturbing OVA's you recommend for the upcoming Halloween? I'm looking for something short you can watch for one sitting for the coming week or costumes and candy.

Thread for talking about, laughing at, or cringing at absolutely dogshit translation jobs by diversity hires and (((other people))). Pic related is from the recent anime Inukai where the protagonist turned into a dog and everything is from his perspective. This is the "official" Funimation translation btw.

Felt the thread needed one. Starting with some amusing news. No Game No Life Creator Fires Back At Western Reader Bitching About No Dark-Skinned Characters https://boundingintocomics.com/2023/03/09/no-game-no-life-creator-fires-back-after-western-reader-criticizes-series-lack-of-dark-skinned-characters/ >Yet, despite the game taking place in a fully fictional country, a Western reader unsurprisingly took issue with the fact that Disboard did not exactly parallel real-world history. >On March 2nd, Kamiya took to Twitter to reveal that they had recently “received a scolding DM from a foreign reader who said ‘There were brown-skinned people in medeival and early modern Europe, why don’t they appear in your work?'” >Responding directly to this accusation, the Brazillian-Japanese creator declared, “First of all Disboard is not in Europe.” >“Were there furry ears or elves in medieval Europe?,” he added before noting “Also, there are usually brown-skinned characters.” >It should be noted that one of the sixteen different sentient races who have a seat at the table of Disboard politics are the dwarves, all of whom are noticably more tan than their peers. >However, as they did not appear in the series’ anime adaptation nor have they made their debut in its manga version, it seems that this fan had not fully engaged with Kamiya’s work before attempting to rake him over the coals. >Ultimately, the entire interaction left Kamiya wondering if they would have a better understanding of the fan’s mentality if, instead of leaving for Japan with his parents at the age of 7, he had lived out his life in the United States. >“I wonder if I wouldn’t understand it because I am now completely close to the Japanese,” said the creator. Didn't realize the NGNL creator was half-brazilian, kek.

Manga Plus have pulled a bait and switch with its new 'paymnent plans' for manga access. Trust is lost for Manga Plus Max trust oss. They've even replaced title covers so we're denied the awesome original manga title covers. Screw Manga Plus! It's a return to the seven seas for this manga and anime fan.

FLCL Thread. Anonymous 09/16/2023 (Sat) 20:51:09 No. 3642 [Reply]
FLCL's back and just as awful after progressive. The latest FLCL sequel, FLCL Grunge and it's filled up with crappy Lolcalization and other modern crap. https://archive.ph/zg68h Anyone else found Mamimi to be a pretty shitty chick in retrospect? Thought she was pretty interesting back when I saw this show as a kid and later realized the whole the point in hindsight was that Naota was trying too hard to seem adult as a kid when he's way over in his head as to what that actual entails, or am I remembering wrong?

Gundam General Anonymous 01/20/2021 (Wed) 04:05:22 No. 301 [Reply]
How does the Turn A Gundam Correct Century work? Spoilers for the show but it's plot centers around the mystery of the Dark History. An era before the current time which in the show's setting is a Victorian era level of tech society with planes & blimps. This Dark History is hinted at & outright said to be essentially the history of at least 4 previous Gundam timelines. From my understanding, each timeline is supposed to be a different universe. So how does this work? Because I can't find a straight answer no matter where I look. Is it: >A: Each Gundam timeline referenced here were actually part of the same universe all along. >B: Each timeline was separate but something converged them into one.

>>3552 You'll like Thunderbolt if you like more adult characters rather than teenagers. It's pretty harrowing as far as the depictions of war in this franchise.
I started watching the original Mobile Suit Gundam, it seems good enough so far. On episode 8 right now.
>>3594 >adult characters rather than teenagers Well that already earns it quite a few points with me. I've been watching enough anime with teenager protags. Some of the mobile suit designs I saw when I was playing Gundam Battle Operation 2 looked pretty cool too so I'll have to check it out. >>3595 Glad you are enjoying it. It had a great soundtrack for it too. Lots of catchy parts that are still stuck in my head randomly.

I recall Initial D has some summary movies or whatever that were just the races. Do they include all the races? If not, is there some fan cut of the show that's just all the races and none of the gay drama surrounding them?

What are your guy's opinion on Bleach: Thousand Year Blood war? I'm currently on the second season and so far it's serviceable even though it seems like it's rushed on some parts like Shinji's Bankai, and some aspects that remain like Byakuya's survival. What do you anons think about it?
>>3600 I'm waiting for it to be finished before I watch it, but I heard from some people that theyre rushing the pace of it which is concerning
>>3600 (checked) Bleach destroyed my interest in anime for a few years. I regret my time spent with it, and wish I would have dropped it earlier instead of sticking with it until the conclusion. >>3612 >I'm waiting for it to be finished before I watch it That is how I am for most shows.

Thoughts on Dance in the Vampire Bund Anonymous 09/04/2023 (Mon) 17:09:19 No. 3590 [Reply]
I haven't heard all that much about it. Seems that a lot of normalfags give it shit for being a "loli show". But does either the manga or anime have any merit on it's own? What are your guys' thoughts?

I never finished reading this thing, I kind of want to see just how angry it can make me. I'll try to keep checking in but if I don't see /a/ in the top boards I assume there is no activity, someone might want to float the idea of always keeping legacy boards on the top boards and just shuffling their order by activity to Codexx or Acid.
>>3593 >To that end, the main female protagonist (ab)uses her position in vampire society to do a bunch of shit in pursuit of this that seems more than a little beyond the pale and winds up causing problems for people. The manga likes to downplay the problems she makes or pretends they are actually good things which for me at least seems very leftist. Good words don’t change military so she is taking realistic path, just like human depiction >The "old guard" . . motivations are more "political scheming" than "if the vampires/immigrants move in it will destroy our society". You don’t rule for centuries by killing your lifestock. Fitting for vampire/European to scheme among themselves and bother other human >It can be both good rage fuel Haven’t read this for decade as middle schooler and college guy but I don’t remember raging beyond Mina getting framed as heinous > I saw a clip or two from the anime, it looks like the fight scenes have more impact in motion. If anyone like the glasses president I can vouch to watch the anime until she is removed from scene (4-6 eps)
>. The manga likes to downplay the problems she makes or pretends they are actually good thing Alucard. pretty sure our gen like him so that either came out hypocritical or double standard

What the title says. This pic been on my phone since a few months ago and I never could find the origin of it. Tried SauceNAO, Yandex and even Google Lens, tried to translate what the title of the front page says but couldn’t get anything coherent. Is it a loli doujin, a light novel or something like that?
