What are some anime/manga that are impossible to find subbed in English? There are a lot of obscure children's anime that subbing groups from 08 and below attempted to sub, but ultimately gave up because of shitty bandwidth and shitty Japanese. It's no surprise that kid's shows like Kaiketsu Zorori are only noticed by pants shitting furries in the west, but there are still so many Japan-exclusive kiddie shows that will never get subbed. Even big names like Shin-chan never get any English translations outside of the 90s-early 2000s episodes.

I can't find subs or even RAWs of Croket anywhere online

Saint October is one of the earlier ones I remember only finding partial subs
>>265 I actually have a list >Ring Ni Kakero 1 The first two seasons of the anime and the first 3 episodes of the Shadow Arc OVA have been subbed, but are very difficult to come by outside of private trackers (Genuinely convinced the subbed Shadow episodes just don't exist anymore at this point), and it's quite sad since only 9 episodes are left that need to be subbed for the series to be finished. The manga also isn't translated beyond Chapter 27, with the sequel manga having just 1 chapter translated into English. A shame since this is probably one of the most important manga series for Jump and heavily influential, as well as being the precursor to the mangaka's next series, Saint Seiya. >Dr. Slump This one will be fully available soon. >>266 is wrong and it's actually only 100 or so episodes away from being fully subbed and the reboot anime from just after Dragon Ball GT ended got a surprise full sub drop a year or two back. >Cyborg 009 (1969) The last 10 episodes remain only in Japanese. >Tetsuwan Atom Only 4 episodes got subbed if I recall, and then there's 100 dub only episode. A lot of the most important shit like director debuts are Japanese only still. >Gegege no Kitarou (1968) Thankfully this one got picked up and is getting consistent releases. >Sasuke It had like one or two episodes subbed and then dropped. A real shame since it looked really good. >Ninpuu Kamui Gaiden Not subbed, absurdly important samurai anime as well.

>>2052 One I’ve been knocking around is about a student council that’s set up as the US Constitution originally set up the federal government. Senate, Supreme Court, Bill of Rights, the works. Have plotlines dedicated to political machinations, constitutional lawsuits, and maybe even a quasi-allusion to the civil war
A fighting highschool manga about psychopath slashers fighting in a tournament, and the protagonist is a mixture of Michael Miers and Jason in a sense of being fuckhuge, quiet and ridiculously strong. Maybe with friends to teach him that "killing is bad, m'kay?" but still can't stop him from doing the fights just to protect his school and because it's fucking fun.
Something like GuP except instead of tanks, it’s classic NASCAR. Each school has their own track and team. Various drivers are genderswapped allusions to realworld historic drivers like Richard Petty and Dale Sr. Whereas the bigger and better-funded schools have later model cars like Superbirds and Lagunas, I was thinking the protagonists’ team would be stuck with an outdated mid 60s Ford Galaxie. But through a mix of luck and ingenuinity of their team’s new chief engineer who’s based on Smokey Yunick (legendarily good engineer from the 60s) they manage to ‘massage’ the rules enough to score wins. Have it set in Japan’s “cotton country”, which is very clearly just rural Dixieland with Japanese names everywhere, lol

Kodomo no Jikan Anonymous 06/23/2022 (Thu) 04:30:04 No. 878 [Reply]
I just finished reading Kodomo no Jikan and all I gotta say is: God that was such a shit ending. So naturally, it ended the only way you'd expect it to end, with sensei fucking the shit out of Rin (or at least trying, since his dick didn't fit inside and it hurt her) Furthermore, Reiji was an absolute scumbag. why did he got any sort of peace? I wonder if the author was even aware of hos disliked he is, since he is responsible for the mess Rin grew up into by doing what can only be described as grooming. He didn't deserve to end up with Mimi-chan There's a brief time-skip to first year of highschool on the final chapter so they can attain by age of consent, and most notoriously the Ishihara Act and it jumps straight to the action, Rin's body didn't develop so the lolicon could have what they wanted (I assume) and it just fucking ends there. Unless you count the Houkago additional chapter, So both girls waited years to fuck these dudes who are now much older for some fucking reason and somehow Rin didn't talk to sensei once for these three or so years? How is that believable? I have so many nitpicks with this trash, how are people rating it so highly? It's just fucking boring and about 40% of it focuses on the female teachers who are just mind-numbingly inane characters. This is literally just the author's fetish, since she had a crush on her teacher as a child IRL. What are your thoughts?

I was following KnJ as it was scanned and translated monthly and it was a journey. I never expected the amount of change the characters went through. Most of the cast aside from the girls leave a terrible first impression but they grow up and deal with their flaws in a very satisfying manner. It was a fun ride. I went for the bait and stayed for the plot.

>>878 I just came here to tell you that you are a dumbass. Did you read it with your ass or what? Perhaps the reason you couldn't understand shit is because you read it in English. In Japanese at least KnJ is a masterpiece and one of the best manga I've ever read. Reiji for example, how can you misunderstand him that much? He never actively "groomed" Rin but expected her to grow up to fall in love with him as he tried to be the perfect guardian. The way Rin acts has nothing to do with him and he even gets surprised when he discovers that Rin isn't as pure as he thought and was looking at porn on his PC. His entire character is that he is traumatised and has stunted growth, and after years of stress he can no longer cope and experiences psychosis which gets mostly corrected by Aoki. One of the best scenes in the manga involve Reiji, when he goes the school to get his suit back but overhears Aoki talking to a parent which digs up his trauma and he tries to rush back home crying but runs into Mimi. He kisses Mimi in this scene while he's confused and upset because over the years the only way he coped with his trauma was through sexual contact with Rin's mom as she took advantage of him. After this scene Mimi goes home does make-up and dresses and goes to Rin's house. Reiji apologizes and rejects her telling her never to come here again. As Mimi goes back home crying she thinks "I would've been fine with being raped by you". KnJ handles realistic but taboo scenes like this pretty well.

Bocchi the Rock! Anonymous 12/17/2022 (Sat) 19:39:50 No. 1615 [Reply]
Anyone been watching this anime? It's actually kinda enjoyable. Basically the story is about an introvert who picks up the guitar after being upset that she never made friends in middle school and is dragged into a high school band by pure chance. Honestly, I think the anime has a lot of charm and I'm looking forward to seeing if a season 2 will ever be made or if I'll start the manga next week ater the final episode airs. What do you think about Bocchi the Rock anons? cute band story? shitty K-On rip off? You decide!

>>2439 >anyone even remembers attack on titan Are you actually insane or just retarded?
>>2439 You're saying as if that's a bad thing. Most anime don't even get form treatment, and end up with limited fans who in turn lead to limited sales
>>2439 >Anyone even remembers Attack on Titan No, you’re right everyone forgot about it. It may have been one of the best selling manga and watched anime of all time but once its over nobody cares. >cultural significance the themesong has been memed to hell, it has memorable quotes. If youre talking explicitly about just references in manga/anime im sure theres some but Id argue references dont tell much of how impactful the work is. For instance, Hunter x Hunter is very popular but people only reference the extreme hair. Id say the actual impact of a work is how it affects the medium, the genre, or something big like how JoJo and many other works are inspired by Fist of the North Star or how a shit ton of harem manga use the same kind of formula Love Hina did years ago.

What do you guys think about influence that anime has had on the hip hop industry, artist like Kanye have been known to drop subtle references to anime like Akira and every other soundcloud rapper has some variation of dbz bars. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3inwchcRs24
It probably hasn't had much influence yet honestly, minus niggers who like dragon ball (who I think are not really overlapping much with the rest of the hip hop crowd as much), but that's not really much "influence" I think, more just overlapping interest, though I'll admit I haven't heard things like "DBZ bars" being dropped in any hip hop shit, but I haven't listened to most hip hop shit since the mid 00s. Kanye seems like a potentially cool exception. I will say that'll probably change as anime has been going increasingly mainstream for the past 5-7 years and now its pretty fucking popular. >that YT link didn't expect this lol,

what was your first anime? what was your first hentai??
6 posts and 4 images omitted.
Probably Dragon Ball Z, Pokemon, Yugioh, whatever was on 4kidz. The first time I got really into it was Naruto on Toonami. After a few years of that, I came back to anime after a friend and I watched SAO, AoT, and Date a alive which got me back on anime in highschool. I also ended up watching Nisekoi with said friend and bet Kirisaki would win while he bet Onodera would. After we graduated, it turns out I won
(1.04 MB 3765x1600 000a.jpg)

I believe the first anime I ever watched in full (Toonami introduced anime to me technically but I never watched a show aired on there to completion) was Panty & Stocking w/ Garterbelt. It was nice for a first-timer, and I watched it with full subs, not the dubbed version. As for my first hentai, I can't remember the name but it was probably in 2005 or so when hentai sites were sparse, and I don't think I even fapped to it, I just watched it. It was some girl in a steamy bath and she had vanilla sex with some guy. There was another one I watched right after that which was more rape-themed and some monster looking motherfucker ate a girl's clitoris, like literally bit it off. I thought that was something you're supposed to do during sex as well until I found out the truth later. Doesn't really count, but this is the first doujin I ever saved, though that was long after my first hentai experience.

I've never tried a josei anime before, but I recently watched Nodame Cantabile and I liked it a lot and would recommend it, its entertaining, very funny and the characters are great. I also agree about Yakitate!!, its an outstanding work, Sunrise really outdid themselves.
