Humorously describe anime in 1-2 lines Anonymous 02/11/2023 (Sat) 07:45:09 No. 2499 [Reply]
Title is self-explanatory i think. Try to spoil things if you feel its something worth spoiling I'll start with a few: >Nodame Cantabile A young Gordon Ramsay of violin and piano (also cooking) has to deal with a retarded smelly girl pianist who is in love with him while managing an orchestra and try to get out of Japan, hilarity ensues >Kaiji Long-nosed idiot savant can't figure out why his gambling addiction is ruining his life, and solves the solution with more gambling >Berserk Rape victims struggle to deal with a world that keeps wanting to rape them and possibly learn from it >Initial D Local tofu delivery boy driving his dad's car literally cannot be stopped`` >No Game No Life Horny gamer siblings conquer the world through shitposting

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.

Anime Rap Cross Overs Anonymous 02/01/2023 (Wed) 18:24:46 No. 2423 [Reply]
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.

>>2260 >You're Under Arrest The opening song is a work of art by itself. I wish Japan went back to that period, when composing songs for anime.
>>2286 You and me both, anon. I still listen to it from time to time and the animation for it was gorgeous. The anime and OVA both had a banger for an OP plus their soundtrack was easy listening. OVA - https://yewtu.be/watch?v=g4CovmXFeLM Anime - https://yewtu.be/watch?v=0pEtx_cN1tw
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.

>>2233 And it still does not compare to the superior quality of the game's story and visuals. Anything "new" could be done better in-game. My point is that the anime is unnecessary.
>>2242 >Anything "new" could be done better in-game. Unless Yoko Taro is planning to rerelease the game with new content this will never happen, so I have no idea what you even mean here. >My point is that the anime is unnecessary. Given that it's giving new content to the story, including original stories as well as fleshing out side characters, your statement is already false. If it was a simple 1:1 adaptation I'd agree with you. It's not. So really your only point at this stage is: "the game looks better." Okay? Who gives a shit, as long as it's doing something new. I'm not some zoomer graphicsfag, if the content is interesting I'll show up for it. Episode 2 interested me. Episode 3 at least had some things that different as well. Enough to get me to watch anyway.
>>2244 >Okay? Who gives a shit Plebbit tier non-argument. The game looks better and has all the essential story in it. Thus, the anime is a waste of time. >including original stories Even IF they were good, it would be better done as part of the game.
