What's the appeal?

it's like Monty Python but for Japan

>>152613309
Social commentary and memes.

>>152613309
It's awesomeness

Death

>>152613309
Despair.

Jokes so Japanese they require a translator's page and a very different kind of moe.

Chiru is the best girl and nobody can deny it

Ripping apart society and human nature in a humorous manner with great voice acting and based shaft visuals

>>152613309
I love dark comedy.

>>152613309
Family Guy of anime.

Kumeta's humorous analysis of mundane things. It's like the Seinfeld of anime.

This. Counter-current chapter was the wildest ride for me

So pretentious cunts can circklejerk about it.

This is a pretty awful image.

Not just because every girl is accounted for

I really want to watch this, but after watching the first episode, I felt like all the Japanese humor went over my head.

>>152619990
Just pretend you understand the jokes.

>>152619990
You don't really need to be Japanese. Being a cynical fuck, a wallflower, or an autist is enough.

Now Joshiraku on the other hand.

Upon review the appeal was upheld.

D. Spare was OUT leg before for 301

I'd want a show with ZSZ characters but in a different setting with actual plot and humour similar to ONE's animes.

This is the McDonalds of shitposting

>still don't understand anything

>>152620842
this is weird

>two novelists standing by each other is weird

>>152613309
cute girls doing cute social commentary.

>>152619990
i didnt get it either at first, but i learned.

>>152621021
Kafuka was really cute early on in the manga

>>152613309

I dropped it because I heard it has way too many jokes only Japanese would understand.

Maybe I will learn Japanese and then watch Rakugo and this one raw.

>>152619821

Back when SHAFT still had fun.
The episodes where they experimented with different animation techniques, and that one where they switched voice actors for every single line were GOAT.

Also had an excellent OST

Kaere best girl

don't open it.

>>152621807
They really needed to do more stuff like this, it turned a decent chapter into by far the best episode

I've just started this show. First impressions are very good, what do I have to look forward to?

A lot of pausing

Don't forget to read the manga after

>>152623644
The OP was great.

Am I right in thinking that Kafuka is best girl?

Seclude yourself and train for a few years, then try again when your power level is higher.

Normal is best

Smooth minimalistic art, god tier waifus Ai Kaga is the best, fight me faggots and some social rant with a pinch of black humour.

I'm still mad that Kodansha USA dropped this series.

>>152623765
Don't call her normal!

>>152618432
It's a show about cute girls, puns and cultural references. It's about as unpretentious as it can get.

>>152623809
Did we ever get an actual reason why? Was is just collateral damage of Kodansha taking over the English license, was it sales, was it just too much effort?

>>152618143
That would be FLCL
