>>156921450
Tweeny Witches is fucking great and if it wasn't for this chart, I would have never watched it.
Truly a man of taste.

I wonder if he got to see Your Name.

>>156921482
Im unironically watching every single one of these on the chart and then going to watch his review on it afterwards.

only gone through 12 anime so far (from bottom right to top left) but man what a ride its been.

Damn, that's some great taste. Grumpy Jii-san knew his shit.

>>156921450

Voices of a distant star is my favorite sci-fi anime. It looks like ass, but it hits you hard.

>>156922656
It's kind of strange to think that something made by Shinkai could be described as looking like ass.

>>156922681

Can only do so much with a shoestring budget when it comes to animation.

The hurting never ends.

Google around. /a/ found his grandson and learned Jii-san had a heart attack while hiking. Can't remember for sure if we found the obituary.

>>156921674
>>156921410
Is death truly the only escape?

>>156921450
My grandpa died two years ago, and that was when I began working. I even told him, essentially a full body organ, thanks to the nurses that crashed him before I arrived that I had to work tomorrow. I worked that fallowing day when my mom woke me up when she came home. So anything more than two years pretty much is. People that are admitted into homes, no matter how bad they are also do not last long.

>>156924519

Even if I disagree with most of his opinion, I don't feel like punching him in the face like most youtube anime celebrities.

Is is the voice or the comfy natural landscape?

RIP Grumpy Jii-san, the only anime reviewer I will ever accept.

Hi there!

You seem to have made a bit of a mistake in your post. Luckily, the users of 4chan are always willing to help you clear this problem right up! You appear to have used a tripcode when posting, but your identity has nothing at all to do with the conversation! Whoops! You should always remember to stop using your tripcode when the thread it was used for is gone, unless another one is started! Posting with a tripcode when it isn't necessary is poor form. You should always try to post anonymously, unless your identity is absolutely vital to the post that you're making!

Now, there's no need to thank me - I'm just doing my bit to help you get used to the anonymous image-board culture!

I don't filter faggots.
There is one guy that I might consider filtering if he were using a trip, but that is only because he manages to fill entire threads with his autism. Anything less than that, and it's really just part of the 4chan experience.

Gumpy Jii-san looked uncomfortably similar to my old computer science teacher. Every time I went to class it'd feel like he was going to go on a tangent about anime.

Enraged Elder

>>156924362
No, but we did track down a priest in another state who knew Grumpy Jii-san (one of his blog posts had thanked the guy for loaning him a series). While he hadn't heard from the guy in a while either, he confirmed that he was in Grumpy's will and would have been contacted if he was dead. He speculated that Jii-san's arthritis had gotten to the point where he couldn't use a computer anymore.

Of course, this was like four or five years ago. He could have died since.

>>156934176
You think he had a hard on for cute little girl shows?

Why didn't he just get some sunglasses?

>>156938818
Cheap shades are actually bad for your eyes.
Filtering visible light is easy and very notable. But the visible light isn't what's going to fuck up your eyes.
When you wear almost-black shades you think that you're safe and it feels safe, and without your noticing your eyes might get fucked up because your reflex to protect them is undone by the shades.

Dear forum users,
My name is Jonathan Wayne and I have sad news to convey to all of you.
My beloved grandfather, Bruce Wayne, also known on the internet as "Grumpy jiisan" has recently passed away. As you might know my grandfather has stopped updating his youtube profile and website due to the severe arthritis plaguing his hands. In the past year his condition had deteriorated needing constant hospital care. Still, even while being hospitalized he retained his passion towards anime and tirelessly followed the newest releases on his laptop. He always spoke enthusiastically about his plans of making new reviews after his eventual recovery. Unfortunately, this never came to be.

Grumpy Jiisan had passed away quietly, surrounded by his loving family on the morning of january 4th, due to organ failure. My grandfather was 89 years old.

I am writing this message here because my grandfather frequently visited this forum and always spoke spirited about the loving community he had found here, despite only being able to make posts at a great difficulty. I believe he would have wished for it to inform you about his fate so we can all come in terms with the unavoidable reality.

My grandfather was a man of admiration who was able to connect with the younger generation through his hobby and passion for anime. He understood young people well and always spoke about understanding. He viewed the fragmentation over different tastes and "waifus" within the community disturbing, since in the end (using his words) we were all united through our love for anime. I hope his wise words can serve as an advice for many and would make the community a more welcoming place for everyone.
But now, the time is for mourning. Please remember my grandfather in your hearts as a sometimes grumpy, but energetic old anime fan, who loved everyone who shared his love for japanimation.

-Jonathan Wayne

>>156921450
Even how much I dislike Shinkai, his taste is fantastic.

>>156940576
yeah, john wayne and bruce wayne. definitely legitimate. also he seemed more in his late 60s to early 70s than in his late 80s

gone but not forgotten.

>>156945584
It's obviously bullshit, as there is no way he was 90 years old FFS.

I enjoy seeing him load up a laserdisc for a review, like the Arcadia of my Youth one. You can't beat the big discs, record size covers and nostalgic feel of the reference format for otaku back in the day.

well I tried searching arizona obituaries from may 2011 (last video) to may 2012 for the keyword hiking, but the site was so garbage it froze up part of the way through. it was like 250 obituaries. shouldn't have been such a heavy load

>>156947265

>Bokurano

The anime was horseshit outside of the episode with the tomboy. Only part that was actually better than the manga

I think he quit because he could watch the best anime. Tatami Galaxy.

>>156954332
Butthurt mangafag. The anime was good as well.

>>156954784
It was decent for half with Maki's episode being god damn stellar but the the second half became the directors fanfiction. I'm used to adaptations changing things here and there and some of them pull them off very well but in Bokurano it was just a mess. And even if I liked the anime, there would be no way in hell that it's better than something like Tatami Galaxy or Bebop

I can't fault it for giving me one of my favorite OPs of all time though

>>156921854
Don't joke about his death newfag

You might seriously have autism

i never heard of this guy before... why am i sad for him right now?

People who have watched his videos: What is usually the reason why he took a half-star out of a rating, from 5 to 4.5? Seems like such a tiny adjustment.

Alzheimers does more than just remove memories.
It destroys your brain. People with alzheimers have physical holes in their gray matter. The kind of alzheimers that creeps up on your from behind and destroys your motor functions first is considered the benign version by some because it means you get to think straight for longer.
