Do you remeber manabi straight?
I remember fist bumps.
>>161728491
Don't bring that shitface here.
I do
>>161728004
I remember it looked like something made by early 2000s graphic designers.
>>161728004
Yes, it was cute.
>>161728610
Why is she sitting like that?
>>161728004
Well when I receive a message I hear CLAPCLAPCLAP so yes.

I've set a reminder for Mikan's birth day back when it aired, only 1 year to go boys!
>>161728778
Cybersexing
>>161728921
Why are little girls so violent in the future?
>>161728004
I like Manabi Straight because the protagonist is an underachieving high-school dropout loser just like me. The main message is that it's okay to a failure, which makes me feel better about myself and therefore makes it an objectively great anime. BTW please subscribe to my channel.
>>161728988
am I fitting in yet?
>>161728004
Yeah, I remember being memed into watching that. Fuck you guys.

>>161730381
was ufotable better or worse before they started shilling type moon?
>>161730505
It was certain more creative
I liked how the first episode was completely different in tone from the rest. also nice swimsuits there

Manabi was great.
Anyone have the copypasta or screencap of "I want to feed manabi"? I've been looking for it but it's lost to the ether
>>161732778
This hope they'll bring it back in HF
I remember htat they had to change the opening while it aired - no more permanent graffiti, but it vanished after some time. I'm not sure if it was because of pressure or because they didn't finish it in time.
>>161732785
I'd gladly make bacon sandwiches for Manabi. I'd give my life for her. I'm not talking about sexual partnership either. I'd become her personal slave, if necessary. Bringing her her daily regimen of bacon sandwiches, Big Macs, and cherry soda would bring me great happiness. As she burped and gobbled down her meals I would sit basking in the glow of her ravenous maw.
Even as she became hungrier, and plumper, I would not grow tired of serving her. I would work harder than ever to make her happy. I would learn to cook new recipes, I would roast entire Turkeys for her, I would hand-feed her deep-fried twinkies. And once she had gained a most excellence rotundness, now so fat that she could not leave her bed, 350 lbs. of mouth-watering loli fat, bubbling like an overbaked jello, she would yell to me with fat, blubbering lips: onii-chan, it's time for mah dinner!
And I would come. Fork and knife in hand, I would enter her bedroom. Her glistening, gluttonous eyes would turn dry and roll back as I sank my teeth into her quivering, greasy hide. In a panic, thrashing around like a beached whale, her blood would boil, marinating the fat nicely. As I neatly cut her into bite-sized chunks, she would lose consciousness. And then I would feast. Oh would I feast
>>161728004
I wish every episode had been like the first one instead of going downhill.
Mikan is the best girl and I want to pet her.
it's communist propaganda
>>161737101
No, it's fascist propaganda.
Was Manabi Straight the forerunner for cute girls reviving towns?
>>161737621
I unironically like the cute girls salvage clubs/schools/towns whatever. There's a concrete goal with a definite end and it mostly flows well and has a nice heartwarming(and maybe a bit bittersweet) epilogue.
Is this yuri?
>>161737904
Mistakes happened. Virginities were taken. Hands were held. But it lies all in the past now.
No yuri.
>>161728004
I do. It's one of those series I remember being mildly entertaining and promising myself to rewatch some day, but never got around doing it.
I remember this more for the ost, I never stopped using Intermission as my ringtone
>>161740056
Is it the one with the clapping? Shit is great.
>>161728318
>>161740495
I had already forgotten how the girl on the right literally has the style of a roach.
>>161740578
Why would you forget Roach-tan?
>>161741462
I didn't watch the series as it aired so I missed all the sick memery
>>161741671
Oh, I'm sorry.
Wait, we have BDs?
>>161742339
Since years ago. 2x2 Shinobuden's are a bit more recent.
Pretty good ones as Ufotable bothered to keep their original work files.
>>161728004
I watched the whole thing recently. It never topped the first episode. I waited for it to reach that level of manic energy again, and it never even came close.

Award winning. The Fruits Basket OP was voted best anime song ever.
And later Eri Kawaii dies too. That year sucked.
>>161732998
The beginning of when nip SJWs began ruining anime. I don't remember if this was before or after that girl was kidnapped and tortured. But someone was assblasted about encouraging kids to be vandals so ufotable had to change it.
Hilarious that Japan was worried about the bad influence of graffiti before they were worried about murder and incest.
>>161747189
>Eri Kawaii
Kawai
but that too, I guess
>>161737621
I think of Manabi Straight as an evolutionary stage between Ichigo Mashimaro and K-On.
>>161747701
I love all of the old Manabi memes.
Or 'image macros' as we called them back in the day.

I wonder which was first but am too lazy to check. My subjective anime memory radar places them both to roughly same period, excluding the later seasons of Hidamari.
>>161749873
Manabi and Hidamari both aired in the same season: Winter 2007
>>161750338
Then my subjective anime memory radar is in perfect working condition and 2007 winter was a good season.
I picked it up because of that one fanart where they were all grown up and didnt look like lolis and I thought that was the artstyle.no regrets

... and Manabi's catchphrase is "Massugu Go!"; i.e. go in a straight line, hence "Manabi Straight" and the Manabi Line

>>161749873
I was going to say I was pretty sure Manabi Straight was first, but the anime for both of them ran at exactly the same time. Manabi's first episode aired January 7th, 2007 and Hidamari's was January 11th.

They were more memorable. (Except for Coyote Ragtime Show) I wish Type-Moon would switch to Trigger to make my life easier.
It's been so long. Did the manga end any differently?

I think the last line on the last page of the manga was "Manabi is no longer straight".

Oh shit
>>161757472
Apparently I wasn't the only one who picked the similarity
>>161749274
Depending on how you define it, I'd say Maison Ikoku started it all.
Cute schoolgirls doing cute things in the sense we know it began with Azumanga Daioh, the phrase 'cute girls doing cute things' stems from Ichigo Mashimaro.
Hidamari Sketch started the trend of moe 4koma adaptations from the various Manga Time Kirara magazines, which has come so far as to get a crossover mobage.
Somewhere between Lucky Star and the 2008 economic recession we se a shift in CGDCT anime from experimentation to following known-good recipes. Market saturation has led to some resurgence of experimentation and just doing your own thing with mixed results (e.g. Hinako Note).
Manabi Straight is an original anime.
>>161737717
But now they're all either created or funded by local governments.

I have a Manabi Straight torrent in my list and it pretty much gets seeded each day. How people find out that it exists I dunno but it's nice

It's not people, it's some Chinese bots.
>>161728004
ah, the good old times
>>161796149
It was 2007, so weebs unironically call you gay and/or pedo for liking cute girls doing cute things. The biggest animu of that year was Gurren Lagann, which drowned everything else.
>>161728004
I remember it as that one anime that infamously broke even exactly on DVD sales, thus establishing the Manabi line
>Manabi Straight was 2007
>Hidamari Sketch S1 was 2007
>Sayonara Zetsubou-sensei S1 was 2007
>NICE BOAT was 2007
>Clannad S1 was 2007
>Zero no Tsukaima S1 was 2007
>Darker than Black S1 was 2007
>Minami-ke S1 was 2007
>Lucky Star was 2007
What was it that made 2007 so great and formative in the history of /a/? Was it the last year before the financial bubble burst? The lack of SJWs? The non-existence of clickbaits?Where did time go?

>What was it that made 2007 so great
Coincidence, probably.
>and formative in the history of /a/?
07 is basically the period of greatest growth of /a/. So a lot of people came here and this was their first experience, and they turned it into /a/'s culture.
>Was it the last year before the financial bubble burst?
No, that's completely off. The bubble was burst in the 90s.
>The lack of SJWs?
Stop bringing that shit here.
>The non-existence of clickbaits?
What is that even supposed to mean?

This October is the tenth anniversary of mai waifu's anime and our anniversary together! I miss Shugo Chara threads.

Because hat period in time was the peak of the golden age of online fansubbing. For the first time, people were really watching shows just as they aired in Japan. They were the gateway to the viewing habits cultivated by /a/ today. In 2008/09, Crunchyroll went legit and fansubs slowly started to fade out as a result. Now pretty much EVERY show, no matter how ludicrously niche is available. But back in the day, you would only have access to the labours of fansubbers' love. These shows stayed with us as classics of /a/ henceforth.

Damn, thanks man. I didn't think I would get to see it again
>>161797643
hey man through some kind of miracle we have a 300 post Manabi Straight thread on our hands, maybe it's time to wing a Shugo Chara thread and see how that goes
>>161797861
Only if KoG shows up. He contributed a lot in the Shugo Chara threads.
>>161797629
He meant the 2008 bubbles, the one with Bernie Made-off.
>>161797367
Around then DTV encryption was cracked enabling people to save the raw video streams, encoders switched to h264 and softsubbed mkvs became the norm. This improved picture quality a lot along with shortening the time from broadcast to fansubbed release.

Why is that boy trying to seduce me?
>>161813197
He's just reading, don't be such a dingdong anon.
>>161813630
No, no, Mei is obviously a girl. It's Mucchi who is a boy.
>>161813197

>>161813682
Nothing gets past you, anon.
Ai Nonaka's daft slurpy voice was perfect
>>161813682

>>161814718
Naw. I was more referring to the 'draw a boy, call it a boy' concept that means you could apply >>161813197
to any anime/mango female until the box is opened and the boobs are observed.
>>161814809
>'draw a boy, call it a boy'
You know what I mean.
Why is this thread up? Wasn't I the only one who enjoyed the show?
I'll watch this someday.
I believe.
Polished [polished] (Eclipse-gg) subs resynced to ReinForce raws with fonts and shit. Now you don't have any excuse to watch inferior releases.
https://a.pomf.cat/lpamwl.7zI love this show.
>>161815567
>20 gigs
>release I watched is under 2
Oh I have an excuse alrightThanks for the subs though
So what are the chances of another season by ufotable?
>>161816396
The show rather infamously barely broke even, and then man driving it in the first place left the studio. Nil.
>>161816396
Release Girls Work first
>>161816396
Even less that Haruhi S3.
>>161816396
