/m/ words you live by
Tokushit isn't /m/
>>15486708
Say that to the sentai and rider threads
>>15486719
Just because the mods allow it doesn't make it true
>>15486708
But, anon...FOOD!
Is this an xpearse thread?
>>15486697
Of course it isn't. Toku is just a medium, not a genre or franchise. Toku is no more /m/ than animation or video games are. Individual toku shows are, just like individual anime and video games. There's nothing more /m/ about Marcross 7 or Tekkaman than Super Sentai or Kamen Rider. Nor about Guyver in comparison to Garo for that matter.
>>15486697
>>15486763
You'll just have to deal with it. Mods said toku is /m/ years ago and its fans swear by it.
In that case, post whatever the fuck you want that's toku, regardless of whether it's /m/ or not, Godzilla, Garo etc because the mods will allow it.
>>15486774
There's not much to deal with, even if I felt it was something unpleasant in the first place. The mods may have decreed that all toku is /m/, but they still deleted several Sailor Moon toku threads, and most toku threads are for either Kamen Rider, Super Sentai, Ultraman or Garo - 3 out of the 4 of which have obvious mecha anyways, while the remaining one, Garo, is pretty obviously mecha inspired at the very least and is about as power armor as Guyver. Metal Heroes or a few other shows get the odd thread, but most of the other toku that do are also pretty /m/. There have been a few other fringe cases, like The Hero Yoshihiko and Aoi Honoo but they only got a few threads total and were mostly here on a similar basis to how Devilman, Violence Jack or whatever else is: they're from mecha creators or concern them or whatever, and frankly, no other board is interested in them, so they're /m/ since most people simply don't care to object and they barely register as a blip on the radar given how quiet they are.

Deep.
>>15487121
And we allow Godzilla even though it's about giant monsters and not giant robots.
>>15487121
Every once in a while I start an Akakage or Gegege no Kitaro thread just to see what would happen. Generally they become 50% conversation about the show itself, 50% existential crisis about what /m/ is.
The wisest man in the show. Rest in rip.
All day every day
>>15486708
Cybornetic is /m/ related?
That's what your saying?
>>15486763
>Toku is just a medium, not a genre or franchise
Toku is a genre, with its specific conventions and tropes. It is not a medium; toku entries air either on TV or in theaters, rather than on a unique platform.
>This X isn't just for show
I love these words.
>>15486708
Neither is anime or video games. But when those anime, videogames, or tokushit contain mecha, they become fair game for the board. Sentai's pretty solidly /m/. Giant robots and all that. Early Kamen Rider was about cyborgs. Other seasons were about power armor. Also solid /m/ material. Lots of recent seasons just go "LOL RIDER POWERS", and those ones are iffy. A connection to a mecha series is not necessarily enough to call it /m/ material. Ultraman and kaijushit? Giant fleshbags. They can fuck right the fuck off.

I guess we'd better just start banning Escaflowne and Rayearth if magic-based /m/ isn't allowed.
>>15489441
That's not the same thing, and you know it. Escaflowne is a robot with a magic power source. "LOL RIDER POWERS" is just magical girl (male).
>>15486697
But in reality, just what's said in this pic
>>15487126
Oh shit, was Dougram translated into Russian too? How did you guys like it? Are there a lot of Russian Dougram fans out there?

We don't appreciate rudeness on our board.
>>15489420
Animation is apparently a genre too. And plays, since those have conventions and can be seen in multiple ways.
>>15489561
Online piracy makes wonders
I still haven't finished it. It's cool and all that, but the visual part is too weak.
There are almost no Dougram fans in Russia.

That's exactly why it's true

Books are also a genre, since you can read them in print or digitally.
>>15486708
As a tokufag I totally agree, I fucking hate mecha shit but this is the only place that has some level of non-awful toku talk, so I am forced to return here.

Mechagodzilla, Jet Jaguar, and Moguera would like words with you
