4chan hasn't been an exclusively anime board in a decade, you fags. Enough, already.

>>68867964
It's still an anime site and it's ridiculous to come here and throw a tantrum because someone mentioned anime. In fact it would be ridiculous on any site.

>>68867903
Super late, but I wanted you to know you have that good ass taste.

You might also like the ED to Aku no Hana. It's just really appropriate, not a jpop banger.

Then fucking say that. Don't go off on some pretence that this is "an anime board"

>>68869049
But this is an anime site whether you like it or not.

>>68869135
Great counter-argument. Got any proof outside of "its origins" or the fact that some subsets of it talk about anime?

>>68869203
4chan was founded to discuss anime and today has a vastly disproportionate number of boards dedicated to anime/2D/Japan. Nearly every banner is anime/2D/Japan.

You must be an absolute newfag if you think this is something I need to "prove."

>>68869286
I don't like anime and anyways this website is just for getting funny screencaps so your post isn't an argument

>>68869286
>4chan was founded to discuss anime
Myspace was founded to bring exposure to underground bands and aspiring actors.

Encyclopedia Dramatica was founded to document LiveJournal drama.

YouTube was founded for people to post their home movies.

>Nearly every banner is anime/2D/Japan.
Wow. That definitely proves it. You got me. Well said

>>68869328
>I got BTFO because I'm a clueless newfag so your post isn't an argument
ok

>>68869331
I see you conviniently ignored what I said about the disproportionate number of anime/2D/Japan boards.

The bottomnline is that you entitled millennial normalfag social media shitters just can't stand the fact that 4chan doesn't cater to you and is full of anime, so you come here and try to subvert the place and turn it into Facebook 2.0 so it won't trigger you anymore.

>>68869353

Because I could only use the sarcastic "Yeah, wow, way to go champ" punchline once.

Project a little harder. I think there's still some room left.

I didn't say anything to imply I wanted this place to be Facebook 2.0 at all. Just that I thought it was a bullshit, decade-old excuse that didn't address the fundamental issue that anime blows.

You, meanwhile, sound like an agitated weeb who's angry we're taking away their "safe space". There are loads of places that cater to you, though. Might I recommend DeviantArt or Reddit?

It doesn't matter that you don't use them. This site does not revolve around you.

>>68869409
>Because I could only use the sarcastic "Yeah, wow, way to go champ" punchline once.
Or because you have no response to it.

Then so does everything else, and the fact that you think anime blows is completely irrelevant in any case.

>You, meanwhile, sound like an agitated weeb who's angry we're taking away their "safe space".
I'm not a weeb, and no shit people get agitated when you normalshitter fucks come here and try to take over because you think every inch of the web has to be an extension of your social media shitholes.

>There are loads of places that cater to you, though.
4chan, for example.

>I was not projecting.
>I'm not a weeb, and no shit people get agitated when you normalshitter fucks come here and try to take over because you think every inch of the web has to be an extension of your social media shitholes.

What are you babbling about? It's the point that started this whole conversation off in the first place, you fucking retard. This isn't even changing goalposts.

It isn't. It is not normal for a site to have as many anime/2d/Japan boards as 4chan does. 4chan has way too many of them.

>What are you babbling about?

>It's the point that started this whole conversation off in the first place, you fucking retard.
Started it needlessly. It doesn't fucking matter how much anime triggers you, it's irrelevant.

I try to avoid /mu/ outside of sharethreads, and this thread supports my attitude.

Most people who browse /mu/ are probably from r/indieheads so when they see anime they get triggered and want it banned.

I agree. Let me know when you approach a point, though.

>What are you?
I'm saying "anime being garbage" is the entire point and this ride we're on now is a tangent.

Second to worst, I'd argue.

>>68869590
I'm not advocating for the erasure of anime. You people can like whatever crap you want. I'm just saying 4chan hasn't been "an anime imageboard" in a real long time. So kindly stop using it as an excuse? If you're triggered by us coming into these threads to point out how shit anime is that's fine. But respond with an excuse that's at least tangentially rooted in reality. Just own your terrible taste.

You're completely allowed to think anime is shit.

What's not allowed is to shit up threads that you have no bloody interest in, you bone-headed mongoloid.

Anime will never, EVER get banned on 4chan, under ANY circumstances.

Can't handle that, Reddit is always open.
Now quit fucking arguing and cease this pointless charade.

>>68869628
>Can't have been that amazing if you missed the point like that.
Then what was the point? Let's hear it.

>I agree. Let me know when you approach a point, though.
The point very obviously is that the number of such boards is very disproportional and not something that would happen on a site that does not specialize in those topics. I'm guessing you've never been to forums and such so you have no idea how they work.

>I'm saying "anime being garbage" is the entire point and this ride we're on now is a tangent.
Then everything else is garbage too, and in any case it's irrelevant that anime triggers you.

>I'm just saying 4chan hasn't been "an anime imageboard" in a real long time
It has always been one. If you don't like it go back to Facebook.

It is, the story and characters made no fucking sense and were poorly handled.

Which was especially disappointing after coming off Tsurumaki's previous work, FLCL(Which is probably one of the greatest coming-of-age stories in any medium).

The tie in to Gunbuster's ending in Diebuster's ending was cute I guess, but it was forgettable shit for the most part.

Tatami Galaxy is such a gorgeous anime, but the first time watching it is really hard to follow. I want to watch the sweet art, but he dialogue is so fast that I'm forced to keep up with the subtitles.

AND YOU DONT SEEM TO UNDERSTAND

>>68870063
Have you tried adopting the mindset that anime is a broad medium and you can like many different things for different reasons? I don't think I ever see people think this way about cinema, literature, video games or music, but it's really common with anime.

>>68870063
Kaiba and Ping Pong have the same chief animation director/character designer and the same director.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KFI_Fl1sRWg

>>68870111
I know what you mean. There is some great shows I've watched since Tatami Galaxy, but none have been as fulfilling for me, which I think is really what I'm looking for.

Obviously it didn't "ruin anime" for me, that's a bit of an exaggeration. But now I'm searching for a show that can make me feel how I felt when I watched that one. At the same time I think I just have to remember that some experiences are unique and only happen once. But that doesn't mean I'll never enjoy anything else.

I think in the short term you see similar things in cinema, literature, music, and video games. Right after finishing something you're still desperately in love with it, so it's hard to move on. Everything seems uninteresting in comparison.

>>68870130
Seen them both. They both are incredibly great. Definitely worth the watch.

>>68870170
I feel the same way about FLCL and NGE, they were some of the first shows I've ever watched and to this day I haven't seen any other shows that hit me on a personal level.

I haven't seen TTG yet though, I'll have to get started on that soon since I liked Kaiba nd Ping Pong.

>>68870339
It's very rare for anime to have Western music in it, and most examples can be found during the American anime boom period of the late 90s and mid 00s. I don't know why Western music was used though. The normal thing to do is to record a new song so it can be sold as a single. The record company may be on the production committee too.

"J-rock/pop" doesn't mean anything, and the fact that a song belongs in genre X or category Y doesn't mean it's pandering.

>>68871501
I'm the one that called it pandering garbage, because it is. It's almost always very poorly written, bland and with either the main characters voice actor or someone who sounds very similar singing it. The fact that most of that garbage happens to fall in the J-pop section is kinda just inherent to the genre. I mean take Big House music; a genre of dog shit. It's not always the case clearly but far too many animes have ear throbbing, obnoxious songs only fit for a hyper child that only knows what fun is.
