Why is anime and Japanese culture so popular with normies now?

>implying snoop is a normie

Some nerds get a life and retain their love for geek shit and spread it or incorporate it into their swag. I just watched the new berserk with my pussy slaying jamal weed dealer.

Its not thet just pretend to like it to look quirky

Nerd/weeaboo culture is "in" right now.

My friend made a "japanese" inspired beat tape and literally all the sampls used were from naruto and I know that nigga did not watch all 700 episodes. He probably doesn't even know the general plot

>implying niggers aren't the biggest weebs

Maybe if you're still living in the fucking 90s or early 2000s. SJWs criticize weebs as being fetishists and asians are going full retard with the "stop enjoying our culture" shit too. Majority of liberals don't want weebs and a majority of conservatives find them appalling since many of them are NEETs or drains on society.

I can see an argument that "nerd" culture is the hip thing still but weeb shit is still taboo for normies since they still have that "lol what hentai are you watching anon?" attitude.

If anyone willingly subjects themselves to 700 episodes of Naruto they deserve to be hanged anyway.

>now

Japanese weeaboo things have been popular with normies before you were born.

I used to watch it as a kid, got crunchyroll and decided to finish what I started. Worst part is, I'm watching boruto too.

Shit, anon. I mean I hate myself too but that's just inhumane.

I could understand that attitude if you're a proper robot, but most normies are already very warmed up to most classic animes and think they've found some deep, meaningful new artform.

If you watch weird lolishit then yeah you're still gunna get shunned but the more tame moe anime is gaining lots of traction.

>>37260524
because anime are for normies? Real robot watch My little pony

Maybe among entry level weebs and faggots who call themselves "otaku" when it's a fucking insult in the Japanese language they're trying to learn through anime. Majority of people will just call it "weird" because it would be too harsh to call someone a pedo. I've seen plenty of people call anime pedophilic and criticize its fans for "fetishizing underaged girls" so again I don't really see where you're seeing the opposite happen.
