>>287902106That's an End Card, seen at TV episodes' end
I remember a piece of PPD! hentai that was scrubbed off the face of the internet and only I remember it. Unless I remembered it differently.
I watched Pani Poni Dash for the first time during the Christmas stream and while watching it, I decided to count how many TL notes appeared on screen for each episode of the Oyasumi and gg release of the anime that was used on the stream. However, I had to miss the last few days of the stream and I wasn't able to finish my TL note count during the stream. A few days after the stream was over, I watched the last few episodes that I missed and finished the TL note count and I thought it would be appropriate to wait until Cinco de Maho to post my final results to the interest of no one just so that my autism doesn't go to waste.Episode 1: 14Episode 2: 22Episode 3: 15Episode 4: 29Episode 5: 28Episode 6: 33Episode 7: 37Episode 8: 62Episode 9: 21Episode 10: 28Episode 11: 10Episode 12: 31Episode 13: 4Episode 14: 10Episode 15: 28Episode 16: 9Episode 17: 24Episode 18: 12Episode 19: 11Episode 20: 5Episode 21: 8Episode 22: 10Episode 23: 6Episode 24: 15Episode 25: 4Episode 26: 12OVA: 0There are a grand total of 488 TL notes throughout the Oyasumi and gg release, with a rounded average of 19 TL notes per episode.

>>287902309Thank you very much anon!>Episode 8: 62Shin Oonuma really poured everything to that episodeIt's a pity that the OVA had no TL notes, even the Japanese on the wiki don't know some of the references. There was one blog that started doing TL notes for OVA but never updated past the pre-credits part: https://web.archive.org/web/20160321075628/http://finella.nemissa.info/pani-poni-dash-ova-reference-guide/
Hey Nani, I know you can read this.
I want to have sexo with the twins, thank you for your attention in this matter.
Isn't there an Isekai anime from the PPD! mangaka airing next season?
>>287902372Yes, Hanaori-san. I don't know if the correct term is "reverse isekai", since the demon lord and the warrior woman were reborn to human world.Let's see if it has any nods towards to PPD

>>287902309The episodes subbed by gg also had PDFs with additional TL notes that I decided to count separately from the TL notes that were on screen. I will admit that these numbers may not be completely accurate since the TL notes for all of the images of the chalkboard had several notes grouped together for each image that I may have miscounted.Episode 11: 33Episode 12: 49Episode 13: 26Episode 14: 45Episode 15: 44Episode 16: 64Episode 17: 77Episode 18: 37Episode 19: 157Episode 20: 118Episode 21: 111Episode 22: 118Episode 23: 59Episode 24: 81All of the PDFs had a total of 1,019 TL notes, with a rounded average of 73 TL notes per PDF.>>287902355I am glad you appreciate it. I wasn't aware of this blog and looking through it, I will make a note of the 11 TL notes in the blog. I'll keep it separate from the rest of the count since it's unfinished.>It's a pity that the OVA had no TL notesThe OVA did have a dead TinyURL link to TL notes for the OVA that I had to exclude from this count. I don't know if the TL notes were ever finished for the OVA or if they have been archived on another site.

>>287901482It's not as Japanese Family Guy as people say it is, the references get played for really long situational comedy a lot longer than they're cutaways/throwaways, but I still don't like it.
>>287902538Holy shit, PPD really accelated the references to the latter half of the series.I used both the reference blog and Japanese Pani Poni Wiki to compile and translate the scribbles, and to explain the references from the OVA to its own page:https://momotsuki.neocities.org/anime/ovaHowever, I don't know some of the references, like what film/drama is picrel supposed to be. My page has pics of the "unknown references", so anyone can hit me up and tell if they know the reference
I never knew PPD had a dub until the sticky music changed over
>>287902570Americans falling asleep and euros haven't woken up yet. PPD was 40 years ago mind you.
>>287902403Fear not, they travel to other worlds anyways so it's isekai regardless.

>>287901428Recently watched PaniPoni and I loved it, even if I missed a lot of references, the one I got were rewarding. I think it’s very unique and has a good cast of characters even though they are all limited by being comedic. Absolutely amazing OPs and EDs, and a lot of love from Shaft that made so many different cards, songs, ED versions, for most of the cast, used puppets too.Among my favourite characters>Bekki>Mesousa>Himeko>Kurumi>BehoimiFavourite recurrent gags>HauHau>Rararu>ia ia ia>Maho>Mahou shoujo Behoimi

>>287902605I'd say it's more that early PPD fully is reliant on references but then it levels out pretty fairly later on and settles more into its own humor and narrative. I didn't like it either.
these little girls are very sexy
>>287903750The most soothing comedic duo.

>>287901469SHUTTHEFUCKUP
>>287903655Anon, sharteens do it without a shred of irony. It's not even (You) worthy.
>>287902605>>287903849I think people get too stuck on understanding the references that it takes their focus away from the story. On my first watch, I got less than half of the references since I didn't know what was going on, but I enjoyed the whole show to the end. References in PPD are most of the time "Easter Eggs", and the viewer isn't required to understand it in order to get the joke in the situation. But I understand both of (You)r sentiment
>>287903881I think they were more of clam-lickers in the manga. I need to reread it in its entirety, and finally read the untranslated part. The language just scared me years ago and I never tried again.
>>287903970This image took me ages to find; I need to finally clean up all old harddrives and get the images from them on the desktop tower.
>check /a/ before bed>get earrapedThanks, mods.
>>287903970Seems like Hikawa took a lot of note of the dramatic twists of PPD, like with the story arc where Himeko transports into another realm with several Himekos and no Becky. I gotta read the final volumes soon enough
>>287903942It's moreso that I'd say, without it, there's not much to say. It's otherwise just a very standard gag anime focused on school girls. I walked away from it without really having anything like a favorite episode or joke, nor really remembering anything specific that I liked about the girls other than>Beccy going "jajaja" >Maho>Ichijo basically becoming a cryptidFor me, it'd be something that I would've have found to be an okay seasonal show if I was without anything to watch during the season, if only for just the OPs alone being worth watching it for. That, coupled with the references undoubtedly having a lot of presence regardless, is why I'd go as far as to describe it in that way. Otherwise there's not much to it, at least in my book. The most favorable thing I can say is that I can recognize that it would be a really fun watch if you do really take to the cast.
Redpill me on this show
>>287904026>he set autoplay on 4chanYour own fault.
>>287901614good shit
>>287904039Oh, there's a lot to it. For example Becky is likely the best written math PhD in anime. Very few writers get the mathematical way of thinking, but Hekiru is one of them.
>>287902510/a/ is slower now than it ever was. It's even slower than 2009
>>287904076References are part of this, but also there was an enormous attention to detail for the girls overall. That comes from the manga too - Hekiru averages more than 1 unique costume for Becky per chapter.
>>287904093>/a/ is getting quieter, slower, and might actually have a real shot at becoming good again as a resultMaybe the passage of time isn't so bad after all
>>287904044I have about 15 of these running. Glorious beauty to my ears.
>>287904099The entire cast is quite memorable overall, which is a hard thing to accomplish with such a large cast. And so on and so on...But yeah, in the end it's a gag anime focused on school girls. It's likely the good old truth how fans of a specific genre will find the differences inside it much bigger than outsiders would perceive them as. And I am definitely into the "gag anime focused on school girls" genre.
>>287904039You're right, references are the spice for the show. What I meant was that even if you don't know the reference is to some obscure mecha from 80s, you can enjoy the action and flow despite of that. Though, I can see what you mean
>>287904106The quality hasn't been going up as seed has been going down. If anything it's gotten worse
A good reference should be amusing on its own with minimal or no prior knowledge.>goofy aliens now serious-looking sci-fi>it's a Star Trek reference>the Alien Captain has Picard's japanese dub VA
>>287904149I see objectively less /pol/ and battle shonen shit this year than the last so many years ... it's been almost a decade, I guess.Note that I come to /a/ only for Cinco de Maho and nothing else.
>>287904116That's why I'd say here >>287904039 that>The most favorable thing I can say is that I can recognize that it would be a really fun watch if you do really take to the cast.In my judgement of the show, I wouldn't ever say that it's low quality. The effort was easy to recognize, and yeah: even though I traditionally have a hard time remembering names in larger casts, I can still remember most of them as characters quite distinctly, and they did well to integrate them all together despite such a clashing bunch of archetypes.It's just that, yeah, without being someone that is really into/is inherently intrigued by cute school girls in a gag anime, it just didn't have enough to it that really leaps out across that gap, and so finer details that you'd have to cross said gap to notice aren't as able to be appreciated. I'm just not as favorable towards it because I feel like there's a lot of other shows about cute girls that I have watched and enjoyed, or have otherwise crossed that gap for me, but I won't go into further as that tangent can easily go into the weeds and is well outside the scope of the topic of this thread and my capability to discuss it at 5AM>>287904126Fair enough. I realize in my first post I said "fully reliant," and yeah that's pretty heavy handed considering that there's not even a references to gags that I did enjoy, like early Ichijo having nothing to add but her role or the forgettable class member that I fittingly forget the name of (although, I can easily imagine someone can pull out those massive TL Note PDFs and show that these were in fact obscure references as well)
>>287904040We got cute girls, big boobs, a magical girl, a little sister, cyborgs, maids, yankees, mecha, cooking, space opera, video games, hot-blooded shounen action and shoujo romance with a whole jidaigeki (Edo period drama) episode
>>287904198I guess that's likely exactly why it's the favourite show ever of so many people, including me. A somewhat more niche appeal that allows people to really fall deeply in love.
>>287904040
Wew, didn't realize my copy was this ass.
>>287904198>Ichijo having nothing to addGuess that's why there were several character-focused episodes, like with that episode about Ichijou's love, or the one with No.6's romance. Otherwise it would've been just repeating the same jokes. Episode 19 was deliberatedly made to give more focus on Class D instead of always showing Class C's adventures>>287904230This, having watched the show several times (to find ever-so more references) has deepend my bond to it
>>287904230Or maybe Beccy's niche has a lot of appeal if you know what I'm saying
>>287902051I watched the first episode, maho girl and Becky are really cute but the "comedy" is painfully unfunny and a chore to sit through, I don't think I can do another 25 episodes of it. And not because I don't get the references, because the ones I do get are just as unfunny as the ones I don't.I'm sure if I watched this 20 years ago I'd have a soft spot for it though.
>>287904248It's an upscale and the original DVDs couldn't handle the amount of bullshit going on.Then you seem to have ADV's DVD-subs, which are the best ones but fugly due to DVD limitations.[ANE] was working on converting these VOBSUBS to .ASS.
>>287904093and altchans are total ghost towns on top of thatIs imageboard culture as a whole just dying?
>>287904191>Note that I come to /a/ only for Cinco de MahoWhere do you spend the rest of your time? Give me some nice forums
pity bump
>>287904341The dead board in the shadow of the Goddess is even more dead now, so ... yeah. I can't tell you anything, my only interaction with the outside world is following jp artists on twatter.
>>287904198Tbh, someone might also enjoy it just for the atmosphere.
>>287902389i care about it more about Cinco de Maho than 4th of july or thanksgiving or whatever you burger boys celebrate. At least latino holidays have more international pull. im british and couldn't tell you the first thing about thanksgiving. You eat turkeys and watch tv or something? It is a mystery to me.
>>287904309If anybody from [ANE] is around, just give me the encodes and the finished scripts, I will complete the release.
>>287904335Yes. Discord (IRC 3.0) won hard. Even with its soon to be mandatory ID stuff.>file share>channel and sub channel>IM/DM capability>voip>billions of servers/channels>user base large than IRC at peak>maintains historyIt's not anonymous, but create enough accounts and it sorta coulda been, still has the forum clique/seniority downside but so do we. It's a honeypot, we're a honeypot, everythings a honeypot at this point if you actually want to have SOME level of traffic.
>>287904335It's a cycle
>>287904273That too.
>>287904191There's objectively less everything. Shonen and /pol/ threads are still the fastest on the board
>>287904341A dead chatroom with Shift JIS-faced cats.
>>287904427When there are new episodes, Precure and whatever idol show(if there are any) and the yuri threads are faster than shonen.
>>287904093>>287904427You're right. /a/ is over. You should leave immediately before it collapses in upon you. Fly, fly now.
>>287901428Happy Cinco de Maho!
Becky is the cutest and dresses nice! Maho!
what the fuck does maho even mean
>>287904427True, /a/ will get fixed only if the mods decide to ban any /pol/ or WSJ battle shonen posting. But still, 4 shit threads on the front page is significantly less than the typical 7-8 shit threads on the front page that I saw in previous years.
Cinco de Maho again!?
>>287904309Wow that's a very long mouth.
>>287904491Honestly it gotten so bad that Desu is being used by the biggest schizos to shitpost with themselves. Literally, it's like 10 of the biggest retards sitting in a thread spamming to each other
>>287904475it means magic
>>287904475it means mmonkey
>>287901428maho obuzayeea desu

I enjoy pani poni dosh
Good day ahead!
Is PPD a summer anime?
>>287904491I don't think that would be enough. /a/ has other arguably bigger problems. Both /a/'s culture and the wider internet's culture has gone down the shitter. Board culture is totally dead, everyone just comes for the couple threads of the series they're reading and doesn't interact with the wider board at all. People in general, not just /a/ have gotten much more bitter and hostile. Nobody is looking to have conversations anymore, they're looking to "win" conversations. The camaraderie that existed before is totally gone. There was a sort of understanding that even if we disagree and argue at the end of the day we're still birds of a feather and here to discuss a hobby we love. Nowadays everyone genuinely fucking hates their fellow Anons. And the fucking schizos Jesus Christ.
>>287904093This isn't a bad thing IMO.
>>287904191Subjectively speaking, I think the quality in a lot of seasonal anime threads has risen, and objectively speaking, the rise of the Daily threads has been a great addition to the board. It's honestly baffling reading through a lot of them and seeing just how much a lot of first time and repeat readers are able to seamlessly come together to genuinely discuss stories in full
>>287904654>everyone just comes for the couple threads of the series they're reading and doesn't interact with the wider board at allThere's a lot of microcultures here and it's becoming a cesspool, some people are using 4chan like discord.>Nobody is looking to have conversations anymore, they're looking to "win" conversationsI still have fulfilling conversations with people on /a/ and funposting with everyone is great too.>And the fucking schizos Jesus Christ.Every problem you described is caused by the "schizos" (read: /qa/, sharty and twitter newfags)
>>287901874
>>287904701Most of the problems are literally caused by mods letting the problem fester for so long. /dbs/ for instance only now started getting overly moded, which lead to them creating this new retarded /ghost/ posting culture where the biggest schizos bait and reply to themselves on desu.
Moha
>>287902510Last year the sticky was less active. The mods were even late in setting up the song. I think a lot of anons myself included have a short memory from all this media consumption and thus end up forgetting about such days.
Happy birthday Mexico or whatever
>>287904654>Nobody is looking to have conversations anymore, they're looking to "win" conversations.I feel this is the worst part about everything as of late. So many people are just foreign to the whole idea of conversation. Either that, or they came to the site fully convinced it was just a place for everyone to be assholes like they saw in memes, and think everyone truly is just in for their own self-satisfaction or to argue the most pure form of truth or whatever the fuck.So instead of threads being a place where you WANT to speak with other people and you WANT them to hear you and interact from there, it's one where they HAVE to hear you because you're spitting dat mad truth and they're getting totally BTFO and umad? But meh, frankly speaking, there's always been assholes similar to that, and it's usually avoided the same way it's always been avoided. The only real negative change is more that public faith has been eroded, so while the worst hasn't necessarily gotten worse, the good have been slightly discouraged. The best that can be done is to keep a stiff upper lip and be a willing participant in what is good, as to keep building it back up
i have no idea what this is or why this thread's so slow
>>287904701Generals lasted too long. They're here to stay now. Their brand of insanity isn't something I understand, thus have categorized it as 'bots/shills' who will post the same inane shite all day long. I miss when we just had spoiler-raw-release-release.pt2-then basically nothing for 5 days (when/if official got released to compare tl)./vg/s template was a mistake. Whilst they could have useful info, as per OP->3rd as a wall of text info dump, they turned to complete shit as those dedicated to title A would try to keep threads alive forever, having the same conversation, same info, eventually drivel all just to make sure they had presence. This is where people were trying to turn the impermanence into permanence, and on a site like this it fucking sucks moot was right after all, it also turned title specific generals into what could have been a stickied/curated forum post, what generals were trying to be, and it's had disastrous consequences.To digress a little, it why I think /b/ eventually died the way it did. Reposts of reposts. People not doing edits/jokes for fun, but an endless 'this was funny, lets see it again' and then it wasn't. Can't converse with a few individuals and theorize on title X cause between your replies to each other is 50-100 posts or utterly inane shit.
>>287904868Not him but I joined with basically that mentality except I started out on /b/ and eventually moved to /a/ after I calmed down.There will always be people who want to troll and since /b/ is dead they have nowhere else to troll but on /a/.A true revival of 4chan should start with a cleanup of /b/ by removing almost all porn threads and bringing back OC threads.>>287904928Yeah I ended up leaving a few threads turned generals because the people on them post the exact same shit everyday and have a deep hatred of any new OC./b/ was also killed by the "/b/ was always shit" meme cuz it made people complacent.

>>287901428Oh fuck I almost missed Cinco de Maho!
This was one of the first animes I ever watched but I don't remember much besides Becky and the cat-thing.
Carzy how this post sums up the average newfag >>287905057
in finnish, maho means "barren", as in a barren woman. you could use this song as an insult.that is all.
>>287901614Man your site looks so cute and pleasant. I should probably make one myself.
>>287904694Alright fine maybe I'll finally check out those dail->not a single manga I'd wanna readFUCK
>>287905174>ぱにぽに2期はよ"I want Pani Poni Season 2 soon"Me too...
>>287901428Almost late to the thread but I now have Maho in two tabs to post since Cloudflare is discriminating again.
>>287901614wtf he wrote a Behoimi spinoff? and the latest work is a isekai about a demon king and is going to get anime this year? bikkuri of the year...
>>287904694>>287905252Tbh, I don't read storytimes because I like to enjoy stories by myself. That's why I also never watch an anime for the first time on an /a/ stream. I might rarely look at a storytime of one my favorites to see the discussions. I have nothing but admiration for the anons that translate japanese manga while storytiming them though.
>>287903001you really are pathetic
>>287905326It was a fun surprise to find out that the spin-off got fully translated this year:https://mangadex.org/title/cd5a3817-092b-40ee-81d3-abc394044c80/shin-kankaku-iyashikei-mahou-shoujo-behoimi-chan?tab=chapters
The average Iq of the average /a/ >>287905311shitposter is extremely low. It's the year 2026 and the concept of a retard using two different devices to shitpost just doesn't click with them.
>>287905377Yeah, on two different IPs as wellOccam's razor you retard, two election tourists happened to post at the exact same time is more likely than your conspiracy
>>287905389>Yeah, on two different IPsBoy, the concept is so fucking lost that people actually are too retarded to understand how easy it is to post from a fucking fun and a computer at the same time
I already loved this show before stickies became a regular thing, so it feels like a nice random bonus.

Posting in a sticky.
I would have sex with all of the PPD girls.
>>287905437>>287905389>>287905057Gonna keep samefagging there. Only so many times you can spam the word "brown" before you get outted as one
>>287901808That's a lot of エロイ.
>>287905252I honestly found it to be good even for the shit I didn't wanna read. When I saw someone start One Piece, it was a good "fuck it" moment to really give it a shot after finding the anime to be so shallow and often annoying on the couple of occasions I tried to give it an honest go. Reading through it day by day showed me parts of it that I was able to genuinely enjoy with far better pacing and visual direction, it was great being able to discuss them without the shitposting I see happen to the actual One Piece threads when I'm browsing through the catalog, and I got to stay with it for a while until I found my natural stopping point where it was clearly getting worse and left them to continue on their own.
>>287905480You really fancy yourself a lot cleverer than you really are, huh?Don't ever reply to me again
>>287905311I've seen shitposters do this by posting the exact same image and text twice in a second.

This year Serizawa has been getting too little love. Did you guys stop loving tomboys?
>>287904654Yeah, I remember being active here on /a/, then on desuchan, cloudchan, fapchan and whatever board had interesting discussions, specially on /b/ during raid/doxx days, nowadays being and oldfag anon doesn't feel like 20 years ago anymore.We should all say thanks to trooncord and trannyddit

Guys, we left Mesousa in /sp/!

Mesousa is the greatest comedy character of all time. His patheticness is so perfectly tuned that every scene he's in had me dying

>>287906573He'll find his way back
>>287904093>as slow as when I started posting hereOne significant difference is that you had to F5 manually to see new posts. It was way less chat-like. There wasn't a catalog either most time. Effectively, /a/ as of today is even slower than 2008.>>287904106Even slice of life threads are regularly getting ruined by schizo nonsense now.
Posting in a Maho Shoujo thread.
>>287904654>they're looking to "win" conversations.And in the dumbest, cheapest way possible.
>>287904868Their brains are fried by social media. They normally interact only with their ingroup, which are all "based" and have exactly the same kind of opinions. For anything else, there are memes that remind/explain to them why they should hate them.
Seriously FUCK OFF MOD CUNT! This was never funny and will never be. This shit is cringe and stop try harding to be "part of the community". We all know you are some dumb discord tranny trying to hold on to some relevance when no one fucking gives a shit about your fake try hard "look guys i'm 4chan culture"You website is dying cause you are all a bunch of psyop glowies and Rapeape is a watch black mentally out of touch twitter fag.The website is dying becasue of the current 4chan team START DOING SOMETHING OR LET IT DIE FROM THE NEXT HACK FOR BASEDPARTY!
>>287906941I find it funny
I unironically recognise this retards writing from other threads and he always says and writes like the imbecile that he is, always embarrassing himself
>>287906573Why is he always stuck in bad places?
>>287906941Calm down. Although I don't disagree what you say about the current head.
>>287906941/a/ is dying because it removed almost all of the board culture and replaced it with battle shonens and /pol/ trash. This here is one of the few remaining things that somehow survive to this day.
>>287907079Why do mods and janitors dislike board culture It has to be a pysop right?Some kind of experiment to see if people will just comply with tyrannical actions
there it is
>>287907110
>>287907110The mod staff actually consists of all kinds of retards who all hate /a/.That is my conclusion from 18 years of site use (god why did I waste my life on this trash dump.)
>>287907079>it removed I don't think people did it voluntarily. >battle shonens and /pol/ trash.Most boards on the site are already infected by that. Regarding the culture you have to look at it realistically, most people here are old meaning they no longer have the same enthusiasm and energy to post in the same way they did 20-15 years ago. Do you think the style of posting present in old threads would be possible today?
>>287901428I shall celebrate as per tradition: by raping Becky
>>287907201Of course the mods did it deliberately, that goes without saying.>>287907218No, she's mine to rape

Adding "Chad" to a name is the most low iq shit nu-/a/ has come up with.
>>287907287While I agree, I doubt it even originated on /a/.
>>287907287>yet now it's used everywhere on the site from /v/ to /tv/ to /vg/ to /co/And they say /a/ has no culture...
Was the new bluray rip of this show any good? I believe I heard it was just a poor upscale. Shame, but not much you can do. Anyways, Pani Poni Dash is a great show. Nice to think about it sometimes.
>>287907329>I believe I heard it was just a poor upscale.many such cases for 00s anime.

i found the alt chans fascinating when 4chins was down for weeks because they have boards to fit their very specific needs (mostly gacha and vtubers hue), meta threads get the most posts and there's like ~5 altchans from what i can remember so why even have so many other than "my altchan is better than yours"
>>287902139melli was 8 years ago
>>287907507
>>287907507I will forever miss the original infinity chan, it was a genuine alternative for this site until /pol/tards had to ruin it by killing someone and turning the site into a literal honeypot

>>287904654>People in general, not just /a/ have gotten much more bitter and hostile. Nobody is looking to have conversations anymore, they're looking to "win" conversations.It's social media. Everyone ends up having hugboxes or garbage that reinforces their beliefs recommended to them by the algorithm. Plus the nature of social media is that there's a constant stream of content, so you don't have to engage in a discussion that's over a day old because there's a new one, incentivizing low-tier drive-by snarkposting over actual discussion. And then the rest of the Internet is downstream from there.Facebook and its ilk are a bigger cancer to Internet conversation and culture than the very worst /b/ newfags from 20 years ago.Anyway MAHO

>>287908580Who knows you might have spent that time on equally useless stuff. I do feel that the few times I had fun on 4chan it felt more magic than everywhere on the internet.
>>287908245besides tripfags I wouldn't understand why an anonymous board user would want to set food in shitcord. newfags are an exception of course, they probably got there before learning how to ride a bike
>>287908852>you might have spent that time on equally useless stuffNTA but I think so, too. The same underlying causes (whatever they may be) that made me spend too much time here would've made me waste it somewhere else.

>>287904093Every time there's meta in threads, it has the same cookie cutter responses because retards are unable to accept to the contrary. Yeah, /a/ is slower because there's less and less newfags because younger people are less likely to come here and even among the older users, they're old enough now that they realize they can't feasibly be NEETs for much longer or they'll be homeless.It's the same sorta shit where people used to greentext when anons would post about their friends or girlfriend, people know better (that anons have both) but still want to pretend this place is an elitist space for weirdos that spend all day here. The amount of anons that actually still browse /a/ religiously, disown "crossboarding", turn their nose up at image watermarks like imgflip or ezgif, don't use other sites including social media or shit like Discord, don't spend time doing real life activities in lieu of posting about anime and manga, the list goes on, that amounts to probably so few people that you could count them on hand, if even. TL;DR anons are old and care less about imageboard culture and being selective and are just living their lives. Anyone that still does is a retard stuck in the past.
>>287909464>FAST & LOOSE & HORNYSEX and VIOLENCE with MACHSPEED
>>287904654What wider board? The thread is almost entirely just the threads you’re complaining about. There’s no board culture to interact with because no one is making it, not because no one is interacting with it.
>>287909580Nice headcanon, too bad you're wrong.
>>287909675>There’s no board culture to interact with because no one is making itIt's hard to make culture, most people on 4chan are old.

>>287909580Every oldfag has some group of anons they stick to and don’t give a shit about the board at large anymore. Best example is the Christmas stream, they don’t come here except during their own stream, which is just a more public and advertised version of the stream they run year round.
>>287909763It is, read >>287907201. It's impossible to recreate the old culture
>>287909768You mean everyone on this site? People that started browsing on 2006 or earlier probably make up less than 1% of the site population.
>>287909808For me it's necrobumping slice of life threads for up to 3 weeks.Also I've started the people who come here only for the christmas tourists. Because they are.
>>287909819If that’s the case, then stop bitching about no culture. That’s just how things are and will be.
>>287902607>13:28Kannagi was a thing... that's the avatar of the mangaka Eri Takenashi (who did draw the author's notes as manga pages with the guy).
>>287909847That's the majority of oldfags. So, if you're upset about people that only come back for Christmas or the other holidays, then you're upset that anons moved on without you.
>>287909847I enjoyed the 3 week long sketchbook full color's thread we had recently
>>287909907And?
>>287909955No and, that's it. Funny to see a differing opinion about the people that only come back for those events when every anon in those threads sings their praises for coming back temporarily.
Toastin' in epic bread
>>287909979At least I get to laugh at them for having to solve extra difficult captcha, or not being able to post at all because of the broken bot heuristic.
>>287904191>Doesn't visit /a/>Thinks it's better nowAnyway. The golden rule is. Schizos and the most unwell and most damaged by a place (e.g. those who seek eternal revenge) latch onto a place longest (and post the most).The people leaving, and those behind the drop in users/posts, are by and large the good posters.
>>287903680this is official art? bruh
>>287909808>>287909580I am not an oldfag myself but I think that it doesn't have anything to do with being a "neet" but rather with boredom. At some point you kind of get bored of the same threads again and again and I don't think it's an /a/ only thing, every media board has so many samey threads with the stock replies. Of course there are still a few good threads but after 2 decades I imagine that you lose the patience to find them.
>>287910037They could have just left /a/ for another board.
>>287910070No shit, what a retarded post, you really thought it was necessary to put that into writing?
>>287909808Hey, I'm usually lurking around. I definitely don't actually post that often though.
>>287909884Damn that's some obscure stuff. Never would've thought about that without your help. Thank you very much, anon!
>>287910081They seem to hate nu-4chan speak and every board uses it. I don't see what board they could use.
>>287902192They see me rollin' they hatin'
>>287910070most of the threads are generals and then psuedo generalsthen because the place is even slower everytime you come back you see the same thread son the bottom of the catalog for a week you see newer threads in the catalog but they're just the same as beforebefore id come here all the time out of fomo but now i know i'm not gonna miss anything
>>287909847I shamelessly bump whatever now.My favorite threads deserve to survive more than your shit and I'm objectively making anons' day or board quality slightly better just with helping them stay alive instead.
What did the people disillusioned with the board used to come to /a/ for? Because the main use of /a/ for me has always been weekly episode discussion threads for seasonals and those are basically the same as they've always been at least for the shit I watch. Yes, even back in the day seasonals had dedicated shitposters trying to derail the threads, that's just what it's always been like.
>>287901634Oh Maho is this girl, naruhodo
>azumanga>paniponi>haruhi>yotsubatomore or less the foundational 4chan identity
>>287909979>when every anon in those threads sings their praises for coming back temporarily.I would sing their praise it and listen to their endless stories about their real life if they actually borrowed me some money from all those fancy jobs that they have now.
>Maho sticky>metashitters tourists "I don't visit 4chan and /a/ BUT /a 4chan/ bad" are metashitting >muh generals did thisWhy can't you just die and go back to your discord and plebbit?
>>287909884apparently she already used it at TYPE MOON (Kannagi volume 1).
>>287910156to discuss obscure anime and manga and anime and manga that i like
>>287910156Weekly discussions for seasonals and manga and fun threads. They got old and don't give a shit about anime and manga enough to discuss it anymore or discuss it with their friends instead.
>>287910070>every media board has so many samey threads with the stock repliesThat's true and part of it is organic (e.g. it's easier for artists like me to give stock responses like "god I wish that were me" or "implying" than actually write something) but also there are people (*person, perhaps) who have made it their mission to dilute said boards.e.g. it only takes a group of 50 people to completely own every single thread on /a/. With a phone and a PC, that's 25 people. If you buy 3 4chan passes on top of that each and rotate IPs using a very idiots-can-do-it-too way, you just need 10 people to own the entire catalog. And there's single schizos that will post 50 threads a day.
>>287910179>immediately goes to beggingYou might be even worse than the oldfags that left.
>>287909675Nobody is making it because nobody is interested. Any even remotely fun threads are instantly nuked or die with 0-10 replies
>>287910202*for autists
>>287910199What anime and manga do you like? I am currently watching an obscure(or maybe not idk) anime and I might make a thread about it when I finish it
DDR champ
>>287909907>coming back here for Christmas>the single day of the year you should be spending with your family or literally anyone else other than internet strangers
>>287908189Yeah that makes sense. Doesn't the algo also reward ragebating as well?
>>287908521Kek
>>287910287>unlikable people still don't have people to spend time with on holidaysIncredible.
>>287910253>Any even remotely fun threads are instantly nuked or die with 0-10 repliesThroughout the years some of the paint drawing threads reached bump limit. I am not sure if those would count as culture.
>>287908189>Plus the nature of social media is that there's a constant stream of content, so you don't have to engage in a discussion that's over a day old because there's a new one, incentivizing low-tier drive-by snarkposting over actual discussion.sounds more like 4chan than anything else, the place that literally deletes threads over a day old... if this place was active
>>287910253That isn't true since there's been threads every year, including whenever you want to say this place has gone down the shitter, that are the supposed /a/ culture everyone cries for.
>>287910070new shows have somewhat fresh discussion
>>287909580I would like to be stuck in the past preferably 2009. The present sucks and the future will suck even harder.
>>287910386>new showsnot a single good new show has come out in the last 5 years
>>287904093>/a/ and /tv/ lost 40%/50% of the activity>even though anime and tv shows are extremely popular nowadaysInteresting. I will still always come here for waifu threads or to ask about the best releases/translations for an anime/manga.
Why does the Cinco de Maho thread have to be filled with boring meta discussion? Personally I think 2026 /a/ has already been better than 2025 which post-hack was a disaster. Yes, the board is slower but that's not particular to /a/ and just representative of the rest of the 4chan. Ever since the mods instituted aggressive proxy filters and such since the start of the years I've even noticed a decline in schizos.
>>287910491>Why does a board culture thread about an anime that the majority of modern /a/ hasn't watched have to be about meta discussion, including board cultureIt is a mystery.
>>287910386I agree but only if it's obscure otherwise it's filled with the same 4 spammers. >>287910455Nah even if you don't like any anime made by a studio, indie animation in Japan has slowly begin to become more widespread. In a few year I predict that there will be some indie anime studios.
>>287910522This is a board culture thread about Pani Poni Dash, not a dump to continuously relitigate moronic shit about the board
Post 1 funny joke from PPD, just 1.
>>287910491We have metashitter making metashit threads almost every week. Probably shartyteens discovered a safe way to shitpost or altchan subhumans. A lot tourists here are for fast epic memes and they're upset nobody entertains them.
>>287910586Every fucking sticky isn't a dump to relitigate moronic shit about the board. Guess what happens in every single one?
Pani Poni Dash is the best thing that Shaft ever made. It rides the line between avant garde and otaku pandering harder than anything Shaft made, and that's saying a lot. The fact that this is the oldest recognizable show in the definitive Shaft style is almost like a strange miracle.
>>287910187Thank you for this one as well, anon!

>>287910641So don't reply.
This thread has been more actually active and faster with more cool PPD stuff than last year's so I really don't know what the metafag larpers are complaining about. Maho!
>>287910599
>>287910605>Pani Poni Dash is the best thing that Shaft ever madYou were one year to early. The best one is actually Rec, which really made me laugh.
>>287910626Thank you very much, anon!
>>287910710They are also metafags.
I've been watching anime since 2011 and I still haven't watched PPD cause I feel like I have to watch everything it references before I watch the show. There was a huge PPD thread a month or two ago where I asked if someone had made a list for everything it referenced so I could watch that
MAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Where does Becky rank compared to other Shaft heroines?

>>287910769I remember that thread, it was I who said that I should make a flowchart/list of all the anime and manga "necessary" to understand the references in PPD. Working on it. But I think I'll focus only on the visual jokes, chalkboard scribbles are too much...
I love how you can sticky the most harmless thing ever and schizos still get really angry.
AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHGGGG
>>287910873>I am lazy
It's really overstated how much you need to get the references to enjoy PPD. They're mostly relegated to background gags and shit. I'd say Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei is more predicated on you getting the references than PPD is.
>>287910769How about all the 2ch references. What will you read for that?
>>287910491>post-hack was a disasterYea, /a/ was much better when it was dead unironically.
>>287904654My hatred is reserved for normalfags and retards that shouldn't be here or near anime in general. I'm doing absolutely as best I can to try raising spirits while fighting cancer.
>>287910896Well... yeah... That's the most direct way to put it... Mahoho...(also real life stuff)>>287910931ASCII art is pretty understandable as a visual standpoint, think them as smileys <_<
>>287910957What does "doing your best" entail? Bitching on /a/?
>>287910769You have the same exact issue as me. In this case, can anyone help a poor zoomer with a list like that, please?
>>287910873Well I hope some sort of list exists or will exists!>>287910972I'm not gun but yes, bitching about normalfags on /a/ is the only correct way to engage with them. Otherwise they're best to be avoided everywhere else

The only thing was to “Make their thighs thicker” (laughs). When making anime, it won’t go quite the same way as the manga, so I want to reflect things that are consciously drawn into the anime. >Oota: At the very first time I received the original work for perception, the first thing that caught my eye was the thighs. I thought that this isn’t unusual, but rather that Hikawa-san intentionally draws them like that.>Hikawa: Thanks to that, it turned out as a really lewd anime (laughs).>Oota: I’m surprised at myself; I’ve found myself more interested in this kind of art as of late (laughs).From: https://momotsuki.neocities.org/interview/wayofmaking

why couldn't negima become board culture instead?

>>287909675All the board culture gets banned, you faggot
>>287911205I wasn’t sure if this was a fake Ghost Stories parody voice over at first, with the same VAs saying almost exactly the shockingly similar stuff here too.
>>287911328Negima was board culture though.
>>287911225It's funny because Lucky Star is pretty derivative of Pani Poni Dash in the first place and references it.
>>287909847Well yeah, I am also a tourist.
>>287911225Yeah, I owned the DVD release for the series and I remember there being a decent number of special features, including one going over the translation and dubbing process. They really put a lot of effort into their production.

>>287910908Neither is predicated on references, really; you can mostly get the joke anyway.
Check my 6
>>287910605Even more so than SZS?
PPD has a very nice aesthetic and the animation itself just screams FUN.
>>287901428mahohohoo
>>287911175I can confirm.
>>287911470schizos have always been in the popular massive threads, there's actually been less schizos overall since mods instituted a bunch of proxy and IP bans a couple months ago. That's a big part why it seems activity is slower since the start of 2026

>>287911522Not at all. Different story. At least the ?! season.Feel free to read the Negima manga and then watch Ala Alba / Mou Hitotsu tho. They are just manga bonuses in essence.
>>287911700So no, you don't have any proof.
>>287911664Unironically this.
>>287911679I should probably reorder it somewhat, that's an old list of mine - I just added Ninkoro and nothing else. That being said, you are a faggot if you don't want to see Sasami dicking Kagami.

>>287911686If PPD is at the top, then you're better off not watching most of them since the bar is in the molten core of the earth.
>>287911732He's right. Lurk moar. You deserve being farmed and trolled by schizos.
>>287911746Yes, we know you're a faggot, no one cares
>>287911634>all Sasami x Kagami scenesExtremely basedI just watched Sasami for the 1st time recently and really enjoyed it. I liked that it actually had some overarching progress of a loose story over the episodes, while still being completely unpredictable. I would welcome another season. Also Sasami Mama is the best and cutest girl.
>>287911780So you don't have any proof.
this boxset was really well done
>>287911664kek
What is with this boards obsession with board culture and oldfaggotry? You don’t know how many old anons are here and you never will. Who cares? Keep making and discussing stuff you enjoy with people that reciprocate.
>>287911795I really like Akira, though if I have to choose I'd name KKN as my favourite of his.
>>287911764But that makes no sense because from the perspective of that anon PPD is a great show.
>>287911823Good shelf, bonus for the anime Kuma Miko ending
>>287911634As an animeonly, Nisekoi felt "reasonable", with one pretty good episode (the crush on the teacher one).SHAFT/Extra had potential but it should have gotten the ?! treatment and been a Type Moon parody show. They could have brought in Oonuma to draw chibi umus.
I don't think that "sink full of mayo" is a good image to associate with young girls.
>>287911864>equates "so many I simply haven't watched" with "PPD is a great show"Actual subhuman intellect.
>>287911878>SHAFT/Extra had potential but it should have gotten the ?! treatment and been a Type Moon parody show.That would have been great indeed. I never managed to get into the mainline Type Moon despite trying many times.
>>287911703>>287911757Don't think /a/nons really use reddit. Now twitter...
>>287911880A faceful of mayo then
>>287911634I will try to watch every Shaft show. So far I got>Madoka>Monogatari>Zaregoto>Hidamari (missing some episodes)>Nisekoi (dropped pretty quickly)>SZS>Fate>Sangatsu>PPD>Denpa Onna>Dance in the Vampire Bund
>>287911897Are you dumb? I am not talking about the anon has stated that but the anon that has made the list.
But what about the best SHAFT opening?
>>287911934And? That has no bearing on what other anons think of those shows.
>>287911928i also dropped Ninkoro
>>287911918>Don't think /a/nons really use redditWere else can you discuss currently airing anime?

>>287911984It seems like you use reddit like all normalfag ESLtards
>>287911952I can hear each one of them, excluding the last one (is it Nisekoi?)
>>287903296/a/ has allowed full nudity for years now. What, like almost five or ten years? It's supposed to just be anything that was aired on TV, even if the actual nudity is from an uncensored BD or whatever, I think.
>>287912040>dodging the question
>>287911928How the fuck are you missing some Hidamari episodes, did you watch it chronologically or something?
>>287911959The fact that the listanon put PPD on the top and other shows bellow it has no bearing on the actual quality of the shows. From your perspective they might be better than PPD since you have different tastes and appreciate different stuff in animu.

>>287911522I went in blind into shaft's negima and I loved it
/v/ has lost about 30-40k average pph since the new year. /a/'s been reduced by about 5-10k. Even proportionally it's not that bad. I do wish the board was a bit faster but it's fine imo. I think I'll rewatch Pani Poni to celebrate Cinco de Maho. It's been a while
>>287911814I have. /m/fag janny was fired or medicated. Wanschizo threads are now bannable (he still can mass report you). You don't get warning for "calling police" on bikinischizo anymore. owo fag is getting his proxies banned all the time SOLO EZ GG. I don't even warn other anons about schizos anymore. Same anon farms Witch Hat Atelier threads every week for example. And every week it's like the first time because tourists never learn. Schizos are basically gatekeepers and newfag checkers now. /a/ was healed.
>>287911995I will give it another try sooner or later but I don't like wholesome assassin comedies>>287912067cgdct isn't my genre so I had to take a break, I think I got S2 down and I'm missing OVAs

>>287911814It's really not that difficult to search the /g/ archives anon. You can find the threads about them talking about the wide ranging proxy bans
I suddenly want to watch all the Shaft anime I haven’t seen and rewatch the ones the have. The aesthetics are hitting me too perfectly again.
>>287912189Can I just post latina anime girls? idk if they are from mexico or not.

Happy Maho day anons! I finally got around to watching this recently and really enjoyed it. I went into it only really being familiar with the openings and a few of the more well known memes. Even without getting a lot of the references, I feel like the show stands on its own pretty well. Really fun and memorable cast despite its size. Ichijou was my favourite character, during her scenes I could often feel myself smirking before she'd even finished speaking, just imagining what inane shit she was going to come out with.Also this beer tastes exceptionally ok__.

It's pretty fun when you get the hang of the codeThis has been a very informative Cinco de Maho. We learned about the current state of 4chan, but also about the references in the OVA episode. It has been again the blast of the year!As for now, I'll start ripping Pani Poni content on CDs. Alongside Drama CDs, I found this small demo of a PPD fangame on Surugaya, so that's what I'm looking into soon enough. Also I'm bouncing on the idea of making a page for all the in-Shaft references. As in, what Shaft characters appear in other Shaft works and so on. Then there's the reference list/flowchart thingy.We'll see about them sooner or later, this year or next year's Cinco de Maho.Maho!

Speaking of SHAFT-related /a/ traditions, how many years until I can laugh again?

>>287915652/a/ cares
>>287916090You can tell just from the interviews that Shinbo has a deep appreciation for the seiyuu he works with, more so than any other anime director which I think is really cool.
I wish Shin Oonuma would stop churning out factory line shit at Silver Link (though I've heard Princess Orchestration is actually quite good) and come home to SHAFT. Ef is still the most beautfiul SHAFT anime in my opinion.
>>287901482I tried watching it as a kid, but I stopped since I thought I would get into trouble for watching ecchi.
Happy Cinco de Maho!
>>287916391My uncle works at SHAFT and he told me that Shin Oonuma is planning to leave Silver Link and is going to direct Pani Poni Dash season 2 next year.

why did the sticky flop? its the first time a cinco de maho flops
>>287911175Nearly all the actual references to Japanese media/history/pop culture are relegated to those extraneous lists of 'other examples' in every chapter. The main topic of each chapter is either explained in the chapter or is intuitive even without cultural context.t. Currently reading the manga for the first time.

>>287917377kys frogfaggot
>>287904039The thing is, PPD wasn't a standard cute girls gag anime when it came out because it was one of the first instances of its type. It's a hybrid of Di Gi Charat-style weirdo gag Moe and the schoolgirl setup Azumanga Daioh pioneered. A lot of people, SHAFT included, would smooth out the style later, but you're basically watching the template of a "standard cute girls gag anime" being formed in real time as the show goes on.And unlike it's successors, PPD has a flippant disregard on if the jokes land or on making the characters digestible. There's a prickliness to it which makes it refreshing as someone who doesn't really like the style of CGDCT that comes afterward.You have to work for it a little, not just with le eben references but to match its pace.

>>287919331How are you supposed to assess that? People lie about their age and when they began browsing every time those questions get asked. For all you know, everyone posting here is an ojiisan. Even the tripfags that were actual ojiisans left, Verty died last year and he was in his mid-40s.
If you solve 5 captchas you should get 2 hours of no captcha
>>287917844It’s shit, you are coping.

>>287919629No, you’re supposed to like spending time here all day
Did this ever get licensed? Should I find a newer release next time I watch?
>>287901428Not a real holiday, spics get off my board and site.
>>287919647Impossible, normalfags drive me nuts. My normalfag coworkers are tiktok scrolling braindead monkeys, it would be impossible for me to want to hang out with them, id rather kill myself. Everytime they ask to hang out I tell them no so hopefully they eventually realize I don't want to be near normalfag filth beyond working to live.
>>287919487I don't know if I want to have kids with a retard but I would definitely fap to a retard
>>287919671What about times when you're watching anime and reading manga?
>>28791933130+ here, I drop by once or twice a year. I mostly spend my time on /v/ now.Both the medium and its community has gotten too gay and lame to frequently engage with and I find the stealth /a/ threads on /v/ infinitely more enjoyable than this board.Whenever I come here now I feel like I'm interacting with some troonsky zoomer 9 out of 10 times.
>>287919802Nobody here watches anime or reads manga.
>>287919817You must go to shit threads, plenty of threads on /a/ right now that aren't gay crap. Also /v/ is 90% bots and /pol/ engagement bait.
>>287918826I'm not sure if I should grip it and put trucks on it or if I should call it a piece of art and hang it on a wall
We should /a/ draws the opening.
>>287919354more like mootxi.co amirite?
>>287905363Oh damn I've been hoping for this one to be translated for awhile now! Just wondering is there anywhere I can download it all
>>287919331Mid 30's. I lurk more than post. The captchas got pretty bad for awhile but are pretty easy again. I don't find all zoomers repulsive, just the ones addicted to their phones and social media. I'll never understand people posting their face on the internet.
>>287919563neat

>>287919983It's a couple anons attempting to use /v/ style posting to make it normalized on /a/.

>>287920019nuh uh

So when 4chan dies, where will you go anons? Will you become fulltime twitter/reddit/discord users?
>>28791933140+, here forever most of the day most days as it's the least bad place on the Internets. There is a strong correlation between dark theme/4chanx user and garbage posts already. I don't stoop to using terms like >oomer.
>>287901428Gushing over Magical girls was too mid to deserve a sticky
I was skimming through the episodes to find something and it's funny how wherever you go to in a PPD episode there is something visually strange happening that is different from the previous strange thing.
>>287920069Outside.
>>287919888>You must go to shit threads, plenty of threads on /a/ right now that aren't gay crap.maybe>Also /v/ is 90% bots and /pol/ engagement bait.There are plenty of good threads there. Just recently we had the Pragmata threads which were quite nice, even with the occasional shartyfag trying to stir shit. Seeing the Pragmata saga finally receive closure was cool. And honestly, I enjoy the vidya flavoured /pol/ threads as well, every now and then. I would like it if leftoids stopped turning video games into social engineering tools so there would be no grounds for /pol/ speak on /v/ but alas I don't think that's stopping anytime soon. But anime is suffering the same fate as well. Censorship galore. Anime and Japan are just pathetic shadows of their former selves.
>>287901482I have seen this anime like 20 years ago, which is basically the same as not seeing it now in 2026.
>>287920019>nobody is a teacher foreverwhat do you think Rebecca is doing for a living? does she keep in touch with her students?
>>287919817This is pretty accurate. People call /v/ a shithole and it is, but at least it's consistently more fun than /a/.
>>287920136I liked the pragmata threads but I don't agree entirely with the censorship stance on anime, vidya? sure but anime not really, we have multiple shows this season alone that are very lewd

SOMETHING STARTED PLAYING
>>287909808I'm a lone oldfag, I don't get along with anyone who'd make a group that'd exclude my fellow anons. That leaves me an extreme anomaly.
I heard 4chanx users are getting targeted by shartyfags as in they are posting loli or shota and then some script in the embed opens the image to a link which doxx's you or something.
>>287920205That leaves you as a faggot, lmao
>>287920224>schizo babble
>>287920236its true, shartyfags are using that cob site thing to doxx people by putting the link in the filename, this attacks 4chanx users mainly
>>287920253prove it
>>287920205Anon:)
>>287920155I like to imagine she happens to run into them a lot.
>>287920191Let maho fill your mind
how has sharty not been shutdown? they literally IP region locked Pommu from western viewers. I wanted to view Japanese twitter, but those C words had to be all high and mighty by spamming gore and rancid shit.
>>287920314>how has sharty not been shutdown?The same way 4chinks has not been shutdown.
>>287920314Iirc the owner of Kiwifarms is helping them stay up>>287920384Nope, different
>>287914887Oh lawdI gotta watch this shit now. Vince Perri is smiling down below.
>>287920418>>287920384how aren't they in jail?
>>287920155I wish i could read his other manga series so that I could find out if Becky shows up in any of them.
>>287920494Because nothing kiwifarms does is considered illegal and as many of trannies have tried the owner keeps is autistic and finds work arounds to stay up
...
>>287911849Unironically you'll come to understand as you get older and realize how hard it is both for people to maintain traditions and how important those traditions are to continue enjoying what you did before.
>>287920174You should get rid of that. Misery goes wherever that guy goes.
>>287901809I do :^3
>>287919331Monster drinker here, I actually get along with zoomers more often than I do my supposed peers and there's an awkward pause when they reveal they're only in their 20s.
just where did you meet these zoomers and the whole age gap debacle.

>>287920069Shitpost full time in SB, heck maybe even I become in their resident schizo
>>287919817>>287920162>with some troonsky zoomer 9 out of 10 times.I feel like /v/ is even more zoomified than /a/. Literally every other thread has a zoomer buzzword.
>>287917613As far as animanga, I like more sort of heartfelt/endearing stuff like the humor in yotsuba or non non biyori vs the wacky over the top stuff, I guess. But I did think shikanoko was funny, at least most of the time.
Decent thread.
>>287921865thanks luffy, happy birthday btw
Did you read all the translation notes?
>>287921397Gundam G lady>>287919817>Both the medium and its community has gotten too gay and lame>implying that's not true for /v/I see people on /v/ complaining all the time about the community and the medium in general. It does make more oc than /a/ though.
>>28791933133. Been using this site for 20 years. I work in the media business and now I'm making content for people in their 20s who were in literal diapers when I discovered this board during the Lucky Star/TTGL war
maho maho maho maho maho maho....
>>287921810This. I use /v/ all the time and it's just >peak slop kino ad infinitum.
>>287901428Maho ho ho ho
>>287921926I stopped reading them halfway through because there were so many and I thought "what am I really getting out of reading these joke explanations? It's not like I'm going to laugh after reading them".
>>287919675There's the BD/DVD release with ADV's translation. Not only the translation explaining (nearly) everything, BD/DVD has even more jokes and references than the TV release (because it's Shaft and they fixed a lot from the initial broadcast)
>>287915655
>>287920155There's that Hikawa doujin with a 10 year timeskip, where she meets her students
>>287922040Since the OP incorporates the credits a lot they ended up redoing a lot of it for the BD/DVD creditless version:https://note.com/animmony/n/n1dfe150ef7d4
>>287922131Neat page, thanks!Gotta love they inserted references here as well
>>287922035I read them and said>heh that's funny after each one of them
>>287903219>>287907717>>287910033sex with Igarashi
>>287904106Nothing that's wrong with /a/ is alleviated by there being slower posting.
>>287922083>doujinNon-canon garbage.
>>287922428In a general sense true but if you look at specific threads is good. For example I've seen slow Mushishi threads, where most of the posts were actually interesting and provided good discussion for the anime/manga, hitting the bump limit . 5 years ago the thread would have died in 1-2 hours
UNSTICKIED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>287904106There's more to nolife than increasing its speed.
>>287919817The offtopic threads on /v/ are pretty fun, I agree with that but everything complain you have about /a/ is something that applies to /v/ as well. >zoomershit>gay medium>retarded community that is more interested in getting the last word than having a proper discussionNot to mention that it's pretty hard to make threads for older games.
>>287922608IT'S THE BEGINNING OF THE END!!!
I am no longer posting in a sticky...
I still have an hour and a half of hard drinking to do anons.
Can we just make another PPD thread? This was fun :>
>>287922686Now it's just slippery, like Becky
>>287922217You can often find some neat stuff by going to Note.com and searching for things that you like in Japanese.
>>287922756why is becky slippery?
>>287922743The urge to make a general-lite is created by the dark side, anon.
>>287922686I regert to inform you...
>>287922810Yeah you are right. I'll miss you.
>>287919817the fastest moving thread on /v/ is an ai pokemon thread
>>287922808She lost at videogames against me
>>287922431Doujinshi created by the original creator is canon.
>>287922910No it isn't.
>>287922915Yes it is. The release method doesn't have anything to do with whether it is canon or not..
>>287922941>The release method doesn't have anything to do with whether it is canon or not..It has everything to do with canonicity, anon. Nothing is a one person work.
>>287922648>Not to mention that it's pretty hard to make threads for older games.Isn't that what /vr/ is for? I know it's pretty dead but it seems to have much better discussion than /v/
>>287919700On the other hand, eventually you will watch Precure with your daughters.
>>287922982Yeah, /vr/ is nice
>>287920052I think he made a new end card for a re-air too, again with Lord Humungus, but I am too lazy to find it.
>>287922059There was a shot with Mesousa too, iirc
>>287922961So are you saying that the doujinshi is non-canon because it didn't go through an editor like the magazine version? Does that also mean that if the manga changes editor it doesn't count as canon anymore? Does it need to have the exact same people working on every chapter for it to be considered canon?
>>287901670Cute Misaka .
>>287914657I mostly agree with your s tier.
Unrelated to maho, but does anyone else remember an old meme of a cartoon of a small spaz child with huge braces and an "anime expert" t-shirt that turned into an exploitable so you'd have like a "naruto expert" with the headband? Anyone save these? I feel like a crazy person googling anime expert and not seeing it.
fug I almost forgot about cinco de maho
>>287923183>not checking 4stats everyday to see if anything on any board is stickied
>>287923144If the creator can't find a way to publish through official channels, then yes, it's a non-canon work.
>>287923183You basically did. It's over. Pack your bags and go home.
This year's Cinco de Maho was as active as 2024 and that year's thread had a lot of sharty spam. I think /a/'s death has been slightly overstated
I want to kiss Himeko.Maho!
>>287914657You really should watch Denpa Onna. Peak eroticism.
>>287914657Watch rec as well, it's funny
>>287923269I still want to do a marathon of every Rec episode together with its titular Audrey movie.
>>287922791You're right, here's a page of all the references seen in Natsu no Arashi episode 9 (there's a lot):https://lanove.hatenadiary.org/entry/20090603/p1

>>287923291Oh hey, they have the Mesousa snapshot. Nice.Also>手前に乗っているのは「ほこりちゃん」。「ちゅるやさん」の人の描いているキャラ。Mind fucking blown, finally I know what that ball is.
thread going so fast no one will notice I only watch anime during group watches
>>287923291>>287923672EVEN THIS GUY DOESN'T KNOW WHETHER THAT EPISODE REALLY HAS KEY-KUN IN ITI am in despair
>>287923704That's like saying that you only have sex during gangbangs. Fucking gay
MAHHHHOOOOOOO
>>287902633I'll celebrate it till the day I die. All hail himeko
Happy (former) Cinco de Maho, /a/. Hopefully we'll all be around for the next one.
Have a good one anons. It's been fun.
See you next year! Maho!
Maho maho!
>>287923704I am the opposite, I only enjoy watching anime by myself in solitude.
>>287923219/a/ benefits greatly from the internet at large going to shit at much faster rates than /a/ itself. Where else are you going to go to talk about anime? Reddit? Xitter? The comment section of some soon-to-be-a-troon anituber? Discord is supposed to have sucked up a large share of anons, but from what I've seen you either get servers that are overmoderated to shit just like subreddits, or some tiny gathering of friends forming their own custom made echo chamber at best. Might as well stay here and enjoy the twilight days while they last.
