Are there a lot of "old noobs" here? I mean people who were around for the VHS era, but haven't even seen 200 full TV anime lol. And don't even read VNS, or manga to compensate lol
>sample>”noobs”>”lol”Just outed yourself, newfag.
>>282046256oh please, I was on /b/ when goatse and unholy trinity were spammed like tomorrow. Back in 2006. Do you even know what GAR is?
>>282046256Using lol was in style before you had your 1st smartphone.>>282046014Probably not many who would admit to it.I am one of them.To be fair, I feel most of any kind of Media, and people, are trash and do not Garner my interest.
How is that even possible? It's one thing if you only watch anime and for some reason never got into manga, but if you're entirely focused on anime and say that you like it, how would you not even have seen 200 anime? Also I noticed you specified 200 TV anime. That might throw a wrench into things considering how much /a/ fawns over OVAs and movies. I can imagine some people on /a/ that watch 75% OVAs not having seen too many actual TV anime.
>>282046014The word you're looking for is "casual"
>>282046877They watched some shows on VHS, got a false impression of what anime actually was. They hate idols, fanservice and moe and only like manime. The ONLY good anime of the past few years? Frieren. Those people exist.
I've been watching anime since the mid 90s and browsing 4chan since 2008, truth is that I'm getting tired of anime already, for the most part the 2010s and 2020s have been terrible, I don't know what kind of drugs are the higher ups of the industry on but making adaptations of every shitty narou Isekai ever is the worst thing that has happened to anime, that and casual fanservice and lolis being more rare than an unicorn nowadays.
>>282046014Hi nicole lol
I was watching shit like gundam nge and cowboybebop in the early 2000s with dvds n shit everyday thanks to adv jack and i would watch that shit for days
>>282047907Anime has really gone south after 2009 imo
>>282050601Dubbed? If you want a pissing contest with me, I was watching Brave mecha in the 90s and even owned toys for them.
i barely watch anime but read a ton of manga
>>282046014Me, I stopped watching in 2000s and now jumped in watching shit from 2020-2025. Found out anime only got worse with time but there are some gems in there.
>>282046317Memorizing encyclopedia dramatica terms is a telltale sign of the average newfag>Source: me back in 2013
>>282047558Frieren's first 4 episodes are magical, anon No pun intended desu
>>282050644My older brother jack knew japanese, he was born around 1977. Thanks to him he showed me 80s anime like gunbuster and robocop when I was little. Then when i was ten he actually went to japan and was able to get the opening of daikon iv and kept on bragging about his generation being the best. He would explain why but he showed me akira and I realized the 80s were a different time especially for otaku watchers
>>282050720Robotcarnival wow lmao
>>282046256I'm really old and 'noobs' and 'lol' are literally old as fuck(especially lol...that is the ultimate OG 90s internet slang/acronym). And if anything a signal that he's more likely to be telling the truth. Then there was newbs -> noobs(or n00bs lol)
