Do you guys even like anime?
>>282081777/a/ doesn't like anime/a/ does like masturbating to cute girl slop though
>>282081777Of course not. I've been here for 11 years pretending to like anime and manga, but the honest truth is that I know absolutely nothing about the medium. I don't even know what "Eebangehlayon" is, but it sounds boring and the girl in your picture looks like she would be the worst girl of her show.
>>282081777Unironically not. I haven't watched anime/read manga in 2 years. I don't know why I still visit /a/
>>282083228Because you're here forever.
>>282081777I used to like it. Close enough.
>>282082019I wish more /a/ posters were like you
>>282083503Thanks for your kind words anon. Please have a wonderful day.
Who is this Annie May? Is she okay?
>>282081777lol no. I like Asuka lots though.
>>282082019DO I LOOK LIKE I KNOW WHAT AN AY-VAN-JELLY-ON ISI JUST WANT A PICTURE OF A GOD DANG BUTTJOB
>>282083624I think it's a character from this Chinese cartoon called "Pohkeyman" or something like that, but I'm not sure.
>>282083797Kek'd.
>>282081777I do! As a matter of fact I'm watching less anime than I'd like to ever since graduating from being a hikkiNEET. Work life is drab and depressing, but Japanese cartoons are fun and one of the few rays of sunshine to brighten my mood during any given week! I probabIy appreciate anime more than I used to, now that I know the toil of the bottom rung salarymen to whom they were made to appeal in the first place.
>>282081777No, manga is better.
>>282084010So basically, you're telling me that if I want to appreciate anime again, I need to get a job first. Sounds painful.
To the point where it is breaking my brain at how popular it is. I wasn't able to watch as much anime in the old days as I'd like. My parents disapproval and not having a computer in 2007-mid 2009 made me unable to watch fansubbed stuff. I was here for Haruhi though in 2006. Then in 2012 my mental illness hit full stride.Now i'm so insecure about anime. My mental state is much better. My shitty grandmother on my dads side who abused my mom died and I was able to get an inheritance from her insuring I'd never have to work again. That got rid of 70 percent of my mental problems. Now I watch 10-11 episodes a day and study Japanese. But I hate how popular anime is today. I wish i were a better fan in the 2000s.
>>282081777I don't like watching anime anymore. I'll go back and rewatch some of the older stuff but rarely go out of my way to watch something new. A lot of stuff that airs doesn't make me feel like i'm the target demographic anymore. Too many flashing lights, censorship, localization, weird trends, shorter series etc. I know anime is primarily an ad for the source material, but a lot of adaptations are so far from the original experience that I stopped bothering with anime entirely and just go straight to the source material, and don't bother with all of the external bullshit. I still read manga, vn's and doujinshi daily.
>>282084116I always thought a job at a library might be peaceful.
>>282084116No, don't get a job unless you have to. Work sucks and you're just cattle for the rich and powerful. If I could sustain NEETdom, I'd go back to it in a heartbeat. I don't feel invested in this society at all and try to reduce work hours as much as I can get away with. You don't need a job, only a positive attitude! Enjoy the fact that you don't have to work while so many others do. Maybe use your free time for some other hobbies to prevent oversaturation. I think that's probably sufficient.

>>282081777Since you act like /a/ is a hivemind, and you're posting on /a/, that means you're part of the hivemind and already know the answer.
>>282081777What's an anime?
I expected better of you, anime
>>282083818not to be confused with Haruka from Pokemon
>>282084168Man I wish I could get a job at my local library. Sounds peaceful indeed.>>282084254Maybe, just maybe, I'll have to get a job this year. Mostly for my mental health. After so many years of neetdom my brain is starting to react negatively to that. I feel more and more useless every year and I need to fix that before my brain convinces me to commit sudoku. Apologies for blogposting.
>>282084433Wouldn't mind watching Haruka from Sailor Moon teach her the ropes.
>>282084433Not to be confused with Sapphire, from Pokémon.
>>282084577Saphiya!
>>282084338Something you don't watch because you're too busy samefagging for hours, cuck posting, seething and getting made fun of on Kiwifarms.
>>282084168>>282084475My ideal job of "garden hermit" has sadly been retired
