>>286260004Naruto is a gateway anime of the worst kind. It's a bad series, a clusterfuck of story and characterization that isn't very well done by any aspect, but which attempts to compensate for its weaknesses by adding in excessive shipping faggotry and DARKNESS. The normal anon can see this as the shit it is, and may enjoy it, hate it or be indifferent to it, but all the while recognizing that the series itself, regardless of their opinion, is plain bad. However, these very aspects that try to smear over the shit of its core make it a breeding ground for aspie, unsociable underageb& faggots who engage in every kind of faggotry both online and in the real world. The superpowered characters all trying their hardest to look cool, the jutsus, peculiar, colorful clothes, the whole ninja faggotry and everything about the Naruto world fuels their escapist fantasies, while the pity-party character backgrounds, emphasis on revenge, and overall preachiness of the series make it fit just right with the mary-sueish drives of your average preteen and his sense of unwarranted self-importance towards the world. Exactly the kind of shit that makes little kiddies and underageb& retards eat this shit right the fuck up. Naruto is basically THE series to attract the most hated anime fanbase known to /a/, which is why, regardless of individual opinions, it is the responsibility of every anon to troll the fuck out of this show and everyone who likes it, and ensure that no Naruto threads ever encourage the newfriends to show their faces here
>>286259867But it's 2026

This board was filled with spammers and tripfags back in 2007, threads trying to relive it somehow forget this
You know, Manhwa is kind of neat. Surely they will continue to improve and not fucking it up
>>286260339Underage get ou... wait... oh... OH NO
>>286269141It's really weird how rare tripfags are nowadays. You'd think there'd be more, but there's only like 3 or 5 of them now compared to the hundreds we had back then
>>286270000Different newfag culture; people aren't coming from BBSs anymore. Also, I doubt most people even know how to work the name or options fields anymore. When was the last time you used nonoko? We don't even have an email field anymore.
>>286259867 KAGOMEEEE!!!!!
>>286269300>>286270000>>286270400digits
I want to be a little girls and sleep with anons who turned to lolis too
>>286270400There were still a lot of namefags in the first half of 2010's. They became rare after gg and the a/pol/calyspe of 2014-2016.
>>286270000There’s Magister and a few new ones that will give up after a couple months. It’s funny and sad at the same time.
/a/ has so few anons that were actually here in 2007 that they can’t even keep the thread alive
I've got a good feeling about Gainax's latest mecha show that starts this Spring. Kamina seems like a hotblooded character, but we'll have to see if this Simon kid becomes cool or is whiny baggage.
>>286268603>2009LMFAO, you will never be Mikuru
>>286273768we're just emulating the 2007 post rate

Anyone watching picrel? Seems like a cute, feel-good type of romance show. pretty generic and predictable so far, though. Not really expecting any twists in this one.
Oh fuck I'm 14 again. The only manga I'm reading are in WSJ. I have yet to become based.
You know what? I think the cowboy bebop dub is pretty good...are you guys gonna watch the episode tonite?
>>286270400Not sure why boomers act like the name or options field is esoteric knowledge, the site itself tells people how to use both in the rules page. Noko isn’t needed anymore and the options field is only for sage or any events now.
>2007My shit was taste and I used to watch garbage in parts on youtube. I would rather not pretend.
Thank God Gainax is saving anime from the moetard menace by making manime like Gurren Lagann. Lucky Shit teatime hour is for little girls and queers.
BARKER THAN DLACK IS AOTY
Wtf?, why did they do an anime original ending for claymore? What the fuck were they thinking /a/nons?
MAYONEGG
Seeing as how Naruto shippuden started airing in 2007, /a/ was essentially unusable for like half a year. They were back then how /dbs/ threads are now kek.
Well?
>>286278607Gainax is gonna live forever meanwhile Kyoani will burn to the ground in ten years
>>286261218God I haven't seen this in years. Also dat filename.

>>286278813Didnt know that, thanks.
>>286277362We went from pretending to be other websites to pretending things were the way they were 20 years ago.
>>286279619That's because 2026 4chan has less in common with 2006 4chan than it does with 2026 reddit
>>2862796292026 internet as a whole doesn't resemble what it used to be in 2006 Everything changed for the worse
>>286279629This place is just an alternative for people that use Twitter and Reddit now, it probably has very few anons that exclusively use 4chan despite what the vocal minority claims (they don’t speak for everyone)
>>286279629Well that's because more anons present today post on reddit as opposed to the number of 2007 oldfags.
>>286279668The only good things to happen between 2006 and 2026 are that I got laid and I watched Princess Tutu twice.
>>286279688I'm proud of you, Princess Tutu is indeed one of the best
>>286279688Ok but who asked
>>286279718Asuka wonnedAsuka best girl
I seriously doubt anyone that used this site or board in 2007 is still here. Oldfags had the good sense to leave, and while everyone asks “where did they go”, hoping that there’s some alternative utopia, they just got off 4chan or the internet. The nostalgic ones come here for r/a/dio threads because it’s the only time this place even somewhat resembles the /a/ they’re familiar with but most of them just don’t give a shit about this place. No, they didn’t go to some other imageboard for the same purpose, they either stopped watching anime and reading manga or they talk about it with their friends. This hobby is mainstream in the west these days and wondering why /a/ is unlike how it was before can be answered by remembering that.

>>286266914>>286267458>Please let us return to ANY moderation periodI second this notion.
omg whats with this girl she wants to bang her teacher wtf
>>286259867We need more threads like this dedicated to specific shows like they're currently airing.
>>286279900I can regretfully confirm that some people really have been in this shithole for 20 years. I didn't use the site frequently until 2009/10 but I never stopped.
>>286279900I recently met a guy in real life who used 4chan back in 2006. He's married and has a job now, and the only way I figured out he used /a/ is that he immediately knew what Kiniro Mosaic was and also recognized Gal-O Sengen. Oldfags are all just normalfags now
I love Naruto
>>286279900the real answer is this:2007 4chan was mixed with the uwu gaigaonline tumblr blog types, as well as the lolicon otaku and sperg types..the originals (myself included) either branched off to become r*dditor troons, formed small niche communities with actual friends they made and grew up, or an herod.those still left like myself don't have the time, or inclination to be as active and post 24/7 and watch 20 anime per season.now its the newgen taking over, they have the time and drive.40+ anons who didn't troon out had two options: grow up or accept a miserable subsistence working at wal-mart and shitposting about stupid japanese cartoons untill death.i'm still an otaku, but i dont care about the retarded bullshit anymore and people stopped doing things 4thelulz.the internet culture changed with the mass normie invasion so i just hide away in my little niche places and shitpost one or two things i'm doing in between being a half normie now, becaue the alternative was death.why should i even bump this thread? theres maybe two people who will even read my comment and understand what i mean. eternal summer arrived in 2016
