Binchou-tan will change your outlook on life and give you new meaning.I've never watched anything so sweet and pure before.The manga made me cry.
>>286821789Nice try, charcoal industry of Japan!
bin bin bin
>>286821789Based and cute.
>>286821789i kid you not, i was looking for something else and this popped up a few minutes agowhat a coincidence to have a thread a upit's like it's telling me to watch it
>>286824604You were destined to.
>>286824604To be fair, I think it's mildly trending on tiktok or something. I only learned about it recently as well. Now I'm trying to get anyone who will listen to watch it.
>>286824604DO IT
>The manga made me cry.me too, me too
>>286828086For me, it was when Grandma starts "reading the letter" Binchou wrote to her
>>286828086>>286828122
>all these anons being emotionally devastatedMaybe I won't watch it then...
>>286828122not sure why image was deleted
>>286829726Don't worry, the anime director had your back because as far as I remember the anime has a much happier vibe than the manga. They are both their own experience.>>286828122It's been too long since I've last read it to remember which scenes hit me hardest.I liked it so much though that I imported the raws and some coal for drinking water. So the advertisement worked on me
>>286829953It was too sad
>>286821789That face is staring into my soul
>>286829726
>>286829726It will heal you.
>>286821789It's so cute, I might give it a watch.
>>286821789I'll bump for anons then.
>>286824719Is that a good or a bad thing?
>>286821789CUTE
>>286839661Probably bad.
>>286840947I choose to believe Binchou-tan will cleanse their souls.
>>286838531Arigato!
>>286821789Those are big eyes
>>286845743That's how we made anime back in the day, kiddo
>>286849448Wow
>>286839661>>286840947Don't let tiktok scare you away from this gem
>>286829726That should make you watch it
>>286854122The world is sad enough already. I'm here for the escapism.
>Ooh a Binchou-tan thread!>Suddenly remembering the part where she pretends to be her deceased Grandma in order to welcome herself homeI can't do it man. It's been 20 years, 20 YEARS.And it still gets me.Still was one of my all-time favorite EDs though:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PBwo7STN_no
I thought about dumping maybe a chapter or two of the manga but I only have (pretty lowres) raws downloaded and it doesn't look like there's a translated torrent on nyaa
>>286854319Cute miyarorikon
>>286858084The one thing I don't understand is who the hell is Ubamega? What is his relationship to Binchou? i dont think its ever explainedComes across as biological dad doing bare minimum child support
>>286859434WTF These are so sad..
>>286860013Track down the anime. OH BOY!
>>286860909
>>286855987The struggle is real.
>>286860909These pages are some of the cutest things I have seen in my life.
I can't finish this anime, I don't have the strengthAll the liveleak and /z/ posting didn't hit me as hard
>>286867873>I can't finish this anime, I don't have the strengthDon't believe in yourself. Believe in the Binchou-tan that believes in you!
>>286863394 Just wait until you hit the part where she lines up the little shoes at the door and says "I'm home" to an empty house like it's routine.You think you're bracing for comfy iyashikei fluff and then it gut-punches you with generational loneliness at 240p.>The struggle is real.Yeah, because half the struggle is finding a decent rip and the other half is emotionally surviving it. Oldheads weren’t gatekeeping this show, we were issuing a warning.

>>286876482Thank you.
cute
>>286874312The hole in the blanket always gets me. I wish the series was longer. I don't remember this chapter in the anime.
>>286883630Anons keep saying the anime is sadder than the manga but the manga is way sadder. The whole dog chapter is very abridged in the anime.
>>286883750I've always gotten more emotion out of anime for more reasons. Also I don't read much manga but this one in particular. It was a good soul cleanse for sure.
>>286883750I don't think you could get away with a series like Binchou-tan in the Reiwa Era. The level of melancholy it presents was doable in the early 00s when there was still the hope and optimism of turn the millennium within the audience to fall back upon. We live in a dimmer and darker age now, so this level of struggle isn't as easy to receive even in an incredibly moe package (which is part of why cheat/slow-life isekai are so popular imo as a form of escapism IMO). Anyway Binchou-tan's use of bird and duck taxis is a ridiculously cute image.
>>286884845I think you make a good observation with the isekai. That kind of on the nose escapism would've been considered embarrassingly indulgent in the 00s.
She sure eats a lot of rice
>>286824719>>286839661it's kind of an unavoidable thing, it's the primary way young people communicate and share information
>>286888821>She sure eats a lot of ricehttps://www.japanvillage.jp/diary-detail/664>In Japanese cuisine, Binchotan is often used to improve the quality of cooked rice. Adding a piece of Binchotan to the rice cooker or pot during the cooking process helps to purify the water and release minerals, resulting in fluffier and more flavorful rice. The Binchotan also helps to balance the pH levels of the water, contributing to better texture and taste.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b5nO1VZXOqQAlso she's too poor to afford to eat much else.
>>286883750The manga gets a good ending though
>>286829726Same
>>286893809This Binchoutan is deceased
>>286888009>>286893809haha, that's our Binchou-tan!
>>286874312Look how cute her sleeping smile is
>>286821895We'll get you one day. Just you wait.
>>286890820Naruhodo.
>>286888821rice is lifeno rice, no life
>>286903673Look at all that rice!
>>286890820
>>286903673Protip: Don't eat the Binchotan in your rice. Also don't put Binchotan(female) in your rice either.
>>286821789I watched this series a few months ago, surprised to see it actually talked about in this day and age. Very very cute series, I want her to have a happy life.
>>286906910>I want her to have a happy life
>>286890820>resulting in fluffier and more flavorful riceIs it good? I have the urge to try it but I suspect it will be disappointing.
>>286906910The end destroyed me. I lack faith in humanity but sometimes its the only reason to keep going. Its exhausting.
>>286903673How does it taste?
>>286911037Like rice.
>>286912901There's no Binchou-tan flavor?
>>286893809She died
What bugs me is that she's friends with local ojou-sama Kunugi-tan who's barely larger than a stag beetle but lives in a giant fancy mansion. It wouldn't have hurt to let be a live-in made there. At least she wouldn't have to worry about being woken up during rainstorms by leaks in the roof or dying in a ceiling collapse when a strong gust of wind blows in.
>>286915794It's made clear in the anime and manga that Binchou lives in the old run down house because she wants to. There are people willing to adopt her but she still wants to live in the mountains where she lived with Grandma.It is more touching that way instead of a basic sob story.
>>286915794She's too humble and would never accept that
>>286915939>she still wants to live in the mountains where she lived with GrandmaThat makes sense.
>>286897310 That lil’ charcoal nugget can’t catch a break and still wakes up like she’s grateful to be alive. Absolute saint-tier imouto. Protect that soot-stained smile at all costs.
>>286821789Posting again but I will watch this thanks OP!
Good thread
>>286914928Nyoooooo
>>286921830Sometimes /a/ is alright
Using binchou-tan to set shit on fire.
>>286926246Evil renegade Binchou-tan.
>>286926246Only if you mean setting a pile of leaves on fire to cook sweet potato.
>>286926842That always look so delicious but I've never had it so I can't tell.
>>286928387Just know that the sweet potato you see in anime/manga prepared like that is Superior Japanese Sweet Potato (Satsumaimo) different from the ones you normally get at the grocery store in the West:https://web-japan.org/kidsweb/archives/news/04-02/yakiimo.htmlhttps://www.chowhound.com/1654021/american-vs-japanese-sweet-potatoes-difference/ >One big difference in Japanese sweet potatoes is the texture; American sweet potatoes have a 77% moisture content, making them pretty wet, while Japanese ones are drier, with a moisture content around 70%. In practical terms, this results in the Japanese variety having a much fluffier texture, closer to that of a regular potato, than "regular" sweet potatoes, which have a texture similar to a pumpkin. Japanese sweet potatoes are also very dense inside, so the cooking process may take a bit more time. Unlike other sweet potatoes, though, they aren't likely to get soggy or overly wet during the cooking process. The flavor of Japanese sweet potatoes is a sweet one (hence the name), often said to be sweeter than a regular orange sweet potato. At the same time, some describe the taste as being nutty, close to that of a chestnut; in Japan, these sweet potatoes are even touted as a special fall flavor
>>286929000
>>286929000>can't find satsumaimo anywhere around hereLooks like this calls for an adventure to Japan to find the finest, bestest satsumaimo there is in order to plant them back home and become the sweet potato king with his superior nipponese potatoes.
I like to bake my inferior American sweet potato after brining over night and make sure they get a nice crispy skin then eat them with a little more salt sprinkled on the inner fluff as I eat them.
>>286929193This but unironically.
More people should watch this
>>286905565It's everywhere
>>286821789Very cute
I want this thread to go on.
>>286821789>Binchou-tan will change your outlook on lifeSounds like a kings of leon song.
>>286937477They're doing the OP for the next season.
>>286821789I think Binchou-tan should change her own life instead of mine...
>>286936427same
>>286878264That's adorable.
Remember to listen to the audio CDs! I think someone translated them recently.
Any other cute animes like this that make you cry happy/sad tears?
>>286929000Interesting and checked.
>>286946162>Remember to listen to the audio CDs! I think someone translated them recently.Really? Source?
>>286821789We will never get such cuteness again in the current era.
>>286939556>Binchou-tan OP starts with twangy southern rock riff >slow pan over countryside shack >lyrics about lighting a fire “deep in my soouuul” ngl I’d watch the shit out of that. Just Binchou-tan quietly roasting satsumaimo while some bearded dude wails about heartbreak in the background. Modern masterpiece.

>>286946435>My Roommate Is a Cat aka Dōkyonin wa Hiza, Tokidoki, Atama no Ue "My Housemate Is on My Lap, But Sometimes, on My Head"On the surface it's mostly a cute series about an man introverted young writer who finds a stray kitten and takes her in, but from her POV he needs help so she "raises" him. Getting into the backstory of her past with some of the flashbacks about broke me.
So does Aloe-tan just need hosing down every hour or so?>>286982172Alright you win, I will watch it.
>>286821789I remember seeing a PV at the end of an episode of Rozen Maiden back then.Also, that's a very short kimono.
what's it about?
>>286952695made for AMV
>>286821789I watched this years ago back in my depression days. It's one of the best healing anime beside Aria imo. I still listen to Binchotan's OST when commuting to work even till this day.
>>286976364I hope anons notice this.
>>286987799Providence, struggle, melancholy and ultimately being content with all of it.
Binchou-tan has a good ending in the manga so anons don't have to be sad you know
>>286989997the human condition
>>286991816You wouldn't expect Binchou-tan to have such gravitas.
>>286982172https://youtube.com/watch?v=c8cW1ZUoTLI
>>286962669Arigatou
Have any of you ever made charcoal? Do you know what makes binchoutan special?
alright, you guys convinced me, I'll watch it.
>>286988320Same. I put it on thinking it’d just be another moe blob iyashikei and then it just quietly kneecapped me. There’s something about how understated it is - no big melodrama, just this tiny charcoal girl doing her best and finding little bits of warmth wherever she can.The OST is insanely good for that too. It’s so simple and soft but it sticks with you. That lonely winter morning vibe hits different when you’re commuting half-asleep, watching salarymen shuffle around. Makes you feel weirdly okay about everything.Binchou-tan really is up there with Aria in that “gentle but devastating” tier. It doesn’t fix you, it just sits with you for a while.
>>286997048The Binchou cult grows.
>>286996724No, arigatou you. I will watch her show soon.
>>286988320>>286997732I'm convinced, downloading it now. The OST too. I'm guessing like Aria it's one of those series you'll appreciate more if you don't just binge your way through it.
you have regular charcoalor black charcoal, it's pyrolysed wood/biomass.Basicaly you cook it and off all the expelled syngasses with the heat but do this within an oxygen free environment to avoid burning up the mass.For Binchoutan or white charcoal. they traditionally used a very dense type of oak managed through rotational coppice but nowadays are more varied. The more important part is after the charcoal is made they open up the air vents and get it glowing brightly at a high temperature which makes the charcoal like a pottery kiln and vitrifies the charcoal into a much harder more inert state. you can literally make windchimes out of it because they ring, or even a sortof xylophoneby doing this they make the white charcoal burn much more consistently than black charcoal making it produce a slightly lower but much more stable consistent heat better suited to cooking. typically the unburned binchoutan is put into a snuffing pot that excludes air and allows it to be reused
God, won't someone at least give this poor mountain girl a pair of shoes! Ubamega-san you stingy miser!

Last one being one of favourites of this "moe genre". Might read them again.Found a scanlation of printed Afghanis-tan and Pakis-tan manga volumes just now:https://sites.google.com/view/afuganisutanandpakisutanmangas/home

>>287011113Oh wow, I never about that last one. Thanks.
Just watched the first two episodes. Holy shit, Binchou-tan is so cute and pure. Didn't even realize I was smiling the whole time and tried to hug the monitor whenever she fell or made some mistake.I want to hug her, hold her and protect her from everything bad in the world.
>>287011113>Afghanis-tanlol
>>287011113>>287013080These posts reminded that this exists:>Nyotai-ka! Sekai no Dokusaisha Retsuden (Transformed Into Females!! Biographies of World Dictators)Here's Zedong Mao-tan.

>>287016854>144p divided in partsDamn, that's some OG shit. I miss those days but I also really, really don't miss those days.
binchoubump!!
>>287016713Then what are you doing on /a/ clicking raw scans, you masochist.Half the fun is squinting at the moonrunes and pretending you understand through context and vibes alone. Just look at Binchou-tan’s little :3 face and you’ll get 90% of the plot anyway.Worst case, wait two years for some saint to dump a half-finished scanlation and argue about translation notes. That’s the true anime experience.
>>287021734It's the best I've got until a TL hero saves us.
>>286821789I remember watching it, but I don't remember any of the content.>>286824719Prepare for anything moe to go trending in the following months/years. Whenever something is resurrected from nostalgia, it's about to lost all its soul.

>>286870949Hello, botfren
Eat your Binchou
>>287085913Eating carbon?! I don't think I can trust the Science™ anymore
>>287085913She's good for health, good for rice, good for water purification.Binchou-tan is very versatile.
>>287085913Despite how sweet she looks, I doubt she would taste very good.
>>286929000>white fleshSeems yellow to me
>>287086222they feed purified charcoal powder to people who swallowed poison in the intermediate stages of treatment
>>287085913Binchou-tan in my shitter canonically...
>>287085913I want to power Binchou-tan up like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qYkicwSeXw0
>>287089213Purified charcoal?
>>286821789Do binchoutan filters actually do anything?
>>287094682Yes, they absorb contaminants in the water aswell as release various minerals.
>>287094682They also give hope during dark times.
>>287098257Binchou is very hardworking
>>287085913>>287098257It's kinda gruesome to depict a little girl being used like that.
>>287102244>cleaning with charcoal
Remember to leave your orphaned poor little mountain girl in the fridge to absorb smells and keep your perishables fresh.
>>287104209based natto appreciators
>>287105941impressive
>>287105941The broom is taller than she is, heck the bristles nearly come up to her neck.
>>287105941i kneel
>>287105941Binchou-tan, Binchou-tan, does whatever a Binchou can.
>>287108019Is it an itty bitty binchou or a very massive mallard?
>>286821789I remember watching this as a teenager because my older brother got me a bunch of burned anime DVD's from his trip to baliVery cute, kind of melancholy, too.
>>287108019>>287108292Her size seems to change often.
>>287109331The ducks and birds are large, in the manga it tells us to imagine binchou-tan being small and cooking in rice and deodorizing things but she is probably just using the charcoal to do those things. If you wanna think she can change size I think that's that's cute I'm not gonna stop you.
>>286821789forced moe
>forced bait above
I plan to watch her show today....
>>286821789Can you find binchotan available online locally?So, I'll add it on rice?
>>287111403>I plan to watch her show today....Make sure you grab a box of tissues.>>287111900Probably not locally unless you live in a big city (maybe check your local asian grocercy store). Otherwise you can get it on Amazon:https://www.amazon.com/JapanBargain-Binchotan-Charcoals-Filtration-Deodorize/dp/B00131T8BC
>>287109556Forced shit post.
>>287112001>>287112021ITT: charcoal industry shills
>>287112001>Make sure you grab a box of tissues.Thank you for the head's up!
I thought I missed a Mikuni Shimokawa album. Turns out, it's just CooRie.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l5wxeSuF0gk
Couple years ago I got really into japanese charcoal making approx 2023.This was the best video sequence I found on the processhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=adeSfjXS-Hchttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xm5r2t5JbKghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fKhT4C0F1vghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ngpNbOC0bCIhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fM7i_Oa2ZS0https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DopSp5ofyi0I had to use before:2023-01-01 to find this again because youtube has gotten pretty bad for searching.
>>287112367Interesting you wouldn't think just taking wood and burning it to make charcoal could be such an exacting and involved process. The end products in the final video sound (and look) like lead pipes when moved around, not charcoal.
>>287112367extremely cool videos, thanks for sharing it
a thread this fun shouldn't die so soon.
>Binchou-tan lives on (barely enough) rice and whatever she can forage in the mountains to eke out subsistence each day>Brats thoughtlessly pour half their bowls of delicious soup out at lunch every day which they don't even cook themselves despite being her ageNot only does this show make me sad in moments, it feels me when profound indignant rage at times too.Iyashikei in the early 00s did not mess around.
>>287112367I don't understand how they kept such a large opening on the furnace for so long without burning everything to ashes. I thought the trick was to keep he fire fully enclosed.
Finally starting it. It's very cute so far.
I hope her friends manage to fully fix her house. It's very cozy.
i always wanted to give this a try. but before anything.i have to know. is there a happy ending? in the anime and/or manga? a true happy ending not just "and she continued to live her life lol".otherwise my heart wont be strong enough to give it a try.
>>287117074>i have to know. is there a happy ending? in the anime and/or manga? a true happy ending not just "and she continued to live her life lol".>otherwise my heart wont be strong enough to give it a try.I would term the anime to have an implied happy ending as she gains numerous friends that find out how she'd been living and I cannot imagine they would leave her alone given what happens at the end from then on.
The opening is already so pure and warm and wonderful...!! Thank you OP and whoever was Binchou-posting up to now! There must still be anime hiding out there that are so charming like this one waiting for us to find them /a/.
>>286821789Is the manga not translated? I didn't find anything on a quick search.
>>287116007there's an overpressure inside the furnace from the wood gas escaping.
>>286946435A little snow fairy called sugar
>>287116007Well the reality is they do burn some more of it to ash but they need to generate heat to vitrify the normal charcoal into binchoutan charcoal, they're literally reaching pottery kiln temperatures to achieve this.Technically you can make charcoal with a retort using an external heat source and a vent hole to drive off the wood gasses with, it produces a slightly different end product. Industrially there are all sorts of products derived from the driven off gasses I think they're called wood vinegar or something and then the different levels of output charcoal like torrefied or biochar.Here's a cody's lab video about charcoal science.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C5oI7pZpOK8The timing, control of temperature and the rate of burn is really where the artistry of charcoal making and Binchoutan requires even more care since there's even less by the end of it.
>>287121998I miss the 2000s moeblob era
>>287118829>Is the manga not translated? I didn't find anything on a quick search.Of the 4 volumes, most of the first 3 are available here:https://drive.google.com/drive/u/1/folders/1rV370_r5R3pDPqhLWMrSOYg2wgYlsG76And part of the final one is on YT here:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HezKVTlJxWU&list=PLp4xyg-1_s9RwVwZTUHQs6xvxo1DyZDXq&index=1
>>287122900I see, so it's a trade off between more material and a superior product. >they're literally reaching pottery kiln temperaturesoh wow. that's what makes it sound like metal at the end I suppose?
>>287112063Elda would know all about those traditions.
>>287002605and then, when you actually watch it
>>287130622Dad, are you crying?
>>286821789I want to adopt Binchou-tan
>>287131084Well you know Bobby, sometimes it's nice to remind ourselves of how blessed we are in America to have access to an abundance of superior propane fuels and propane accessories to make living easier. Some poor souls a world away are forced to toil using inferior heating mediums, and make up the difference with only determination and hard work. Always remain humble son...
>>287131825No son of mine cries. You're an embarrassment. Good Hank doesn't cry.
>>287126832Thank you. Is anyone working on the rest?
>>287131987Not that I know of but check that YT channel periodically for updates which is where the other volumes came from. Also watch to the translated Drama CDs in >>286976364
>>287132044Very nice. Thanks.
bump. :)
