What are /a/'s thoughts on the latest Gyaru x Otaku self insert wish fulfillment slop? Make no mistake, I actually am a fan of this genre, sort of a guilty pleasure.
>>287428243I want my fucking eraser back.
>>287428243It's as natural as the alliance between Japanese writers and modern gals since both the nerd and the gal result from rejection of mainstream culture's gender expectations. The most zealous forms of gyaru and otaku are outright counterculture and so it's only the restoration of ties that should have always existed. These sorts of school politics among cliques is also one of the shadows of the campus struggles of the 60s that established tropes like nepotistic and reactionary sports clubs and student councils siding with the school administration, police, and government against "eccentric" clubs.
Got second hand embarrassment when skipping through it. But I understand this type of thing is needed for some dudes.
The title is enough to tell me that I will hate it. I assume the protagonist is a loser who randomly receives affection from cute girls, and the story is entirely about their relationships.However I would be fine with an otaku hero that picked up a gal heroine during his adventures.
For me, its Gyaru-oh x Fujoshi
Should I watch and/or read this?
>>287429161The brunette is a closet otaku so that's why they bond. The blond is actually family girl and her younger brothers like him. The girls are popular because they're hot, but they are not actual "gyaru".
>>287428243>>287428503I want to shove my tongue in gyaru butts.
converting gals to otaku!
>>287428243Food Court 2: Electric Otaku
>>287428243The manga has a lot of soul. It was quite the surprise because the first few chapters were eh. It really came unto its own when Amane started geeking out with otaku-kun.>>287429417I recommend it
>>287428243Are these girls sluts?
>>287428243I'll give it another episode or two but the mc already got on my nerves
>>287428243I don't give a fuck about wish fulfillment unless those pretentious retarded faggots never shutting up. Just hope this ends in threesome.
*unlikeThe fuck? I literally didn't type it.
I knew a couple of girls like this in college, big tits, good fashion, went to parties, watched anime (literally just Naruto and Shingeki no Kyojin), and fucked otaku because they were all cute harmless virgins and they liked cute harmless virgins for some reason (I don't really get it), and also so they can nerd out about Naruto with them. And also they smoked weed.One of the big breasted brown girls explained this to me while she was hanging out with my dorm mate, so I'm not just extrapolating this from some aberrant behavior or making it up from my sick fantasies, this is literally just what she said herself, and her white friend backed her up on it. They were way too in to Naruto for me to care though. I want an anime to explore this aspect a little more. Yeah sure the gyaru "is secretly an otaku" and she "likes anime," but she's got shit taste and a low power level and I really don't wanna hear about her My Hero Academia ships for the 30th time today
>>287428673That and Nips wanted to fuck the blonde Valley Girl types.
>>287428243I liked the manga until it became obvious it was just going to be generic wheel spinning slop that will just endlessly tease OT3 shit util it finishes with a non-ending because it's blatantly obvious that Amane was supposed to the love interest but is boring and has way less chemistry with the MC than Ijichi. So now it just turns into standard "string readers along until the author is bored and ends it" bullshit.
>>287430585>and fucked otaku because they were all cute harmless virgins and they liked cute harmless virgins for some reasonman, the things I miss because I live in my mom's basement 24/7...
>>287431075That's sort of the point, the same types of media that were influencing female counterculture aesthetics were the ones giving boys fetishes.You could say that otaku achieved a reversal of this, or at least had a part in a coalition victory, in making anime-like fashion trendy while being based on media that boys want to fuck. >>287431263This is why you join school clubs, go to cons, etc.The college club here used to run their events out of a local bar and had wild after-parties with public sex and roman candle fights in the street
>>287431464>This is why you join school clubs, go to cons, etc.I've thought about it but I just don't seem I was made for that shit, girls and relationships I meanI experienced what is like to have a female friend for the past year and I saw in real time how she loses interest in talking to me day by day because I just don't know how to talk to people, especially womenI'm just wasn't made for THAT world...I'm also scared of women and sex
>>287428243They just adapt anything nowadays. i read a bit of the manga. It's cute, but nothing special. some manga just don't need an anime.
>>287431587>I experienced what is like to have a female friend for the past year and I saw in real time how she loses interest in talking to me day by day because I just don't know how to talk to people, especially womenThis is just what happens with anyone, male or female. Women aren't different from men and there's no need to talk to them any differently or fear them.
These gal x introvert wish fulfilment shows are entirely realistic based on my experience in middle school. They weren't exactly gals in the japanese sense but they were tall, very horny and outgoing.Though they found a new plaything when we changed seats and I was no longer sitting next to them. They even made the new guy masturbate during class
>>287431781>and there's no need to talk to them any differently or fear them.if only my brain would get this alreadybut I'm just too stupid for this world, I guessIt's fine. Someday I'm gonna die and I'll finally be able to rest...
>>287431464Men’s cocks rule the world anon, but the clitoris counters with the final say.
>>287431844>imageShould've stayed as porn only
>>287432003Childfuckers rule the world and convince men to enslave women so that it stays that way
>>287432270Not forever anon. ALL will pass.
So do they go to anything like Comiket, or a cosplay event?
>>287432838no, they play pokemon go
>>287432838They do, later on, but it is very brief. The otaku aspect of this series is not as upfront as similar series, the social and romance development are more important here.
i see gal/gyarui watchsimple as
>>287432904>but it is very briefMaybe the adaptation will expand on that part then.
>>287433708this isn't about otaku stuff, it's about about a 3p relationship forming between 3 different types of people
>>287428243The girls, art, and voice acting are cute enough. These wish fulfillment anime are decent enough at the end of the day when I don't want to take things seriously.
>>287428243Doesn't /a/ love the manga?Why the fuck are there so many newfags that don't know this one?
>>287434294/a/ doesn't read manga, come on you know this
Ain't Seo just a manwhore?
>>287434294I can only talk for me but I have avoided reading any manga with romance for the past year
>>287434294I only read completed series. I can no longer handle the weekly/monthly grind in my old age
>>287428243Haven't watched the anime but it's one of my favorite "harem" manga since it seems like the author might actually commit to the threeway
>>287431587I didn't write this post but I'm in it
>>287428243kino
>>287428243>brunette girl mogs and she's the closet weebhnnnnggg
>>287434832I loved Luna but people here really hated the anime because she wasn't a virgin and she didn't have any "firsts" to give to MC
>>287434832>shikiHis name is Seo Takuya
>>287428243>Girl with small tits has prettier face>But the other one has massive titsWhy god?
>>287428243Romcoms written by women are all shit.

>>287428243It’s cute and both girls are SSS tier
>>287434832Based, gyaru dinosaurs n all that
>>287428243It's LITERALLY this
>>287434902>Se oTaku yaBravo Nolan
>>287428243>guilty pleasureI feel absolutely no guilt whatsoever for enjoying this wholesome, entirely fictitious throuple slop and neither should you. It's one of my absolute favorite manga. And is genuinely wholesome as fuck.
>latestThis "gyaru is kind to otaku" slop has been going on for years.
>>287428503Gonna cry otaku-kun?
>>287435692no, I will furiously masturbate in front of you until you give it back
>>287435690But this is the first time the love interest is a brown gyaru
>>287434294>Doesn't /a/ love the manga?It's pretty widely regarded as extremely comfy polykino for those who are into that sort of thing and don't mind slow burn romance. But yes, it's generally more liked here than not among romancefags in my experience. It's a very easy manga to relax with.
>>287435736>the love interest>interest >singularSir, these girls are bisexual.
these cowards won't end it in a real throuple
>>287434832I swear someone on facebook is making these with how the image quality varies between series
Schizo theory time- This manga is a piece of Pro-Natalist propaganda, somehow funded by Shinzo Abe's circle. It promotes the idea that two women can happily be with one man getting them both pregnant and increasing the Japanese population.
>>287435710too late
>>287435933I miss him, bros...
>>287435777Obviously not, but they will keep the polyamory bait going till the final chapters.Ichiji is the designated loser, she has plenty of family and friend support to get her back up and wipe the tears away. Amane doesn't have half of support circle Ichiji has, and she was the one who had something in common with Takuya at first.
>>287435968but ichiji is the first girl
>>287435440>SAO>for girlsKek
>>287435777there's an easy status quo ending, the series is romance second after all.
>>287435985She broke the ice, Amane established a connection. Neither were really first, it was a collaborative effort.
>>287435777>>287435968There's no way only one of them is dating him, they both dislike that ideaIt either ends in an open ending or all of them get together
>>287428243I tired of them.
>>287435690You don't know how the word "latest" works, do you ESL-kun?
I've enjoyed tons of romcomsFirst episode was alright but I'll stick with it because alot of people seem to like itYou fuckers better not be lying to me about the threeway relationship either
>>287428243It's not the worst thing out there, like that gyaru show decade ago.
>>287435933Parroting stale memes is not a schizo theory, it's just lazy and dull.
>>287434832>2017Worst fucking series ever, plus it was absolutely full of ''quality'' moments
>>287428503If Ijichi borrows my eraser can I borrow your lips.
Why is /a/ so obsessed with self-inserts and male leads instead of girls
>>287439611male leads are half of the equation in romance works, a good one makes an anime 2x as enjoyablethankfully this guy is relatively pleasant compared to some other harem protags, he can actually communicate with others which feels like a fucking accomplishment in this genre
>>287431844>spoilerj-just like my eromanga. Tell me more!
>>287434902>>287434832my HERO
>>287437107Ryo bestgal despite not being in the bowl.
>>287428243Looks interesting, I'll check it out.
>>287434981There is nothing more proper for a woman than breasts that can rest the weary soul of her man when he lays his head on them
8man when?
>only just now realized the MC's name is a punI've been reading the manga for years and realizing this now brings shame to my entire ancestry.
>>287440194Hated it the first time around, still hate it now.8man is a buffoon.Oregairu as a whole is still excellent though.
>>287440236wait till you learn that half of all anime characters have double meanings in their name's kanji/radicals
>>287435736Does the Okinawa anime not technically count?I don't really care though, I just want to impregnate tanned girls
>>287439611What isn't /a/ obsessed with? You could've put yuri there too as a word.
>>287431844Oh I had a similar experience too,once in the bus way home I was seated next to a pair of girl classmates that for a reason I no longer remember found funny how sensitive I was to them lightly touching my head, ears and hair even softly talked a bit like ASMR, it didnt continue but was memorable, granted one of them also because I was with my eyes closed(usually slept on way home )kissed my cheek too.Girl can get pretty touchy feely on harmless guys I guess.
>>287435777I mean, we won´t get a shot with the girls in wedding gowns for real, but I imagine an open ending with them living together or going to same college.
>>287439611I don´t know what to tell you, it just doesn´t hit the same when the main is a girl even if it is a harem, besides self-inserting there´s a bit about how others see the relationship as girls together doesn´t stand out so much as a guy with multiple girls around
>>287428243I don’t know what things are like with women these days, but back in the ’90s and 2000s, girls could be pretty brutal to nerds, geeks, and otaku. I remember they mostly went for athletes or guys in gangs. The bullying my generation went through was so bad that it’s hard for me to believe attractive girls would actually flirt with or fall for shy nerds.
>>287441120brown but not a gyaru
>>287437107I love this page just for the girls pulling an actual>haha just kidding... unless?
>>287428673This kind of gyaru?
The anime is expanding the scenes quite a bit compared to the manga, I love it.Seo is going to be extra gyarued.
>>287442756I never saw any girl bullying nerds in my generation (I was born in 92). I could say I was kind of a nerd, not the kind into anime besides DBZ and pokemon stuff and nobody bullied me either. In fact, I would say I did some of the bullying too abut I was mostly just a problem kid
>>287443403that's a ganguro
>>287444117Ganguro gyaru. Like a difference between a nerd and an otaku.
>>287444225yeahnot really a fan of ganguro. I just my gyaru simple and cutekuro and shiro gyaru, that's it
>>287428243>>287428503>>287435961Built for sweaty butt fucking on a lusty humid summer day
>>287443772i was born 82 and while I was heavily bullied for many reason, being a nerd was only a minor factor in it. it was more used as ammunition by people who had already decided to cruel for other reasonsSome separate teasing for nerd shit though, but that wasn't anything malicious
>>287441120Equating Okinawans to Gyarus is like equating tanned people to Black people.
>>287444806potato potato
>>287442756>Anon learns that retarded boomers and Gen X never got over their high school days and project their insecurities into cartoons
>>287445441You can say cope or whatever, cause I think it's also a venting story, but the author has stated he made this because he got fucking tired of seeing NTR/Bully slop where parents were wholly useless and let everything happen.So he wrote a story where adults actually step up and do something to stop bad behaviour.
>>287445925Well, I was talking about older western cartoons from that timeline anyway, but I digress.>because he got fucking tired of seeing NTR/Bully slop where parents were wholly useless and let everything happenBased. Zero tolerance was a mistake.
>>287445441It's a highly individualized thing actually. In my area there wasn't really any anti-nerd sentiment by the late 90s. There was no bullying based on hobbies at my mid 00s high school where the jocks were just as eager as everyone else to hook up xboxes to the classroom projectors during our pathetic "school festival" day. Dudes on the football team were on 4chan and there was an open recruitment effort to get more people to go to the anime con in town which was way less successful than the drive to get people to go out to play paintball. Convincing people to go to cons probably would have been easier if they'd been pitched as hangouts where everyone sneaks off to smoke weed and drink and have sex just like at a football game or dance, since that's what they were by that point. This was the height of the era of dub VAs touring the country fucking anything that moved at hotel-sprawling afterparties with more underage drinkers than at a frat house.
>>287442756>I remember they mostly went for athletes or guys in gangs.They still do, anon. But not before getting the nerdbucks. Girls are smarter nowadays.
>>287435933only to realize that shit like that would never happen and Takeshi ends up crying himself to sleep muttering “giwtwm”
>>287439611Because female leads only need to fulfill one requirement>be cute or sexyand everybody is content.Male leads are judged more critically since they can't skate by on looks along because most anime fans are straight guys, hence the discussions
>>287434294I stopped reading manga when I realized all the good manga gets turned into anime anyway and it's easier to watch it than read it. I might go back and read it once the series is done though.
>>287428243Why is everyone just ok with people talking like retards lately?
>>287428243Its mid but a good mid.
>>287449004The retards who post like the OP are the majority of this entire site. /a/ has fallen.
>>287440337I firmly believe that Oregairu should not have had romance. He should've found friendship in Yukino and Yui and learned to improve through them and then eventually find a random mob girlfriend.
Well, /a/?
>>287452410It's actually one of the very few where threesome is valid
>>287442143you were raped
>>287452676men can't get raped by women
>>287452410if I really have to choose then Keibut how can anyone choose just one?
>>287452862Is that what you told yourself on penis inspection day?
>>287452676>you were rapedI kind of feel ashamed that I feel proud about that, it wasn´t even the only time(around middle or high school) another girl younger than me also asked me if she could kiss me I though "sure why not" thinking she was going to peck me on the cheek or forehead... she straight up stole my first kiss going full tongue, probably not her first I´m sure, be careful mesugaki´s(age gap wasn´t that big but at that time it did felt like that as a lad) do exist out there. Main point is that while manga get away with a lot for being fiction, it isn´t impossible at reasonable degrees.
>>287452410Kotoko is the right answer
>>287452410Impossible choice
>>287440236spoon feed me pls
Danshi Kokoseidakedo Gyaru ni TS Shimashita is better
>>287458904good for you bro
>>287428243i'm in love
holy wow the openingthe vibes are insane
>>287452410kei hands down>>287459868i think it has the most fun dancing of the season
>>287429417Sure if you like romcom
>>287428948Go back, normalfag
>>287435967Same
>>287452410Why not both?
>>287458790Seo TakuyaseOTAKUya
>>287428243This looks better than last season's version of the same story. Last season had the Gyaru and the Nerd guy immediately have a relationship like it was normal or something, this seems more interesting.
>>287435933>Prime Minster has many evil plans to force men to have sex with 3DPD>A lone gunman knew there was only one way to save his people from this terrible fateThere should be movies made about this.
>>287442756Christ, I still get the occasional sneering remark if I walk past a teenage girl on the street. 3D women just suck in general.
>>287440194This must go so hard if you're a white misunderstood highschooler with unkempt long hair
>>287459868>>287460078Does this count as TikTok-dance shit as I've seen people call it around?
>>287461195Anon take a fucking shower you REEK
>>287461703YesIn the manga the blonde gyaru specifically calls them tiktok dances and posts those dance videos on instagram
>talking to your female classmates
>>287452410Always choose the third option.
>>287461747I do, it's more just looking like a nerd upsets some women at a base level for some reason.
>>287428243this one's cute and I like the charactersI don't like the other one airing this season though
>>287461971Low karma is contagious. Stay inside loser.
>>287461971I look like a nerd and I'm short as well but have never gotten remarks or weird looks from women. Guys like us should be invisible so if you're receiving negative remarks then you're deformed or something.
>>287442756I had a little of both. Some girls were utter assholes, and frankly still are, but the occasional one was still friendly enough. I still vividly remember the time one of the vaguely popular ones was casually talking to me about weird stuff she found that gave guys erections. She said something like "yeah, like check this out" and gently tickled the back of my neck. She was right I got rock hard in seconds. It was the only time in my life a woman intentionally tried turning me on.
>>287428243How do i self insert as someone so pathetic and meekI'm no Chad but I'm not a weak faggot either
>>287448846>it's easier to watch it than read itHuh?
>>287461195>>287461971Hide or at least lower your power level and consider contacts if you wear glasses.>>287462004This. It’s how you carry yourself, but I’ll take invisibility over the alternative.
>>287462004I mostly am invisible, It's only really the very rare occasion where a group of teen girls are together and one of them wants to be a cunt. I suspect they do this to any guy on his own, like how occasionally in a group of guys at least one of them will be an insecure prick and start insulting anyone on their own because he gets to act like a tough guy in a group of his friends.I guess I might just live in a shitty area.
So are we thinking the threads for the anime are going to stay unusable or what?
>>287461161And the stranger there among them had a big iron on his hip.
>>287462048>I guess I just live in a shitty areaThis is usually the case. It depends on the circle, but athletes are all right. You shouldn’t let bad pussy get in between either of you and cause a rift.>>287462085Hopefully not if we’re able to gatekeep /pol9k/ and the yuritards.
>>287462085It's a gyaru x nerd anime. It's going to attract trolls, losers and internet tough guys. I'm pretty sure all shows like this have such threads.
>>287462107Fuck. Might have to stick to the rare manga threads then, thankfully those people can't read.
>>287459868>dancing on desksI didn't know this anime was for black people
>>287462020>How do i self insertYou write a book or some other fiction.
>>287440236What is the joke? SEO of sex?
>>287442756GTO had a similar plot though. People just like who they like.
I'm thinking about picking up a modern anime romcom. Is this shit good (i.e. are the girls cute)? I can see they look cute but do they act the part too?
>>287465426watch the first episode and see for yourselfmy answer is yes, they are the cutest!
>>2874282433D females hate seeing 2D girls being kind to sub-8 guys, it makes them seethe and mald on X (formerly twitter), which is incredibly funny
>>287465898Well I guess I know what I'm watching. Thanks anon.
