>>287902106That's an End Card, seen at TV episodes' end
I remember a piece of PPD! hentai that was scrubbed off the face of the internet and only I remember it. Unless I remembered it differently.
I watched Pani Poni Dash for the first time during the Christmas stream and while watching it, I decided to count how many TL notes appeared on screen for each episode of the Oyasumi and gg release of the anime that was used on the stream. However, I had to miss the last few days of the stream and I wasn't able to finish my TL note count during the stream. A few days after the stream was over, I watched the last few episodes that I missed and finished the TL note count and I thought it would be appropriate to wait until Cinco de Maho to post my final results to the interest of no one just so that my autism doesn't go to waste.Episode 1: 14Episode 2: 22Episode 3: 15Episode 4: 29Episode 5: 28Episode 6: 33Episode 7: 37Episode 8: 62Episode 9: 21Episode 10: 28Episode 11: 10Episode 12: 31Episode 13: 4Episode 14: 10Episode 15: 28Episode 16: 9Episode 17: 24Episode 18: 12Episode 19: 11Episode 20: 5Episode 21: 8Episode 22: 10Episode 23: 6Episode 24: 15Episode 25: 4Episode 26: 12OVA: 0There are a grand total of 488 TL notes throughout the Oyasumi and gg release, with a rounded average of 19 TL notes per episode.

>>287902309Thank you very much anon!>Episode 8: 62Shin Oonuma really poured everything to that episodeIt's a pity that the OVA had no TL notes, even the Japanese on the wiki don't know some of the references. There was one blog that started doing TL notes for OVA but never updated past the pre-credits part: https://web.archive.org/web/20160321075628/http://finella.nemissa.info/pani-poni-dash-ova-reference-guide/
Hey Nani, I know you can read this.
I want to have sexo with the twins, thank you for your attention in this matter.
Isn't there an Isekai anime from the PPD! mangaka airing next season?
>>287902372Yes, Hanaori-san. I don't know if the correct term is "reverse isekai", since the demon lord and the warrior woman were reborn to human world.Let's see if it has any nods towards to PPD

>>287902309The episodes subbed by gg also had PDFs with additional TL notes that I decided to count separately from the TL notes that were on screen. I will admit that these numbers may not be completely accurate since the TL notes for all of the images of the chalkboard had several notes grouped together for each image that I may have miscounted.Episode 11: 33Episode 12: 49Episode 13: 26Episode 14: 45Episode 15: 44Episode 16: 64Episode 17: 77Episode 18: 37Episode 19: 157Episode 20: 118Episode 21: 111Episode 22: 118Episode 23: 59Episode 24: 81All of the PDFs had a total of 1,019 TL notes, with a rounded average of 73 TL notes per PDF.>>287902355I am glad you appreciate it. I wasn't aware of this blog and looking through it, I will make a note of the 11 TL notes in the blog. I'll keep it separate from the rest of the count since it's unfinished.>It's a pity that the OVA had no TL notesThe OVA did have a dead TinyURL link to TL notes for the OVA that I had to exclude from this count. I don't know if the TL notes were ever finished for the OVA or if they have been archived on another site.

>>287901482It's not as Japanese Family Guy as people say it is, the references get played for really long situational comedy a lot longer than they're cutaways/throwaways, but I still don't like it.
>>287902538Holy shit, PPD really accelated the references to the latter half of the series.I used both the reference blog and Japanese Pani Poni Wiki to compile and translate the scribbles, and to explain the references from the OVA to its own page:https://momotsuki.neocities.org/anime/ovaHowever, I don't know some of the references, like what film/drama is picrel supposed to be. My page has pics of the "unknown references", so anyone can hit me up and tell if they know the reference
I never knew PPD had a dub until the sticky music changed over
>>287902570Americans falling asleep and euros haven't woken up yet. PPD was 40 years ago mind you.
>>287902403Fear not, they travel to other worlds anyways so it's isekai regardless.

>>287901428Recently watched PaniPoni and I loved it, even if I missed a lot of references, the one I got were rewarding. I think it’s very unique and has a good cast of characters even though they are all limited by being comedic. Absolutely amazing OPs and EDs, and a lot of love from Shaft that made so many different cards, songs, ED versions, for most of the cast, used puppets too.Among my favourite characters>Bekki>Mesousa>Himeko>Kurumi>BehoimiFavourite recurrent gags>HauHau>Rararu>ia ia ia>Maho>Mahou shoujo Behoimi

>>287902605I'd say it's more that early PPD fully is reliant on references but then it levels out pretty fairly later on and settles more into its own humor and narrative. I didn't like it either.
these little girls are very sexy
>>287903750The most soothing comedic duo.

>>287901469SHUTTHEFUCKUP
>>287903655Anon, sharteens do it without a shred of irony. It's not even (You) worthy.
>>287902605>>287903849I think people get too stuck on understanding the references that it takes their focus away from the story. On my first watch, I got less than half of the references since I didn't know what was going on, but I enjoyed the whole show to the end. References in PPD are most of the time "Easter Eggs", and the viewer isn't required to understand it in order to get the joke in the situation. But I understand both of (You)r sentiment
>>287903881I think they were more of clam-lickers in the manga. I need to reread it in its entirety, and finally read the untranslated part. The language just scared me years ago and I never tried again.
>>287903970This image took me ages to find; I need to finally clean up all old harddrives and get the images from them on the desktop tower.
>check /a/ before bed>get earrapedThanks, mods.
>>287903970Seems like Hikawa took a lot of note of the dramatic twists of PPD, like with the story arc where Himeko transports into another realm with several Himekos and no Becky. I gotta read the final volumes soon enough
>>287903942It's moreso that I'd say, without it, there's not much to say. It's otherwise just a very standard gag anime focused on school girls. I walked away from it without really having anything like a favorite episode or joke, nor really remembering anything specific that I liked about the girls other than>Beccy going "jajaja" >Maho>Ichijo basically becoming a cryptidFor me, it'd be something that I would've have found to be an okay seasonal show if I was without anything to watch during the season, if only for just the OPs alone being worth watching it for. That, coupled with the references undoubtedly having a lot of presence regardless, is why I'd go as far as to describe it in that way. Otherwise there's not much to it, at least in my book. The most favorable thing I can say is that I can recognize that it would be a really fun watch if you do really take to the cast.
Redpill me on this show
>>287904026>he set autoplay on 4chanYour own fault.
>>287901614good shit
>>287904039Oh, there's a lot to it. For example Becky is likely the best written math PhD in anime. Very few writers get the mathematical way of thinking, but Hekiru is one of them.
>>287902510/a/ is slower now than it ever was. It's even slower than 2009
>>287904076References are part of this, but also there was an enormous attention to detail for the girls overall. That comes from the manga too - Hekiru averages more than 1 unique costume for Becky per chapter.
>>287904093>/a/ is getting quieter, slower, and might actually have a real shot at becoming good again as a resultMaybe the passage of time isn't so bad after all
>>287904044I have about 15 of these running. Glorious beauty to my ears.
>>287904099The entire cast is quite memorable overall, which is a hard thing to accomplish with such a large cast. And so on and so on...But yeah, in the end it's a gag anime focused on school girls. It's likely the good old truth how fans of a specific genre will find the differences inside it much bigger than outsiders would perceive them as. And I am definitely into the "gag anime focused on school girls" genre.
>>287904039You're right, references are the spice for the show. What I meant was that even if you don't know the reference is to some obscure mecha from 80s, you can enjoy the action and flow despite of that. Though, I can see what you mean
>>287904106The quality hasn't been going up as seed has been going down. If anything it's gotten worse
A good reference should be amusing on its own with minimal or no prior knowledge.>goofy aliens now serious-looking sci-fi>it's a Star Trek reference>the Alien Captain has Picard's japanese dub VA
>>287904149I see objectively less /pol/ and battle shonen shit this year than the last so many years ... it's been almost a decade, I guess.Note that I come to /a/ only for Cinco de Maho and nothing else.
>>287904116That's why I'd say here >>287904039 that>The most favorable thing I can say is that I can recognize that it would be a really fun watch if you do really take to the cast.In my judgement of the show, I wouldn't ever say that it's low quality. The effort was easy to recognize, and yeah: even though I traditionally have a hard time remembering names in larger casts, I can still remember most of them as characters quite distinctly, and they did well to integrate them all together despite such a clashing bunch of archetypes.It's just that, yeah, without being someone that is really into/is inherently intrigued by cute school girls in a gag anime, it just didn't have enough to it that really leaps out across that gap, and so finer details that you'd have to cross said gap to notice aren't as able to be appreciated. I'm just not as favorable towards it because I feel like there's a lot of other shows about cute girls that I have watched and enjoyed, or have otherwise crossed that gap for me, but I won't go into further as that tangent can easily go into the weeds and is well outside the scope of the topic of this thread and my capability to discuss it at 5AM>>287904126Fair enough. I realize in my first post I said "fully reliant," and yeah that's pretty heavy handed considering that there's not even a references to gags that I did enjoy, like early Ichijo having nothing to add but her role or the forgettable class member that I fittingly forget the name of (although, I can easily imagine someone can pull out those massive TL Note PDFs and show that these were in fact obscure references as well)
>>287904040We got cute girls, big boobs, a magical girl, a little sister, cyborgs, maids, yankees, mecha, cooking, space opera, video games, hot-blooded shounen action and shoujo romance with a whole jidaigeki (Edo period drama) episode
>>287904198I guess that's likely exactly why it's the favourite show ever of so many people, including me. A somewhat more niche appeal that allows people to really fall deeply in love.
>>287904040
Wew, didn't realize my copy was this ass.
>>287904198>Ichijo having nothing to addGuess that's why there were several character-focused episodes, like with that episode about Ichijou's love, or the one with No.6's romance. Otherwise it would've been just repeating the same jokes. Episode 19 was deliberatedly made to give more focus on Class D instead of always showing Class C's adventures>>287904230This, having watched the show several times (to find ever-so more references) has deepend my bond to it
>>287904230Or maybe Beccy's niche has a lot of appeal if you know what I'm saying
>>287902051I watched the first episode, maho girl and Becky are really cute but the "comedy" is painfully unfunny and a chore to sit through, I don't think I can do another 25 episodes of it. And not because I don't get the references, because the ones I do get are just as unfunny as the ones I don't.I'm sure if I watched this 20 years ago I'd have a soft spot for it though.
>>287904248It's an upscale and the original DVDs couldn't handle the amount of bullshit going on.Then you seem to have ADV's DVD-subs, which are the best ones but fugly due to DVD limitations.[ANE] was working on converting these VOBSUBS to .ASS.
>>287904093and altchans are total ghost towns on top of thatIs imageboard culture as a whole just dying?
>>287904191>Note that I come to /a/ only for Cinco de MahoWhere do you spend the rest of your time? Give me some nice forums
pity bump
>>287904341The dead board in the shadow of the Goddess is even more dead now, so ... yeah. I can't tell you anything, my only interaction with the outside world is following jp artists on twatter.
>>287904198Tbh, someone might also enjoy it just for the atmosphere.
>>287902389i care about it more about Cinco de Maho than 4th of july or thanksgiving or whatever you burger boys celebrate. At least latino holidays have more international pull. im british and couldn't tell you the first thing about thanksgiving. You eat turkeys and watch tv or something? It is a mystery to me.
>>287904309If anybody from [ANE] is around, just give me the encodes and the finished scripts, I will complete the release.
>>287904335Yes. Discord (IRC 3.0) won hard. Even with its soon to be mandatory ID stuff.>file share>channel and sub channel>IM/DM capability>voip>billions of servers/channels>user base large than IRC at peak>maintains historyIt's not anonymous, but create enough accounts and it sorta coulda been, still has the forum clique/seniority downside but so do we. It's a honeypot, we're a honeypot, everythings a honeypot at this point if you actually want to have SOME level of traffic.
>>287904335It's a cycle
>>287904273That too.
>>287904191There's objectively less everything. Shonen and /pol/ threads are still the fastest on the board
>>287904341A dead chatroom with Shift JIS-faced cats.
>>287904427When there are new episodes, Precure and whatever idol show(if there are any) and the yuri threads are faster than shonen.
>>287904093>>287904427You're right. /a/ is over. You should leave immediately before it collapses in upon you. Fly, fly now.
>>287901428Happy Cinco de Maho!
Becky is the cutest and dresses nice! Maho!
what the fuck does maho even mean
>>287904427True, /a/ will get fixed only if the mods decide to ban any /pol/ or WSJ battle shonen posting. But still, 4 shit threads on the front page is significantly less than the typical 7-8 shit threads on the front page that I saw in previous years.
Cinco de Maho again!?
>>287904309Wow that's a very long mouth.
>>287904491Honestly it gotten so bad that Desu is being used by the biggest schizos to shitpost with themselves. Literally, it's like 10 of the biggest retards sitting in a thread spamming to each other
>>287904475it means magic
>>287904475it means mmonkey
>>287901428maho obuzayeea desu

I enjoy pani poni dosh
Good day ahead!
Is PPD a summer anime?
>>287904491I don't think that would be enough. /a/ has other arguably bigger problems. Both /a/'s culture and the wider internet's culture has gone down the shitter. Board culture is totally dead, everyone just comes for the couple threads of the series they're reading and doesn't interact with the wider board at all. People in general, not just /a/ have gotten much more bitter and hostile. Nobody is looking to have conversations anymore, they're looking to "win" conversations. The camaraderie that existed before is totally gone. There was a sort of understanding that even if we disagree and argue at the end of the day we're still birds of a feather and here to discuss a hobby we love. Nowadays everyone genuinely fucking hates their fellow Anons. And the fucking schizos Jesus Christ.
>>287904093This isn't a bad thing IMO.
>>287904191Subjectively speaking, I think the quality in a lot of seasonal anime threads has risen, and objectively speaking, the rise of the Daily threads has been a great addition to the board. It's honestly baffling reading through a lot of them and seeing just how much a lot of first time and repeat readers are able to seamlessly come together to genuinely discuss stories in full
>>287904654>everyone just comes for the couple threads of the series they're reading and doesn't interact with the wider board at allThere's a lot of microcultures here and it's becoming a cesspool, some people are using 4chan like discord.>Nobody is looking to have conversations anymore, they're looking to "win" conversationsI still have fulfilling conversations with people on /a/ and funposting with everyone is great too.>And the fucking schizos Jesus Christ.Every problem you described is caused by the "schizos" (read: /qa/, sharty and twitter newfags)
>>287901874
>>287904701Most of the problems are literally caused by mods letting the problem fester for so long. /dbs/ for instance only now started getting overly moded, which lead to them creating this new retarded /ghost/ posting culture where the biggest schizos bait and reply to themselves on desu.
Moha
>>287902510Last year the sticky was less active. The mods were even late in setting up the song. I think a lot of anons myself included have a short memory from all this media consumption and thus end up forgetting about such days.
Happy birthday Mexico or whatever
>>287904654>Nobody is looking to have conversations anymore, they're looking to "win" conversations.I feel this is the worst part about everything as of late. So many people are just foreign to the whole idea of conversation. Either that, or they came to the site fully convinced it was just a place for everyone to be assholes like they saw in memes, and think everyone truly is just in for their own self-satisfaction or to argue the most pure form of truth or whatever the fuck.So instead of threads being a place where you WANT to speak with other people and you WANT them to hear you and interact from there, it's one where they HAVE to hear you because you're spitting dat mad truth and they're getting totally BTFO and umad? But meh, frankly speaking, there's always been assholes similar to that, and it's usually avoided the same way it's always been avoided. The only real negative change is more that public faith has been eroded, so while the worst hasn't necessarily gotten worse, the good have been slightly discouraged. The best that can be done is to keep a stiff upper lip and be a willing participant in what is good, as to keep building it back up
i have no idea what this is or why this thread's so slow
>>287904701Generals lasted too long. They're here to stay now. Their brand of insanity isn't something I understand, thus have categorized it as 'bots/shills' who will post the same inane shite all day long. I miss when we just had spoiler-raw-release-release.pt2-then basically nothing for 5 days (when/if official got released to compare tl)./vg/s template was a mistake. Whilst they could have useful info, as per OP->3rd as a wall of text info dump, they turned to complete shit as those dedicated to title A would try to keep threads alive forever, having the same conversation, same info, eventually drivel all just to make sure they had presence. This is where people were trying to turn the impermanence into permanence, and on a site like this it fucking sucks moot was right after all, it also turned title specific generals into what could have been a stickied/curated forum post, what generals were trying to be, and it's had disastrous consequences.To digress a little, it why I think /b/ eventually died the way it did. Reposts of reposts. People not doing edits/jokes for fun, but an endless 'this was funny, lets see it again' and then it wasn't. Can't converse with a few individuals and theorize on title X cause between your replies to each other is 50-100 posts or utterly inane shit.
>>287904868Not him but I joined with basically that mentality except I started out on /b/ and eventually moved to /a/ after I calmed down.There will always be people who want to troll and since /b/ is dead they have nowhere else to troll but on /a/.A true revival of 4chan should start with a cleanup of /b/ by removing almost all porn threads and bringing back OC threads.>>287904928Yeah I ended up leaving a few threads turned generals because the people on them post the exact same shit everyday and have a deep hatred of any new OC./b/ was also killed by the "/b/ was always shit" meme cuz it made people complacent.

>>287901428Oh fuck I almost missed Cinco de Maho!
This was one of the first animes I ever watched but I don't remember much besides Becky and the cat-thing.
Carzy how this post sums up the average newfag >>287905057
in finnish, maho means "barren", as in a barren woman. you could use this song as an insult.that is all.
>>287901614Man your site looks so cute and pleasant. I should probably make one myself.
>>287904694Alright fine maybe I'll finally check out those dail->not a single manga I'd wanna readFUCK
>>287905174>ぱにぽに2期はよ"I want Pani Poni Season 2 soon"Me too...
>>287901428Almost late to the thread but I now have Maho in two tabs to post since Cloudflare is discriminating again.
>>287901614wtf he wrote a Behoimi spinoff? and the latest work is a isekai about a demon king and is going to get anime this year? bikkuri of the year...
>>287904694>>287905252Tbh, I don't read storytimes because I like to enjoy stories by myself. That's why I also never watch an anime for the first time on an /a/ stream. I might rarely look at a storytime of one my favorites to see the discussions. I have nothing but admiration for the anons that translate japanese manga while storytiming them though.
>>287903001you really are pathetic
>>287905326It was a fun surprise to find out that the spin-off got fully translated this year:https://mangadex.org/title/cd5a3817-092b-40ee-81d3-abc394044c80/shin-kankaku-iyashikei-mahou-shoujo-behoimi-chan?tab=chapters
The average Iq of the average /a/ >>287905311shitposter is extremely low. It's the year 2026 and the concept of a retard using two different devices to shitpost just doesn't click with them.
>>287905377Yeah, on two different IPs as wellOccam's razor you retard, two election tourists happened to post at the exact same time is more likely than your conspiracy
>>287905389>Yeah, on two different IPsBoy, the concept is so fucking lost that people actually are too retarded to understand how easy it is to post from a fucking fun and a computer at the same time
I already loved this show before stickies became a regular thing, so it feels like a nice random bonus.

Posting in a sticky.
I would have sex with all of the PPD girls.
>>287905437>>287905389>>287905057Gonna keep samefagging there. Only so many times you can spam the word "brown" before you get outted as one
>>287901808That's a lot of エロイ.
>>287905252I honestly found it to be good even for the shit I didn't wanna read. When I saw someone start One Piece, it was a good "fuck it" moment to really give it a shot after finding the anime to be so shallow and often annoying on the couple of occasions I tried to give it an honest go. Reading through it day by day showed me parts of it that I was able to genuinely enjoy with far better pacing and visual direction, it was great being able to discuss them without the shitposting I see happen to the actual One Piece threads when I'm browsing through the catalog, and I got to stay with it for a while until I found my natural stopping point where it was clearly getting worse and left them to continue on their own.
>>287905480You really fancy yourself a lot cleverer than you really are, huh?Don't ever reply to me again
>>287905311I've seen shitposters do this by posting the exact same image and text twice in a second.

This year Serizawa has been getting too little love. Did you guys stop loving tomboys?
>>287904654Yeah, I remember being active here on /a/, then on desuchan, cloudchan, fapchan and whatever board had interesting discussions, specially on /b/ during raid/doxx days, nowadays being and oldfag anon doesn't feel like 20 years ago anymore.We should all say thanks to trooncord and trannyddit

Guys, we left Mesousa in /sp/!

Mesousa is the greatest comedy character of all time. His patheticness is so perfectly tuned that every scene he's in had me dying

>>287906573He'll find his way back
>>287904093>as slow as when I started posting hereOne significant difference is that you had to F5 manually to see new posts. It was way less chat-like. There wasn't a catalog either most time. Effectively, /a/ as of today is even slower than 2008.>>287904106Even slice of life threads are regularly getting ruined by schizo nonsense now.
Posting in a Maho Shoujo thread.
>>287904654>they're looking to "win" conversations.And in the dumbest, cheapest way possible.
>>287904868Their brains are fried by social media. They normally interact only with their ingroup, which are all "based" and have exactly the same kind of opinions. For anything else, there are memes that remind/explain to them why they should hate them.
Seriously FUCK OFF MOD CUNT! This was never funny and will never be. This shit is cringe and stop try harding to be "part of the community". We all know you are some dumb discord tranny trying to hold on to some relevance when no one fucking gives a shit about your fake try hard "look guys i'm 4chan culture"You website is dying cause you are all a bunch of psyop glowies and Rapeape is a watch black mentally out of touch twitter fag.The website is dying becasue of the current 4chan team START DOING SOMETHING OR LET IT DIE FROM THE NEXT HACK FOR BASEDPARTY!
>>287906941I find it funny
I unironically recognise this retards writing from other threads and he always says and writes like the imbecile that he is, always embarrassing himself
>>287906573Why is he always stuck in bad places?
>>287906941Calm down. Although I don't disagree what you say about the current head.
>>287906941/a/ is dying because it removed almost all of the board culture and replaced it with battle shonens and /pol/ trash. This here is one of the few remaining things that somehow survive to this day.
>>287907079Why do mods and janitors dislike board culture It has to be a pysop right?Some kind of experiment to see if people will just comply with tyrannical actions
there it is
>>287907110
>>287907110The mod staff actually consists of all kinds of retards who all hate /a/.That is my conclusion from 18 years of site use (god why did I waste my life on this trash dump.)
>>287907079>it removed I don't think people did it voluntarily. >battle shonens and /pol/ trash.Most boards on the site are already infected by that. Regarding the culture you have to look at it realistically, most people here are old meaning they no longer have the same enthusiasm and energy to post in the same way they did 20-15 years ago. Do you think the style of posting present in old threads would be possible today?
>>287901428I shall celebrate as per tradition: by raping Becky
>>287907201Of course the mods did it deliberately, that goes without saying.>>287907218No, she's mine to rape

Adding "Chad" to a name is the most low iq shit nu-/a/ has come up with.
>>287907287While I agree, I doubt it even originated on /a/.
>>287907287>yet now it's used everywhere on the site from /v/ to /tv/ to /vg/ to /co/And they say /a/ has no culture...
Was the new bluray rip of this show any good? I believe I heard it was just a poor upscale. Shame, but not much you can do. Anyways, Pani Poni Dash is a great show. Nice to think about it sometimes.
>>287907329>I believe I heard it was just a poor upscale.many such cases for 00s anime.

i found the alt chans fascinating when 4chins was down for weeks because they have boards to fit their very specific needs (mostly gacha and vtubers hue), meta threads get the most posts and there's like ~5 altchans from what i can remember so why even have so many other than "my altchan is better than yours"
>>287902139melli was 8 years ago
>>287907507
>>287907507I will forever miss the original infinity chan, it was a genuine alternative for this site until /pol/tards had to ruin it by killing someone and turning the site into a literal honeypot

>>287904654>People in general, not just /a/ have gotten much more bitter and hostile. Nobody is looking to have conversations anymore, they're looking to "win" conversations.It's social media. Everyone ends up having hugboxes or garbage that reinforces their beliefs recommended to them by the algorithm. Plus the nature of social media is that there's a constant stream of content, so you don't have to engage in a discussion that's over a day old because there's a new one, incentivizing low-tier drive-by snarkposting over actual discussion. And then the rest of the Internet is downstream from there.Facebook and its ilk are a bigger cancer to Internet conversation and culture than the very worst /b/ newfags from 20 years ago.Anyway MAHO

>>287908580Who knows you might have spent that time on equally useless stuff. I do feel that the few times I had fun on 4chan it felt more magic than everywhere on the internet.
>>287908245besides tripfags I wouldn't understand why an anonymous board user would want to set food in shitcord. newfags are an exception of course, they probably got there before learning how to ride a bike
>>287908852>you might have spent that time on equally useless stuffNTA but I think so, too. The same underlying causes (whatever they may be) that made me spend too much time here would've made me waste it somewhere else.

>>287904093Every time there's meta in threads, it has the same cookie cutter responses because retards are unable to accept to the contrary. Yeah, /a/ is slower because there's less and less newfags because younger people are less likely to come here and even among the older users, they're old enough now that they realize they can't feasibly be NEETs for much longer or they'll be homeless.It's the same sorta shit where people used to greentext when anons would post about their friends or girlfriend, people know better (that anons have both) but still want to pretend this place is an elitist space for weirdos that spend all day here. The amount of anons that actually still browse /a/ religiously, disown "crossboarding", turn their nose up at image watermarks like imgflip or ezgif, don't use other sites including social media or shit like Discord, don't spend time doing real life activities in lieu of posting about anime and manga, the list goes on, that amounts to probably so few people that you could count them on hand, if even. TL;DR anons are old and care less about imageboard culture and being selective and are just living their lives. Anyone that still does is a retard stuck in the past.
>>287909464>FAST & LOOSE & HORNYSEX and VIOLENCE with MACHSPEED
>>287904654What wider board? The thread is almost entirely just the threads you’re complaining about. There’s no board culture to interact with because no one is making it, not because no one is interacting with it.
>>287909580Nice headcanon, too bad you're wrong.
>>287909675>There’s no board culture to interact with because no one is making itIt's hard to make culture, most people on 4chan are old.

>>287909580Every oldfag has some group of anons they stick to and don’t give a shit about the board at large anymore. Best example is the Christmas stream, they don’t come here except during their own stream, which is just a more public and advertised version of the stream they run year round.
