• Cosplay
• Lolita
• J-fashion
• Conventions & gatherings

Our board rules are simple:

• Thread content must be related to one of the categories covered in the list above. Off-topic threads and replies will be deleted.

What's the best community? If you could just magically wake up already living in the city with the comm of your choice, where would it be and why?

Are there any comms that you feel are too far gone and better left given up on to dissolve by their own internal squabbling?

there is way way more shitty anime now. i would take any 2000s fanservice harem over "i isekai'd as a sentient asmr mic for a high school all girl asmr club" anime has always had good and bad but some shit now is sickening.
>>
>>10911330
nta but anime is still full of fanservice and low brow entertainment now. The harems just moved into isekai
>>
>>10911476
exactly, if anything there is more bad anime now because there are more companies making anime, let's not discount the omegaverse yaoi anime being marketed as a cute gay family show. or the copious amounts of straight up hentai being officially subbed(like interspecies reviewer). if anything smut is more prevalent and normalized in basically everything. even apothecary diaries has some uncomfortable things in it.
>>
>>10911469
I didn't say there aren't shitty anime now. That's not the point. It's also not a fair comparison to compare a 2000s fanservice harem to the most obscure low budget isekai anime out there today. The barrier to entry to making anime is far lower now.

>>10911476
2000s was peak fanservice, sometimes in shows that had no substance to justify the fanservice in the first place.

>>10911482
I would take interspecies reviewers (uncencored) over the large majority of harem anime from the 2000s. Smut itself isn't the problem. Interspecies reviewers isn't fan service, it's basically soft core animated porn.
I would take interspecies reviewers over any 2000s anime that lacked a story but had upskirt shots, boob shots, etc galore.
For me personally there have been some shows recently that blow the large majority of 2000s anime (regardless of genre) straight out of the water. Is there cringe shit now? Sure. Does some recent anime lack substance? Absolutely. That's not the point. I loved anime in the 2000s, but imo there are more good animes being released every season now imo than there used to be in the 2000s. If your argument is that there's simply more anime being released and that explains that, then that's fair. That doesn't stop me from thinking a lot of 2000s anime is boring and lacking in substance.

I'm getting far more shows right now where I'm enjoying every single episode compared to in the 2000s, when I made myself sit through some episodes of some shows for the sake of the story just because I had basically seen everything else that got subbed. There were also plenty of slow seasons for me in the 2000s where I didn't like anything that was being released, or just one show.

>>10911518
2000s was only peak fanservice because the broadcasting laws were different and allowed a little more. They still do whatever they can get away with

Idk who made the first thread, but I made this second one and I am also sick of this discord bullshit. I put all those questions in the op in the hopes that people would actually talk about the con/cosplay/other nerd shit, but you discord losers can’t stop talking about yourselves and each other for 5 seconds. I am begging all of you to get a more interesting personality

>I put all those questions in the op in the hopes that people would actually talk about the con/cosplay/other nerd shit
Not even half the posters here bothered to read that, or they saw through it and don't care. Unfortunately, you're trying to reason with the most mentally ill scene in the country. And even barring that, scroll through any thread that does the same thing you did. They go out of their way to pussyfoot around the most basic questions and avoid saying anything of substance
>>
>>10911500
The midwest cgl scene is actually closer to what you'd see pre-2016 cgl be in terms of cat fights, petty drama, rumor mills, and so on. However there are two big differences.

1) Instead of them spawning their own discords to get away from problems they all stuck around eachother for who can only assume is drama fuel.
2) Decided that 4chan cgl somehow hasn't changed ever in what people view it as and assume people still care about gossip like this

There is a reason almost every other community took their issues to the thunderdome of discord out of anons sights. I only assume they keep this up because they've cultivated such a community of weirdos that any fresh blood are scared away before they even look into any of the claims they have. The last few cons I've gone to it's been down right depressing unless they can talk about how 'dumb and gay' things are or get told a story about a member who would scare off anyone with 2 brain cells. Last years midwest was the final straw for me. They fail to realize that by constantly non stop talking about these things they only implicate themselves as hanging around these weirdos.
>>
>>10911519
In response to your first point, you're actually wrong. Other discords have been made that are completely removed from gull drama, specifically to not have to deal with them. In short the only reason those of us from said discords are here is to keep a pulse on things and enjoy the spectacle of stupid drama. All our con planning happens completely outside this sphere now. For myself personally I primarily come here out of a sense of nostalgia and idle curiosity.

I too am sick about hearing about fucking warsie & reisen though, even if I am here for a sip of tea. They're just boring to hear about at this point. I already interacted with reisen especially enough in the past, I don't want to be continuously reminded that he has learned literally nothing.

I figured I'd make one. I only ever come back for cons I'm going to. Any of you men going?

Yeah I know it's expensive. And mostly drunk. But I enjoy the atmosphere and laying by the pool during the day.

I've been serious on the diet and exercise train. Should be looking good enough for my Krauser cosplay in a month.

I'll be going; I've been working out since January to tone my body for my Simon cosplay along with a few other Gainax/Trigger costumes. Barring abs, I've been doing pretty good on the grind so far.

I’d becoming back from Momocon that same week, but I might drive up for a day just to feel a sense of nostalgia.

Remember that abs are all about body fat percentage, you can only do so much just from working out

It’s nowhere near as bad as Moitie imho, at least the re-releases they’re doing aren’t like Chinese knock off tier. The fabric for nu-Meta is interesting. It’s not as cheap as AP poly, and the construction is definitely better than AP, but it’s still not what I’d like to see. I also feel Meta did a great job keeping the fullness of the skirt, and there’s no skimping on fabric, so you can get a really nice poof. What happened to MMM is a tragedy. That one dress with the forest print is literally taobao tier.
>>
>>10910005
Yeah, I'm the op and that wasn't what I meant it was more like the entire global economy seems shit rn. West, jp or China or anywhere. So the decision to release a lot of expensive dresses in a row is odd.

its so crazy that cgl just happens to be full of skinny people with 23" petite dolly uwu waists but every self poster thats been exposed on here is far, far from that description. its all cope.

>>10910468
nayrt, it's a mix in here. I'm pretty sure there are some fat people here who have that waist size who admit 82cm waist is fat because they don't want to fuel anyone's delusions.

There've been plenty of fat and chubby people on cgl talking about their own measurements and which dresses they fit in, and they weren't jumped or mocked for doing so. People just hate it when fat people pretend they're not fat.

Anime and manga artists obviously base their female characters off of slavic women's faces and now they provide us with the best takes on those characters. As Elton said, It's The Circle Of Cosplay. They also look the most elfin.
