Why is Japanese humor so bad?
It's literally kindergarden tier.
>>
>>216145988
Fmab's intended audience are 12 year olds. Also the manga was written by a woman.

>>216145988
I know a weeb who is so obsessive with Japan that he on principle says every other media is bad if it's not in the Japanese language. Immediately after learning Japanese he says 'I think I'm giving up on comedy' the guy used to be really into sketch comics like Sam Hyde too. Genuinely hilarious moment for me.

limitations of language, unironically. After getting up to N2 proficiency is when I started understanding why Japanese comedy heavily leans towards the visual/physical.

Have you ever watched Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei?

>>216148577
Yeah, didn't laugh once. Still liked it, but it definitely wasn't funny.

Does yaoi hands count as Japanese humor? Because this is the only time I've lost my shit laughing at anything Japanese.

watched about 50 episodes. shit was too esoteric for me

I think japs are just so artistically repressed that their sense of humor hinges on acting out in an exaggerated fashion. You don't expect the quiet tistic kid at school with few or no friends to be a comedic genius do you?
>>
>>216148913
On second thought that's incorrect.

This show made me laugh as well. Chuds don't like it because it has a tranny plot, but apart from yaoi hands or unintentionally bad eroge CGs I don't think anything else got a laugh out of me.
>>
Fumoffu is the only piece of media made in Japan I know of that is even remotely funny.
>>
>>216149043
British humor is world's best

The older you get the more you realize shounen battle/power level stories are the real peak of manga.

Grim. The Love Hina gag of the protag being knocked around by women for being a pervert existed in the 80s too. God I hated that show.

Could you, dare I say, enlighten yourself with higher culture than this?

I like their blatant absurdity. But that's shame that they lack of sarcasm, post-irony and meta-irony.
>>
>>216149189
I'm a chud but holy shit this looks hilarious. I'm in. I just distaste tranny shit when it's forced.
>>
Most of the anime shit you watch is for normies. All the truly funny hilarious shit stays quite niche because normies are retarded.
>>
>>216150075
Recommend something.
I liked Cromartie school btw.

>>216145988
this scene was funny, I laughed

Ping pong the animation is the best anime ever made
>>
>>216150075
It's probably niche in Japan as well. I remember talking to normalfag Japanese who never heard of welcome to the NHK

Pure kino

>>216150435
What did you expect? Normies don't watch anime in Japan.
>>
>>216150434
There was a comedy anime in the 90s called Ping Pong Club. It has that 90s delinquent style humor, Kennel Tokorozawa is mostly funny because apart from it being a dog trying to fuck the main heroine Rin Tin Tin's rambling internal monologues are actually pretty funny. They picked the best comedian Japan had to utilize the fact that anime is cheap as dirt and lingers on the same frame constantly. Too bad it didn't have too long a run. Seems like most of the best stuff in regards to comedy was in the 90s.
>>
>>216150435
I'm convinced there's no Japanese period that knows about Inferno Cop or Mahou Shoujo? Naria Girls. These feel more like Adult Swim style humor, they just had actors bullshit over extremely cheap animation and it pretty funny. It's not as good as the Ghost Stories dub, but it's still funny.
