Today (20.02) we celebrate 18th Anniversary of the founding of /jp/. Share your best memories of your time here, anons!
it's been over 15 years and i STILL haven't sorted my /jp/ folder
>>50693723sort your FUCKING folder
I want a japanese bird
Here's to 18 more years! God willing.
kuso thread.
>>50693744I want a japanese bird to cook my spaghetti
>>50693785(she's mad /jp/ in not underage anymore)
>>50693806where da hops at?
>>50693891Are you blind?They're right there Anon, all eight of them.
My favorite memory of /jp/ is never being able to post about Elona or Elin on /v/ or /vg/ without being told to come back here.
>>50693894I can't see them, am I getting old?
>>50693904Elona Culture!
I hate all of you and have no particularly fond memories involving /jp/ at all. This is the only place on the internet that feels like home though, so here's to another 18.
>>50693458/jp/ is legal now!
>>50693967I'm out!
>>50693964You are mentally ill
>>50693964>>50693978I love you too ^^
I'm surfing 4chan since 2016 but never got into /jp/ and now i'm interested, where do i start?
>>50693964we have no particularly fond memories involving you either, fuck off already
>>50693458>/jp/ is no longer underagedAll my attraction is now lost.
>>50694072Hit warosu.org
>>50694090im afraid
>>50694092https://warosu.org/jp/thread/11289239
And 18 more!!
The good ol' days...
>>50694327there was no early /jp/, just former /a/ shitposters, /sp/ shitposters, /fit/ shitposters, /v/ shitposters, /prog/ shitposters, and russian and and finnish chan shitposters.
>>50694475/jp/ is so diverse....
>>50694107God this was the time /o/ went too far. Spamming the board to make the janny earn his paycheck? whatever. Fucking with comiket was not cool.
>>50694107What's the context of this?
>>50694539For a couple of years some underage avatarfags from /o/ decided to just hole up in /jp/ and spam it and I guess either it wasn't effective enough or they weren't satisfied so they started targetting individual threads just to be a nuisance, knowing everybody was looking forward to comiket.
>>50694545But why?
>>50694561Boredom I guess? Do spammers need reasons?
>>50694563Nowadays they do, so you have a point.I forgot how in the early days people would just do things like these for no reason.
>>50694545Sounds a lot like something today.
https://warosu.org/jp/thread/3859692an old thread i think about sometimes. just jaypee being very silly
Happy anniversary, /jp/!
>>50693458My best memories were the upload threads from different events and downloading random games and music.
>>50693458I hate /jp/ and I hate it even more that there's no place better than here
>>50694539some genius made up a rule for these threads: no thanking allowed, to leave more space for posts with uploads. It makes sense on paper, but guess what hundreds of anons did in response to that rule.
>>50695968there used to be two threads iirc, one for only uploading and one for discussion
i got called a newfag, a regular fag on here 14 years ago and tried to get /tv/ to invade, which then got me banned from both boards.Now I just sit in the background making smart ass posts and learned to shut the fuck up.One thing I really miss was the old japanese hermit cabins threads. Those places in japan guys would gather in the woods to play video games and live at for years. Better times back then
Why'd the board slow down so much so suddenly?
>>50696859cause all anyone does here is complain about muh old jaypee and then turn around and shit on you if you make a thread that isn't a general or a character imagedumpit is simply too boring to be here if you don't like general dwelling
>>50696859Everyone is leaving because, I did too, I have no motivation to post or make threadsCaptcha also becoming unbearable is another factor, though not a major one
>>50696859Mods against us, mentally ill faggots running rampant with no one to stop them, it's bad
>>50696859Too busy cooking a grand meal to celebrate this great occasion!
>>50696859The usual, schizos, moderation, weird bump rules
>>50693458I can't believe /jp/ is legal now. That's beyond hag status
>>50693458>your best memories of your time hereComiket threads from 2010-2012That got me into 2hu doujin ongaku, senpai
>>50697393I just noticed Marisa is going >:D instead of just :D, cheeky brat
>>50697393This fucking image is probably a significant part of why I don't like Marisa.
>>50697135What are the bump rules?
>>50697135dont forget certain threads get secret auto sage. Clownpiece threads are only allowed to survive up to 50 posts
yuyucock come on
>>50697828Its 14 days.>can only manage 50 posts in 14 days
>>50698154When did that happen? I know a few years back, threads could survive months with just some guy bumping them.
>>50698171December last year iirc
>>50698171About 2 months ago, it was (probably) set up to counter the necro bump spammer but it didn’t do jack fucking shit.
>>50698245>necro bump spammerThey know who they and it doesn't take a genius to figure out who needs to bump dead threads every 12 hours.
>>50698321don't hate the player hate the game
>>50693458Sachiko-threads in 2016 were the place to be!
>>50693458when 20 comes it will be a celebration. its a celebration now
>>50693967whats the age of consent in gsk?
TURN OFF AUTOSAGE YOU FUCKING MODS
im surprised this thread wasnt deleted lole
thx /jp/ for so much funny and informative times when i’m too bored or too hornyalso for hosting from the beginning through the end the now deceased /faaag/ general thx /jp/!!!
>>50700321god real women are so ugly, is this supposed to be an idol? am i supposed to find this attractive? and this is just what she looks like with chinese face filters on, imagine what she looks like IRL
>>50700351lmao she's not an idol, you fucking stinky weirdo virgin loser>real women are so uglykeep jerking off to fucking pedo drawings, you fucking cocksucker full of sticky seieki on your hideous snout
>>50700441back to your general, vermin
>>50700458you go first, chinese pedophile communist cockroach
>>50700466shhshoo
>>50700441the middle one looks okay but the rest are all fuck ugly. again though this is with chinese face filters, what does the middle one look like IRL?>you fucking stinky weirdo virgin loserinsulting me with this as if idolfags arent all these things, lole>keep jerking off to fucking pedo drawings, you fucking cocksucker full of sticky seieki on your hideous snouti will. i will keep fapping to flawless depictions of beauty instead of hideous 3d women with small eyes and oversized noses
>>50696859The hack itself caused people to fuck off, the reveal that /jp/ mods for some reason genuinely hate this board as if we're the literal fed honeypot that is /pol/ didn't help, plenty of people growing out of imageboards or going to Gensokyo over the years because entropy is the only absolute in this universe, so on and so forth. Depends on what you mean by "suddenly" as well since there's at least a couple other points I can directly point at like the Vtumor threadspam or the Remilia virus or 2016 which are all things that aren't exactly recent but also one of the many nails in a coffin some might even say had already been rotten for years.If you'll forgive my blogging, I pretty much stopped posting on imageboards entirely years ago and only check back around dates like these. The parts of this board that I like weren't really overtaken by the parts I didn't like even when the board started heavily speeding up, but after a certain point I stopped having fun chatting with the jay about any given topic or just fucking around. There was no singular impetus making me feel that way which makes it hard to put into words, it just became tiring. And learning about more stuff like the aforementioned hack's reveal of the mods weirdly confusing and deeply autistic seething hatred of us didn't help, nor how the worst part of this website was literally only created because Moot met with a pizza ringleader to forward a political agenda with an infinite amount of bots doesn't really make me wanna come back seriously either. I will say it's fucking hilarious to think about how so many people here unironically based their entire adult identity and ideologies around the cum dripping from Moot's asspussy, but that's more of a general site-wide issue than a /jp/ one. And checking the catalog now that my filters are gone it does seem like a good chunk of the threads genuinely don't belong here and instead came from other boards. At a glance I don't see schizothreads from that turk from pissu or whatever alt it was anymore so at least that's a plus?Oh yeah this new captcha is also probably a part of the issue too. I spent like two minutes wondering why it didn't work before I noticed the next button on the top-right.
>>50700488>are all fuck uglyyoure a fucking fag into muscular men or fucking drawings, keep seething loser, youll only get laid with your fucking pillow, no one would fuck with you even if you offer them money coz youre so hideous inside and outside, loser weirdo
>>50700503calm down ESL
>>50700495Twitter filename textwall, didn't read.
>>50700321>>50700441>>50700503You sound like a woman, so post your tits. Feel free to hide your face. Tits are the only attractive part of a woman.
>>50696859A good way to answer this is to ask what there even is to do here anymore
>>50700649if you're not a general shitter, nothing
>>50700679Exactly. This board needs something to reinvigorate it. Good luck finding that something though
>>50700685What this board needs first and foremost is non-shit moderators. Unfortunately, that's not changing any time soon.
>>50700694It could use both. More than the mods I wish this new captcha would fuck off desu
>>50700495Did most people just accept the spur.us mcl.io mossadware shit? Guess they're not going to revert it now. Posters who are aware the consequences of this change aren't normalfags, yet 4stats.io reports only 10k~ traffic has been lost during this. I looked up the spur.us mission statement and founders, I suggest you do the same. Anyone who stays after this change is guaranteed to be a retard. Besides that, I suspect that most the very few good posters that were left are gone after this change and 4chan is just another reddit front page or quora now. Until an alternative comes up that is Anonymous, spam-resistant, and appealing to users truly into that niche, no altchans isn't valid for this. There is no place for me to exist. 4chan got too big and every way to destroy it has been thoroughly figured out. It wasn't even that hard.Posted from a proxy service.
>>50700915The query only comes up on captcha load. Captcha's don't load if you have a pass, so i've yet to see any of this but i'm not ignorant of it, simply not affected. I'm just watching and waiting to see how things go.If it actually stopped spammers then I wouldn't care but it seems to have done nothing at all, so it's an active detriment to privacy (like we have much of that left anywhere on the internet anymore thanks to normalcattle and phonefags)Altchans somehow continue to be worse in every aspect and completely miss the point of simplicity in favor of modern feature bloat.
>>50700546You sound like a retard with no sexual experience, very low IQ, prolly fucked by an abusive relative or an absolute virgin around 35 years old completely into 2D preteens, prolly living off your granny's allowance because you're a parasite NEET. Fuck you and go to hell. >Posted from a proxy service.I thought 4chan didn't allow to post from proxies.
>>50701019failed normalfags be seething
>>50700495>the worst part of this website was literally only created because Moot met with a pizza ringleader to forward a political agenda with an infinite amount of botslol you whine about /pol/ schizophrenia while spewing a load of nonsense lefty/pol/ conspiratard schizophrenia. You get the board that you deserve.
>>50701100>t. /pol/fag offended anon he's replying to is right
>>50701100is the leftypol in the room with us right now anon? lmao imagine making leftypol your boogeyman in the year of our lord 2026. that place has been dead for half a decade now. you just make yourself look retarded every time you bring them up, anon
>>50701100It's not the words I would use but that is objectively the truth.
The thread is derailed. It’s over
>>50701164post something on topic then. saying it's derailed without contributing just further derails the thread
Me and /jp/ share a birthday, wowI will always appreciate the retardation we share
>>50701174Did you have a cake for your birthday?
>>50701174You're not retarded, you are special :3
>50700321>>50700351>>50700441>>50700488They're ugly not because they are real women, but because they're yellow dog-faced gooks
>>50701457Personally I'd say asian women > white women >> latinas >>>>>>>> black women
>>50700441this is /jp/
Rest in Peace, /jp/. I'll remember you as you were.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=84fOsLdqDAM

>>50704314The irony of this image being made by /a/ tourists
>>50704307supposedly
>>50705136lol
>>50693816>>50693816I miss Yoshinoya the last time I ever saw anyone reference it was in a Danbooru comment from like a month ago that got downvoted by several people
>>50705114I miss the time when boards were more interlinked and had banter between them.
>>50705241What do you mean? /jp/ is still interlinked. There's the /v/ thread, the thousand idolshit threads, and the gorillion /vt/ threads. Golly gee willikers, aren't you happy with that?
>>50705168>Danbooru comment downvoted by several peopleFuck you for reminding me of the occasional discord bootlicker 'wow thing we really liked from years ago is actually lame as shit amirite guys?' comments I see on there.
>>50706379'I like to pretend I am grateful I am forced to eat shit all the time.'What makes "people" say shit like this?Like which kind of mental illness is it?
>>50706379Not like that
>>50706406What mental illness makes you /v/tards and other crossboarders constantly talk about shit and eating shit in every possible context?
>>50706526Do not lump me with you subhumans, holospammer>inb4 broofs!?!?Die off
>>50706466I know. I was fucking with you. I miss those halcyon days too. It pains me that this is the rot we have to live with.>>50705168I saw it a couple weeks ago but admittedly I was digging through the archives so I have no idea if that was a recent thing or not. Also, what's up with Warosu anyways? Replies have been gone for a while.
I've been here since 2010./jp/sies, is it a sin that I use other imageboard (and textboards) now?
I miss the belly slapsI miss someone asking to post the run one
>>50706807No. People that complain about "crossies" are literal niggers. Basically just:>WHY YOU WAS IN THAT OTHER HOOD NIGGUH I THOUGHT YOU WAS REPRESENTIN'
>>50706807You're not some newfag shilling other sites as some ultimate alternative, so not really.
>>50706813Man, Sweet is such a shit character.
>>50706833He's pretty realistic since black people absolutely hate it when one of their own tries to climb out of the crab bucket.
>>50706839That it is, but he's so one-note it's grating.
>>50706813>WHY YOU WAS IN THAT OTHER HOOD NIGGUH I THOUGHT YOU WAS REPRESENTIN'This but unironically.
>>50706813It was valid to complain about them back when admins of different sites would get into cock fighting contests any time one of their shitty alts were mentioned in any capacity while trying to drag some small amount of people to their boards that have less total posters than the train threads, but nowadays? There's no real heritage left on this website. Even before the hack 4chan culture was dying. Even before the coof 4chan culture was dying. Even before 2016 4chan culture was dying. And /jp/ has always been a board were people who made it their home would end up leaving with the only thing left being tourism and international trash disposal. I'd liken /jp/ to some Caribbean island but I know fuck-all about them so I can't make up any specific example.
>>50707060Imageboards in general are so dead that you currently can't even stick to one board if you want to post actively. I have to refresh here and every alt I know to have something to look at.
>>50706811Big flan belly
>>50705241I miss when people sharing the same board had banter between them
>>50707156True
Shut down this board already. End the suffering, there's absolutely nothing worth keeping here.GOD I HATE VTUMORS AND 3DPD SO FUCKING MUCH.
Can't beleive I've went through so much stuff in those 18 years but this place is still as shit as always.
>>50707156/jp/ kept its own culture for longer than other boards, but it's lately been rapidly assimilating into the side-wide monoculture
>real women are so uglythis is why /jp/ is going south so fast
>>50696859I stopped coming posting here due to the vtumors and crappy generals getting spammed constantly.
>>50708705>lately2018 was almost 10 years ago anon.
can the doomposters just fuck off instead of talking about how they've fucked off
>>50709385you're probably very young, you wouldn't understand
>>50698154No it got 50 posts in 2 days and then autosaged. there's something fishy about
>>50709385No. We will keep coming back to tell you how we are fucking off.

>>50709385>doompostersIs it really doomposting to say that the board has lost a majority of its posters and thus it's heritage when that's been a provable fact for years?
>>50706811;_;
>>50706811>>50707114>>50710279as unfortunate as the board is now that's certainly something I don't miss
>>50710362If you stuck around long enough you could learn how to draw

>>50710072it's not that it isn't the truth, it's that the fags endlessly complaining and talking about how they've totally left and hate this place in every other thread are annoying for the people who still just wanna post

I wish I got to experience /jp/ while it was still good
>>50714179You actually can experience the good old days again, this is how i do it:-boot up my 2009 dell inspiron laptop with windows 7-download pale moon browser for the old firefox interface-go on warosu and set the date from 2008 to 2011 and start lurkingwarosu has enough content to keep you occupied for years! thats how i originally did it, and thats how i got into the /jp/sphere and all its spin offs, though its a great shame i never really been actually part of it myselfthere are still places where you can get to feel those dream like days, but given the nature of this site, i'll not be naming them, so i wish you luck in finding them
>>50697408It's why she's given her own spot in the shitposting wiki articlehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shitposting
>>50700546There are some seriously ugly tits out there too tho
>>50714179>>50714247Get some friends.
>>50714253Sasuga /jp/
>>50714431where?
>>50714611Don't ask me, I haven't made a new one in 8 years.
>>50696859I kind of lost hope in /jp/ around the vtuber invasion that made the board 10x faster, then got extremely buttfrustrated when they didn't get exiled after /vt/ was created and mostly gave up. Nowadays I only come back here when I remember 2hu, but recently that has only led me to also remembering that 2hu is the only thing I've ever really enjoyed in my life and that I don't have anything else to my personality, which just spirals me further into depression so I often just give up on browsing any further.
>>50715404>2hu is the only thing I've ever really enjoyed in my life and that I don't have anything else to my personality, which just spirals me further into depressioni feel the same way. there are not really any good active 2hu communities in english that i know of, so i think my next step is to learn japanese and join a japanese community
>>50715404This picture carries a tremendous emotions behind it that I can feel
>>50715404>when they didn't get exiled after /vt/ was createdthat will never happen considering how much of a vtumor fag ****** is
4jay is as whiny as ever.There are places on the internet where true /jp/ spirit is still kept.You are keeping yourself confined to a dead board full of nothing but generals and image dumps out of your own free will like an abused dog.
>>50716376>There are places on the internet where true /jp/ spirit is still kept.If you're here to shill your altchan then just say its name and leave
>>50716376He never said this.
>>50716376>You are keeping yourself confined to a dead board full of nothing but generals and image dumps out of your own free will like an abused dog.Speak for yourself faggot. I haven't actively posted on /jp/ in years.
>>50700495Some good point but I don't get how people are this assblasted over the new captcha.It literally just werks. I had trouble with being range banned before which I had to resolve by allowing third party cookies for this sites domains but now? Literally git gud
>>50700495>the worst part of this website was literally only created because Moot met with a pizza ringleaderYou're a fucking moron. Moot originally created /pol/(in the form of /new/) in 2010, and removed it in January of 2011.Note how the board existed BEFORE HE EVEN MET EPSTEIN. People were complaining NON-STOP about /new/ being removed, because it acted as a containment board-and that containment exploded across the entire website.Moot reinstated it in October of 2011, sometime around the same time as he met Jeffrey Epstein, but also, not coincidentally, around the same time he talked to Sherrod DeGrippo(which happened in November.) We also don't know if he even met with Epstein before the 23rd, as the tentative date we know of was the 24th of October, a day after /pol/ was reinstated.I don't mind newfags. Hell, god knows I haven't been here long enough for anyone to consider me anything other than a newfag. I just hate people spouting objective lies.
>>50722618But don't you want to hear about how 4chan is actually moderated by a bunch of .gov email havers and how 80% of posts come from Israel? It's from a reputable source (comment on reddit I read once)!
>>50716376I was very disappointed when I looked up this post in the archive and it turned out to be fake
>>50722799Yeah, that shit annoyed me too. Lots of EDU emails though, which has its own set of conflicting interests.Take this as hearsay, since... that's pretty much what this is: I was told by a friend who can read Japanese that Hiroyuki got into a scandal with 2ch because he WAS selling access to 2ch to foreign organizations, around the same time the idea of censorship by flooding with misinformation became a talking point within Japan. So, unfortunately, it is believable that 4chan's since been compromised by foreign adversaries; I just don't think it would've happened under Moot.>Please unblock spur.us and mcl.ioCase in point...
>>50722618This. I'm genuinely surprised to see people believe Xeddit conspiracy theories here on /jp/ of all places.
jaypee is dead
>>50724286notice how when /jp/ turned 18 everyone lost interest and left for newer, younger boards
>>50722862>Please unblock spur.us and mcl.ioAre you sure that's 4chan and not some addon or a mobile only thing? I don't see that at all. >>50722618/new/ wasn't even the first time that board was made, it was /n/ before being deleted for the same reason and replaced with the current /n/. /pol/ leaked out anyway and moot should have just let it be gone the first time. Instead we have /pol/ AND /news/.
>>50725808>I don't see that at all.Then either your adblock isn't worth its salt or you aren't using one.
>>50725727Tsk Tsk... these jaypeedos...
>>50725887Or he had 4chan cookies from before that shit got implemented.
>>50725887>>50726055Probably what >>50726055 says. Opening in sandboxie does it and also the captcha there is awful and has like 4 different things you have to do like matching shapes and finding arrows pointing at next before you're allowed to post, instead of just the find the non matching shape I have to do every few posts.
>>50725808>/new/ wasn't even the first time that board was madeSupposedly, according to bibanon, /pol/ actually existed as /pol/ as a trial board back in 2005. I just wanted to post the simplified version, since it'd be "good enough.">Are you sure that's 4chan and not some addon or a mobile only thingMy college wifi blocked it for me so I had to disconnect and use my phone's hotspot instead to actually post that message.(Frankly, I'm surprised that this even exists as JS. You'd think they'd implement this shit over PHP...)Anyways, I personally don't have much of an issue with the new captcha. I think it's pretty good. It also lightens up over time. I really just wish the captcha had a longer expiry when you have 3+ to go through, and that it'd warn you that you got something wrong rather than having to go through the post.
>>50726055So that's why I didn't get it either
>>50726368Yeah about the captcha, see >>50726136. I have never had to do more than slide between three images to find the odd one out until I tried a different browser instance.
>>50693458I remember when Kancolle was hyped as the death of Touhou and otaku culture. Blaming it for countless gatcha and mobile games and calling it one itself. Nowadays, unlike Kancolle, Touhou is the mobile gatcha game and is doing more to ruin its own fandom and otaku culture than Kancolle ever did.
>>50727746Whatcolle?
>>50706811slappa slap slap
>>50727746What's funny about any of this is that Kancolle could had easily replace Touhou as THE doujin culture if it weren't for Kadokawa shooting itself in the foot for every year since 2014. Now Touhou is as bad as Kancolle in terms of it's quality and even lawyer issue at one point (kys ruw). The manga's are mediocre and even the mainline games aren't special anymore. It's all the same thing but in different coat and it's not as fun as what it used to be anymore, Fossilized Wonders was the only game in the series that actually tried something new. Over 20 main titles later. And I wouldn't miss anything If I skip to that.What kept the series alive was always been it's legacy (regardless if it's the 90s or the past 2000s era) and the sea of fancontent it spawned. Even the "old works" are getting more attention and love than the recent titles nowadays. And that says a lot if games like Phantasmagoria of Dim Dream are far more enjoyable than Unfinished Dream of All Living Ghost.
>>50728829Nobody cares about your dead gacha, stop talking about Touhou as if you have any real experience with the games.
>>50728844Keep seething, tourist.
>>50728868>touristFunny you use that word, since it's painfully obvious from the way you speak that you've spent zero real time with the games past trying them out. Try not to speak with such conviction about things you haven't actually engaged with.Back to your gacha.
>>50728829Touhou was always shit even for low, low doujin shooter standards, the only standouts were HellSinker and Crimzon Clover
>>50728941the vtumor general is down that way
>gachafag>vtumorfagIs trying to bring Touhou down to their level some strange manifestation of cope for people with utter dogshit taste in media?
>>50722618Yeah, the pol thing doesn't really hold up unless the mail was send later. But people already got that into their mind. There's also the "manipulation potential is huge" or however it was. So yeah, people with interests and money where doing their stuff here.
>>50728941Gacha and vtubers are astroturfed trends, comparing them to Touhou is just retarded.It took Touhou years to get to the level it is now with just community passion and love for the game (some of the people that participate in events like comiket and variants sell at a loss) meanwhile new vtubers or gacha get financed by the millions of dollars or followers right away as they appear, like suddenly THIS new thing is the best thing you ever seen.And despite everything touhou always remains in the top ten of contributions at events like comiket.
>>50729075do not try to explain the concept of a soul to g*chaniggers
>>50729075>>50729104Touhou is a gacha franchise.
>>50729105go do your dailies cucky
>>50729114Yessir
>>50729105Stale bait
>>50724286Many things happened for Touhoufags to leave.The hack, not controlling spammers for years, 14days, the revealed files, moar trackers...gave people a reason to leave. Only people who really like their general and think they can't find anything similar have good reasons for staying.Posters like you are one of the few redeeming qualities this place has(or had, if you plan on leaving)For Touhoufags there isn't really much considering the fucking pretend primaries shitting everything up.They make everything "canon" discussion of shit they didn't read.They will talk about games they haven't played.Ah, but if you talk about fanworks they will shit on you because "muh, not canon".
>>50729124sigh..
>>50728905>it's painfully obvious from the way you speak that you've spent zero real time with the games past trying them outIt's because I did played them years ago and never bother trying them again since I have way better games in my catalog (and no it's not kancolle lol).>Try not to speak with such conviction about things you haven't actually engaged with.By saying that Touhou lost after the 10s?
>>50729260>i played these games for a minimal amount years ago i know what im talking aboutStop speaking, ESL.
>>50722799>.govThis is one of the biggest bullshit I've ever seen. Not even the leaker in question proved that this is the case. God this website is so retarded now it's unreal.
>>50729271Are you >>50673405 again or are we that honored of having two people with the same hot take?
>>50729308You are not comprehensible.
>>50729329Sorry I meant>>50728829 and >>50673405
>>50729308>>50729335I don't remember if I ever been in any of these threads before. So I'd take it as a no.But what I do know is that >>50729271 >>50729329 is probably the same loser.
>>50729353Isn't that a different thread? >>50570112 instead of >>50651693
>>50729379>Isn't that a different thread? >>50570112Yes, what I showed you was a different thread which I've been here. But don't worry, that wasn't his first introduction, he did this to every meta touhou threads I know with his fanboy asininity. Just say something "negative" about the games and he'll go full melty.
>>50729399You should have just posted the screenshot of the post in questionBringing up older threads is only going to potentially attract those shizos and cause a shitsorm.But I guess shitstorms like the CDS ones are most of the 2hu posts in /jp/ anyways.Maybe we have more shitstorm fans than 2hu fans thinking of it
I notice its mostly newfags and younger generations that complain about zun's "writing"The years of narrative slop plaguing the game industry has really ruined the concept of just having a nice setting.
>>50570112>Yukari>mary sueWhat? I thought Mary Sues where supposed to be popular in-universe.What are even the rules for a Mary Sue besides "poweful character I don't like"?Because sometimes it feels like it's just that. Can't you just write powerful characters(well Yukari jobs and is quite pathetic even in her PCB profile) without people shitting on them?
>>50729435>I notice its mostly newfags and younger generations that complain about zun's "writing"Because what we came from were the characters, really. We didn't paid attention to the writing because the lore was just an afterthought to us. Since we can came up with headcanon regardless.>The years of narrative slop plaguing the game industry has really ruined the concept of just having a nice setting.The main issue with this statement is that the mangas do try to have it's own narrative. And most of the time it fails so miserably that it overshadows the setting as a whole.
>>50729438>What? I thought Mary Sues where supposed to be popular in-universe.Mary Sues in a simplified term are just "overpowered female characters that never lose". We never see any shred of weakness nor we see her getting lost for real outside of beating her in PCB, which even then it's still a question if it's even canon to begin with. She will get the last laugh even if said scenario could realistically make her a loser. So her being labeled as such makes sense.
>>50729435I think it's all that content on writing there's on the internet, like vids youtube recommends of "how to write le inspiring story" or whatever shit as well as tvtropes and the like.Also people getting their info from wiki's summaries instead of the actual thing.ZUN's writing would fall under nefarious any of those "objectively correct" standardized horiwuud or whatever shithole metrics.Threads feel more like people trying to astroturf about Touhou or ZUN in general rather than the game or chapter that the thread is dedicated to.
>>50729557>what we came from were the charactersFair, It's funny how Touhou doesn't have character focused writing, despite that everyone seemingly wants that fucking type of writing really bad. I guess that gacha games actually write pandering to waifufags and that's why many moved on to those.>the mangas do try to have it's own narrative. And most of the time it fails so miserably that it overshadows the setting as a whole.It's a bit of the main problem of Touhou: vagueness. People really seem to dislike that anything that could be used for a "canon crusade" could just be a character or a piece of propaganda.I just wish people at least tried to read it before calling it shit.Because I'm tired of seeing people call shit they haven't read/watched/played or defend something with passion because they jerk off x character or x headcanon.But heck this isn't even a Touhou only problem
>>50729579People were complaining about her jobbing in CDS anon...She's also playable in the fighters and loses there a bunch of battles...>outside of beating her in PCB, which even then it's still a question if it's even canon to begin with.So extra stages are immediately non-canon or just phantasm or what rules are we following here?idk I might as well say that, save for gender Superman or Goku is a mary sue? Or heck wouldn't practically every shonen character fall into that metric as well as other characters?Are magical girl protags also mary sues?
>>50729700>outside of genderActually there is a term for male Mary Sues. They're called Gary Stus.
>>50729602The whole point of this criticism is not about that Touhou doesn't follow hollow capeshit story rules or whatever shit you think of at TVTropes. But rather it has sincere issues with the quality of it's writing on some of the printworks. You don't need to be Shakespeare to know how dogshit CDS's writing is. And hell, there are people who are as just media illiterate like you said. Who only look at the wikis and some out of context stuff in the source material without reconsideration. The e-celeb named "TheOVJ" is very notorious for this retardation, especially his "touhou is declining :(" video, which I believe it kickstarted this astroturfing and it muddied the discussion.>>50729700>She's also playable in the fighters and loses there a bunch of battles...Fair enough, I didn't paid attention to the canonicity of these games' route too. And my Phantasm stage comment was related to how self-contained it is, it's obvious since it's... well... extra.>idk I might as well say that, save for gender Superman or Goku is a mary sue? Or heck wouldn't practically every shonen character fall into that metric as well as other characters?>Are magical girl protags also mary sues?All depending on the context. In the case of Superman and Goku, they didnt just lost battles not once, but they also had character developments at the same time.

>>50729743>you don't need to be Shakespeare to know how dogshit CDS's writing isBut you need to read CDS to be able to talk about CDS properly. Which might just be my impression but people don't seem to really follow.>The e-celeb named "TheOVJ" is very notorious for this retardation, especially his "touhou is declining :(" videoI'm not really gonna watch a 1 hour long video but I'll take your word for it. Maybe I'll watch a "lorevid" to see how it goes.>decliningThat kinda relates to my other problem, people shit on new stuff but can't be assed to discuss old stuff either.
>>50729845>But you need to read CDS to be able to talk about CDS properly.What I meant by "shakespeare" was that you just need basic media literacy skills to understand. It wasn't about the consumption, you NEED to consume said media to understand what is going on here. And I do agree that some people just don't do that.>That kinda relates to my other problem, people shit on new stuff but can't be assed to discuss old stuff either.Absolutely true, there are some old stuff that are worthy to the discussion and not talked a lot by the community, yet most of the time it's getting a slide.
>>50729865>What I meant by "shakespeare"...Not really disagreeing with you. One would also need to know some previous Touhou lore imo, for it not to be weird, which maybe people also lack.>some old stuff that are worthy to the discussion and not talked a lot by the communityGot anything in mind, that really bothers you how it gets overlooked?

Gachas come and go, but Touhou has never recovered and never will

Wow, 18 years of this shit huh. Still can't believe I spent most of the 2010s on here.>>50700495I'm still always surprised to come back here and see what's left of my old stomping grounds seething over vtubers. Lunafan victory screech? I guess?? At least we get to talk to mentally ill women (and trannies).Otherwise I mostly agree with this post. It was death by a thousands cuts combined with nothing really changing in the board's culture. Same imagedump threads about the same Touhou characters year after literal year. I'm only learning now about the hack exposing what everyone already knew about our relationship with the jannies. lol. lmao, even.Also, you guys fucking forgot about /prog/! What the H*CK
>>50732656I mean >>50694475 mentioned /prog/...But idk how many oldfags are really left. Most likely they will just check shit out every now and then and nope away.

>>50729743>it's obvious since it's... well... extra.iirc all extra stories happen directly after the mainline story.>toyohime.jpgDo you think the first yook-moon war to be also a planed defeat by Yukurry?>All depending on the context.Indeed Superman has like a shit-ton of writers/stories across many decades so it depends.Can't really say much about him but I've heard people talk about how he doesn't change in a story that much but rather, the writing adapts to the time.Goku stays pretty much the same in DBZ start to finish. And from what I've heard from complaints about Super.Those characters feel rather as they change with the times(meta reasons) than in-universe reasons.So I guess they're Gary Stus by that definition, because I guess we need a different term for the same thing but genderbend.I guess my definition is different or something because I thought a Mary Sue was mainly a matter of charisma, to the point where it feels that other characters like the character and constantly help her out, just because the author wants it.

>>50696859Every board has slowed down. 4chan is dying. /jp/ has slowed down more than other many other boards because this place has been dumbed down to Touhou imagedumps and generals (which are also often just imagedumps). Many people have just moved on and newfags would rather spend time on X and Discord which are way more active. People also talk about altchans, but let's be honest, there aren't any true /jp/ alternatives.
