Tuned in to Post 2K Anime / Manga!

And to think that bacl in the day this was considered the bare minimum in order to achieve publisher status, today's anime are all cookie cutter Isekai shit "i reincarnated into…" made with the only goal of being escapist slop, today's anime industry needs to fail so much that it gets kicked out of mainstream status and only there we will be able to see something worthy.

I saw this on /gif/ awhile back, glad I saved it.

I stopped reading 1-2 years ago but Nue and Kagurabachi are worth checking out. Nue is a fun LN harem-like with a cool way of "worldbuilding", the author probably has an autistic list of notes (but it isn't explained very well). Kagurabachi's style is unmatched and is very visually inventive, and the first 2 long arcs (chapters 10-40?) are literarily impressive.

I only still read One Piece and HXH when it returns. I was thinking of reading the rakugo series but never did start it. I do occasionally read some of the older series though. I'm reading Hell Teacher Nube right now.

I think weekly manga are kind of annoying to read. Maybe it's just reading OP for so long and its pacing being shit though.

>>658
I think Akanebanashi is really quite mediocre. It's one of those manga that doesn't deserve an anime imo (like Witch Watch, Roboco, and so on). Jump is letting all these low-effort series get anime because they just have nothing else.
You should read World Trigger and Gintama.

>>661
Anime is not a prize to be won by what you deem worthy, you arrogant twit.

>>669
Gee okay, my bad for having an opinion I suppose.

>>329
Uh, oh. Are you really prepared Mugi? Don't get me wrong, I really wish you succeed, I just don't want you to screw yourself over with diving into that whole mess.

Komugi is risen!
(I like Koyori better though)

>>239
She's actually the worst IMHO. Sorry, just not interesting. Too submissive.

Another character the internet has ruined

AWOOOOOO~

Anime/manga itself is disappointing. The art form never reaches its full potential. Always held back by slop consuming otaku and American cultural vultures, destroying all beauty with their fetish for predictable templates and cookie cutter formalism. True one-dimensional men flattening out the art into joyless masturbation in a simulated consumer reality, a true opium of the people that numbs their senses to a cruel, oppressive, and harsh world they refuse to do anything about beyond whining. I am disappointed by all anime/manga by default.

Ameku Takao no Suiri Karute was a disappointment. Despite a novel setting for an anime, it feels this show couldn't decide between being an absurd and silly or a serious detective anime. Takao is also a terrible detective and they \wheel out a generic cop dressed as Columbo who happens to be a brainlet as if to imply Takao is better than the greatest TV detective of all time. Many of the cases feel uninspired or absurd too. Somehow a man is able to lift a T-Rex jaw from a museum and use it to amputate a leg by himself. I would have liked a nice medical themed anime but instead we got Sherlock Holmes level slop except with a cute girl and a bunch of silly seasonal anime stock tropes.

If there was one I liked but was soured by disappointment it had to be To Your Eternity. I feel like it should've ended with volume 12 and the modern period be an epilogue. It's a much more natural endpoint following a great climax than going into a school arc.

>>654
You can't really do the patron system either with such a collaborative medium, because even if some eccentric guy with money to burn wanted to give someone money to produce an anime HE thought was worth it it's then a matter of guaranteeing none of the couple dozen other staff members are fuckups

>>649
Its because MGX is way less easily digestible than Watamote is, with its at times cold and mysterious (ha) heroine, the surreal imagery, and the inherent weirdness of the central premise.
Watamote is, by contrast, uncontroversial, and since I don't want to start a flame war I'll leave it at that.

I'm glad I watched MyGO as it was airing, it was mediocre but at least the threads didn't really treat it as much more than that for the first half of airing. If I'd watched it after all the niwaka praise it probably would've been a huge disappointment, especially when the main source of praise is the badly written drama.

Uzumaki was probably the best recent disappointment as it was as a group. The first episode set some standards that weren't quite met and it's nice that everyone had to go through it aside from the blind.

Yougen no Chi has 3 chapters left for Volume 4 before the series went on hiatus as far as I'm aware, but I couldn't find raws and the TL group seemed to have dropped this. A shame because I really enjoyed this.

I hope Sukeban Deka is fully translated one day, I prefer it over live action which is mostly it's own thing but I think is all translated.

>>642
Not to mention, they're occupying generals on both 8/a/ and Sharty/a/.
It's probably mostly just the same 30 or so people considering the state of the general prior to 4chan's closure (genuinely, if jannies felt like it a solid week of deleting would've killed /dbs/ for good, that's how dead it was).

>>587
Now that 4chanX works I plan on chilling here even more!
>>642
That's because when 4chan is down the tradition is for everyone to post in the most recently posted-in thread in desuarchive

>You can't enjoy a seasonal show
what

>>645
I never did finish Paranoia Agent, last thing I remember is nip cartman getting walloped

In the 5 days 4head has been down, I have finally caught up on tenchi muyo. Tenchi sexo'd every woman, and even the spaceship. If only we all could learn to be like chadchi, then we could reverse the birthrates and save our beloved image boards from bad janitors and shillposters.

The 2000s were a great time to be a kid

What fansubs should I watch this with? I watched a few episodes back in like 2007 but never finished it, I want to finally do that.

The girls with guns trilogy is what got me to prefer anime with female MCs.

>>236
It's terribly underrated.

Hey anon. No hope you're still around, but how do you feel about Cal? Why did Reiji rush things so much? Really what stopped him from at least checking in once? The Cal was just waiting there while he fled without looking back. Maybe because of Elen? Still that part felt so wrong. And the way Cal appears later tore my heart, it was so sad.

>>214
Sometimes I think about starting Noir again until I remember that I have to listen to that fucking awful OP. Rest of the soundtrack is good though, as usual for Kajiura.

>>514
I'm still here. And I agree, Cal deserved better.
He should have made more of an effort to search for her after the apartment bombing, rather than assuming that she was dead. Perhaps Elen had his focus and the trauma of being reunited with someone he thought was dead while at the same time losing someone else was overwhelming?


It reminds me a little bit of the relationship between Mireille/Kirika/Chloe in Noir. What happened to Chloe in the end was sad, I remember being heartbroken when I first saw it. But one of the key differences being the Noir trio were fulfilling the centuries-old prophecy of a secret society.
And the Phantom of Inferno visual novel came out a year before Noir, so I'm sure that influenced it heavily.
