Unfortunately your proposition, from my point of view, reads like "if you don't like X fix X", and I'd be glad to do just that only I don't know how.

I used to keep track of deathcore, but new youtube algorithms suck and I don't know the gathering places. I only remember chugcore productions which I used to check out once in a while on youtube. Do you have any useful info for my case?

Very well might kill myself soon, but that might be due to the fact I got two hours of sleep, which is probably. I know for a fact I haven't felt happiness really for close to seven years, rare moments here and there excluded, I suppose.

Filtration failure Friend 7/6/25 (Sun) 21:03:39 No.4599 [Reply]

Its Sunday evening.. Sazae-san syndrome sets in. I decide to use what little time I have left to enjoy something but what? Endless amount of stuff to watch, endless amount of stuff to see. I play one thing for 10 minutes, get bored. Okay, let's play a game, I trawl through the library and nothing feels appealing, 15 minutes later I feel like I've wasted my time. Endlessly cycling through content, reading news articles, watching random youtube videos. I can stream all the anime I want, but why can't I just pick one? Scrolling, scrolling through an endless sea of content. This is how my last few hours of freedom end. Overloading my brain with more content than it can process leaving me unable to enjoy anything. I know I'm not the only one feeling this. But how do we overcome it?
I just want something to enjoy.

>>4599
>how to overcome
You need to take a break from the computer. Take a whole year away from the computer, you may not use it for entertainment. This will force you to enter a "normal" state where you can enjoy things and also get bored.

In fact, avoid all digital entertainment in this year.
I know it sounds like a lot, but its a way to cure yourself, I promise.

I dont mean for you to ditch "screens" anon
Just avoiding doing things like checking your phone for no reason or spending your free time on the computer. Try doing activities that do not involve screens when you're free, stuff that let's you move, talk to real people, see real places, etc.

I too work on the computer ^^

I've been avoiding youtube all day. I think that's the main mind poison. I've been trying to restrict the tabs I open too. There's not much to do in my town. Its a pretty desolate place. I went for a walk though. I still feel kinda overwhelmed though.

otaku disillusionment Friend 5/5/25 (Mon) 14:33:05 No.4079 [Reply]

I feel like I'm loosing interest in otaku related media and culture. I'm just exhausted by everything and rarely find anime I like. At the same time, I've slowly become more and more interested in traditional Japanese and East Asian culture, folklore, and religion. I think I'm burned out and need some recommendations. The problems I'm having are:

1. Repetitive themes, plot structures, and character types. It feels like every genre has been done to death at this point.

2. Lack of artistic skill. A lot of anime looks and feels the same. There's less stylistic diversity, lack of attention to setting the scene, framing shots well, just telling the story visually etc. I don't blame the animators for this. Its the conditions they work under.

3. Immorality and lack of meaning. Now this is a tough one. A lot of anime is like porn that's just meant to titillate you visually or satiate your need for genre slop. Its like a big greasy hamburger and who doesn't want one of those once in a while? But man cannot live on burgs alone, unless he's American. A lot of otaku slop feels spiritually worthless. There's no real reflection on important life themes or cause for reflection or really anything. A lot of anime and games half ass it resulting in neither a sleazy hamburger or a well made nutritious meal but a god awful hybrid.

I need recommendations /kind/.

Sorry for triple post. So hard to find decent copies of that old Japanese stuff now. I also highly suggest most everything produced by FMW. Finally found a channel that has the exploding ring match without horrible American commentary: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=doSM6OIRXME

Back then they used to bring in a lot of gaijin stars and put them in insane matches with Japanese guys. Barbed wire for ring ropes. TNT in the ring. Thumb tack boards and lots of other crazy things. It has gotten really overboard these days and I won't watch it anymore. But that older stuff is always either comedy or brutal gold.

The non-hardcore stuff is really good too. Generally better than everything that was going on in the west until the late 90s. Most of the things that got hot in the mid-late 90s in America had been going on in Japan for over a decade by that point. They pretty much just ripped off what the 2 major (and later 3 major) Japanese wrestling promotions had been doing for years.

Japanese TV in general is a mind fuck most of the time. I can understand why it's still so popular compared to the west where it's mostly re-runs and reality tv now. I can't stand watching TV in my own country anymore but even regular day time talk show stuff in Japan is still pretty interesting. Game shows are fun too.

I went through this years ago, my solution was moving-on from anime to manga, because manga has way more variety and interesting stories. Why don't you give manga a shot?

Stuff like dorohedoro, dai dark, usogui, berserk, firepunch, BLAME!, beastars and idk a ton more of mangas have nice stories.

Plus by the time you grow out of manga and into light novels and normal novels, you will already have some new good animes to enjoy.
I only found out about Frieren like a month ago, before that I had my head buried in a pile of manga and the overworld lligh novel. It's nice to enjoy things, just make sure your 'meals' are varied, or you'll grow sick of the same thing over and over!

>>4568
I think you're right about this. There's tons of great manga out there. Too much to keep up with really. I'm very happy with how much stuff is being made. But I struggle to keep up with the manga I'm reading too. I'll be slow to keep up with new issues or something will happen in life and I'll go on a hiatus that goes from a few months to years. There's so much stuff I need to catch up on. I really like discussing stuff and following conversation on things. Nowadays, it seems the fandom are just utterly brain dead. You can't have a serious conversation about anything and they gravitate to the most vapid material.

Friend 7/6/25 (Sun) 19:25:58 No.4597

>>4592
Oh but you don't really need to keep up with the manga if you don't have the time, I mean, fandoms don't exist anymore so what's the point?

Unless you have friends to discuss the manga with, you can enjoy it at your own pace.
Since the fandoms are braindead indeed, I just find myself writing about the mangas I've read instead of discussing it with people. It gets lonely at times (especially compared to the past) but I guess that's our current reality.

Hopefully it changes in a few years!

/kind/ streaming Friend 5/7/24 (Tue) 20:03:17 No.1462 [Reply][Last 50 Posts]

Heyya,

there is a new iteration of /kind/ again! To celebrate it, its planed to stream some show again. This time, everyone here should vote on what will be streamed. The options are:

- Sōsō no Frieren - Laid-back, but also sad slice of life story about an elf-girl realising she will outlive every human around her.
- Scavengers Reign - SciFi animated show that follow survivors of a space ship wreck that now have to survive on an alien planet and adapt to its unique flora and fauna.
- Hilda - Bluehaired girl lives through various adventures vaguely inspired by Scandinavian lore. Very beautiful.

Just post which show should be watched and if possible also prefered timezone, to make planning a little bit easier.

The first streams should start this weekend so (2024-05-11/12). The exact time will be set on friday, for now its planed to stream each day for one hour.

Welcome back /kind/!

Have you done anything /kind/ recently? Tell us about it! It doesn't have to be anything spectacular, either. For example, lately my father has been repainting the fence, but it's very tedious and time-consuming to scrape all the paint off so I told him I'd take over so he could focus on more important work around the house.

I cleaned up al local pond, all by myself!
It took three days, and I had to swim a bit to catch all the junk, but I managed, and the last day there were even children playing at the pond.

I also found a tiny plushie in the pond, I think the pond spirits gift it to me like a present, but I'm really just happy to help keep a nice place nice for longer
