Okay, NOW it's art.

Not, some fucking tryhard fag was saying we don't respect 'board culture' (Yea Forums) social norms, like being edgy and "offensive, shocking, and outrageous". Don't mind him.

mangalita is my favorite

She's the cutest, no question.

THSI BITCH IS UGLY STOP MAKING THESE FUCKING THREADS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!YOUR MOVIE SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Christian Long
Jordan Sanders
Except that's not what happened. One of you defective cringe-lords attempted to claim that this super-gay hug box was reminiscent of the golden years of Yea Forums.
Which is fucking retarded because you people aren't just hated now you'd be hated at any point in the history of Yea Forums.
Justin Turner

For me it's Alita sitting alone happy in a crowd waiting for Ido with her burrito.

I wonder what Alita's hair routine is in order to get all the floof
Isaiah Morgan
blessed thread
Jayden Perry
she doesn't have any floof in the movie she has boring human hair
Daniel Brown
i will never watch this movie because there's always alita threads shitting up tv :)
Anthony Gonzalez
I saw this film it wasnt very good is the general just here because anita is cute?
Charles Rivera
TDK and Logan take themselves very seriously, and they're some of the best movies ever made. MoS and BvS don't suck because they take themselves too seriously, they suck because Zack Snyder can't into good writing. Shazam doesn't take itself seriously, but it still takes the story seriously, and it works because the story is good.
Levi Hughes
Is it even organic hair? Or did Ido have to call the wig shop?

Nathan Ramirez
Our lord and savior has truly heard our calls.
Wyatt Jones
When can we expect VOD release?
Julian Kelly
I think that's because Weta simulated every strand of hair (instead of clumps) and maybe they hadn't analyzed any hair with that amount of volume in order to be able to simulate it accurately
Nolan Hernandez
haha nice simpsons meme user heres mine
I love alita so much bros
Wyatt Torres
Like we care? if your this petty we dont need you here...
and idk how I feel about flowery Alita but I think I like it...

Soon tm, this the best we have so far. its VERY close to a VOD You can tell apart from the slight tinge it has, the audio is 10/10...

Weta let this movie down on so many levels.

Weta gave us Alita so they're fine in my book even if they didn't quite get it right the first time

You can't protect her forever Ido. She's a WOMAN and needs to be loved

You gotta pick one of these arguments, not both, otherwise you look like a complete hypocritical idiot.
Eli Gray
I hate to be that guy again, but that art sucks. Is that something I would save and repost? NO. Cringy artstyle and it doesn't even get the Damascus blade right.
Luke Young
Really even that doll body?
Isaiah Jenkins
Dude, that shirt is "force your GF to wear"-tier, like that MEGA MILK t-shirt.
Jaxson Ward
Samuel Martinez
I'd have to agree. I mean, it doesn't SUCK, but it is mediocre and a lot of the details are off. I think the concept and organizational design is cooler than the final execution.

Reminder of what the doll body looks like for those of us who have actually seen the movie
James King
Mood:
>Blessed
Dylan Hughes
The doll body looks good on the surface, MUCH better than their re-imagined berzerker body but they just couldn't resist steampunk tick-tock shit under the surface. They were close but they blew it.
Alexander Reed
i would die a happy man from a threesome with these two. would die with a smile
Thomas Cox
Shut up asshole. Its been several threads now you post that same whiny ass negative bait. Fuck off already.

Parker Cooper
>just couldn't resist steampunk tick-tock shit under the surface
Just because it's gold plated doesn't mean it's steampunk I think looks really good especially in motion and in the movie.
I was really love and hate on some of the design choices but I love that doll body to death, absolutely fantastic.
Wyatt Davis
smother me between their breasts
Jace Morales
James Torres
>hate on some of the design choices
what do you hate?
Evan Lopez
>what a redditor thinks an edgy Yea Forums post is supposed to be like: the post
If you look at the pics from the art book they went full steam-punk tick-tock on it. The two worst things ever.
Michael Richardson
My two main complaints: they changed the damascus blade too much and now we'll probably never get the balisong version, and the deckmen need their goggle eyes
Elijah Young
No, I'm being dead serious, edginess aside. The world would be a slightly better place if you weren't here.
Juan Myers
Aaron Roberts
>damascus blade
There is plenty of opportunity for the balisong version in film 3.
Caleb Howard
No, spoiler-user, saying "I don't like this picture" is not bait, and I'm not even sure what fish I would even catch with that. It's my opinion and I don't give a damn if it's negative! Also, it's Friday so bite me. Here's some from the master himself if you need a measuring stick.
Kevin White
buckybro? can you add the glasses on this?
Daniel White
Nice. I've never seen Screwhead art before now. She and Gangsta are my favorite hunter-warriors.
Austin Morales
Tyler Powell
>The world would be a slightly better place if you weren't here.
Because I don't like the finer details of the doll body in your waifu movie? Fuck off back to facebook or reddit or whatever you're trying to fit in and failing badly.
Xavier Hughes
Here you go fren
Jonathan Peterson
I know but given that the damascus blade is exotic URM tech and not just scrap steel I doubt that it could be reforged (or even broken in the first place) and I bet it wouldn't be able to do the neat plasma trick as a balisong
Adam Sanchez
No, because you keep spamming and shitposting in our fucking thread.
We all suck, we're all loser virgins, the movie we like is terrible. Got it. Now leave us the fuck alone and never come back here.
James Robinson
The doll body looks so good, especially in 3D - with moving gears and stuff under the surface.
Chase Murphy
yeah i wanted to image dump something new and hot so i went digging
Blake Green
excellent!
Brody Wood
That's quite a reaction to someone not liking the steampunk gears in the doll body user. Maybe you should clam down and stop being such a fucking fagot. Go post on your tumblr or something.
Gavin Kelly
What exactly is wrong with steampunk within the context?
Eli Stewart
Nobody who isn't a fucking fag likes steampunk and it has no place in a cyperpunk setting.
Xavier Adams
It not so much steampunk as clockpunk. And I think it's cool, as a contrast to the very workaday dieselpunk cyborgs that Ido usually repairs.
Ethan Anderson
Holy fuck, dude. This is supposed to be a /comfy/ non-lewd place. Can't keep that up with you making me pop turbo-boners with shit like this.
Aiden Jones
buckyfren, can you cut this part? the guy the part in red?

Hey fuck it why not put steam punk in ghost in the shell or the matrix?
Jordan Nguyen
Why is it so hard to imagine Ido made it that way because he likes gears?
Eli Sanders
Am I the only one who thinks she's hotter as Screwhead?
Asher Cook
>horrendous /fa/shion
Oh, tyvm. My erection vanished.
Ryan King
Alita doesn't really have a strictly futuristic hard cyberpunk setting though. Most of Iron City's background and technology doesn't look that drastically different from your average modern South American hub.
Zachary Richardson
Why are you bending over backwards to defend the poor decisions of weta digital graphic designers?
Elijah Campbell
>not getting diamond hard erect over a cutie in trashy fashion
you are so gay
Isaac Scott
I don't think it was a poor decision, that's all.
Isaac Morris
Why not? So long as it's done well, it doesn't fucking matter. These genres can blend and overlap. People were skeptical of Blade Runner when it first came out, mixing futuristic sci-fi cyberpunk with an "old and tired film noir" story.
Dylan Sullivan
Ghost in the Shell and the Matrix don't look like this though
Jordan Turner
She looked prettier at the close ups in the bar in the movie, than in real life,
Yeah something about the make up
John Nelson
> the manga didn't have steampunk
>the anime didn't have steampunk
>but some pretentious asshole at weta digital likes steampunk so it's okay to put steampunk in the movie
Hudson Martin
Sorry my patrician taste doesn't allow me to wallow in the mud with your degenerate predilections.
Blake Hughes
That's just a photoshoot. Those arent her real clothes lol. Thats what the photographer wanted.
Matthew Long
YOU WERE SUPPOSTED TO FOCUS ON THE TITS
Logan Howard
Oh, I know. She's still hot, but I'm not nearly as aroused because of the horrible fashion.
I'm picky like that, my man. Hell, a girl could be a solid 10/10, but if she has shit taste in things or doesn't align with my morals and values or is general trash on the inside, my dick retracts and goes concave.
Wyatt Turner
Also it's the partly the hair but mainly the 'tude
Easton Jenkins
Thinking shit doesn't matter is the difference between a classic and forgettable garbage
Carter Hernandez
The manga had a drug transforming you into a werewolf and vampires.
Logan Sanders
Ill dig something else hold on lol
Jackson Diaz
How can you guys still be talking about this mediocore movie. It had potential to be good but everything felt rushed and None if the characters were fleshed out enough for me to care about them, especially the scraper boyfriend guy
Mason Davis
Bruh, what do you want the inside of the doll body to look like?? the terminators?
It didn't look out of place at all, and suited the doll body look.
Owen Clark
I've seen it I don't see any steampunk elements all I see is an unusually color to the inner frame.
I didn't like the Movie's Berserker body or what they did with the Damascus blade or Zalem's underbelly. I really like that pale yet elegant monolithic look it had in the Manga to the super intricate work of art it is in the Movie. I'm kinda torn of Iron City itself part of me wants that super gritty depressing scrapyard were people eat rats and trade body parts from the stalls but the other part of me liked how it resembles a real livable modern day slum city and it's not just another blade runner inspired rainy street illuminated by neon 24/7. The one in the manga looks like that abandoned factory from Robocop copy-pasted a couple hundred times to make a city and while I accept the movie's rendition is more livable and believable I still kinda want that aesthetic.
David Campbell
well they did have to fit two stories into one movie user, so not like they had much time to work with. Unless they made it a 3 hour long drag like endgame.
Luis Barnes
The werewolf thing is plausible. Who can say what's possible with gene manipulation.
There aren't any vampires in this franchise the author is very clear on that.
Henry Edwards
Thinking shit that doesn't matter doesn't matter and thinking shit that does matter does matter matters.
It's classic how forgettable garbage you are.
Tyler Collins
The art book shows the inner workings of the doll body it's cogs and gears galore. You know, things that don't appear in any body in the anime or manga.
Hudson King
Leo Jackson
NO! Stop. The whole point was to keep this /comfy/ and non-lewd. You've done enough.
Benjamin Wood
They don't really show inside the bodies in either the anime or manga and why do they have to copy everything exactly anyway? Nobody's destroying the originals.
Thomas Gray
le epic post! upboated!
Never change guys it's fascinating how out of touch you are.
Lincoln White
FFFFFfffuck.
You're gonna make me leave the thread to go fap.
Elijah Hall
Shut the fuck up Jerome.
Blake Robinson
>They don't really show inside the bodies in either the anime or manga
Confirmed for never seeing either. Are you fucking retarded? Cyborg bodies get ripped apart all over the place and you will never see a gear anywhere. They're simply not a part of kishiros world.
Carson Adams
>thinking I'm Jerome
>all I said was I didn't like the photographer's choice for the trashy clothes Screwhead's actress was wearing
Nice try. Jerome.
Robert Powell
Even if true, I'll take your word for it, from what you see of the internal structure in the movie itself does not look steampunk and I'm not going to get bent out of shape over something you can't even see in the movie itself.
Cooper Thompson
Well this is a adaptation of the manga and anime, so they are allowed some creative freedom to do what they like and in this case WETA Rob and Jim thought that the "steam punky" look was what worked best, And id agree with them.
Parker Howard
These arent lewd. I mean, shes just hot but the pics arent overly lewd.
I love Rosa and all, but screwhead is cool too. And the lewd rosa pics are way more revealing.
Have a fancy screwhead pic
Hudson Martinez
Yep, just like it's plausible for a newborn to be flushed down the toilet and survive all of its childhood on sewer water and rats for sustenance. Nothing very cyberpunk about that, or werewolves though. It's not Ghost in the Shell. There are vampires in the manga, google it.
Adrian Garcia
No, I meant my popping boners is lewd
Chase Roberts
How have you not seen the artbook scans? I don't even come here often and I've seen them. When you've seen the inner workings and you know in the back of your mind it's full of gears, what you can see in the movie looks more steampunk.
You call it creative freedom, some would call it disrespect for the source material.
Thomas Nguyen
Bodies get ripped apart but they're usually so shredded that it's hard to tell how everything goes together and I would be surprised if Kishiro spent that much time working out how everything actually works. The doll body is fully articulated and could move in any way a human does if somebody managed to actually build it.
Camden Green
The author is very adamant that the "vampires" in the manga aren't vampires. I guess you know better than him. My bad.
Carson Stewart
Stop lying Jerome.
Charles Carter
>there aren't any vampires in this franchise
Nathan Campbell
Ok. I understand.
This is the last one, took me a while to dig, ill post it just for appreciation of a great character
Nathan Allen
>using Alita OC and related images in my replies
>Jerome
Hmmmmm
Jaxon Ward
We're down to arguing semantics now? Whatever you want to call them, they are nothing that "belong" in a cyberpunk setting. The author didn't give a fuck because it was never his idea to create a hard cyberpunk setting in the first place.
William Morgan
>wet hair
>simple white tank top
>dat cleavage
THAT'S IT!
...I'll see you all in about 20 min.
Blake Ross
What the fuck do you guys talk about all day long?
Thomas Green
>How have you not seen the artbook scans?
I too don't come to these threads much. I've seen some shitty and blurry pictures people took with their phone but I've as of yet not come across any proper scans where I could make out random sprockets and gears but I don't entirely doubt they're there. From what I could make out the frame and what I recall I saw a frame that was just gold in color and highly intricate, but again I'll take you word for it. I still think you're crazy if just seeing that colors your entire perception of the body in the movie.
Gabriel Wilson
>Kishiro loved the movie is confirmed for having seen it at least 6 times
Bentley Allen
Meet ups.
Isaiah Taylor
I'd almost argue that Gunnm draws more from Mad Max than it does from something like Blade Runner
Jeremiah Torres
so this is a /comfy/ Simpsons thread right bros ?
Nathaniel Thomas
These are the internal mechanisms for the doll body but almost none of them are actually visible in the movie
Owen Cox
slamming black tar heroin and smoking ice at the beach. shitting and puking ourselves at restaurants. setting homeless on fire. etc.
Aiden Gray
They show bodies ripped apart in intricate detail. Unfortunately for you the cyborg body tech in this universe revolved around actuators and artificial muscle fibers NOT steampunk tick tock faggot shit and there are mountains of evidence of such.
were you two dropped on your head as infants? There is an information table in one of the books describing the differences between vampires and type V mutants.
Asher Richardson
So rapid DNA mutation transforming a regular human into a werewolf in mere seconds and type V(ampire) mutants are acceptable breaks from the traditional cyberpunk setting, but gears in a doll body is going too far?
Camden Adams
Are you sure you saw it saw it or did you just watch the camrip?
Cameron Jenkins
Just because most of the cyber bodies work that way doesn't mean that Ido can't build something elegant and detailed for his daughter instead. Why does everything have to look the same or fit inside your narrow definition of what cyberpunk is?
Adam Gonzalez
cute
Justin Clark
They're much easier to see in 3D and when you sit close to the screen.
Hunter Lopez
>live for hundreds or thousands of years without aging
>drink blood
>superhuman abilities
>infected through bite
>literally called vampires
He may call them Type V Mutants but they're obviously vampires.
Jayden Davis
Your argument is retarded. You can't distinguish between things that exist in this fictional universe and things that don't. You might as well be arguing for doctor manhattan to exist in star wars.
Why would ido equip his own daughter with outdated inferior technology that can only be repaired with time consuming custom made parts?
Cameron Murphy
It is easier to see the detail but the white parts on the outside aren't transparent and she only ever opens the chest pieces so the internal mechanisms are mostly obscured.
Josiah Green
This also describes ghouls though
Chase Lopez
>forgetting the conversation between farrel and vilma where he lays out that you'd have to be a moron to think vilma is a vampire
Juan Walker
Ghouls can't turn others into ghouls, vampires can.
It's been a while since I read LO, which page is that?
Brody Cox
Why weren't there shapeshifters in Blade Runner? Or telekinetic mutants in Ghost in the Shell? Those so-called cyberpunk works didn't understand the basics!
Nolan Stewart
Rumor: TSG Entertainment Finance LLC (one of the companies credited on Alita) may have provided a stop-loss position on Alita: Battle Angel in return for preferential rights to profits on any sequels. Among the major investors in TSG are Chip Seelig, Magnetar Capital in the US and Bona Film Group (Polybona) from China. That doesn't mean we'd have gotten a sequel with a 200 million flop, but it also might provide robustness against a slight loss. Trying to get better sourcing on this.
Tyler Ortiz
You're the fucking expert lecturing me on gunnm you tell me dumbass.
>Ghouls can't turn others into ghouls, vampires can.
With a less than 1% success rate
Gavin Perez
>they're not robots they're droids
>they're not androids they're replicants
>they're not zombies they're ghouls/geeks/zachs/walkers etc.
Adrian Powell
>Ghouls can't turn others into ghouls, vampires can.
I dont know, i think they can.
Vampires are never alive either, if these creatures "live" for hundreds or thousands of years, they definitely arent vampires.
Isaac Perry
That inner frame does look like they built a body out of oversized pocket watch mechanisms. It'd look fine if you took out all those seemingly useless fly wheels. Then again I think the goal of the internal design was to just fill out the body with innerbody with detail and the viewer was never really going to see anything of this up-close since in the movie we don't see any of the most egregious areas.
Evan Young
You probably think you're clever but the author outlined the differences between vampires and type v muntants
Connor Rivera
They should have left alita bald
Hudson Scott
At any rate it's yet another example of some stupid cunt at weta digital injecting their own preferences into things where it's not warranted.
Jacob Mitchell
I dont want no chemo Alita.
Jose Ross
They are what would be eventually called vampires in-universe because they fit the folklore description to a T. Even if they're not technically vampires, anyone who discusses what they are will refer them to vampires for convenience and no matter how many extra characters you use to refer to them, they're as opposed to cyberpunk as you can get, being organisms that don't rely on technology to enhance their bodies.
Owen Hernandez
The author specifically made fun of dick heads like you saying that they're vampires. I'm aghast at your lack of self awareness.
Easton Myers
>he thinks James Cameron didn't approve every minor detail
Dominic Perez
And let's not forget biopunk Venus. Actually, the sooner we forget, the better.
Bentley Wilson
The vampire arc was way too long and sucked for the most part. My legs fell asleep trying to power through it on the toilet. When I inevitably reread everything I will skip all of that noise.
Brayden Garcia
James Cameron had to approve basically everything that Weta designed and large portions of it were already designed by him back in 2005. Like I get that you don't like it but the decision wasn't necessarily made at Weta.
Hudson Miller
>when your parents put 10x CBD in your drink
Connor Hernandez
Okay but they're still not cyberpunk in the slightest. If Kishiro didn't give enough fucks to introduce totally-not-vampires type V(ampire) mutants in his setting, then I can refer to them as vampires.
Carter Taylor
There's a difference between powering through it on the toilet and reading the chapters as they were written while discussing them with other fans.
Isaac Bailey
I don't think Jim was like "dude I love this design but it needs more fly wheels we'll never see"
Jason Sullivan
I like biopunk Venus a lot even if it does seem out of place in Alita, the crazy one to me is the grey goo on Mercury turning into a gigantic fighting dick monster.
Luis Adams
I think there are some cultural clashes and the author doesnt understand he made vampires and doesnt understand the details about vampire myths.
Michael Parker
>hurr durr jc approved every shit decision
Prove it.
Matthew Bennett
Well I doubt that WETA was given free reign to design the Alita body's they would of made some mocks based on Cameron's specification's and then him Jon and RR would of approved the best ones...
>Thinking some un-paid intern at WETA got to design the main character of one of JC movies....
Nathaniel Campbell
I think he understands just fine and made his own sci-fi twist on "vampires" He literally mocked the idea of calling them vampires in the exchange between vilma and farell. Hes being meta. They don't give a shit about garlic or crucifixes, they don't need blood to survive, they can't shape shit etc.
Luke Brown
- Night of the Living Dead: passing comet reanimates people who have died
- 28 Days Later: blood-borne virus causes people to become uncontrollably violent and feral
These are wildly different from each other and neither one actually uses the word zombie in it but they're still zombie movies.
Colton Young
So they ARE vampires,
Just his own take? Like the Twilight movies.
Carson Rivera
28 days later are called infected. The infected, they are never zombies
Ryan Ortiz
What's wrong with you people? The author took great pains on two occasions to stress that they aren't vampires. They're just immortal.
Jayden Cooper
I can't prove Cameron approved Hugo's casting or his character arc, which to me is a more egregious issue of the movie than whatever variation of punk Alita's doll body is.
What is not up to debate is that Kishiro loved the movie and called it a faithful adaptation of his work. That's something you have to deal with, unless you want to fly to Japan and make him admit on tape he was forced to lie under duress and he actually thinks the movie is SHIT.
Justin Stewart
Hmmm... Liang Xing usually makes nsfw versions of all pics for his/her patreons supporters
Colton Rodriguez
admit it alitafags, the reason this general is not on the first page right now is because you're all busy shitposting chernobylmemes
Nathaniel Hernandez
>hurr durr kishiro said it was good
What the fuck is he gonna do? say it's bad? That would be a bad business decision. Also, we're talking about a guy who said that all he cared about was seeing motorball adapted to the big screen and that alita didn't even have to be in the movie.
Cooper Sanders
You wish, user.

The Count from Sesame Street
All of them are still vampires.

If he didn't like it, why did he see it 6+ times?
Cameron Richardson
zombie.fandom.com
>Boyle and Garland frequently call it a post apocalyptic, horror and zombie film, commenting on scenes that were specific references to George A. Romero's original Dead trilogy
Dominic Brooks
and yet the author goes out of his way to mock people like you who label type v mutants as vampires.
If someone made a big budget hollywood movie about your lifes work how many times would you see it?
Christian Scott
Yes, he could have totally said something along these lines. Japanese are known for that type of passive aggressive criticism, even more so when dumb gaijins disrespect their source material, but we're going on a tangent here.
If he at best didn't care, why are you pretending to be his spokesperson?
Christopher Rogers
Why V
Why v mutants?
V as in vampire? This author is legit retarded.
Wyatt Cox
>Jerome couldn't possibly save images to be used for false flag trolling
You aren't fooling anyone Jerome.
Samuel White

Ok.
Colton Bennett

Thomas Morris
In what universe is he going to say he didn't like the movie when it goes against his economic interests and he's on record saying that all he wanted to see was motorball in live action?
Dominic Ross
This is just Jerome doing D&C again.

You are not a true /alita/ poster unless you've been called Jerome at least once.

Trips chose Jerome as the name for one specific poster. But we are all Jerome on this blessed day.
Isaac Kelly
Jeromimo
Justin Gomez
There have been long, repeat-offender trolls over the threads. One of the worst ones in the early /ABAG/ days was dubbed "Jerome". From thence forth, any such anti-Alita dedicated troll (not just someone who didn't like the movie and shared an honest opinion that they thought it sucked, but constant shitposting and spamming and baiting and the rest) was too named "Jerome". Classic boogeyman and othering tactics. Just like "kulak" in the Soviet Union.
Noah Rodriguez
Silence, Jerome.
Grayson Cooper
In the universe I just described, where Japanese authors are not afraid to roast westerners who pretend to understand the essence of their work better than themselves - does this remind you of anyone?
Even if Kishiro only cared about the motorball part being adapted, or rather in the specific case he only cared about that, why would he give a single fuck about how the doll body is portrayed?
Ayden Roberts

And yet the author says caerula isn't a vampire. I'm very sorry user but I'm going to have to side with the author on this one.
Colton Garcia
you're sperging out so hard I don't know or care what you're babbling about anymore user.
Eli Cox
That's alright, I don't think anyone was under the illusion you wanted a real discussion and this was not shitposting for the sake of shitposting. It did inform some of the movie-only anons here that there are vampires in the manga, so I'll consider that a win.
Jason Moore
You just lost the argument to him. This non reply might as well be a white flag
Bentley Martinez
this guy hit it right on the head. giving a concept a snazzy new name does not change what it is. regardless of any autistic foot stamping that it’s not. they’re fucking vampires and there’s no arguement against that.
Juan King
using your logic all you need to do to win any argument is post something so garbled and fucked up that the other person can't be bothered dealing with them anymore.
Owen Carter
Julian Wright

Hunter Ortiz
Refute his babbling
Lucas Smith
This thread needs more cute Alitas. I'll try to catch one.
Caleb Martinez
>>they're not androids they're replicants
That one at least made sense, since a lot of people think of things like C3P0 when they hear "android".
Lucas Hughes
Tyler Hughes
Where is everyone? This thread is whack
Isaiah Price
Probably out there socializing like a bunch of normalfags. It's Friday night.
Jordan Stewart
This isn't a job. I'm not under any obligation to decipher the fevered ramblings of a madman when it's easier to do something else.
Joseph Murphy
>i cant counter argue. I lost
Luke Mitchell
>when it's easier to do something else.
You just spent an hour arguing with strangers on a Taiwanese tapestry-weaving board about the proper denomination of vampires-but-not-really of a Chinese comic book written by some guy who was probably snorting lines of coke the entire time.
Let's just say your time is no more valuable than mine.
Nathaniel Butler
I spent one hour here. You spend every minute of your free time here don't make me laugh
Tell you what, if you can translate that retards gibberish into a cohesive argument I'll consider responding.
Juan Peterson
Yeah plus they're organic, as soon as I posted I realized synths would have been a better example
Carter Morris
He's Chinese not Japanese and Japan's drug laws are extremely strict
Luke Murphy
Edit: I meant he's Japanese not Chinese
Isaac Campbell
Forget it movie newfags aren't very good at hiding their disrespect and scorn for the guy who spent 3 decades of his life writing the character they've devoted their lives to. It's kinda disgusting.
Jace Ramirez
I keep cropping manga panels into squares and it's extremely satisfying
Julian Stewart
a lot of people like me are just lurking, trying to come up with oc, like this gem i created last night when things were getting a little too comfy
Dominic Jones
Yes, I'll get on it in a bit.
Julian Turner
>the absolute state of this thread
Come on Alita frens. Stop giving the trolls (yous). Their bait is fairly obvious so it isn't hard to ignore. Install 4chanX and learn to hide and filter if their shitposts get to you that much.
Nolan Ross
>tfw I'd take this /comfy/ "vampire, not vampire" autist screeching back and forth over Jerome-posting any day
POST YOUR VAMPALITAS
Gavin Brooks
How can it be comfy if someone's getting stabbed
Landon Wright
that'sthejoke.jpg
Cooper Richardson
i said things were getting TOO comfy, i had to put a stop to that
Aaron Hernandez
Comfy hours soon vamplita hours follow
Nathan Foster
What's autistic about it? Kishiro has flat out stated absolutely that they're not vampires while a bunch of stupid cunts who think they know better than the guy who wrote the whole thing attempt to argue otherwise.
Angel King
*destroys your traditional cyberpunk expectations*
Jaxon Moore
>Install 4chanX and learn to hide and filter if their shitposts get to you that much.
How does that work?
Evan Price
imagine if she actually drained your blood everyday and threatened to kill you if you ever left haha that would be wild
William Nguyen
We're not saying that's wrong. We're saying Kishiro is wrong, or if he's not wrong he sure is autistic for thinking that this fictional creature he's created that's 75% like vampires and is marked with a fucking "V" wouldn't draw constant comparisons to vampires, and I'm saying you're autistic for also not getting that.
James Allen
She can as long as she sucks from my scholagble
Julian Sanders
May I point out a couple of posts that got lost in the argument about Space Vampires?
Adam Phillips
The author was trying to be a contrarian and try to say that he created a new creature that already exists.
What a fucking retard
Thomas Garcia
Okay, so you fucking agree with us.
They ARE vampires and he's being a troll.
Eli Davis
>75% like vampires
Except they share only one trait with vampires, immortality.
Ayden Williams
you're welcome here anytime friend
Xavier Lewis
Post yfw /alita/twinkfaggots get a gun pulled on them at the next meetup
Wyatt Thomas
Not buckyfren, but I got ya!
Jackson Nguyen
that's pretty out there haha I mean who would want something like that to happen
I'm thinking about it tho but just for laughs haha
Benjamin Myers
>mfw I can shoot better than most criminals who might pull a gun on me
Jason Davis
wholesome smile
Jeremiah Anderson
You're reddit-tier passive aggressiveness, drawn out semantics, "heal" bushit and gay cringey alita edits make people hate you more you know that right
Grayson Lopez
the problem is mostly that defending yourself is basically illegal in commiefornia.
Lucas Clark
Inb4 you correct me for a single "Your" misspelling and use that as your reddit-tier argument
Bentley White
That reminds me doesn't one of these mentally ill faggots own a pistol grip AR in california?
Camden Allen
Thank you this is really great!
Luke Morales
You love us enough to keep coming back for more.
Brody Bennett
Literally impossible since there are no gins in california. Literally not possible
John Miller
The problem is you've never set foot in California, your sense of reality is based on memes and stereotypes, and you have no idea what you're talking about.
Christopher Gutierrez
See:
Blake Morales
you'll miss us when we're gone. i know i will
Gavin Sanders
A sad cute
Brayden Clark
>seeing people be nice to each other and create funny pictures to share makes me a furious bitter piece of hateful shit.
Y I K E S
Dominic Lee
I bet "love" is the last thing any girl has for you twink faggots. Post the real meetup pic again. And not some rando /k/ meetup or the gay alita edit one, I mean the real one you got fucking scared of and took down. Yet you're fine with putting up the random gun meetup one though right? Lying snakes. Nothing gets me more excited than when I spot snakes like you. All the qualms and hesitations disappear.
William Walker
Damn he cute
Benjamin Collins
This reminds me of dragon ball where characters would move so fast they looked like they're in two places at once.
Chase Rodriguez
This is one of the rare cases of an author being stubborn and/or incorrect
Tyler Robinson
No worries fren!
Christian Howard
You,
see:
Handguns, long guns, shotguns, RPGs, all legal in California. They even issue CCW permits.
Samuel Gutierrez
do us all a favor and be healed
Tyler Diaz
Tyler Torres
>i hate everything and everyone around me so i need to annonymously insult people on Yea Forums because im too much of a coward to insult people in real life.
Yikes dude
Ian Williams
featured rifles are just fine if you got them before 2018. probably didn’t say anything about that on r/thedonald though did it.
Caleb Robinson
It's literally "Oh I just bought my 3rd ticket thid week haha" "Get healed by some shit chinese edit" and low content as fuck with super high reply ratio to poster ratio always around 40'ish posters everytime. You're not nice it's fake af with no sense of decent humor. The kind of cringe that gets beaten the shit out of and no on cares after.
Asher Cruz
post wrist, fatboy.
Jose Bennett
>Nothing gets me more excited than when I spot snakes like you. All the qualms and hesitations disappear.
Wow, you really are a seething sperg. We don't want to add to your fap collection, that's why. Go find some other spunk material, you faggot. Why should we prove anything to you? Fuck right off.
Xavier Rodriguez
Camden Lewis
I'm fairly sure the pistol grip was illegal in cali long before 2018 and I don't reddit.
If you're being that vague wolverine and nagato yuki are vampires too.
Brody Reyes
I'd post the pic again but given that you're just going to deny that it's us or have some kind of fit I'm not going to bother in the hopes that you'll finally leave the thread
Nathan Garcia
Is that like a rainbow zebra pattern? trippy.
Gabriel Ross
I fucking live in SoCal and have all my damn life with 90% spics in this area and have gone to LA alot too. No. Fucking. One talks about guns here. People look at you like you're a shooter if anyone does. It is in fact liberal af in most places here. You fucking moron.
Levi Davis
Bentley Martinez
during the last meetup only 3 of us were able to show up
Kayden Johnson
Some people are legit nice. VA has always been niceand friendly.
Some of the cute posters and photoshop posters are legit nice. Always nice.
The memes are not meant to be hilarious or anything. They are just silly pics to entertain ourselves
Jack Gonzalez
Alita a cute
Blake Garcia
Some user colored it, they also made one with a leopard print but I didn't like that one as much
Jaxson Butler
This is probably the best pic of jashugan. Filling his shoes is gonna be difficult if they get a sequel.

Oliver White
Based on your attitude I'd say nobody really wants to talk to you in the first place
Hudson Gonzalez
lol, go to Compton, mhu nig, see how much they talk about guns.
Ever watch Mythbusters? Remember all the guns and grenades and explosives they had?
BASED IN FUCKING SAN FRANCISCO.
You can get every gun you want and more, it just might take a little longer and you might have to do more paperwork than other states, but that's all.
Andrew Watson
>They are just silly pics to entertain ourselves
But at what cost man, at what cost? Any visitor to these threads will see these "silly" "entertaining" "memes" and recoil in horror
Carter James
How come Jashugan is such a chad?
Wyatt Collins
I bought a ptr91 and an ar in 2016. Both with pistol grips. Any features besides a folding stock were just fine as long as it had the (removable) bullet button device.
Zachary Anderson
>I looove you~

Samuel Perez
dumbass all the white areas of California are heavy with gun owners. you just happen to live one of the 3rd world shithole strongholds that are dragging this state down.
Brayden Bailey
Is baking bread cyberpunk? Do they use a cyberpunk oven with cyberpunk flour?
Thomas Richardson
I cried at this fucking scene because im a fag
Lincoln Brown
Christopher Wilson
Oven is solar powered and has gears and sheet
Liam Thomas
Cameron Myers
if you're claiming the pistol grip AR was legal in 2016 and another post claims they were legal in 2018 why does the california grip AR even exist?
Noah Sanders
Well I already baked it
Noah Cook
