Feels like yesterday.

Sometimes I feel like half of Yea Forums went to some social shitholes like discord considering how fucking lame Yea Forums became. The only fast threads are the generic shounen ones, almost everything else dies within an hour. Hell even many episode threads I visit die on the airing day of the respective anime.

Already a thing.

>literally a late Oldfag (2006/07)
I will never forget the time when I looked up to the oldfags on this board. As something that I will never be and now I am exactly that.

2010 was 9 years ago. The Yea Forums now compared to the Yea Forums then are so vastly different you would think it was a different website. I honestly feel like 2011 was a sort of climax for the old Yea Forums.

Attached: 1323542576171.jpg (430x615, 274K)

Yeah same. 2011 was the last year that I felt was okay. The next years had a few series related highlights but that's it and with 2015 everything went to absolute shit and the Yea Forums of 2018+ isn't even Yea Forums anymore. The native culture doesn't exist anymore or only in the minds of the very few oldfags that are still active on here. The rest are phonefag kids and social fags that happen to watch some anime series from time to time.

You guys ever look at really old ass threads on the archives? I have recently been randomly browsing through threads from 2008 and it is weird as shit to see, really makes me miss those times.
It really is a mindfuck to see people posting their age back then and then realizing how old they are now. Like some guy saying he was 25 being fucking 36 now.

I noticed a severe increase in frogposts and the like around mid way last year. What the fuck happened? It's like we're being raided daily now.

That's something I really fucking miss. This fun community stuff doesn't exist anymore. The last anime that only remotely did again that was KlK and that was fucking 2014.

Many of then are from Yea Forums

This combined with the gook allowing reddit to come here in droves and allowing cancer to fester killing off all the Yea Forums culture. Yea Forums is also hit pretty hard by the resurgance of anime in the mainstream with netflix and all the "memes" that are out today getting passed around by the normalfags.

Yea Forums is an extremely fragmented community where many of the its users post to only a single thread on the board. I still support the decision to ban generals.

FSN. I borrowed the DVDs from a friend and liked it (yes, DEEN) wanted more Fate, found the Velox comics that led me here.

Community became to large and anime is to easy to access. Back in the day we had to wait for sub groups to drop the subs which was a board wide event at the same time there was much more investment in watching shows you had to download it early and give it the 3 episode rule so you could participate in the threads with Yea Forums without getting spoiled out the ass. You would get run out on a post for even daring to stream here because the quality of screencaps were expected to be good. I feel that is another thing lost. No one communicates with images on the image board anymore its all essays about stupid ass shit.

I think the biggest lose of all though is the slang and lingo of Yea Forums. The language of Yea Forums is gone everyone here talks like a normalfag every post is the same normalfag garbage.

Man THIS. Hell, today most on here even say "normie". That's what I meant. The Yea Forums or Yea Forums culture doesn't exist anymore, it's dead. Streams and dubs are okay and people attack you if you say you aren't interested in a social life or a partner because you prefer anime and are faithful to your waifu. Hell even people who don't have a waifu don't even pretend to have one nowadays. Today the only thing that makes us any different from Twitter is how this board works.

Man I remember how a drew that Gilgamesh version of that. I don't even have that image anymore.
I did so much OC and edited shit back then I miss those times, it was so fucking fun. But we don't have any iconic anime reaction pics anymore.

Another aspect lost was the "you had to be there" part. When there were no easy archives, you had to be in a thread that was "full of win" or at least read some of the screencaps later on (again in a thread that was rapidly falling off the server).

>You would get run out on a post
I miss when people actually attempted to make it clear to newfags that YOU the outsider needed to spend time acclimating to how the board is, instead of just showing up fresh and expecting everyone to put up with your shit.
That's what really did us in, one board after the other. The onslaught of newfags came too fast for each of them to be pushed to lurk, and they brought with them the terrible community-destroying sensibilities of the social media era.

Pretty much this. All the Nazi and nigger shit 2008ish was more "for teh lulz", more shock value than actual ideology and activism. Then GG and etc. happened, and gradually faggots became interested in pushing their boring political shit on boards about manga and video games and hentai.

mainstream was a bad word to use. it was already mainstream, more like there weren't a huge population of posers who don't actually care. the same goes for memes. 12 years ago or so I'd spout memes at school, edgy old memes like babyfuck and people would just give me blank stares. once I saw a japanese kid in a shirt with the japanese character pedobear is based off of slashing ronald mcdonald with his claws and even he had no idea what if was. he just bought it randomly in japan. now they're everywhere especially in high school. makes me feel ahead of the curve in a weird way.

God I wish I could go back to that time. Even though I was an angsty, passive, lazy, arrogant, unsociable, humorless sperglord and there was so much to learn and fix about me, I still had so much fun here. I felt alive back then and I miss it so much. Even though I've grown up so much since then I feel dead inside, I've lost too many things and I just live each day like a worthless zombie

I didn't watch k-on or haruhi until a few years ago. it's funny because I know a ton of anime by name and the characters but have never watched them.

I found it through Code Geass because gg had big mouths basically. I didn't think much of it and forgot about it really until I saw this image posted in another MSN or Yahoo group I was using back then. Then I was here to stay.

Never thought I'd see that animated again at one point

I hate these threads because everyone focuses too much on the bad and fail to appreciate all the good we still have.

If there's one shining, silver lining is that we live in extremely interesting times and there's always going to be more new anime, manga, things to talk about and enjoy and argue about with Yea Forums. Also, it's fun seeing how general anime art styles change throughout the years. You can definitely tell a show was made in the 00s and you can tell when a show was made in the 10s based solely on the designs of the characters.

I'm also happy fujoshi didn't overrun the industry and that battle harem fucking died.

I'd known about Yea Forums since 2008 but never really started using it until mid-2010

oldfag "discussions" is as old as when humans learned to talk.

I like how in the modern era, this theory has been debunked and that flat chests are actually flat, but the closer a chest is to the perfect 90 degree ratio is in equal measure proportional to how best that girl is. In fact, one could even argue the girl in pic related is nowhere near appropriately flat enough.

I noticed this too. After k-on, the industry changed significantly.

Moe-blobs became a lot rarer, isekai started to emerge after Sword Art Online exploded. Madoka and Attack on Titan came and then a wave of much more creative, darker anime came. Then I think a whole wave of newfags came as western artists like that (I came here for things like Darker than Black, Black Lagoon, Ghost in the Shell, Death Note, etc - that's just what westerners are into)
2016/17 were rediculously good years of anime 2bh, it seemed to balance that with Japanese moe. You had stuff like Made in Abyss.

I think going forward, we can expect more cute girls in uncute situations doing cute things, and the moe girls of the past are going to be just a bit more vulgar and honest than in the previous decade, given how popular girls like Takagi, Nagatoro, Tomoko, Ueno, etc. are.

I can't wait to see how perverted we can get as the Olympics loom overhead.

It's how you teach culture to newfags. A board needs culture as much as it needs challenges to the culture.
Too little communication of the culture happened in two periods:
First - the 2010-12 period.
Second - the 2016-18 period.

Both had inundations of newfags that really only understood the board after a few years.... even then barely.
I really like seeing how internet boards and forums change and develop. It's like watching a child grow into something.

Newfags these days just refuse to lurk. I lurked for 2 years before I started posting

moot largely gave up on the boards around the 2010-12 period, which didn't help.

It was 10x more bitter than it is today. Most of the site were teens in angst having issues with girl attention.

Much of the political posts are a reaction to SJWs infesting western media. Merely look at the state of western comics, cartoons, games. It's constant pandering, virtue signaling, and shoving political ideologies.

I got here seriously in fall 2010, after being a Yea Forums and Yea Forumstard since late 2008. 2009 I watched some anime, mainly Cardcaptor Sakura and Yu Yu Hakusho. By summer 2011 I was taking Japanese classes and Yea Forums was my homeboard (and yes I lurked until I had watched 2400 hours of anime).

I don't post on Yea Forums much anymore but I do lurk. Having a real job really sucks the life out of me and I mostly read books when I'm free and sober, and all other times I'm either sleeping, at work, or drinking to numb the pain of working with idiots all day. If I don't drink I wind up shitposting on other Yea Forums boards until way too late at night and then I'm all fucked up at work.

I still love you faggots though. 2013 was a great year. I was the one who first recognized the author of Log Horizon was in our thread and pointed it out.

If you're really concerned about localization, learn nip for fucks sake.

Do you think that anime will be immune? Japanese-made games intended primarily for a Japanese audience are getting censored because of the west. You already have some politicians trying to ban stuff like loli in Japan. It's only time before it throughly infects anime as well.

It is. I don't think you understand how Japanese anime companies work.

Japanese anime is focused on the Japanese audiences unlike Japanese video game companies who need to take the West into consideration.

This isn't even true anymore. Anime is being increasingly globalized. Studios are already trying to appeal to the west. Hell look at Netflix for example.

No, it's not. Stop fucking talking. Netflix is trying to create west appealing anime. KyoAni on the other hand is not doing anything of the sort.

I never said they were. Studios are parterning with Netflix to help market their shows to the west. You cannot deny that there are multiple studios who are also focused on the west when creating their shows.

>muh kyoanus is safe and pure

>Studios are parterning with Netflix to help market their shows to the west.
Nigger, you do not know how the anime industry works at all. The studio makes the anime, they don't decide where it gets aired at.

2013 was the Year when Love Live, Idolm@ster and Aikatsu joined forces to save anime through Idol Anime.

Honestly I thought it would grow slightly more similar to Yea Forums. I never thought streaming would take off the way it did, bringing in so much casual scum.

Sorry you find girls holding hands and blushing threatening user, but that doesn't mean buttfury is a reasonable response to the content.

I only used KyoAni as an example. The majority of Japanese studios are going to continue to pander to their main audience. That's not going to change because unless you have Netflix footing the bill for an anime, it's financial suicide to produce an anime for the western market instead of your own market.

I'm glad that at least you're doing well. I'm in a similar position, but the only thing we can be is positive right? There's plenty of things to look forward to. Like new Madoka stuff and to find out who wins in Toubun.

2008, newfag....

and for once, newfag is not so derogatory....

Except Netflix is helping to produce multiple series. Stop pretending every animation studio is focussed on a Japanese audience as well. This is objectively false.

I feel almost nothing for the nostalgia for early 2010's and before and I think I'm glad since I don't have to feel sad. Just came here turn of the year 2017.

solely on a japanese audience*

>...
Yes it is.

Don't worry, you'll make up for it by feeling sad later. It comes to us all.

Who the fuck cares if they produce a couple of series? It doesn't fuck change anything. It's not changing the market. Anime and video games are not the same. There is no Sony of Anime. I am not forced to watch anime off of one service. They can't censor all anime.

You do know that in 2016, the two most active revenue streams for anime is video distribution and chinks right? Netflix was even mentioned by name in the latest industry report.

>multiple tripfags
Oh man those were the days. I'm surprised Janced Lack wasn't there.

Dragonball Super. I looked forward to the weekly threads more than the actual show. It was a glorious trainwreck and the shit posting was top tier.

No, that thread was different. Sure, you had some people whine about women, like you will probably get today, but there was something different. It devolved into tripfags shitposting. Truly, it was the golden age of tripfags. Thanks for taking more than 10 minutes (probably) of your life to find one thread out of hundreds of thousands of posts to cherry pick one example.

Anime is made by the Japanese to sell more expensive shit. Streaming services in the west are a new revenue stream, but you have to face the fact that anime are usually just long commercials for Light Novels, Merch, Manga, and other shit like that.

literally set it to 2010 and looked through like 4 pages, also notice how the OP of that thread is complaining about Yea Forums hating women, meaning it isn't just in that thread you fucking dope.

Case in point, when the last episode aired it had 1553 posts and 253 images omitted.

Blessed image.

So what are you watching then? Only original content, right?

I never said they didn't complain about 3DPD, but it's nothing like /r9k/ no matter how much you think that one troll on Yea Forums 9 years decided to post about. Why don't you make a thread like that today and see if you get the same answers?

Not shitty commercials that's for sure. sorry I don't have a shitty taste as you. The fact of the matter is, Netflix and Amazon prime video are now a force in anime. It's only a matter of time until one of them are able to monopolize streaming rights.

>Anime film
Bro, China is the new cash cow to anyone who makes a movie. There are a lot of Hollywood movies that make more in China than the US.

That post got shitposted to death too?

Good answer, faggot. You didn't give one anime because you don't actually watch anime.

I don't really think kemono friends or most of the shows mentioned so far even come close to Geass hype. I mean the entire board was CG for days at a time back then. Even though there have been big shows on Yea Forums semi-recently none reached that level. Like user said earlier the closest was probably KlK and even that was tame by comparison.

I think the biggest reason is cancerous moderation. They are so fucking anal with the "1 thread per show" rule these days that the communities have no choice but to become splintered enclaves in the form of general threads.

Nigga stole my bike

That's because we were watching fewer shows back then.
Madoka and Vulvarape are the only thing that have come close since. Kill la Kill honestly felt like mostly tourists from other boards, so the spirit wasn't quite there.

fucking bizarre I barely remember valvrave, but multiple people ITT have said it was a big show. I do remember Madoka hype though. It might be because I spent a lot more time on /k/ back in those days.

>would probably shit on you if you used them now

Insecurity/the need to normie LARP that comes with said insecurity caused by "cringe culture" ruined this site along with bringing politics into fucking everything, prove me wrong.

wow you remembered you're the best kevin-kun! i had a brain tumor 5 years ago but it became benign, i am occasionally without food and will see my ribs or spine in the mirror because i have really bad food allergies and eating disorders to where i mostly try to eat meats and cheeses and other things that do not inflict pain on me but i'm improving that and will have a fix to my situation soon probably thanks for asking

It's not necessarily the mods' fault but the users that agree with them. Shitstorms or crazy fun stuff like that don't happen anymore simply because the users don't want them, most anons today think of that sort of thing as cancer/shitposting/whatever and will keep blaming it on other boards or reddit if they happen. It's sad but I guess times have changed.

That sounds really hard. I really hope things do get better and that you're able to fix your situation. I can imagine that being rough on anyone. I'm assuming you're doing that to avoid eating carbs?

The best things Yea Forums had were the tripfags and the associated drama, the singalongs, the different radio/stream, live watching, and stuff like that.

The "Oh nonono" cemented it for me. This site has become a stranded wasteland as far as OC is concerned to the point where people began quoting an outdated, Twitter normalfag meme video.

What ruined this site is /jp/ memes spreading to the rest of the site but missing the irony.
/jp/ joked about "shitposting", moot said "ironic shitposting is still shitposting" one day, then suddenly everything people don't like gets labeled shitposting, which sadly encompasses a lot of old Yea Forums culture.
/jp/ joked about "crossboarders", which was acknowledged as a ridiculous idea mind you, but flash forward a couple years and suddenly browsing more than one board makes you cancer, even though we used to have regular cultural exchanges with fucking Yea Forums of all things.
So on and so forth.

Newfag sadly.

>anal with the "1 thread per show" rule
Moderation doesn't enforce such rule. It's the discord generation of newfags that are intent on keeping a single general artificially afloat so they can circlejerk in it.

it's less diet stuff like carbs and more allergies to a lot of stuff like gluten and and gluten alternatives and some fruits and stuff, watching anti-carb diet stuff makes me feel better about my situation though, i am blessed though with food and probably good health now

2011 was the last good year. It was a steady decline until 2014 then moot went crazy and left so the bottom fell out.

Hopefully it only gets better and better for you. Dietary restrictions are always tough especially when it's out of your control.

"Shitposting" was a catchphrase originally among the mods. It's so old that it predates janitors being a thing. Ages ago it used to telegraph that you were either talking to a mod that was user posting or some irc orbiter thereof.

That's cool, but there was a time when you could make a joke or post a negative opinion without being told to "go away shitposter stop shitting up our precious comfy thread aaaaaaaaa everybody ignore him and report"

I don't mean "that's cool" sarcastically by the way, those really are cool facts I didn't know about. I feel like I have to point that out.
I used to learn a lot of stuff on this site, now that I think about it. When I was new I'd feel like I was surrounded by people who knew what they were doing and really knew how to squeeze the internet for all its worth. There was a lot to learn from them. Even on Yea Forums, of all places. Nowadays I feel like I'm surrounded by paranoiacs, who do or say nothing interesting or out of the ordinary, out of fear of becoming the boogeyman.

It's not just Yea Forums. Back then we lived in the golden age of internet, where it was a wild west and people could do anything. We attracted a different type of crowd, but people themselves where a lot different aswell. These days people on the internet are sheep and our little wild west has been paved over by social media and stuff.

It's sad really

The internet was already shit back then, Yea Forums was the one place to escape from all that shit and hang out with fucked up interesting people with an actual sense of humor. Now that the internet and the world at large have become even shittier we need a place like Yea Forums more than ever, but where is it?

shit sucks man.
at the very least i can still work towards my dream of DJing for a mogra event

>r/a/dio
I remember tuning in regularly few years back and everything, but in reality, it was losing interest on Yea Forums before it even got banned

i feel like the loss of interest is due the fact that don't really do much outside of just playlisting,the DJs don't mix or do much for their sets besides press play and let the song play out. when a radio station puts on a DJ either for a event/weekend night/the DJ being the event itself differentiating itself from regular airtime of just songs being playlisted. after the novelty of Yea Forums having it's own radio staton wore off people started losing interest because r/adio stopped feeling like an event and just a bot. it's the reason so many people are excited for mogra because it's an event that brings something different musically everytime for sets

Anons were right about death of Yea Forums in 2019. After New Year I visit Yea Forums less and less. It is abysmal now. To be honest I find Yea Forums more fun than Yea Forums despite all this shitposting. But still there is sometimes good threads in Yea Forums like TF.

Also Yea Forums was already filled with outsiders who didn't know better. Shitty dabbing edits are the proof of that.

I miss the why.jpg

Threads like these make me feel kind of sad, I stopped browsing boards less and less past 2014 (have been here since 2009). Makes you wonder what all caused it or homogenized everything, I blame social media and more people in general using it daily.

>We barely even have subcultures anymore
What? Every thread is reddit vs MAL vs twitter console war. Plus "ironic weeb" froced memes from Yea Forums. Fanbase/subcultures wars pealed in modern Yea Forums. Right now if you dislike something you can call it reddit and that's it.

It's never coming back. You don't hear about movies, books, comics, etc. with the same reach as those series because the mediums are more established and spread out. We'll probably never experience something like the western anime fandom or the early video game community ever again, at least until some new medium is invented.

This. Most user nowadays admit that they have a partner or want one. Hell most people call me crazy for saying that I am not interested in 3DPD because I am faithful to my 2D crush since 2013. Yeah maybe it's crazy but that's not the point. This is Yea Forums. Yea Forums was supposed to be crazy and now it's just normalfag town 2.0.

Same here. I tried every website I could find, even those I hated to begin with but I gave everything a change in case that I might be wrong.
And for cases I couldn't even bother to read the replies to my first post. I just can't bring myself to use these shitholes again. There are a few I used a bit more often but the more time passed the more I hated them and their community. People always say "move on", but there is no place to move to. The internet is absolute shit and no matter how shitty Yea Forums is, it's still the least shittiest place out there to talk about what you love.

I love watching dumbshit with Yea Forums. For example I thought Valvrave was absolute garbage and a trainwreck. But it was also an enjoyable wild ride watching it with Yea Forums. I watched FranXX weekly and the threads were noticeably low quality. Memes and buzzwords that weren't used in Yea Forums were thrown around regularly and I dropped Franxx after watching 2/3 of it because there was no wild ride to enjoy.

I think I have a different definition of what a subculture is. PS fans or Xbox fans are nothing I would ever categorize as a culture, let alone a subculture. Subcultures are something that is meant to be some sikrit club tier thing to some degree, every retarded kid in existence owns consoles nowadays and participates in console wars and they miss everything that makes a culture a culture, like specific symbols, words, clothing style, lifestyle and so on. The lifestyle of a PS fag isn't much different from the lifestyle of a PC gamer fag.

Every popular show goes viral in Yea Forums. Everything touched by Yea Forums is doomed. I always blame Yea Forums. It's not boogeyman at all. It's real. Worst Yea Forums shitpsotes are always someone who watch anime. Always.

8 Yea Forums was at its best from 2015-2017 unlike this place its just sort of stagnated and I think most posters spend more time here anyway.

You lot are the most pathetic bunch I've ever seen. Imagine taking pride in spending a decade on this shitty forum. Fuck off and die.

Shut up and go to your irl friends to talk about the weather, faggot.

Secret club is a moot sanctioned straw man. Nothing's more quintessentially anti poster besides maybe the flailing rage the word "culture" will put team4chan into.
I remember what was worse and repelling non-seasonal posters was not a bug. It was a feature.
There are at least 5 normalfag chatrooms running ad nauseum on Yea Forums. That's what kills boards friend. I was on Yea Forums in 09-11. I saw what happened to it.

moot had his goodbye shitposts on Yea Forums for a reason.
Unfortunately he did an awful lot to undermine why Yea Forums was by far the best fast moving board when he left in 2014.
If there's anyone that was around Yea Forums and one of the other big boy boards like /pol/ or Yea Forums or Yea Forums and you thought Yea Forums was "just like" one or any of them: you are the worst sort of poster.

Moot fucked up kinomod tho and his ID garbage for mods
Hiro and Abib killed modcat
