How am I even supposed to respond to that?
Meet up with a friend after not seeing each other in a long time

Genius
I’m going to try this
Watching the One Piece anime is already a sign of being terminally retarded, how he does it is irrelevant
>r/greentext
What is this?
OwO
On a related note, does anyone else not understand how people can put on a show and not focus on it 100%? I always pause if I look at my phone or whatever, I don't know how people are OK with repeatedly missing 30 second chunks as they check a text or whatever
>having friends
i shiggy diggy
I have net friends that wanna watch anime with me then it ends up being them half watching and playing ff14 while not understanding anything going on...why ask me to watch stuff if you are not going to ffs.
Seriously what the fuck is it
They're either simply not invested or multitasking has poisoned their minds. It sucks.
Nice blogpost faggot
Thanks :)
>watching one piece
retarded
>reading one piece so you can skim boring shit

Any long anime needs to be read, just go back and watch cool fight scenes

Naruto
FMA

American TV shows aren't good enough to command 100% of your attention, plus commercials get people into the habit of thinking that TV shows are things you turn on and have going "in the background."
I tend to skip parts that I can already predict entirely. It's why I've skipped watching anime for two years now and it's why I'm going to skip reading any replies I'm going to get.
As soon as you understnad the language there's virtually no reason to not shitpost while watching. 90% of all shows have no noteworthy subtext, meaning you won't miss anything by not looking at the character's mouths. And there's maybe 15% that look interesting enough to pay attentiont to the visuals, so let's say 80%, assuming some overlap between visuals and cinematic language, are merely colored books.
it's a subreddit. A subreddit is like a Yea Forums board
Good thing nobody here know English
No it isn't. r/anime's quality of debate is higher than Yea Forums's.
Jesus christ, I remember when we fucking hated reddit, now people go there and even know what boards they have?
You realize that your post is even worse than the people you are trying to make fun of, right? How can you say that you hate something when you don't know anything about it? Ignorance isn't something to be proud of. If you hate reddit, you better know how it works. Otherwise you look like a complete mongrel.
we all secretly browse reddit
r/anime is trash and full of trannies
>not watching on 2x speed, skipping the op/ed and finishing 40 ep a day
>Tfw ironic oldfag posting is no longer working
Thank god for that, fuck oldfags
The new generation of Yea Forums will no longer be suppressed
People often watch shows just to finish them. They don't actually pay attention. Ask them to explain what they just watched and they're at a loss. Just look at all the threads that crop up on Yea Forums anytime something requiring a fraction of an attention span happens. People keep asking questions that were just explained. Always.
Based and transparencypilled.
Knowing how it works doesn't require you to know all its shitty boards
not that user, and altough I agree with him, I do use reddit as a news outlet for certain games. Sad when the devs converse over that shitty site so youre kinda shoehorned into it but what can you do.
You're out of your element here. This board is the embodiment of Five Monkeys and a Ladder. It's always a sad state when you see a bunch of newfags memepile a googled stream screenshot and you just know of the 50
>streaming
replies 48 have no idea why they're against streaming.
Transparent
t. that user, it was ironic oldfag posting. The only issue with reddit, and it's a major issue but the only issue is with the karma system. It's awful, but the best way to use the site is to just view all comments regardless of points
The average Yea Forumsnon who labels himself oldfag
-watches 40 seasonal shows
-hasn't seen anything from before 2005
-barely watches any movies, let alone short films
-knows nothing about animation, visual language, cinematography, film techniques of any kind
-has barely ever, if ever, engaged with a piece of art in an analytical manner
-thinks that you can tell "what you like" by reading a synopsis
-barely ever drop anime because they are mentally limited to understand that all genre's have good anime
-refuse to do proper research because "databases are cancer"
I hope they die out soon. "Oldfags" are an embarrassment and not something I'd ever want to be associated wtih. When I started browsing this board I thought they might be people to look up to, professor of the medium. But by now I realize just how unknowledgable they actually are and how superficial thier relationship to the medium actually is. They are fat people who sit infront of the TV all day, watching but not paying attention, let alone asking relevant questions.
Reminds me of people on Yea Forums when they go "le thanks le doc", I imagine most people don't even know why they say that shitty meme
>Yeah I'm quite the oldfag, I've seen absolutely vintage shows from eras long past like K-on
FUCK DIGIBRO THE DUMB CUNT
this better be ironic
this thread reeks of Yea Forums by the way
Top stuff, my man. Have you got an RSS feed for your blog?
the issue is your not user
karma system is shit too
>Barely watches movies
me
>knows nothing about animation
me
>I dont engage with art
me
Wtf i'm not an oldfag
>all genre's have good anime
>the issue is your not user
Hello newfriend.
Name one that doens't. And don't you dare say shounen now.
Yuri has 0 good anime all garbage.
Idk any other entirely bad genres
>t. retard that watches 3 anime a year yet pollutes the board
Kill yourself.
>Love Live poster
>Knows nothing about animation
BASED
Also by watching anime you're literally engaging with art on the basest level
I watch trash fanservice shows like this. Also what look like 5/10 seasonals. If they suck I drop them, if they are still 5/10 I will play them in the background. If they end up being good I watch them properly. Also shows with stupid amounts of episodes like OP, or even forumalic older shows like ranma. I already stay current with the manga so OP is just background for me. Ranma is awesome but not exactly something you need to concentrate on to enjoy, same for most of rumikos work.
You might wanna try making posts that aren't a bunch of meaningless platitudes posted in broken English before expecting people to put in effort conversing with your single-digit IQ ass.
Yuri all trash
I only watched 2 eps of love live, then dropped. sry bro
Is that not how you are supposed to watch one piece?
Guess you tick most of the boxes, huh?
Absolutely based
How did Yea Forums become Yea Forums boogeyman?
Utena was good
a better question would e how did Yea Forums and /pol/ become the sitewide boogeyman instead of Yea Forums?
and lurking for 7 years should answer that question for you
What a garbage fucking thread.
Learn to write you fucking underage autist.
Shut up boomer
stop projecting faggot
go back
>Watching anime
Ew
I think it's the "Yea Forums hates video games" meme that they're trying to apply to posters that they disagree with
>how did Yea Forums and /pol/ become the sitewide boogeyman instead of Yea Forums
See pic related
How am I projecting?
In Yea Forums's case it's actually pretty easy to explain
Yea Forums is the boogeyman because Yea Forums thnks that's were all the shonenshitters come from. Which is pretty hilarious given how people on this board take pride in playing VN's, which are pseudo games. /pol/ is the boogeyman becasue most of Yea Forums is a bunch of uneducated losers and in their mind 20s. Meaning, as soon as an anime actually references real world events, user can't participate in the conversation anymore. He doens't want to be reminded of his shortcomings, either, so everybody who talks about NOT CARTOONS is /pol/. So we're back to the refusal of oldfags to engage wtih art beyond superficial levels. It's all one big vicious cycle. Ignrance leads to self-pity leads to boogeyman leads to ignorance.
Go back to Yea Forums.
>namefag telling anyone to go back
sasuga newfaggots
stop posting
lurk more
It was a rhetoric question
And my answer would be because Yea Forums is a cesspool of underage tards who just learned about politics and political correctness so they constantly try to be offensive while simultaniously getting offended over every sjw thing every
theyre also completely fine with twitterscreenshot threads or linking reddit
battle shounen
romcom
isekai
yaoi
yuri
ecchi
Been on here for like ~6 months, i'm not a newfag
>theyre also completely fine with twitterscreenshot
If you weren't such a retard so would you be. Twitter is the animation industry's primary hub for conversation. Any question you ask the staff will be posted on Twitter. If you hate Twitterscreenshots you're quite literally retarded and know nothing about the industry.
By not making offtopic threads on Yea Forums. You and your friend are both homosexual, now leave.
I tick the box where I see an ESL posting and disregard anything he says because ESLs consistently prove themselves to have intellectual capabilities comparable to those of the average houseplant.
That would be nice if people actually posted relevant Twitter posts instead of literal whos
>having friends
Get out, normie scum!
>not skipping 200 episodes of filler
Absolutely pleb tier.
user youre completely missing the fucking point
look, I get it, some of them only communicate via twitter and its the only source to get the latest news, fine, include the twitter screenshot
but 90% of the time on Yea Forums its instead about a SJW with 50 followers with absolutely no fucking relevance, or a discussion between journos, or whatever,
its rarely about something of actual fucking significance. And even when it is you could just link the twitter and keep the screenshots out
>literal whos
Your vernacular betrays where you come from. You clearly don't belong here.
Why are there so many Yea Forums threads about not having any anime to watch lately?
Probably because the last 5 seasons have been genuinely terrible.
Everyone who says this always has 1 or 2 friends. except me
Yeah? Good thing then, fuck you and your kind.
If you skip the filler, how are you going to put that you watched all 800 eps on your MAL?
No they haven't. It's been the same low quality shit as always. Knowing when a person thinks seasonal anime started going downhill is a good indicator of when he started getting into anime. The complaints roll around after the initial novelty of the medium wears off.
You're not the only one!
I'm just curious what gives you the idea that you're under any authority to talk about the culture and general attitudes of this board when you're very clearly a completely clueless outsider.
Because Hiroshimoot payed me.
>normie
Get the fuck out, normalfag.
Gn thread, see you at ~3:30
2016 and 2017 completely tower over 2018, shit eater. 2018 didn't have a single noteworthy anime. Even the best of the best are barely serviceable. And unless 2019 actually has Iso's new spacerat show and Kaijuu no Kodomo as well as Fafner Beyond manage to be absolutely mindblowing, the current year is shaping up to be just as terrible as 2018.
Meant for .
>tfw multiple friend groups
Haha I'm waaaay cool bro
Lel that capped poster was fucking triggered/butthurt by our based and redpilled truths, what a jewish nigger faggot.
I didn't even say normie wtf
We'll get friends one day (hopefully). Schleep time
There's not a single good show from 2016 what the fuck are you even on about?
What the fuck is mal?
Not only is this downright wrong, the fact that you limit yourself to shows tells me everything I need to know. Now begone, shit eater. Shoo shoo.
Good night friend.
>Not only is this downright wrong
Prove it so. You're not actually going to imply konsuba is good, right?
Yea Forums kiddies started feeling welcomed here after mods decided to do fuck all about all their cancerous generals, so now that the novelty is starting to wear off they do nothing but bitch and shitpost like the little children they are.
