What obscure hobby should get an anime next? My vote goes to amateur astronomy

Makes us feel like the insignificant worms we are on this retarded hunk of space shit.

but sora no manimani already exists

Amazingly this opinion is common among zoomers and commies
They always say "don't spend for up there, when you should be focusing up here!"

Is it any good?

Crawling around on a dirt layer filled with petrified dinosaur turds and decomposing prostitutes murdered by serial rapist/murderers. I don't understand why this world is such an uncaring fuckfest of mutilated baby fetuses mutated into commie chink normie mindslaves. Oh my Jesus! Send a fucking killrock to this writhing nightmare ruled by money crazed Jews and their flesh puppet factory workers.

That's just your anus, user.

Astronomy? Anime being deliciously perverted, they'll be using an amateur telescope to spot some spherical objects. Big, bouncing, mighty milk mounds.

Aquascaping and fishkeeping

Having watched the theater play Felix Starro last Saturday, faith healing could use a proper analysis. Many people focus too hard on the "healing" part as if it causes physical changes, but the real purpose is to boost the patient's mental confidence so that the despair of dying sooner than they like is whittled down (aka the faith is the part being healed).

You ruined it.

In awe of the size of that lad.

His Giga Drill broken anus.

Cock and ball torture.

Traditional Ukiyo-e printmaking. Each episode could be dedicated to a single print, and it could tell the story both through the characters making it, and the scenes and people depicted in the print.

Skateboarding it's a must, even more taking in count it's now an olympic sport.

How dare you say that on an underwater basket weaving forum

How about a bird watcher getting isekai'd

That band.

There is an Ukiyo-e manga now.

Pelota

Parkour

Wasnt Prince of Stride about parkour?

70s rock and roll.

Gunpla building, but without the battle aspect(or maybe with Idk) but a show that brings things down to earth and just showcases a small group of mecha otaku or just otaku in general, but their main thing is building plamo/gunpla.
The episodes could even have expository segments where the characters describe the process so you get a tutorial within the context of the episode.
Tonally and aesthetically it would be grounded in reality like Genshiken.

Even more cancerous than anything we've got here.

Let's forget that anime existed and get a good parkour anime.

Why?

Prince of Stride was hot garbage. I don't even think the most hardcore of fujoshi liked it.

A couple of tumblers did like it though.

Well shit, didn't think anyone out there would find joy in that inept series.

4girl with a dog walking arubeito or working at a rescue center
Surely convincing otaku to adopt pets isn't beyond Abe's schemes?

I just want something realistic and informative in a fun way.

>anime that appeals to train otakus

wait was the dude who burnt down kyoani also a trainhomo? god damnit what is it about trains that attracts such autists?

No, he wasn't, there was just a meme floating around about him being a train otaku.

THIS
HAM FUCKING RADIO
solo deep sea yachting is also acceptable

it wouldnt surprise me eitherway. I cant walk 10 feet in my hobby without running into some Asperger addled manchild who writes down engine numbers and can tell a train from its horn.
I just wanna play with my little trains damnit

Being a vtuber.

So not the vtuber herself but the seiyuu portraying her? Could be interesting but probably a bit too "behind the curtain" for such a popular fad right now.

I was just literally thinking about Sora no Manimani the other day for no reason.

Tarantula-keeping. The OBT can be the tsundere.

If it wasn't a slice of life you could also go the mystery route, which would be tracking down an anomalous radio signal (probably in russia), which is either the commies or aliens. Perhaps it starts with debris of a satellite containing some form of information. Again, yachting.

Sora no Manimani and Hoshizora Kiseki

Can high schoolers even get a ham license in Japan, let alone one that lets them do HF? I've heard licensing is a PITA compared to the US.

>pirate radio
It can be a Shinkai movie if he continues to make these sappy romance stories.

>What obscure hobby should get an anime next?

My top three "unironically SUPER interesting hobbies that sound gay/boring" are:
-Fishing
-Bug Catching
-Astronomy
^ Any one of these hobbies you could treat with autistic detail or obsession and you'd still produce an incredibly popular anime. If I had to pick one, though, I'd go with fishing because it's the more visually interesting one and has a lot to offer in terms of FISH AUTISM and excellent scenery.

Tsuritama

There was a fishing cgdct anime announced recently.

>Tsuritama

I fuckin' loved Tsuritama.
Both for the fishing AND the gayness.

Is there an hunting anime?

I want to see cute girls flay a deer carcass

Attached: 1557912472724.jpg (470x606, 63K)

painting garden gnomes

Amateur radio

Shooting sports in general

Neither of which would be viable in a Japanese setting except maybe a show about Olympic 10m air gun autism which would be mega gay.

Golden Kamuy is the closest I can think of off the top of my head, but the hunting is ultimately a secondary aspect to the series.

Skydiving, but the first episode start with jumping from space balloon and it'll only go crazier from there.

Do Japanese people do much hunting? Are they even allowed to hunt? I'd watch the shit out of a hunting anime where they stalk, hunt, shoot, butcher, and eat wild game. I'd actually be super interested to see how it's done over there in modern Japan.

Probably nothing but boar and deer I'd imagine though.

Harder than a driver's licence?

He might already have a hardon for it since he jammed one into Children Who Chase etc, not to mention the slightly engineery part of The Place Promised etc.
But I don't think he's autistic enough to go full ham.
amplitude shift keying > qam

>another radio fan
fuck we need this
Any manga or LN/WN that can quench me? Also I think the sole mention of shortwave as a decentralised communication method in E7 was what started me on this shit.
>shooting sports
Pretty sure there's a manga of that called "I love my rifle" or some shit.

>Are they even allowed to hunt?

Regulation is through the roof, they're pretty much only allowed shotguns unless they happen to be Abe's personal knob polisher, and it'd all be boring as shit ambush hunting (treestands) or birds/waterfowl, but yes. There are a tiny minority of hunters in Japan.

Yeah, I could see a beetle catching/battling anime being a big success if you market it at kids. Battle Bugs.

Watch Sabagebu ep 7

What other obscure hobbies can we push clueless otakus into so that they accidentally kill themselves or destroy their surroundings? We already had Yuru Camp and that dude in Mexico who started a forest fire.

Except that you are not looking at light. You still look at objects. You just need light in order to see those objects

>What other obscure hobbies can we push clueless otakus into so that they accidentally kill themselves or destroy their surroundings?

Mushroom picking.

Amateur alchemy

Civil War reenacting.

Fiction man, all fiction.

Whittling, the only time I've seen it even in a manga was Vagabond.

Scuba diving

Ingesting poisonous plants in lethal quantities because ancient Chinese wisdom says it cures erectile dysfunction.

Or like says, mushrooms.

Collecting priceless paintings

This is funny because mushroom pickers are fucking insane, they are super secretive about their spots and obsess about traveling and finding various species just to look and take pictures.

There was this comic where the kid had an astronomer/ham radio/inventor grandpa and he tried to contact aliens and the kid secretly send a "send nudes" message to space because he had trouble with girls and then 20 years later they abduct him to get him laid, hijinks ensue.
That was a pretty fun one.

free climbing, base jumping, hang gliding, pyrotechnics, eating fugufish, also street racing I guess

Also I want sandboarding just so we can get a moe version of this

Trading Card Games (ideally MtG)
With no fantasy or sci-fi elements whatsoever
Just a show about some guy playing a card game, going from a caual player to winning worldwide competitions, with a major focus on deckbuilding and the metagame.

You're just jelly you're too poor for a telescope. I still remember how shocked I was when I looked through one to see the Moon for real for the first time. It's like your eyes have been lying to you all along.

Calm down Mister Misanthrope

Just for you I researched for half an hour and picked apart my rotting brain.

Turns out the whole story is a bit different and its less of a one shot and more part of the 90's underground comic series "Platinum Grit" by Trudy Cooper (oglaf.com) and some dude. Which was great, shame I completely forgot about it.

Also the whole series is dead since 10 years and ends on a huge cliffhanger, so there's that too. And if that wasn't enough, the archive is available online but in Shockwave file format. That's right, not even Flash but the thing before that. Use the MSI installer on Adobe's page if you are curious. The story I remember was beginning on book 1, chapter 4.
