/jp/ - Otaku Culture

There has been a recent shift in otaku culture. Anime boards are being filled with mobage art, "otakus" support V-tubers and play gacha instead of watching anime or reading visual novels. Boorus are being flooded by gacha art and even artists who've supported the otaku industry for years slowly but surely jump onto the bandwagon as well.

The early 2000's were dominated by small studios of passionate otaku just like us, lead by Type-Moon, key and 07th Expansion. It was a time of wonder and amazement where good visual novels and anime were born almost monthly.
But look at us now: Nasu abandoned his visual novel fans and sided with the gacha folks, key's latest novel barely reached 1.5 thousand entries on pixiv and 07th Expansion has been almost dead and forgotten until last year.
What happened to those times when we used to watch Suzumiya Haruhi no Yūutsu, laugh about silly code geass images on 4chan and just were simple otaku?

I propose that, in order to reclaim those times, we ban every gacha and V-tuber from /jp/ and focus our minds on the true soul of otaku culture:
Visual Novels, anime and touhou!
