>So if it's popular in Japan it's /jp/ related, regardless of whether it has an appropriate board for it?
You have to think of the reason why moot created /jp/: a trash can for obscure (at the time) off-topic hobbies that were constantly spammed by a minority in /a/; mainly Touhou.

So it's /jp/ related if it's otaku culture related.
Japanese stuff that was born in the otaku aesthetic and that's nerdish and/or obscure enough to be followed by a niche and obsessive group, and doesn't have an appropriate board for it; or if it has, it isn't well received.
This is something all VNs, kigurumi, doujinsoft, denpa, dolls and idols for example, have in common.
Touhou might be an exception since it's board heritage, but it's still niche enough I think.

/jp/ is hard to explain, it's something you have to feel.
So basically you leave it to the community. They will decide if something matches the flow of the board or not.

But I agree with you to an extent, yes.
