/jp/ - Otaku Culture

neets, wotas.

>futaba is worst than 4chan
Not even possible, its Japanese, and therefore it is innately superior to western shit.

>>10174203

What's the difference between Otaku and Wotaku. Outside of the fact that Wotaku don't want to be associated with the former?

it is almost 90% shitposting

think about how 4chan has become overun with more or less 'normal' people, only its to an extreme

the userbase is as if redditors had anonymity

>>10174214
Are you retarded?

>>10174213
>the userbase is as if redditors had anonymity
I'm failing to see how that is any different from 4chan.

>>10174219
>you retarded

>>10174226
Japan's media is a niche interest in the west, so its holding some of those people at bay. Obviously this isn't as much of a relevant issue in Japan itself.

The autism level of their memeposters puts ours to shame.

>>10174239

No anecdotes?

>>10174213
>futaba
>normalfags
what
there's threads of furry shit or whatever fetish porn between regular threads

>>10174215
Wotas define those people obsessed with a particular idol. You will see them spending a fortune buying dozens of X idol in order to boost her popularity, or if they ever find out their idol is not a pure virgin devoid of human emotions, they make the spanish inquisition seem mild.

This is the futaba userbase:

Actually FlanFly is still impressive.

Shit posts. Literal shit spamming posts. The exact same userbase as 4chan except Japanese, and without much funny to show for it. It's also several orders smaller than 4chan so 4chan is better just by having more potential for "win". Actually, rather than the same base as 4chan, it's more like if the entirety of 4chan was populated only with /a/ and /jp/ types.

Although it might just be because I don't hang around the normalfag boards there anymore than I do here.

Well

>>10174297
wtf is that?

>>10174301

Japanese web sites anthropomorphisized.

Go to Futaba

Bring something back

>>10174200
You know those nico video where they freeze frame some hilarious video reaction image and loop them for 100000x times? That is your typical nip.

>>10174297
whoa, what is mixi?

>>10174313
Japans facebook.

>>10174313
japanese facebook, basically

>>10174313
also if you think "whoa" as in "she's hot", that's supposed to be a man

>>10174323

>>10174311

Why?

Futaba rarely has image dumps. It's 90% discussion, the pictures are just used to start threads.

Futaba is much more entertaining than here.

>>10174335

Not in jun.

And futaba is way better than 4chan for me

>>10174397
>And futaba is way better than 4chan for me

Me too.

In futaba's crossdressing board they always post this old man that walks around in mini skirts and slut clothes all the time im jealous actually because his body is really nice but his face is ugly and he never shows shame.

>>10174439

Are you me?

>>10174443
According to Lain I could be

They have more original content but usually threads mostly consist of overused memes or short reaction phrases and I think I've never saw a good serious discussion about something on any Japanese board.

Also I'm not sure about this though I think they don't have strong opinions on anything because I've seen a lot more Western wikis and fansites with specualtions than Japanese.

>>10174335
>rarely has image dumps. It's 90% discussion

must be the closest thing to heaven on the net

>>10174524
I've never understood why people hate image dumps so much. Surely there is fundamentally no difference between an image dump and a discussion about something you don't like. And it's not like image dumps existing somehow take away from discussions you do like.

>>10174486
Japan has easier access to source materials, so they don't need to speculate. That and the west over analyzes things.

>>10174561
>the west over analyzes things.

This is true, japs like shit vague and view explicit dialogue negatively.

>>10174571
The creators of Lain and Eva said that Americans and Japanese got pretty much the same things from their works and that they were dissapointed (for different reasons)
