/jp/ - Otaku Culture

Yeah, obviously there is. Plus those aren't the only kinds of j-games that regularly share a customer base.

I don't like both of them. Well, maybe VNs if there were some good ones translated and not some dumb nakige-shit.
I'm here for the fun.

btw vocaloid a shit

>>10977752
>vocaloid
lmao

As far as I know the VN and LN fanbases are completely unrelated. There are probably people in the VN general also reading LNs, but they're not the ones posting about them.

There is some overlap between the VN and Touhou communities, though this has drastically decreased over time. Some general subjects, such as doujin games, are appreciated by groups of people from both fanbases.

This is the reason why /jp/ needs to be destroyed and we need /vn/ and /2hu/.

>>10977785
the only thing that needs to be destroyed is you're moms pussy, luckily for you I do it every night

there aren't any camps
some people like stgs some people like vns some like both some like neither

>>10977787

HOLY FUCK

When does the great /jp/ race war between shitposters, LN faglords, anime dweebs and touhou cretins begin?

>>10977800
2011. VN fans were all but eliminated, now only living close together in small areas; Touhou fans, anime fans and shitposters merged together to form a new /jp/ where having a low average posting quality is celebrated and generic responses (such as 'I did your mom' and greentexting with 'lel' or similar) are preferred over genuine witty replies.

>>10977818

>are preferred over genuine witty replies.

I know exactly who you are from just this line, and it's hilarious every time I see you post. You are so trapped in a delusion.

It's like listening to a moon-landing denialist or a hard-creationist.

>>10977818

Indubitably, my good sir; I cannot help but hope that upon the day of our reckoning I be allowed to supp in the gardens of eden with a gentleman of such caliber as yourself. Truly, as might be said by the late Homer, thou dost amaze with thine ability to captivate and submit lesser beings with thine logic and eloquence. I tip my hat to a fellow sir adrift on the seas of this Internet of pitiful and dim souls.

Not that that’s why I’m here per se but this is often what I end up doing.

>>10977873
> (these people are crazy)
Huh?

mindless sheep

versus

freedom fighters against the janidom

that feelio when every time you leave /jp/ for more than a month you lose your desensitization to shit so when you return you notice how seriously shit /jp/ is but then after you've spent 24 hours back you just get used to it and assimilate again

One day I will quit you. :/

>>10977873

You forgot the pretend twitter group that tries over and over to engrave their name in the board culture to be someone iconic (trevor, t!cks, toykeyko,m!lk..etc) when nobody gives a shit.

They would go under "other", but thankfully it's only one person.

/jp/ users are separated into two different major camps, /jp/ community and /a/ community.

>>10977943

I know. I blocked it for a week and came back last night and already am used to it again. I have to go swim through /pol/ first or I quickly forget how 4chan "rolls".

>>10977873
>dollfags
Oi. Don't group me with those 3D lovers. 2D only for me - a doll may technically be 3D, but so is a dakimakura. The point is that it's not a real person, but rather the symbol of an ideal.

I'm sure there's some overlap.

I'm not part of it though. I'm into eroge but not Touhou. Not light novels either, I think most people here who read eroge don't read LNs.

>>10977944
Attention whores in general

w...what do you beat Marisa with 4+ lives it's practically a wail. A very, very obvious that she's another withdrawn character, but lacks a good thing. Now they can go ahead and post about it because there's a lot faster at Soku than I did not use it as a team M member. Yamamoto Hitomi graduated in the thread might 404, but I'll be damned if it has a taste of their lives interesting, most of his cash away though.

>>10977951

Right. And getting hot ass and doing jaeger bombs is just 'symbolic' of reading VNs and watching anime.

Actually, no, that's not how that works at all.

>>10977975
Then what do you consider figurines? They're essentially the same as dolls, except smaller and immobile.

>>10977993

Same shit.

>>10977951
Dolls are made to look like real persons and they are losing their '2Dness'. It's like cosplay. While figs try maintain 2D forms.

You guys are so self-deprecating it's weird.

>>10977995
So having a figurine of your favorite 2D character means you're a 3D lover. An...interesting way to look at things, for sure.

>>10977999
How does this look anything like a real person?

>>10978008
No, he is just retard.

But come on, dolls generally don't even look like the original character they are supposed to present. It's just same doll with different clothes and hair.

>>10978018

Sorry - it's supposed to look like a real person, but it's made with such cheap shit (yet still somehow sold at 10x production price) that it looks inhuman.

>>10978007
/jp/ has seemed to calm down at these hours, it's usually much more so. I'm sorry you could not see it at its full force.

>>10978018
Okay it doesn't but it still looks pretty awful and isn't even near 2D. That's why 2.5D is pretty appropriate term.

>>10978023
You are trying too hard to be aggressive on /jp/, please leave.

>>10978034

Sorry if it hurts your feelings to be publicly embarrassed by someone who's clearly thought things out more than you have.

>>10978029
I don't mind the 2.5D tag, but it's being grouped with idol and JAV lovers. It's much closer to 2D than 3D.

>>10978029

I dunno man, I don't browse the doll threads but there are some pretty cute ones and I might consider buying some one day.

http://vchipsdoll.sblo.jp/

>>10978029
Figurines are indeed superior. It's a shame almost none of them over a certain size look like the character, compared to something like a dakimura.

>>10978041
They look cute but I wouldn't say they're faithful representations of the characters in question.

>>10978045
They don't need to be based on an existing 2D character and can instead just be original, just like how anime/manga/VN characters don't need to be based on real life people but are usually original.

>>10978051

I'm sure they have passionate and talented character designers. It must really put a fire under them to know that their designs will be mangled by the engineering department to cut costs, cast in the cheapest possible plastic in shitty molds, and mass-produced for people to put on their shelves and forget while they ogle the next thing to waste money on.

>>10978051
How original character dolls are supposed to be 2D? Imitation (doll, fig, kig etc.) of 2D character atleast can be considered as 2D in some way.

>>10978066
Except quality dolls, the ones /jp/ talks about, are really expensive and limited-edition. I'd say anime character designers have that problem more than doll designers.

>>10978089
For comparison, a doll of Kurisu. Note that this is a low-quality doll.

>>10978089

>Except quality dolls, the ones /jp/ talks about, are really expensive and limited-edition.

LMAO

This is what they call 'jew brainwashing'. Holy fuck.

>>10978089
Of course it is hard to adapt art from visual novels into animation but that's different thing.

>>10978097
Can you show picture of high quality doll then? They all look same to me.

>>10978113
The other ones posted in this thread were high-quality. The lower quality of this one should be pretty obvious. I mean, just look at those eyes, they're just printed on.

There are people who are here for the content and there are people who think it's fun to be retarded.

>>10978116
Okay while difference is noticeable I still think they all look awful.

>>10978126
You're entitled to your opinion; I can understand that dolls are not for you. I was just arguing with >>10978066 that the dolls /jp/ talks about are not low-quality mass produced garbage.

Seeing these dollfags outside of their dollthreads on /jp/ sure is a disgusting experience.

>>10978131

The dolls /jp/ talks about are low-quality mass produced garbage. You are delusional if you think otherwise.

I'd say >>10977873 is mostly right, except that he left vocaloid, 3dcg, imas and gust threads out of "games" and included some irrelevant/nonexistent groups in "other". Omission of crossboarders is understandable, I think.

As for myself, I'm in the VN+LN category solely, although I'm pretty sure that most posters belong to several groups.
