/jp/ - Otaku Culture

the stickies are gone, the official mourning period is over
now we must content with the fact that life will continue as it always has

>>18538676
I'm still going to block traffic in his memory.

>/a/ was full of anons mourning him
>/jp/ was full of anons mourning him
>/v/ was full of newfags getting angry that nobody is paying attention to their shitty soyack threads and shitting up the thread with politics
even /pol/ was mourning, for heaven's sake. plenty of oldfags on /v/ doing the same, but still, it doesn't feel right that somebody would hijack these threads like this

>>18538725
Out of these three, video games is definitely more popular(as in the contents, not the board itself), so there's a ton of new people, and among those, the ones who want to "fit in" with the majority, the majority right now being other new people.

>>18538676
We must pull up our pants. Dust ourselves off.

Ass we can.

>>18538725
He was a living legend, but one that very few people understood. A few weeks ago I actually was in a thread a few weeks ago that asked why so many people respond to Gachimuch on 4chan with anger or disgust these days when only a few years ago it was considered a true treasure.

>>18538737
point is that /pol/, and arguably more cancerous board, somehow got together and mourned him. sure, there were a few edgy posts telling le gay twitch man to burn in hell, but from what I saw, even if they didn't know who he was, they at least asked who he was, and paid their respects. there was someone, or multiple people, who were actively shitting up the /v/ sticky at all times, with their bait posts. I was there for most of the time it was active, until it died

one good thing that has come out of this sticky and harmony coming back is that oldfags there had enough, many promised a good old guro scat dump, and other methods to scare off newfags. if they will pull thru, we will see

since all threads are gone, guess I will just pay my respects to the man one last time. there will never be another man, or icon, like him again. We lost more than just a man, we lost yet another part of internet culture today

>>18538725
>>18538752
an internet message board is not a person, silly!
who are you quoting
define "cancerous"
only newfags say "newfags"

>>18538745
leftypol and tumblr/resetera/neogaf/other leftyfaggots didn't grew up on old internet culture like we used to, and refuse to lurk. they unironically see the shoop da whoop/pool is closed meme as racist and problematic, and probably saw aniki as some sort of homophobic, toxic masculinity stereotype. GamerGate ruined everything, it opened the gateway for these kinds of people

>>18538744

>>18538670
R.I.P

>>18538752
Yeah, people shitting on him there are likely the faggots who came here during the 2016 election.

>>18538762
I don't quite understand how Gamergate exploded the way it did.

>>18538824
toxic masculinity -.-

>>18538793
most definitely

complete newfags

Rest in peace, Billy

Moscow, Russia

>>18538845
Here also flowers near USA embassy, Vladivostok

>>18538824
moot replaced the mods and nuked all discussion here. I remember the threads went from /pol/ to /v/ and even to /b/ and still get deleted. Dunno about /sp/ but the board also got nuked for some reason. That's where the "he does it for free" meme born.

Something so extreme it got banned from here would attract attention.

>>18538767
Anybody who wasn't a friend of Aniki is no friend of mine.

>>18538824
>Culture swings hard left, wonder (((Why)))
>Everything becomes politicized
>People find legit corruption in video game "Journalism"
>A movement starts to expose both the corrupt gaming media, and the, at the time, growing tumor that was the SJW movement
>Eventually, people lose sight of what they were doing, and GG loses
>Moot is found to be a cuck-a-duck, infinity is born, and the site is never the same
/v/ was understandably hit the most. But in the nutshell, this was the prologue to the cancerous society that we live in today. Trump/2016 elections didn't destroy this site, all they were was a final nail in it's coffin

Here is a fun little read. It's not even about videogames, they are just the symptom, there is something very wrong going on, and like a cancer, it only became apparent with GG, and could no longer be ignored

>>18538845
>>18538872
Near the embassy, you guys are crazy, it's amazing

>>18538845
Is there a memorial place held somewhere? Or is it you and your friends?

>>18538883
>>18538903
Oh yeah I forgot. The Fappening happened right before all this shit went down. Some Anon got offered $1m by TMZ or something for the leaked nudes. He posted it on /b/ instead.

>>18538886
deep down, we're all Aniki

>>18538925
Those are people from social networks.

>>18538872
>>18538910

Is it acceptable to send flowers to an embassy in your country for a death? What do they do with it? I'm asking because I wanna do it, if it means I can show my support to the family in some way, but I don't want it just go to waste.

Australia, if that helps for anyone who can chime in about acceptable embassy/death gifting procedures.

>>18538963
It's rather dangerous there from what i've heard, no idea about Australia though, at best they'll just throw it away

>>18538963
People bring flowers and put it near the embassies when tragedy occurs.

>>18538974
Russian gay propaganda laws are blown way out of proportion in the west. Basically as long as you don't make a campaign or a piece of media aimed at children with a message of how cool it is to be gay, you are alright (I guess this is also true for public events, so gay marches are unlikely to happen in Russia).
People are a different question though, most are conservative and don't like gays too much.

Billy truly deserved to live a long and happy life. A really good man has been taken from us.

He may not have had the long life he deserved, but I know he had a happy one.

I dont think I've had a bigger "you learn something's value after you lose it" moment than this ever

>>18538670
I don't want to start fucking crying again

Once again, Russians prove to be the superior kind of people.

I believe they are usually collected and donated to a hospital nearby in the deceased persons name, if they are so great in number as not to be easily transported back to the homeland of.

>>18538845
>>18538872
This is really great. Someone on the sticky said he'd leave a tribute on the accidents site, I hope he posts pictures

>>18539041
Aniki seemed like one of these things that would never, ever go away

>>18538745
>why so many people respond to Gachimuch on 4chan with anger or disgust these days

>>18539041
Fuck that's the exact way i feel.
>>18538752
Last time I posted gore on /pol/ i got banned. That was 2016 to scare the redditors. Never gonna post there ever again, I ocasionally lurk though. Mods and jannies just don't understand the culture of the site and the new people refuse to adapt because they believe /pol/ is a movement to cause political change and be edgy. The oldfags that keep posting on /pol/ and that bumped and mourned aniki really deserve praise, because most people like me get tired of dealing with retards and boomers who just don't get internet and imageboard culture. It's sad because you would imagine /pol/ would defend the roots and culture of this site.

>>18538725
/a/ had plenty of shitposters initially.

>>18538824
Games media was using outrage for clicks for years, and /v/ always bit the bait.
Something that was supposed to be yet another bi-annual shitstorm blew up when people started banning discussion everywhere, creating a streissand effect, /v/ermin started to get paranoid, and every single reactionary on the internet smelled blood and tried to pander.
And now the fallout of some americans trying to get some bucks is the whole english-speaking internet getting into a huge internet slapfight, thinking they are into some sort of culture war.

>>18539683
/a/ always has a group of people trying to be misanthropes. It's not a big deal.

>>18538845
There was also this one in Moscow

>>18539739
And a Finnish one. I think there also was a Polish one but I don't have any pics of that.

I would be surprised if there any in Ukraine. I wasted myself yesterday pretty hard after news.

Remember Aniki, remember his smile, remember that we are all his friends. Aniki does not want you to cry, Aniki does not want you to be sad, Aniki would want you to smile. To know that he is now free from this world of shit, where people hurt others just because they can, or they want to. Aniki loves you, and wants you to be happy.

Spring, far off spring, as I close my eyes right there
You, who has given me love, I hear your nostalgic voice.
Spring, as yet unseen spring, whenever I feel lost and stop.
You, who has given me dreams, your gaze embraces me...

I live near where aniki was born. Should I bring some flowers over there?

>>18538725
>>18538752
What is the post number for the sticky? I was busy for the last 36 hours and I missed it.

RIP ;_;

>>18538903
Here's another image. Can't believe this was 4 years ago.
It's unbelievable just how hard everything has escalated since then. Armies of "alt-right" and "SJW" cattle screeching non-stop about their aimless narratives and imaginary boogeymen. And there were billions of people that just didn't give a shit and made about as much difference as the "activists" did.
Remember the massive viral shitstorms and fake narratives that were? There's gonna be so many more to come.
Think about everything that's still hidden from us, the uncouth masses.
I feel so scared, sad, confused and worried when I occasionally remember the world we live in and look this old shit up. And wish I could somehow get a clearer picture of just what the fuck has been happening over the last couple of years.
The world is so fucked. Is this "system" a historical inevitability? Us being trampled like we're subhuman?
No wonder aliens won't visit.

It's been years since I stopped browsing to 4chan that often, and I have only been visiting /out/ from time to time. I just came when a friend told me about Aniki's death.
Hiro's words ( http://hiro.asks.jp/100252.html ) about him really show what a good person he was.
Very sad to see the Facebook post of his mother announcing his death.
RIP

>>18540074
That would be great.

need someone to do a drawing of billy sparring with god in heaven

>>18538670

Why is it I'm not allowed to dislike le gay wrestling man? I never liked these silly memes, I've been here longer than those memes existed, but now that he's gone I have to pretend he's some hero or everyone shits on me or tries to censor me? The videos are no different from those ones with anime girl voice clips set to music and the meme spouting is no different from bane posting. Is it going to be the same if someone from Inmu dies? Are we going to have to pretend Cookie is anything good? If I posted a bunch of cockmongler related images, no one would give a fuck, so "its internet history" excuse I've seen doesn't really fly either.

But more then that, why are you not allowed to express dissenting opinions on modern 4chan?

>>18539007
If you want a country that actually has its police raiding homes looking for gays then try Indonesia.

Agreed on the people part though.

>>18540139
As much as cancerous it has been, it really inject some new blood into the gachi world a few year back.
It might be disease ridden blood, but it sure rejuvenate gachi until now.

>>18539683

>>18540217

Nothing personel.

>>18540217

>>18540234
No, I don't shitpost. I'm just wondering why you're not allowed to dislike something anymore. Not just with this either.

Then what are you doing right now? You're shitposting.

>>18540250
More than that really, there's this like overall thing where where if you don't conform to some retard's standards, you're accused of being from some boogeyman site or boogeyman board or collectively being this one person who is the only person who could possibly have a different opinion from someone else.

>>18540139
Dumb frogposter

>>18540265
Saying "I don't like thing" is not shitposting.

>>18540259
This is shitpoting

>>18540273
Saying "I don't like thing" in a thread about thing is shitposting and ruins the discussion by having it be all about you and your faggot ways. Fuck off you aren't adding anything to the discussion.

>>18540273
no,not knowing 4chan culture,the beginnings of this site while many people mourn a special guy who introduced many people to 4chan and even to futaba is shitposting
and then
>muh why is disliking something not allowed buhu :(

>I've been here long before this shit existed but have absolutely no clue
that's trolling and shitposting senpai
your newfag is showing

>>18540281
>Saying "I don't like thing" in a thread about thing
No it is not, and that's what I was saying. When did 4chan become a hugbox? Is it the general thread mindset? Why are you not able to express an opinion outside the hivemind? Do you expect someone to make a thread about how they dislike something? (like imagine I made a thread saying I don't like gay wrestling. It'd be deleted.)

>ruins the discussion by having it be all about you and your faggot ways
That's what you're doing, not me. You were probably waiting for an excuse to derail the thread, although you were already talking about unrelated gamergate shit and how much you hate "newfags".

>>18540290
This is also shitposting. But you're right, I'll stop posting and indulging you with replies.

>>18538725
/pol/ was the most sane of them all to be honest,followed by /biz/

>>18540217
>Why is it I'm not allowed to dislike le gay wrestling man?
But you are, you dumbfuck. You're posting about it right now. You are "allowed" to post whatever as long as it's within board rules, but you are not entitled to have everyone fawn over your shit opinions.

Your posting sucks, is self-obsessed, and completely misses the point. But instead of stepping back and considering why your posts receive a negative response you paint yourself as a victim and concoct some bullshit moral highground to rationalize it. Fuck off.

My English is not very good, but I wanna say that Billy and all of gachi have united people from different country. Look at him, we make tons of content and tons of happy. Thank you Billy, for all you did.
F to pay respect

>>18540516
F
What country are you from?

The fact that /pol/ keeps mourning aniki while /a/ /v/ and other boards don't is fucking conflicting.

>>18540523
I assume he's japanese

Birry's life deserves to be celebrated, and I'm glad to see that is what's occurring. His mark upon the internet and nekoneko/2ch/4ch is indelible and he'll never be forgotten. We can simply strive to live with as much dignity and grace as he did.

/pol/ wing standing by btw

>>18540533
its like they say
>/pol/ is the new old /b/

Ill see you in the other side, Boss

Rest in peace

I don't want to stop mourning his name because I feel like it'd be an injustice

Если хотите это прочесть, воспользуйтесь переводчиком. If you want to read it, use the translator. Билли для нас являлся неотделимой частью многих тредов. Видео с ним заставляли нас улыбаться и я не совру если скажу что многие хранили на пк, вебм webm с гачи ремиксами. Для нас всех это большая утрата.

>>18540594
well 4chan isn't 4chan anymore so whatever
atleast we aren't /fit/ and have a catholic debate about fags

who the fuck gives a shit about what other boards are doing, especially now that the sticky is gone.

this is /jp/ and a thread for Billy. crossboarders either pay your respects or fuck off back to whatever shithole board you come from where you want to complain about sjw shit or whatever.

>To know that he is now free from this world of shit, where people hurt others just because they can, or they want to.
Aniki loved this world, unlike you.

>>18540657
At least some positive news to help me swallow this bitter pill.
Would love to see him participate with the community like Aniki did, but I don't want to see him forced.

>>18540657
Saw Billy's replies and my heart skipped a bit

>>18540708
NO
STOP

>>18540217
Or you could have some tact and just hide the threads, rather than act like an obnoxious edgy teenager, then proceed to get offended when people tell you to fuck off for it. How do you expect people to react to you behaving like a massive shitstain?

>>18540780
I get what you guys are saying, but that guy has a point that 4chan has become a hugbox, when it used to be the farthest thing from that a while back. Influx of redditors has turned this website into a soy-filled, easily triggered SJW hell hole.

>>18540891
Please do not ruin this thread.

>>18540896
You see, you're sort of proving that point too. Stop being triggered like a fucking pussy. Are you a man or not?

Oh shit I just found that /ourguy/ from MASH died on the same day as Aniki.
This year started better than the last one but its slowly going to shit.

>>18540909
>We never turn back and seek the future
That's some shoddy sentence structure, someone might misinterpret it.

>>18540916
I am a man.
I am a man who honors tradition, memory, and respect to the deceased.
Just because people call you a shithead for being a shithead doesn't mean that they are paper-thin-skinned redditors.

>>18540920
It's a quote from http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm11217635

I think.

Don't reply to 18540916 please
You won't get (you)s fuck you

>>18540942
That's fine, but don't get triggered towards people who don't. It's the equivalent of downvoting on Reddit, but since you lack that feature here, you throw a bitchy tantrum instead. Calm the fuck down and try reassessing your whole life by putting things in perspective. These things don't matter in the grand scheme of things.

>>18540984
>You won't get (you)s fuck you
Here's one for you though, since (you)s seem that important to you, like some sort of reddit upvote.

>>18540955
A comma would've made the distinction of the two statements much clearer.
But whatever, it is still a nice image.
>>18540986
Is it reddit to disagree with people?

Sentence still botched, but the comma helps a bit

>>18541009
>Is it reddit to disagree with people?
It's reddit to throw a fit for what someone else wrote like >>18540896
It's reddit to act as if (you)s are the 4chan equivalent of reddit upvotes like >>18540984
It's not reddit to state any opinion or to dislike anything. People should be free to write any opinion and others have a right to disagree and argue against your point. But all I'm seeing these days are triggered bitch-fits by retarded liberal millenials.

>>18540250
If you weren't banned, then what's your point? People calling you out isn't censorship at all

>>18541009
>Is it reddit to disagree with people?
>posting on a site which literally has Rest in peace Billy as the banner across all boards
>muuh im just disagreeing guys XDD stop being so reddit!!

>>18541045
No but when half the people are throwing fits instead of debating whenever they hear something they don't like, this website starts to feel like a safespace full of triggered snowflakes. This isn't a college campus, people need to man the fuck up.

>>18541022
Cut out the "and" and it makes a little more sense.

>>18541070
Actually, it would even be better if it just said: "Seek the future and never turn back"

>>18541055
nobody wants to fucking "debate" you saying shit like "le gay meme man" and people are well within their rights to tell you to fuck off and go back to whatever shithole board you came from

>>18541055
You don't seem to grasp that there are genuine people who mourn after him.
I know you came here from reddit thinking this place is full of hackerz and edgy autists without feelings but that's not what this place is
and you would know if you weren't such a newfag
>college campus
>man the fuck up
oh kiddo....

>>18540217
>Come to website

>Get mad when people who believe something else call you a retard

I really doubt you've been here longer than two years.

>>18541078
>point out how redditors are shitting up 4chan
>get accused of being a redditor
Typical redditor debating skills right here.

>>18539683
Even throughout. There were /pol/tards and /v/ermin shitting up the thread. One of them was rallying anons for a "witch hunt" using Aniki's name, to no avail. And lots of newfags were pretending to be oldfags.

At the very least there were some newfags admitting not knowing the guy and offering condolences nonetheless.

>>18540891
Yeah, it has become a hugbox. A hugbox of people who hate everything except their "edgy" memes and shit on anyone who actually has the audacity to like something.

Fuck off faggot.

>>18541099

There's always been these guys shitposting just to go against the grain. Just ignore it, or BTFO him if you have banter skills. But instead all I see is people throwing fits, like you are right now.

>>18541121
no

>>18541121
or we could just call you a retard or a faggot and tell you to fuck off

>>18541121
What does it feel to have people wishing you were dead instead of "le gay wrestling man" you dislike so much?

This is the worst timeline.

https://imgur.com/a/iwqoS

>>18541112
I have a really shit memory, but I'll try recalling. I wanted to crop the post, but it appears that it was deleted.

There was some anon who was pointing at the degeneration of /v/ by /pol/, and that these degenerates, I believe he was referring to SJWs, were shitting up the 4chan that "Aniki created." Then he called for a "WITCH HUNT" at /v/. This was after some bickering between /pol/ and /v/ over how their thread is better than the other. Ultimately, this anon was shooed away for using Aniki's name for an agenda, same as the others who started useless arguments, and their posts got deleted.

>>18541205
I didn't know Billy had so many fans in Russia.

>>18541146
>>18541180
Again, I'm not the guy insulting Billy. I'm fine with him. Stop arguing against him, I think he already left anyway.

>>18541205
This is beautiful!

>newfags think it's trolling to call them newfags and tell them to lurk more
I hate this place
>>18541205

>>18541205

>>18541223
i don't think you realize people are calling you a faggot as well. you can fuck off too, i don't give a shit about "soy sjw triggered snowflake" or whatever the fuck nonsense you picked up on another board and decided to derail this thread with.

>>18541242
Does that QR code work? I need to know Mokous dying message

>>18541205
Wonderful that so many people could be touched by Billy's life. It is very sad he died but amazing to see how many peoples' lives he influenced in a positive way.

>>18541264
>reeeeee get out of my safespace because I don't like what you're saying!!!
I always thought Web 2.0 and influx of Boomers was what was going to kill the internet. Turns out it was the influx of Generation Z retards who grew up in a dystopian liberal wet dream like you who ultimately ruined every interaction, from Youtube to 4chan.

>>18541205
Aniki was a total bro until the very end, he deserves it

>>18541302
i don't think you've been around here very long if you think people saying "fuck off retard" is a new thing. now fuck off retard.

>>18541302
fuck off retard

>>18538752

Besides a few neo-nazi larping edge lords, there are a lot of good people on /pol/.

When it matters most they can prove to be some good lads.

It's a terrible day for rain.

>t.miss Billy.

>>18541354
/pol/ is like 75%
>neo-nazi larping edge lords
and it only got worse after 2016 orange man election

>>18541205
The fact that his death brought so many people across so many countries together speaks volumes of his legacy.
He was a beautiful person. Even if he's gone, a part of him lives on inside all of us.

>>18541354
You have to go back.

>>18541371
Not just in how he took time to talk to his fans and embraced his reputation and legacy, but also in how much of a genuinely good person he was who wanted to see everyone succeed. Many people felt genuinely inspired by Billy, especially when they got to meet him, and were able to better their lives because of it.

I know at least a couple people who initially got into video editing and mixing thanks to Gachimuchi actually ended up making a career out of it and spoke highly of Billy.

>>18541302
Fuck off retard

>>18540315
There is actually still a nice /b/ thread up now, though it is pretty full of newfags. /b/ was never good, etc., but man, that board is shit now.

/b/ - Camwhores and Porn

>>>/b/76188169

>>18541466
/b/ was never good.

>>18541466
Sorry, that's

>>>/b/761688169

/tg/'s thread is alright. Mostly.

>>18541535
That first post made me laugh out of reflex, then I just felt like shit.

Going through his twitter replies.

>>18541466
>/b/ - Camwhores and Porn
So why does >>>/soc/ exist then?

>>18541099
>lots of newfags were pretending to be oldfags
holy shit this

"Hey guys I've been posting here for ten years and I've never heard of this guy wtf!"

fucking seriously nigger

I suck at editing but I clicked this together in a few minutes.

>>18541668
I had some retard say he was apparently browsing imageboards longer than I've been alive after saying "i hate how people are making such a big deal about a gay pornstar
there were a few funny memes, but don't pretend like you actually give a fuck"

>>18540603
>> To us, Billy had been an indispensable part of many different threads. His videos made us smile, and I won't lie if I say that many people saved .webm gachi edits on their PCs. It's a big loss for every one of us.

>>18541690
thank you for this anon.

gachimuchi videos could cheer me up when nothing else could. I never got why, but they did. thank you, Billy. I'm sorry I never thanked you directly. they really meant a lot to me.

>>18541205
billy would like this

>>18541698
>don't pretend like you actually give a fuck
Not that anon but I can say I didn't really pay much attention to Aniki memes but when the person like him dies it kinda hits you.
I wonder how will people react when someone like Chuck Norris finally leaves this dirtball.

>>18541768
Yes he would. Damn it why did such a kind hearted person have to leave us so soon at 48 years old. So unfair.

>>18541750
Same. I would put them on when I was in a place of despair and trying to kill some time and I would feel cheered up by the ZUN tracks and lulz Aniki brought to us.

>>18541797
He was 48 and still as healthy as a horse.
It's not fucking fair.

>>18541797
He should have lived for a hundred years.

I'm still having trouble accepting this

It's still trending on moon twitter.

>>18540891
>soy-filled
>hugbox
>SJW
Could you be any more transparent? Fuck off you little /pol/ nigger. I can't believe you have the audacity to whine about being told to fuck off and then accuse the site of being a hugbox in the same breath. If you actually cared about the hugbox shit, you would have zero issue with being told to fuck off. You're the one that seems to desire that this site be your hugbox.

>>18541861
>replying to a post from almost 3h ago to throw a hissy fit
Good job proving him wrong, fucktard.

He was to good to be alive.

>>18541205
Why are russians so cool?

>>18541886
*too
Man with a big heart won't be forgotten.

>>18541877
This might shock you, but this isn't /pol/. /jp/ is a slow board, three hours isn't very old for a post.

>>18541912
Not him, 3h was still long enough for his post to be several pages down.
Just fucking ignore him, he had his fun and fucked off.

>>18541912
Yeah but the guy obviously left and 3h in real life time is a lot in a day. If you weren't a NEET, maybe you'd know that people rarely have the time to sit in front of the computer all day.

I was never big into gachimuchi although I did stumble into some stuff occasionally and enjoyed it. Billy dying didn't have that much of an impact on me on its own, but it reminded me of how this site is slowly changing and how the things that initially drew me in a decade ago are fading away. I don't think the change is all bad but you get attached to the way things used to be when you've spent a good chunk of your life here. I'm glad there are still some other anons left over from those early days that can appreciate the classics.

Here's my favorite gachi. Sweet dreams Aniki.

>>18541927
I'm the person he was responding to though, it's not as if I just now hopped in this thread and that was my first post.
>>18541930
I left 2 hours ago and came back, saw someone had replied to me and replied in kind. Again, you're just displaying that you're not from this board, and are ignorant as to how posting works here. It's a much slower board than you're used to, you don't just sit in a thread as it constantly refreshes and have conversations and discussions in real time.

>>18542003
>I left 2 hours ago and came back, saw someone had replied to me and replied in kind. Again, you're just displaying that you're not from this board, and are ignorant as to how posting works here.

At this point, you're a better example of someone ruining this website than the guy you've been arguing with for hours. How about you go to Facebook or Reddit with that shit?

I feel like we should collect all the tributes that have been pouring out and present them to his family either digitally or physically.
Any anons want to help work on this? Maybe make a collage?

Is anyone else surprised on the impact his death had? Even fucking /pol/ has RIP threads still.

>>18542084
This is a great idea. I think his mom deserves to know how many people loved him.

>>18542084
Unless someone who lives close to Aniki's family steps up, digital is the only way. I'd like to help in any way digitally, though don't really know what to do.

>>18542092
I'm in NYC so if he's still out in Long Island I can realistically do it. Has there been any talk of funeral arrangements or does his family want to keep it private?

>>18542033
That you think it's somehow strange or "reddit" to post in a thread without being glued to it is very telling. Do you have any idea what posting on this site was like ten years ago? Of course you don't, because you've been here a year or two at best. The idea of a thread staying up for more than a few hours is probably mind-boggling to you.

https://www.reddit.com/r/gachimuchi/comments/82116t/in_the_memory_of_billy_herrington_memorials_from/

>>18538762
This is the sad truth. Newfags ruin EVERYTHING.

>>18542141
It was still glorified chatroom speeds on bad boards like /b/ years ago But on smaller boards, slower posting been the norm as long as I remember.(back to ~2011~12)

>>18542086
>check the /pol/ thread
>apparently everyone has been on 4chan since 1975 but haven't heard of him
I know it's the easiest bait to release at this time but what do you even gain from it
This event made me reconsider why I wasted so much time here trying to troll and bait people, but others can't have enough of it it seems

I really wish I had the skill to make the Gachimuchi videos everyone else makes

>>18542156
People are going to give you shit for posting reddit links, but I appreciate you wanting to share the respects people are paying to Aniki throughout the world.

>>18542110
I checked out his mom's facebook and there isn't any information about the funeral.

Billy was a great guy and wonderful motivator. He's pushed me to try a lot of things I wouldn't of without him around. I wish I knew how I could get over the fact that he's not around anymore. I'm still having troubles coming to terms with him being just.. Gone.

Watch me, anons. I will become a better person for Aniki, starting with my body. If I ever find myself standing in front of a cheering audience, I will dedicate my achievement to "a gay pornstar named Billy Herrington, Aniki."

Ehh... it was just some random degenerate homosexual bodybuilder. All those disgusting sinful acts finally caught up with it. They always do. Fine by me. Sage.

>>18542180
Usually the funeral date is picked after a few weeks. Might be some cultural differences, though.

>>18542524
>being this edgy
this is a place of respect

I'm sick of hearing of his death because most people ''celebrating'' him are underaged newfags who weren't there when the meme even began, and who overcompensate with their bereavement to virtue signal that they've been here longer than they actually were. The mention at the top of the 4chan page and initial stickies were sufficient, but this over the top sadness for his death is just cancer.

>>18542637
Or maybe not everyone is as cynical and jaded as you, and others are only just finding out. It's only been a day my dude.

>>18542645
>tfw was out exploring some cave and missed the threads

>>18542637

Surveillance footage of you at home.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1QFEAk2hpvI

>>18542645
Yeah, or I'm spot on with my supposition which is why you're getting all pissy and defensive. Most here know I'm right. Virtue signaling bereavement is what normies do, just like you read on Facebook when a celeb dies or when there's some shooting somewhere.

>>18538670
what does futaba think of this? DO they even know

>>18542674
You at Library.

>>18539683
They did but the mods actually pulled up their pants got deleted all of their posts so that /a/ could mourn aniki in peace

>>18542582
Who are you quoting?

>>18542637
Pretty much. I was aware of it way back when but I don't subscribe to the mind poison that these liberal indoctrinated public school kiddies get into. Some mentally sick dude that chose to be a homosexual decided to live his life in a cesspool and then died. Big whoop.

>>18542674
Yeah, because being sad that someone died is such a radical concept. And can you please explain how virtue signaling works on an anonymous image board?

>>18542691
>listens to mainstream media to form his opinion on fake internet movements
Well at least now I know you're either underaged or a retarded liberal, or both.

>>18542713
Could you stop emberassing urself lmao

>>18542713

>>18540004
I mean that kinda makes sense. /tv/ doesn't really have anything to do with aniki.

>>18542693
Censorship and filtering peoples thoughts and opinions is something you and your democratic buddies must think is the bees knees for this country huh?

>>18542730
this. he has a place on this website but 4chan wasn't created just for gachiposting

>>18542710
>And can you please explain how virtue signaling works on an anonymous image board?
I don't know, why don't you this faggot >>18542141 who replied to me by showing off about how long he's been on here? No use for that behavior on an anonymous board, yet here you have people doing so, clear as day.

>>18542735
>censoring and filtering peoples thoughts and opinions
"literally who?" is an opinion now, right

>>18542524
>disgusting sinful acts caught up with him
>dies in a car crash
probably bait but here's your (you)

>>18542735
I'm sorry anon, but a country censoring it's citizens is not the same as mods allowing people to mourn Aniki's death undisturbed.

I knew I was going to regret batch renaming 13 years of chan pics to random gibberish at some point.

brb drink. RIP Aniki.

Gone to the Unseen
At last you have departed and gone to the Unseen.
What marvelous route did you take from this world?

Beating your wings and feathers,
you broke free from this cage.
Rising up to the sky
you attained the world of the soul.
You were a prized falcon trapped by an Old Woman.
Then you heard the drummer's call
and flew beyond space and time.

As a lovesick nightingale, you flew among the owls.
Then came the scent of the rosegarden
and you flew off to meet the Rose.

The wine of this fleeting world
caused your head to ache.
Finally you joined the tavern of Eternity.
Like an arrow, you sped from the bow
and went straight for the bull's eye of bliss.

This phantom world gave you false signs
But you turned from the illusion
and journeyed to the land of truth.

You are now the Sun -
what need have you for a crown?
You have vanished from this world -
what need have you to tie your robe?

I've heard that you can barely see your soul.
But why look at all? -
yours is now the Soul of Souls!

O heart, what a wonderful bird you are.
Seeking divine heights,
Flapping your wings,
you smashed the pointed spears of your enemy.

The flowers flee from Autumn, but not you -
You are the fearless rose
that grows amidst the freezing wind.

Pouring down like the rain of heaven
you fell upon the rooftop of this world.
Then you ran in every direction
and escaped through the drain spout . . .

Now the words are over
and the pain they bring is gone.
Now you have gone to rest
in the arms of the Beloved.

>>18542674
>virtue signaling
Most here can tell you're a crossboarder from /pol/. And it's hilarious that you're calling anyone "pissy and defensive".
>>18542744
lol so it is you. I brought up how long I've been here because it's obvious that you have zero understanding of how 4chan operates outside of /pol/, or how it used to operate.

>>18542800

>>18541205
You guys are great. It's great to see so many tributes, so many anons coming back to this board after long hiatuses, all because of Billy. The way it should be.

>>18542826
Yea and not 2 faggots fighting about some stupid shit.

>>18541205
Post this stuff on Twitter or other social medias, I suppose his relatives might get some kind of relieve to see so many fans.

You guys know HE made videos acting extremely gay and fucking MEN right? Disgusting.

The sad deranged guy was a literal cock sucking faggot and I am not talking about bundles of wood.

I'm happy you can still laugh ...

For me the song evokes very strong emotions though. All of saddening nature.

>>18543643
I'm laughing through the tears. I think that's how Aniki would like it

>barely knew aniki outside of gachimuchi vids
>only now found out that he had a family and got a puppy a month ago, and was an overall down to earth and kind man who wanted to have fun with everyone

this fucking hurts more than it should
RIP aniki, you made 2012 and the rest of the years a whole lot funner

I hope the coroners and people on the scene took some pics/vids to share so we can watch some hilarious meme videos.

>>18543682
DELET

>>18543672
Same anon. I only really looked into his life the past day and realized how sweet he was. Even if I didn't know him, he was still part of my life in some small way.

>>18543682
that would be hot

>>18543682
They did take pics at a minimum, they're obligated to. It won't leak though.

TONGUE THAT SHAFT

>>18543798

OH YES SIR

>>18543777
You never know. Especially these days. I was talking to some of my friends over at YTMND and they are working on a few funny sites.

I still cant believe it has happened, Billy....

CHOW DOWN ON THAT MAN

https://youtu.be/W2wrtoloJ6k

>>18543950
Didn't knew his son was so young. Heartbreaking

>>18543950
I hate this, how much worse can the death of a person be? A little child and a puppy left behind, him being a total bro, this is just too much.

>>18543971
If he's gay why does he have a kid? Unless this photo was taken way before he came out to be gay full time

>>18544026
he's straight/bi

>>18544026
He's bi. He has a wife and son.

>>18544029
Didn't he get into gay porn after his GF sent his pictures to Playgirl?

>>18543950
If that boy wasn't in protective custody before because of having a dad that was a child molesting homosexual, he will be now.

what's the backstory on billy somehow becoming the focus of those aniki videos?

are they related to the cho aniki super nintendo game?

>>18544048

>>18543950
I can imagine this kid being bullied at school for his fag father, with some fat/lanky anon coming to his rescue, only for him to get beaten up, too. Alternately, a /fit/ guy swoops in and scares the bullies away.

We should make some kind of promise to help this kid out when it comes to father-related problems like above.

>>18544055
Japanese equivalent of rickrolling AFAIK that got popular

>>18544059
Whatever dude. I wouldn't want my kid or any kid around a guy who did (at least in the past) that sick shit. Homos have sex on their minds full time and the odds that the homo is a child molester jumps dramatically compared to strait males. Queers are kiddie fiddlers man.

>>18544055
Its wikia, so read with a pinch of salt, but it appears to be started from bait-and-switch videos.
http://gachimuchi.wikia.com/wiki/Gachimuchi

>>18544055
This >>18544072
But you're not far off with the cho aniki thing. Gachi is certainly in the continuation of gay memes they had over there, the same continuation which includes cho aniki.

>>18544068
I doubt Aniki's career would influence much of his kid life, he probably seemed straight enough for most people who weren't aware of his videos.

>>18544085
this is gonna work

>>18544085
You're not wrong, about 90% of pedophiles are also homosexuals. But not all homosexuals are pedophiles (although a huge proportion of them turned out gay because they were molested by a gay pedophile during childhood). Billy wasn't the type of homosexual which would be a pedophile. I don't think.

Reminder to ignore and report shiposts.

>>18544109
Don't reply

>>18544126
Your not the boss of me now.

GUYS GUYS GUYS
WE SHOULD BUILD A MONUMENT FOR BILLY
I THINK IT WON'T BE SO HARD TO GATHER MONEY

>>18544097
Perhaps just an informal agreement, kinda. You never know, maybe some closet faggot friend of his stumbles upon Aniki's videos and spills the beans on everyone.

>>18544187
Where would you put it?

>>18544199
He wants something to insert into his anal canal.

"There's gonna be a time in my life where I'm 100 years old, I'm gonna be a very old man, this is the time in my life I will really look back and appreciate. It's a gift, it's not just a gift for me, but I try very hard to give back to my fans, they expect something from me"

>>18544227
>said in an interview only a couple of years ago
>he never got to reach 100
>because of a car accident
This is too tragic for me, miss you Aniki.

>>18544227
this hurts man

Is there a lot of recordings of Aniki saying inspirational stuff? I'm not very versed at technology, but I can take the time to learn how to edit audio and create a folder of Aniki lines, which I plan to listen to when I'm in a pinch.

don't tell japan

>>18544187
I don't know. I think what he would prefer is just spreading the love around

I left this photo of Aniki on the lakefront in Chicago behind behind the planetarium along with some flowers and a pile of protein powder and creatine. The powder will blow into the lake from the wind, and pass, so as do men, and eventually the waves will overtake Aniki and carry his image out into the water.

RIP Aniki

>>18544462
Beautiful shot anon

>>18544462
Really beautiful
I'll try to get some tribute to Aniki this week

>>18544462

It really hurts to see you go.
Hopefully you're the new boss of whatever afterlife there is' gym.

They're only showing how new they are by mentioning Twitch and not mentioning the countless anime opening parodies that involved Billy and the gang.

>>18540362

What the fuck is Twitch and why was Aniki on it?

>>18544681
Its a streaming platform for gamers. Gamers sometime stream some random background music, and some of them are Gachigasm music.

>>18544711
Ah, that makes sense why he was on /v/ then. I haven't been on /v/ since

>I HAVE THREE PS3s

The sticky thread is on page 10. Please go give your final words if you so wish.

Why don't you stay on /v/, greentexter.

Why dont you just fuck off

All the greentext, posts saying /pol/ is good, all-lowercase, Wojak/Pepe pictures, etc. in this thread... Fucking disgusting.

why am I crying, i didnt even knew the guy
but the fact that he had a family, that he still had a lot of time left and was so nice

people like him die all the time but you just dont know, but now i thought that, I am even sadder and i cant stop feeling so bad

A dream, as in something you see while sleeping, right?
By throwing away that boring common sense, I finally became an adult

I'm not afraid of people talking behind my back
So I'll become more honest once more, at the place I got from you

Even if it's sad, even though I regret it, I'll dream of the future for a bit
Even I still have the power to believe like a kid

As I'm at zero now, when will it become a plus?
No idea, but if I don't go, then I won't be able to move, so I gotta follow it

I've come so far that there's no going back
I use everything I've received from you as a guide

Feeling happy, becoming kind, I got stronger than before
See, things I'm capable of are increasing little by little

I'm not afraid of people talking behind my back, you know?
You taught me that dream is what you see while you eyes are open

Even if it's sad, even though I regret it, I'll dream more
My capability is still shining like a falling star

You see, by smiling a bit and crying from time to time, I can become stronger than now
So the future will surely shine like how a kid believe

In the pale light of rain showers
From the beloved faces of winter daphnes
Buds of tears overflow as
One by one, their fragrance emerges

And that, that, crosses the skies
Soon, soon, they’ll come for me

Spring, far-off spring, as I close my eyes, right there
You, who has given me love, I hear your nostalgic voice

Like the falling rain, like the falling petals

My heart, which I've entrusted to you
Is still waiting for your answer
No matter how much time passes
Always, always, I will wait

And that, that, crosses tomorrow
Someday, someday, it’ll definitely reach you

Spring, as-yet-unseen spring, whenever I feel lost and stop
You, who has given me dreams, your gaze embraces me

Dreams, superficial dreams, I am here
Thinking of you, I walk alone
Like the falling rain, like the falling petals

Spring, far-off spring, as I close my eyes, right there
You, who has given me love, I hear your nostalgic voice
Spring, as-yet-unseen spring, whenever I feel lost and stop

You, who has given me dreams, your gaze embraces me

We all love you Aniki, may you show them who the boss of the gym is in heaven and may you never be forgotten.

Sleep tight, Aniki.

Death maybe natural, but that doesn't make it any less painful for the living.

I need to play my repsects before this blows over . I will admit im a newfag only been here a year or soo but me and my friend watched alot of gachi parodies and only after his death did i find out he was such a good guy . I would say i would gladly die instead of him but i feel that he wouldnt want that to happen.

>>18547281
Try becoming what aniki would have wanted. Exercise, train and enjoy life in any way you can. His sudden death is a sad reminder it can end any time

If a guy which starred in a gay porn can make a loving family and enjoy people's affection, so can you. Go for it anon

>>18542637
So like when moot left?

Did jewtube take down some of the R.I.P. videos for Aniki? I added some last night to my watch later, but it seems that they got deleted.

>>18547567
A bunch that I liked are still up

>>18544462
Beautiful tribute, anon. Billy/Aniki would be proud.

I'm still here, hoping that it was all a false alarm.
Aniki will be posting a video of him in stitches, saying the crash was crazy and telling everyone to be careful when driving.
Or he will tweet that he's surprised about people over the internet mourning his death even though he was just shooting a reunion with Van.

Aniki, make me believe ;_;
