Bullshit, you just said that to look cool.

Working!

either higurashi or umineko.
but we prefer the VNs.

Whatever Sion posts.

>>5591845

It's a kid's anime, I wouldn't say it to look cool.

Heavy shit was always going down in every single episode. So many people died. It was like Tetsuro HAD to watch someone die every time they touched down at a planet, with a few exceptions. If I was Tetsuro, I would have stayed on the train and had sex with Maetel. But then mad shit wouldn't have happened to me like it did to him.

Aki-Sora.

how does gundam wing even look gay

Black Lagoon.

Evangelion is Nasu's favorite anime.

>>5591859
Evangelion is a piece of moldy cowshit.

Cowboy Bebop

Who watches anime?

/m/echa wise? Jeeg, Gaogaigar final or big O

Otherwise kemonozume, Baccano, Space adventure cobra

but I read alot more manga than I watch anime though.

Strawberry Marshmallow
So many fond memories.

Probably gits or Seirei no Moribito.
In any case this isn't the board for these questions, reported.

>>5591863

Hold it right there, troll. I'm arresting you in the name of /jp/ for spreading misinformation.

>>5591869
Let's list our favorite manga instead, as anime is not so good.

For me it'd have to be Angel Densetsu, although Hidamari Sketch is wonderful in a completely different way.

I only treasure selected frames of animation that contain assorted Char Aznable antics.
The rest is shit.

Baccano, though honestly, Eva comes close.

Hidamari Sketch.

I've given up trying to explain this to the people I know

personnally my favorite is still baccano. but i dont watch anime much now.

I remember posting this picture with no text at /co/.

Having a differing opinion from the norm does not make a person a troll. I thought Eva was pretty damn stupid. A lot of people like to say it had depth, but it really didn't. It doesn't make you think like Umineko, it's just philosophical false deep bullshit. The characters were utterly boring and I couldn't connect to them at all. I don't think Shinji made for a very believable introvert, this coming from an extreme introvert. I could go on but why bother, you're just going to call me a troll as apparently Anno is god.

>>5591878

>Let's list our favorite manga instead,

INITIAL DDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

Oh god, I loved it so much. I was actually going to fucking go to Japan and just be a hardcore Touge drift racer.

Then I discovered the magic of weed and figured I'd stay here instead.

Legend of the Galactic Heroes

>>5591878
Gyakusou Shoujo, I suppose, but I've given up on ever reading the whole thing

Here it is. Though the favorite galge will probably change in a few weeks.

>>5591893
You don't sound like a troll. I'm an Evafag and I can get where you're coming from. Most of the "DEEP" stuff was bullshit put in to, well, look deep and do nothing else. The characters come off as flat and one-dimensional sometimes and revert back to simple deconstructions of character types. I think a lot of the hype is because of nostalgia, and because at one point, it was -the- series for...well, anything.

>>5591893
>>5591916

samefag

>>5591878
Angel densetsu was awesome.

hell all the old jump series are great.

Besides the staples like dorohedoro, jojo berserk etc

A couple I've really been enjoying lately are Gamble fish, Kaibutsu Oujo, Wolf Guy, Nana to kaoru, 337 biyooshi, Sankarea, Onikirisama no Hakoiri Musume, Mushi to medama to teddy bear, house with an orange roof and love lucky which were both recently completed, sunken rock, strongest man kurosawa, sekitou elegy, and tons more crap.

My favorite anime is Gunbuster.
My favorite manga is Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou.
My favorite visual novel is Sharin no Kuni.
My favorite Japanese video game is Doukutsu Monogatari.
My favorite Japanese movie is Tokyo Fist.
My favorite Japanese CD is Pink by Boris.
My favorite Japanese book is Suna no Onna by Kobo Abe.
My favorite /jp/ thread is hoopdog.jpg

>>5591916
Thanks, I appreciate the sentiment. I apologize for getting offensive about it. I suppose that's just a bit of ill feelings which I picked up back when I used to browse /a/. /a/ Evafans were so obnoxious about it. Contrary to that, you seem like a rather pleasant fellow.

I don't think Evangelion deserves the praise it gets.

>>5591893
The opinion of the negro you replied to doesn't counts and plenty of fags here(including myself) dislike Evangelion and/or Anno.

>>5591918
No, not really, bro.

As far as manga goes, I like too many series to choose a favourite, but for light novels I'd have to go with Baccano again, or anything at all by Nisioisin.

>>5591837

Nigger it's Evangelion but what the fuck this is not >>>/a/. I mean what is happening?

Look I even made a link for you. Just click that shit and you're fucking aces.

The anime adaptation of Blood Alone was a lot better than I expected. It's definitely in my top 3.

>>5591928

That's because you are one dumb dicksucker. Don't you dare say some mean shit about Evangelion. Anno is fucking BRO TIER ALL DAY.

>>5591931
/a/ is a bad place to discuss anime

>>5591935
But Anno treats his fans like shit.

>>5591919
Oh and my favorite manga of all time is probably Guyver.

As it was introduced to me at a tender age and has continued to be an awesome scifi story.

>>5591928
>Magical Index !MOONRXwPDU
I don't think you should say this with your awful taste.

I like Natsume Yuujinchou, and I'm the only person I know that likes Natsume Yuujinchou. But it's understandable, because the anime is pretty homo/touchy-feely. Thanks for listening to my story.

>>5591939
And he's right.

>>5591919
>Nana to kaoru

YES! I haven't read that in a while. I need to get on that. Also, today I've strangely been craving rereading the first half of Gantz for some reason, despite how mediocre it was.

Favorite anime: Legend of the Galactic Heroes
Favorite manga: Freesia

I have a developmental disorder where I find all manga but Franken Fran boring.

>>5591939

What the fuck? Since when do artists give three shits about being nice to their fans? They're artists. They're cool. Who fucking cares we're not talking about who we'd introduce to our fucking sister or taking the motherfucker out to knock a few brewskis back, you silly motherfucker.

Mahoraba. I fucking love Mahoraba.

>>5591939
That's because Anno is permanently frustrated for not begin able to reach troll nirvana like Tomino.
Also, stop replying to hilarious trolls.

Just joking, i haven't even finished Evangleion yet.

But i like GTO best.

>>5591959

My sister had that.

>>5591964
GTO was so good (although it got a bit redundant). I wonder how the anime compared to the manga, since I haven't watched it.

>>5591959
Have you read leviathan?

Its an odd medical story like franken fran but incredibly gay.

>>5591969
The OP and ED were god tier.

Driver's High is now playing in your head.

Marimite

>>5591946
I like Natsume Yuujinchou but my favourites are Mushishi and Aoi Hana.
Favourite manga at the moment is Hoshi no Samidare

>>5591979
>>5591946
I enjoyed the manga till it got really fucking repetitive.

>>5591963
Wasn't it the other way? Like Tomino being pissed off after watching Eva and directing Brain Powerd thanks to this. He probably felt out-trolled by Anno remaking Ideon with otaku tropes and printing money with it.

Also Anno is a Sailor Moon fan. I bet it reminds Tomino of Nagano cosplaying and stealing his waifu.

>>5591964

I don't even know who is trolling who anymore.

Finish watching Evangelion? How old are you? There's no fucking excuse for this. The shit has been domestically licensed and even dubbed for your illiterate ass since Jesus took Moses to the Ark.

You're on the computer right now! Open a new tabby thing and just GOOGLE that bitch then add torrent to the end of it. Like "EVANGELION + TORRENT".

BAM. Now feast your eyes and ears and brain to some heavy duty trippy ass navel gazing mumbo jumbo.

I'm fucking serious. Don't come back until you're done.

Oh, also. The first half of the show sucks but you have to sit through it in order to appreciate the rich dichotomy between its candy-flossed genera and the philosophical shit. GO.

>>5591992
I already finished 10 episodes.

>>5591992
I don't get how you assume no one could possibly dislike your favorite show.

>>5591992

>The first half of the show sucks

oh God

>>5591989

HEY FUCK YOU ANNO IS GOOD PEOPLE AND HIS DICK CAN PLEASE ANY WOMAN. TOMINO BLACKMAILED ANNO'S WIFE INTO LEAVING HIM AND COMING TO THE DARK SIDE. SHE GETS RAPED EVERY NIGHT FOR THE REST OF HER LIFE DON'T YOU FEEL LIKE AN ASSHOLE NOW?

>>5591992 The first half of the show sucks
Fuck no.
The first half is an awesome monster-of-the-week show.
Man, this is why people hate Eva fans.

I wonder why people hated evangelion.

Shinji or the Marketing?

>>5592002

HEhehEhEHeHehE.

Haibane Renmei maybe. But choosing just one is hard, you know?
>>5591878
Jojo or One Piece.

>>5592003
But I invented nothing.
Why the cruise control?

So all that psychological drama kicks in the 2nd half.

I'd better be prepared.

>>5591910
Vagabond and LoGH, hell yeah motherfucker

>>5592006
The fans.

It's always the fans.

>>5592017
Prepare to be congratulated, Shinji.

>>5592005

No. This is why America gets all the bullshit imported first... because dumb fucking weeaboo shitheads like yourself can't wrap their heads around the subtle existentialism of some of the genre's great works.

You want monster of the week? Go watch Scooby Doo, you dumb faggot.

>>5592022
Yep. Without the fans it's just an average trying-to-be-too-much show. It's not really that good or that bad. The fans just convince everyone to hate it.

>>5592028

>hating on scooby doo

Oh my God dude you did not just go there.

>>5592017
The psychological drama is always there.
The second half is where the whole overarching really starts to kicks in (for better and for worst in my opinion).

>>5592018

Those are both really good, too.

why is everyone raging about evanjelly donut?

>>5592035

Not hating just stating, playa.

I'm surprised no one said Gurren Lagann yet

>>5592028

Don't you lure me into an Eva argument son

>>5592038
One fan doesn't know how to admit differing tastes. You like what he likes or get the fuck out.

>>5592028
Scooby Doo may have catchy theme songs and all, but it's still a kodomo sitcom.

>>5592038

Yeah, there's actually no rage in this thread. I'm just being silly.

>>5592039

Okay, because Scooby-Doo is basically the best thing to watch when you're baked.

>>5592040
It was awesome, no one said it because the trolling would start, You know the same thing that happens with any Gainex anime without buster in the title.

>>5592028
I love Eva, and you don't even know what existentialism means.

Why should I argue with a retard like you?

>>5592053
His and her circumstances were good.

>>5592049
Fraggle rock was here. Cactus is one hell of a drug.

>>5592053
You mean that there's people hating on Nadia?
Because that's a great anime, despite the KOREAN QUALITY.

>>5592057
Kare Kano is GREAT (despite some bad episodes on the end).
Best direction for an anime serie, from far (and it's like they invented a new animation technique each episode!).

FLCL took so much from this serie.

>>5592056

No, little feller, I'm pretty sure it's YOU that doesn't understand existentialism - the 15 year old who likes Evangelion for the monster fights. Now chillax. I can feel your pimples pulse from here.

>>5592057

It was, although the arcs that Anno wasn't involved with were kinda lame. It moved me, though... and that's saying something.

Making anime out of VNs is a crime.

>>5592104
Arc on the right.

>>5592093
I watched evangelion because it had giant robots fighting monsters and you know what, if it didn't it would have been a pretty crappy anime.

>>5592036

This is a valid criticism and I was oversimplifying for the sake of comedy earlier. I thoroughly love the whole show.

>>5592110
German Vampire Princess!

>>5592111

I don't think so.

My job is so fucking unbelievable. I'll try to sum it up by first telling you about the folks I work with:

First, there is this supermodel wanna-be chick. Yeah, okay, she is pretty hot, but damn is she completely useless. The girl is constantly fixing her hair or putting on makeup. She is extremely self-centered and has never once considered the needs or wants of anyone but herself. She is as dumb as a box of rocks, and I still find it surprising that she has enough brain power to continue to breathe.

The next chick is completely the opposite. She might even be one of the smartest people on the planet. Her career oppertunities are endless, and yet she is here with us. She is a zero on a scale of 1 to 10. I'm not sure she even showers, much less shaves her "womanly" parts. I think she might be a lesbian, because every time we drive by the hardware store, she moans like a cat in heat.

But the jewel of the crowd has got to be the fucking stoner. And this guy is more than just your average pothead. In fact, he is baked before he comes to work, during work, and I'm sure after work. He probably hasn't been sober anytime in the last ten years, and he's only 22. He dresses like a beatnik throwback from the 1960's, and to make things worse, he brings his big fucking dog to work. Every fucking day I have to look at this huge Great Dane walk around half-stoned from the second-hand smoke. Hell, sometimes I even think it's trying to talk with its constant bellowing. Also, both of them are constantly hungry, requiring multiple stops to McDonalds and Burger King, every single fucking day.

Anyway, I drive these fucktards around in my van and we solve mysteries and shit.

Favorite anime:
Gunbuster
Tekkaman Blade
Gundam 0080
Kino's Journey

Favorite movies:
My neighbour Totoro
Mind Game

Favorite manga:
Azumanga Daioh
Diadem
One Piece

Favorite VN:
I've only played three, so I don't feel I'm in any position to say

Favorite JP video game:
Cave Story
Super Mario Bros. 3
Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island
(Fuck you, Super Mario World is a great game, but inferior to both SMB3 and SMW2:YI)

lol that guy is me

But anyway, nice Scooby-Doo copypasta.

>>5592093
I like both the action scenes and the psychological ones, because you see I'm not a close-minded faggot.
And if Sartre was alive he would kick in the nuts the retarded Eva-fans who thinks their favorite anime is existentialist.

What does /jp/ think of K-ON?

>>5592123
Someone add in a part about random people laughing out of no where please. Nice copypasta.

>>5592139
Horrible.

>>5592139
Guilty pleasure.

So I guess /jp/ has better taste than /a/ in pretty much everything.

>>5592139
Manga is pretty average.

>>5592138

Oh, I'm quite certain you are FLUENT in the works of Jean-Paul Sartre. I have no doubt that you yearn to discuss Camus by candlelight after a night of robust gay sex while your lover pretends his dick is an angel and your butthole is Tokyo-3.

Legend of Galactic Heroes

But people need to stop bumping this shit thread.

>>5592139
I liked that military girl with the Yukari eyebrows.
She can carry extremely heavy equipment, my kind of waifu.

Oh man, it sure is gay as fuck to learn philosophy in real books instead of watching a Japanese cartoon.
Nice way of showing that you love to use words without knowing their meanings, since for you being cultured equal loving men.
You know what? I even read Sartre in french. You can add this to your homoerotic fantasy, if it makes your nipples erect.

>>5592179
We were pretty much all /a/nons at one point before the split. From time to time the need to discuss anime just spills out a little. At least there was some decent discussion going on.
