She's not a preteen, she's just very small.

She is token loli character inserted to satiate pedophiles.

Stiyl is 14.

>Watching Index
Just how low have you gotten?

>>6698130
Thanks! :) That makes it acceptable then. I felt bad taking her as my waifu but not any more.

>>6698137
Index is full of loli. You are full of stupid.

>>6698141
I watched railgun a while back and didn't know about Index, I downloaded it to see what it was, and it's pretty cool, yo.

>>6698122

>>6698169
Doesnt know about light novels.

>>6698169
Yes? What about it?

She's like Gary Coleman.

>>6698169
Yes, you go there together with OP.

>>6698168
>watching Railgun
I see. That's pretty low indeed.

>>6698176

I'm still not gonna read Index until they translate the first fucking chapters.

TWO COMES BEFORE SEVEN, GUYS
THREE COMES BEFORE SIXTEEN

>>6698185
And I'm not gonna touch the Index series for the rest of my life. Honestly, there are shitloads of better LNs for you to spend your time reading instead of Raildex shit.

>>6698202
I don't read it. Why would I look at comic book and manga shit when I can just watch the anime. It's animated, with voices, and just better. Not even trolling. I wouldn't waste my time on reading.

>>6698221
I ain't got no learnin

>>6698230

>>6698221
I bet this is how the average Roman argued before the barbarians ground their civilization into dust

>>6698230
I've never been a fan of choosing to read something that has a visual/animated counterpart.

It's like if you read Star Wars and never saw the movies you'd just be a gigantic faggot, where if you saw the movies you could write your own books and wouldn't need to read the book version. Same with Lord of the Rings, etc.

So no, I don't feel bad for watching anime and disregarding black and white comic book bullshit.

>watching railgun before index

>6698221

There's sometimes material too complex or too adult for tv that you can only read in light novels or manga.

>>6698247
Enjoy your inferior reproductions then. I mean that honestly, since they seem to fit your shit taste just fine.

>>6698317

If anything Index anime is very faithful to the original novel.

>>6698221
Sorry to bother you

Would you mind taking this and posting your score? I think it would greatly help in trying to make an image for yourself.

>>6698202
Sure you aren't affected by the fanbase that has grown from the anime, and the anime itself, and things stemming from /a/, and the spam?

Personally I read, with much trouble, the first volume when it was new, although, I guess it was more akin to someone reading it to me as I needed help with every off sentence or so.
In either case, I found it to be great, perhaps not the best thing ever or anything like that, but great nonetheless.

I have been trying to keep up the divide between the novels and everything else ever since the adaptations started.

>>6698339
Doesn't mean much when it's still shit in the end.

Oh no /jp/ what are you doing guys.

>>6698330
If anything, it's often the otherway around. Just look at that bullshit they're pulling with Bakuman for example.

>>6698247
>'ve never been a fan of choosing to read something that has a visual/animated counterpart.
That has little to do with it.

Different media has different strengths and weaknesses, and in either case they do different things.
And no, no media is "better" than the other, but in the process of making Media A into Media B, some degree of quality lost in the conversion, same thing when converting Media B into Media A.
It is just like translations you know, of regular language.
If you take a written work, and then translate it through all the written languages of today and back, chances are you won't even recognize it.

Originals > Adaptations.

>>6698247
Your logic is flawed. Starwars was a movie first. Index is a novel first. Now if you wanted to use Harry Potter as your argument then you would have a good comparison. You would still look like a moron but at least you would be accurate.

>>6698147

I would feel bad taking someone over 18 as mai waifu...

>>6698400
Looking like a moron for having a preference for visual stimulation over reading hundreds of pages over a much larger time frame, having to disregard many distractions to enjoy it, and having to imagine every single detail of voice, etc.

Yep, itsyourturntohaveautism.jpg

>>6698408
Sounds like you got ADD, half a brain, and no imagination. I think autism would be a step up from where you are right now.

>>6698419
You're obviously a fool.

>>6698419
No, its 2 to 1 you have autism.

>>6698439
I took the autism test and it came back negative.

Sorry to inform you but you're a fool. Samefagging won't help you, or validate you or your argument.

>>6698455
Sounds like your doctor has autism as well.

>>6698408
You cannot possibly argue that animation with audio is definately better than a written original no matter how bad the quality loss?

If one was to take a book, and ruin the entire story on purpose, and then make a movie out of it, then you wouldn't be able to say that it is better, would you?
Now, people don't try to ruin stories when they adapt them to a medium other than the original one, in fact they try hard for to not ruin it at all.

But no matter them trying, quality loss is still as a general rule present in the conversion from one medium to another.

>>6698519
Dont try to explain difficult things to him. He has autism. He is also a byproduct of No Child Left Behind. I doubt he has ever read anything more challenging than a cereal box.

I remember when the first season started to air. The series seemed to be a pretty bad shounen crap fest with a terrible plot and illogical mc which forced me to stop watching the series after episode 4. Haven't looked backed at it but judging from all the screencaps that are spamed throughout 4chan they must have changed the premise of the show into a fanservice galore. Doesn't even mean that they completely lost it but turned the tides into their favor.

>>6698595
Nah, it always had a fan service subplot. Actually the anime isnt half as bad as the original is. It all stems from the illustrator for the LN, he is a porn artist. One of the best ever.

>>6698583
You are so buttraged.

>>6698607
Buttraged at what?

I really like how the book worms posting here believe their lives have more value because they read novels that are considered trash literature, sold for 50c and serialized in pulp magazines only a few decades ago.

>>6698618
Not to bright are you. You are basing what you think we read on a single thread? I hardly think that this is /lit/ and anything else would be relevant to this board or thread.

>>6698627
You're the ignorant cunt insulting people on 4chan, thinking your own opinion is fact. I think that probably makes you the one who isn't too bright.

>>6698618

More like we happen to enjoy reading. If you don't want to read, that's your call. Do something else then.

>>6698637
Its not an opinion. Its actually backed by scientific research that reading makes you smarter. Watching TV doesnt. Only a kid or autistic moron would try to justify what you are trying to.

>>6698649
Like watching the anime (superior) - yes we do. Thanks.

>>6698652
>He thinks we don't read, just because we prefer to watch anime instead of reading the manga/novel.

Yep, you're stupid alright. QED.

Just how could you reach that conclusion from reading this thread?

The discussion was always about originals and adaptations, and how it affects the quality.
It is the same with any media.

As said, no medium is "better" than another, they only do different things. Apples and oranges etc.
Movies adapted into books tend to be worse as well.

>>6698649
Did I say that? I enjoy the best of all worlds. You now mad?

>>6698660
Where is this we. There is only one of you bro. I doubt there is another low expectation moron that would even think about trying to argue that adaptions were better than the originals.

And I am quite sure you dont read. You are a stereotypical sheep that will feed on anything the media shovels at you. After all, they are the only people dumb enough to try shoveling arguments as thin as water, like your self.

With that said im going to bed. It was fun laughing at you. I always enjoyed laughing at people to stupid to get the joke.

>>6698684
0/10 or moron >>>/b/

>>6698652
You don't understand. The guy you are arguing with thinks that forcing you to use your brain is a flaw of written texts. Your argument isn't worth a damn for someone like him.

>>6698699
There's only one of you, samefagging, etc.

Also, 0/10 or moron.

>>6698652
That's nice of you for telling me that I'm smarter than most for reading my daily dose of nukige
