/jp/ - Otaku Culture

They're an imageboard on 4chan.

too fast

>>9360590

This and there are too spoilers about everything

/a/ is for kiddos
VIPPERS post on /jp/!

>>9360599
You must not have read that age thread we had.

>>9360590
Why are you ban evading?

>>9360598

Too much spoilers i mean

>>9360590
Did you watch the Summer Cup?

/a/ is scum
tru/jp/ access only tru/jp/

anyways i really hate this weeaboo culture and i want to beat the shit out of everyone on /a/, how do I do that? can you guys help me? how do I hunt them down and beat them up?

After the separation, best posters came to /jp/ and kids stayed at /a/
/jp/ is for adults only.
And, yes, shitposting is not always bad.

/a/ doesn't even know the true meaning of sage.
I have left them behind on the Diaspora

>>9360623
why are you saging my thread? i thought we were fronds

Why are you nerdfags humoring some off-boarder?

/a/ is the typically ``we love japan'' forum. And they take themselves seriously as if they good or something. Also, there is that ``hivemind'' bullshit that made me really uncomfortable. I'm glad /jp/ can take it easy

they don't know how to use sage
they don't know how to use spoilers
they don't shitpost
they are angry teenagers
they take themselves too seriously
they have a hivemind (no uniqueness, everyone is the same)
they don't know how to quote

I hate them

>>9360635
>/a/ is the typically ``we love japan'' forum

Pretty sure /a/ hates Japan outside of their media, actually.

>>9360647
how do they use sage? how are you supposed to use sage

/a/ on /jp/:
>/jp/ doesn't know how to discuss VNs.
>I try and avoid /jp/ nowadays because it's basically /touhou/ now.
>/jp/ is just a Touhou infested shithole
>/jp/ hates everyone.
>Go to /jp/ and ask for a translation. They take any chance they can to translate shit.
>If you want maximum weaboos >>>/jp/
>/jp/ is complete shit and all the good VN or LN discussions are on /a/
>/jp/ is the most hipster board on 4chan.
>why not get /jp/ to translate it for us? they have more weaboos there than here.
>/jp/ is one of the stupidest boards on 4chan and their high power level amounts of parroting what they heard someone else heard on 2ch and vigorously liking anything translators throw at them. They are worse than /v/.
>/jp/ is like a retirement house for otakus
>Why is /jp/ such a douche? I'll never go to that board again.
>To /jp/, if it's been translated it's already mainstream bullshit and therefore worthless.
>4chan needs more asshole boards like /jp/. They scare away all the faggots
>You start at /a/ (or /b/ if you're a fagget). Then everything goes downhill and you end up in /jp/. Then you die. Either by normal means or suicide.
>I mainly browse /a/, but even I know /jp/ is better by default because of their elitism
>Between the diapers, bedwetting, shitting and other NEET activities, you can have a great time there.
>I wish I liked what /jp/ liked, so I could browse there. I like their level of elitism.
>/jp/ is about as shitty as any other board. They only think high of themselves because their low traffic and long time users are used to sagespamming everything in order to ensure whatever the mods or friends of the mods favor stay on the frontpage at all times. See: Touhou fiasco.

I swear it's like you guys have never actually visited the boards you complain about.

>>9360648
You're not fooling anyone, /a/ apologist. >>>/a/

>>9360649

are you from there? okay, perhaps there is still hope, I will teach, but you must never come back.

sage is to show humbleness, stating that your post is not good enough to bump the thread. You only don't use sage, when you have something very important to say and must draw attention to yourself, by having your name green and taking the thread to the beginning of the board.

sage is not offensive.
sage is the default behavior

>>9360635
>/a/ is the typically ``we love japan'' forum

/a/ seems pretty pathetic.

>>9360649
Like this.

I still laugh at how 4chan doesn't understand what sage means.

If only I knew moon so I wouldn't have to spend time on a board that imports foreign concepts and then DOES IT WRONG all the time.

Using sage as a way to "insult" someone's post or thread is just completely wrong and a retarded misuse of a good feature that is so popular in sites like 2ch and Futaba. Fuck, iichan and 4-ch do it right. It's just 4chan and 4chan's lame knockoffs that fail at using sage.

The true meaning of sage means that YOUR POST isn't worthy enough to bump the thread. It's ironic, because you think that you're insulting others while you're just, in fact, insulting yourself. Yes, sage can be used when posting a derogatory comment in a thread that you don't want to bump, but posting with just the word "sage" accomplishes nothing but contribute to spamming the board. The trend of replying with the name of a tripfag and sage is even worse, as it accomplishes nothing and only serves to increase the e-penis of whoever you're "attacking".

The sage feature was never meant to serve as an implied insult or general disagreement! Why people started using it that way is beyond me. There are plenty of reasons why one would choose not to bump a thread with his reply. For example, bumping threads with stupid one liner replies should be discouraged and those people should be coerced into using sage instead.

I want to use sage, yet I almost never do it on 4chan because people will jump on me thinking I'm insulting their post or something.

>>9360648
/jp/ says /a/ is full of Japan lovers, /a/ says the same about /jp/. You shouldn't expect any sense in these kinds of discussions.

>>9360648
No, they freak out and squeal every time they have contact with ``real japanese people''. I was there when this whole spaghetti girl shit was happening and they were making threads about talking to 2chan spewing BRO BRO BRO WE ALL SAME NOW I FEEL MORE JAPANESE THAN BEFORE. Disgusting.

>>9360660
How do I tell when someone is using sage to show hostility vs humbleness? how do I stop 'sage' from making me uneasy

>>9360663

Sage means what the majority declares it to mean on this website.

>>9360664

most of /jp/ hate japan. It is always interesting when someone come "hurr durr fuck japan uguys are shit" thinking this is a japanese love board. /a/ on the other hand used to have (may still have) people who want to travel to japan because they think it's a paradise, people who want japanese girlfriends, people who are on /r9k/ level of needing human relationships outside and all that shit.

>>9360667

There's a difference between "liking Japan" and their Japanese counterparts to /a/.

>>9360666

Stop worrying, just sage when you think to not be contributing too much to the thread and doesn't otherwise. Now, please go. Or take it easy

>>9360673
You love japan period.

>>9360666

Read the content of their post and infer their underlying emotional cues through empathy and social context.

>>9360674
>most of /jp/ hate japan
Fuck off with your hivemind shit.

>>9360676
is there a way I can track them down irl?

>>9360682
>hivemind
Fuck off yourself.

/jp/ and /a/ are both piles of shit. That's the most logical conclusion.

>>9360690
>>>/v/

>>9360667

On the first sign of Japanese talking to them, they want to stay together forever, no matter who it is or why they are talking to them. I remember they kept making threads here and we are all ``lel fuk japan man XDDD'', ``ebin thread bro :p'', ``this is not japanese board kiddo'' and they got frustrated. Good times. And sad times, since they were serious.

>>9360682

> most

Did you thought it would be exactly 50%/50% ? You are an idiot.

You can always spot the people here who post on /a/. They call you bro and throw a fit when you do something the way you prefer rather than how everyone else does.

>>9360680

You'd never get a thread like this >>>9340791
on /a/

They're very similar to /jp/. /a/ complains that /a/ is shit, as does /jp/. Both love Touhou. Both are filled with people claiming to be NEET and shutins and both are filled with many liars on the topic

/a/ has a slightly higher amount of normalfags running about. /jp/ is very irritable and less relaxed than /a/, which is strange because /jp/ claims to take it easy.

A large handful of /jp/ posters also browse and post on /a/ and for some reason many people who solely use /jp/ get offended by this. This also seems odd because /jp/ claims to take it easy but gets offended by the smallest things.

/a/ steals /jp/ in-jokes and ruins them.

Overall they are similar and on some occasions I forget which board I am on.

>>9360693
>I remember they kept making threads here and we are all ``lel fuk japan man XDDD'', ``ebin thread bro :p'', ``this is not japanese board kiddo'' and they got frustrated. Good times. And sad times, since they were serious.
The only thing sad here is that you genuinely think ebin spam :DDD is a positive development.

>>9360722

bi-browsers are scum, they know nothing

tru/jp/spies unite!

how can you claim /a/ is too fast when there's been so many replies to this thread in 15 minutes

/a/ is a lot like /v/ now.

/jp/ might be bad, but it's heaven compared to those places. Unfortunately, I'm seeing people of THAT sort starting to penetrate our fortress. When the assimilation completes, I don't know where I'll go.

I dunno, /a/ gets irritated really, really easily and a lot of the time I think it's genuine anger.

>>9360734

I hope for another Diaspora.
Then we will have a brand new board that will hopefully last a lot

>>9360722
>>9360728
>>9360734
>>9360738
>>9360745
>>9360748

At least /jp/'s front page is filled with high quality on-topic threads unlike those /a/ fucks.

>>9360722
Would you stop anonymously agreeing with yourself? It's embarrassing.

>>9360756

I wouldn't find it embarrassing to agree with myself, even though I'm not doing it *now*.
Nerd.

I just checked page 0 of /a/ and there weren't any meta-threads whining over other boards, so they're blowing this place out of the water at the moment. I'd be happy to post there if only I cared about anime.

would youre mom stop coming over 2 my place nd fallin on my cock wit her pants down

so is anime really for manchildren?

>>9360763

Uh? /a/ came here to post this thread, can't you see?

>>9360771
yes and also for faggots and gaylords

>>9360771
By definition, yes.

>>9360771
All of our hobbies are for manchildren, anon. You'll enjoy yourself more once you accept this.

Stop having them come over here.
It's gotten really bad over here because of them.
I hope that the summer f/a/ggots will leave soon.
I only call you faggots, because you don't belong here.
It's not really meant to be a real insult of any kind Bro

>>9360777
>>9360779
then why is there so much anime on /jp/ if you guys proclaim to be adults?

>>9360748
Go into an anime discussion thread and ask what the name of the show is and there's a good chance some aspie will blow his top and derail the thread in his rage. It's hilarious.

Why are you so dead, Kircheis?

There are no children hobbies

But there are children places

>>9360784
Who said adults can't be manchildren?

>>9360641
Because the summer cup tards are cooking up a /jp/ vs /a/ match and they want to know how each board feels about each other so they can better advertise their shit.

>>9360785

That's just the general 4chan lurkmoar etiquette. Summer makes /a/ extra defensive in that regard though.

Buttmangled and analangered /a/ asscunts everywhere in here.

Nobody is angry in here dude. Calm down.

EPIC THREAD /B/ROS :P

FTWWWWWW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


FUCK YEAH, AMERICA!

EHUHEUHEUEHUE ANIMU HEUHAHUEHAU

LALAOLALALALALALA

EPIC THREAD FTW XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

>>9360763
That's not the point. /a/ and /v/ have had meta threads since their inception. The only difference is the types of people who inhabit those boards.

Compare the demographics of 2007 /v/ to 2012 /v/. Same thing with /a/. It's not what's being talked about that's important, it's how it's being talked about and with whom.

The discussions on either board have devolved to primitive ad hominem with no basis or creativity.

http://www.quantcast.com/4chan.org

You can see why pretty clearly.

>>9360813

ad hominem is so cool, everybody now says ad hominem! ad hominem FTW

>>9360667
/v/ had a big hand over that whole subject. In fact, /a/ is pretty much overrun with /v/ shit these days.

I remember when threats used to come from outside the chan. People would say "get back to gaia" then fox news happened and it went to "get back to /b/". Now the shit is spilled all over the place and people want shitposters to go back to the official cancer boards. Forgive the shitty /tg/ analogy but it reminds me a lot of the battle of Minas Tirith.

>/jp/ despises normalfags for being close-minded and scornful of their interests and sexual preferences
>/jp/ vehemently attacks anyone who admits to liking anything that's not 2d/lolicon

>/jp/ claims to hate the shit out of Japan
>/jp/ is disgusted by the culture of its own country and likes the most distinctly Japanese aspects of Japanese culture

>/jp/ hates on anything that's mainstream or popular
>/jp/ likes toohoo

>/jp/ claims to hate sluts and people who are "obsessed with sex"
>/jp/ spends most of its time masturbating to doujins of toohoos being raped by packs of faceless men

>/jp/ claims to hate sexual promiscuity
>/jp/ shaves its legs, dresses up in promiscuous clothing and buys prostate massagers/onaholes

>/jp/ is a bitter misogynist
>/jp/ always talks about how it wants to be the little girl and takes drugs to turn into a woman

>/jp/ claims to hate going outside
>/jp/ claims to hate humanity
>/jp/ claims to hate socializing
>/jp/ claims to hate normality and anyone who is not NEET
>/jp/ has threads with 100+ unironic replies, in which they talk about how they want to go to Gensokyo and live out a normal life with their "waifu"

>/jp/ claims to hate CYOA and fanfiction
>/jp/ loves doujins and shipping, which are just as shitty

>/jp/ adopts NEET/hikikkomori as its board identity.
>/jp/ is mostly composed of college students or college dropouts

>/jp/ claims to hate /a/ shit.
>/jp/ watches or has watched anime

>/jp/ claims to hate /v/ shit.
>/jp/ makes Persona, Ar Tonelico and Lufia threads

>/jp/ claims to hate /v/-style posting
>/jp/ constantly uses /v/ memes like greentexting, implying, trollface, mfw, babbies, autism etc

/jp/ - Hypocrisy/General.

>>9360821

You could've saved yourself some time and just say "/jp/ is tsundere"

Neo-/jp/sies everywhere.

>>9360706
>/jp/ is very irritable and less relaxed than /a/

Nope. On /a/ much of the time, genuine ire is directed toward you if you push too hard or upset some neckbeard with a differing opinion. Much of /jp/'s irritable nature will be drowned in "irony".

>>9360813
It's not just /a/, though, it happens all over the site. Not everywhere, but most of it. Most people seem to be more interested in insulting each other than actually talking. It also happens in this board, but I don't think it happens as much. Though I might just be biased.

>>9360821
What is funny is that although /jp/ hates outside memes, they in turn create decent enough OC that it spreads everywhere.

>>9360829
Nobody gets upset over anything in /jp/. That's why I love it so much.

Taking it easy extends beyond the physical.

>>9360843
Please tell me what you're taking.

>>9360833
It doesn't feel exactly that way. Both boards seem to love getting angry, and even /a/ loves to claim it's just ironic.

Though I agree that /a/ is quicker to agitate. In /jp/ people will tend to go with the flow for a few posts before shit starts being flung, whereas in /a/ everyone goes into topics looking for a fight.

This comes from people whose primary sites are social networks and see no value to anonymous posting besides venting and insulting one another without fear of retribution.
