>What is Rozen Maiden
Rozen Maiden (Japanese: ローゼンメイデン Hepburn: Rōzen Meiden) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Peach-Pit. It was serialized in Monthly Comic Birz between the September 2002 and July 2007 issues. The individual chapters were collected and released into eight tankōbon volumes by Gentosha. The eight volumes were localized to North America by Tokyopop between March 2003 and June 2007. The story follows Jun Sakurada, a middle school student who withdrew from society after suffering persecutions from his classmates. Following his withdrawal, he is chosen to become the master to a Rozen Maiden named Shinku. Rozen Maidens are seven sentient bisque dolls who compete against each other to become a perfect doll dubbed as Alice.

Was there even an attempt at just having a Rozen Maiden thread before trying to make a general?

It's totally /jp/, I'm not arguing that, but I'm not seeing any existing demand for a general, over a normal thread:

i think you are failing to understand why this thread is here, this is not for desu "meme" posting, but the overall understanding of the series. the new manga is a thing, and for any new releases, or a hope for these releases requires fan interest, I personally am not fond of bumpculting or meme posting of rm. but there has to be discussion somewhere. so with all due respect, if you have something to contribute in regards to rozen maiden as a fan, do share.have you read rm0?

also archives were a mistake.

These threads tend to last fairly long anyway, Keeping most of the spoonfeeding in the OP, general-style, should be good. Leaves more room for discussion.

You know, once I posted that, I gave it some thought, and I realized basically what you had just said. Although I disagree with numbering, I should've said nothing at all instead of being an unhelpful ass.

So I apologize, and for that I'll check out your pastes which you put time into.

[Anonymous No.]

>>22152529
Well you can still make normal non-meme thread without it being general.

[Anonymous No.]

>>22152570
perhaps so, but this is the first thread. These sort of things are not planned but done. but the want for a place to discuss rm, thats not /a/ since that board is much too fast and the interest is very little, this was the only place left, the format could be worked on, but as said before this is the first thread changes could be made in the future. for now its making the footprint here and the fact that rozen maiden threads are a thing that should exist and stay existing, at least fanbase wise.

This has never happened in any general in the history of ever, but this one will surely be different!

>>22154016
not with that attitude.

am I the only one that is irked by the fact that tefuko really has no color pallet, other then her left eye for obvious reasons, way to introduce a new doll to the series and provide no official art.

At least we have a very general idea of what she looks like

Why the fuck did you make a general for this.
They already get enough traffic in the single threads that pop up over the months so why the everliving fuck are you creating a general to indulge in your shit when it will not only degrade the quality but also waste time and space because nobody fucking posts aside from you to save your own fucking thread.
We don’t need this this thread, Rozen Maiden does not need a general you utter fool.

>Why the fuck did you make a general for this.
this is the first thread, there is no guarantee on this, as explained before.
>degrade the quality
quality like bumpculting regurgitating of sameshit images and meme spouting, single word posts, you call that quality retard?
>also waste time and space
please tell me more sweet lies on how quality the catalog is.
>nobody fucking posts aside from you to save your own fucking thread.
you say these things like i am the creator of the previous threads. you seem very sure of yourself.
>Rozen Maiden does not need a general you utter fool.
will partially agree, however name the last thread there was ever any real rozen maiden discussion, i can tell you. there has never been.

you are a fool, and this sort of attitude does no good for anything.

Not him but creating a general doesn't guarantee discussion either since:
-Not many people come to /jp/ for discussion other than 2hu. Other generals are flourishing because they brought here an already-established community from other boards (like /vg/ and /mu/).
-While some /jp/sies may be interested in RM, no one likes to post in a general. It is despised by anyone who have been here since a long time and aren't /vg/ posters, or the core posters of this board.

I'd say you might even have better chance to get discussion with meme thread since it'll attract them better, but I appreciate your attempt anyway. It might go well like R07 thread if you do what they do.

If this manages to take off, then we're just having a bit of a slow start. I'm just glad to have a doll thread again so I can talk doll and share my art. Not OP, just a nomad drawn to the thread.

>>22156252
>meme spouting
I hope I don't derail with this meme redraw. I don't have many other works in progress to share.

>>22156338
As far as I'm aware, most RM threads here were always meme threads. The general style is one not tried yet so I'm curious how this will go.

thats is and has been understood, and i do agree on perhaps numbering is not the right idea, and even making this attempt is biting the bullet so to speak, it was worth a shot, things do not fly most will fly along with it. as >>22156363 said.
>While some /jp/sies may be interested in RM, no one likes to post in a general.
also understood, not just here but many other places as well, just not many places a thread can live with focused discussion, content creation and news. and of course some humor who doesn't like nice things?
>I'd say you might even have better chance to get discussion with meme thread since it'll attract them better
in all honesty its to be expected in these threads, nothing wrong with it. as of lately some been wanting discussion, the earlier threads are nice and i do appreciate the rare occasions they pop up, its just a shame any discussion is behind closed doors, not reaching or making an attempt in reaching out to a proper audience, rozen maiden zero was short lived and gained almost zero notoriety, another shame.

however i would not want things to go into metas, it was expected to receive some backlash.

We could have had a cozy autumn Rozen Maiden thread, but, alas, OP was a faggot.
