what's the difference between /a/ and /jp/?

[Anonymous ‮^_^ ‪‪‪‬ ‪‬ ‭‬ !Jones4ZrPA No.]

Mean age and post quality.
/jp/ is from a different "generation" of posters than today's /a/.

Incidentally, metathreads are not allowed.

Are you setting up a joke, or is this a real question?

[Anonymous No.]

The first is about Japanese anime and manga, the second is about everything Japanese that's not anime and manga.

/jp/ is super elitist.

/jp/ is less shit than /a/

[Anonymous No.]

/a/ isn't shitty enough to be overwhelmed by bots like Japanese Bird Cooking Spaghetti, Dawson, Japanese Train, Snowed In Japanese Train Station, Japanese House and the occasional spam bot, to name a few.

If you post cp in /a/ you get banned, but if you post it on /jp/ the system automatically detects it and makes the thumbnail into a picture of a Japanese bird making spaghetti.

[WASSHOI !WsoGLPGdyA No.]

/a/ has more of a population. Because of this, /a/ moves faster than /jp/. Because of this, the quality of posts are reduced more and more.

People fall too easily to trolls and give too much attention to the wrong people on /a/ (not that this isn't done here either, but moreso in /a/).

Because of this, /a/ is overpopulated by trolls. Current /a/ consists of new people who adapted to the posting style of other new people. Because of this, the community has changed drastically over time.

Most newcomers go to /a/ first before they think of heading to /jp/. Because of this, most people who post on /jp/ aren't from the newer generation (yet).

/jp/ isn't exclusively about anime and manga, even if you see the occasional anime thread here or there. /jp/ is a branch from past /a/.

Those are just quick points I jotted down, I don't care if they don't make clean, linear sections.

tl;dr - /jp/ = Shit
/a/ = Shit
But you'll be addicted to one or the other so who cares.

I don't know. I enjoy both peanut butter and jam. Of course, I usually dislike any other form of peanuts, but the peanut butter is fine.

Oh wow. Whatever this Vegemite thing is, it sounds horrible. Thankfully, it's stuck on that prison colony. The only people they have to bother are the Aborigines.

Contrary to what you elitists believe, a majority of /a/ hates Naruto and Bleach. It's only a group of people who posts in those threads.

By the way, I post on /a/ and /jp/ equally.

Real man use Mar(i)mite, vegemite is for faggots

[Anonymous No.]

most of /a watch mainsteam anime like one piece or bleach, most of /jp are into hardcore animes, obscure doujins, and most importantly japanese idols that are less known by westerners. Other things like figures collections or dolls are also /jp stuff, since those are usually very hard to obtain or talk about in the west.

Fuck you.

/a/ is about people who like fads and being up to date with what's popular and cool so they can feel better about the general weeaboo crowd, not realizing they are what they hate.
/jp/ is about people who dislike fads and like obscure and elitist shit so they can feel better than popular-fags, not realizing that a lot of elitists grouping together means only further hate between each other and fear of obscure shit becoming mainstream.

that's how I see it anyways
