/jp/ - Otaku Culture

>tfw you are 40 yrs old
Fuck

she's probably doing pretty bad since she doesn't exist and all

>>46833162
33 here.
Why am I still here?

>>46833190
becuase you didnt have the balls to pull the trigger

>>46833287
What're you talking about? I'm all Trigger!

>People that were babies when 4chan started are not fully grown adults who have children of their own

>>46833190
What's the problem bud? Here's hoping for 33 more years of taking it easy.

>>46833389
I really should take it easy.

>>46833364
If anything we should be thankful it's lasted this long. The world changes and leaves people behind, but we're here forever.

>>46833425
I cant leave because all my friends are here

>>46833516
Japanese Corndog.

>>46833416
Yeah same, I don't listen to my own advice. 30+ year olding is tough shit.

>>46833190
take it easy anon

>>46833153
Probably getting bullied, I hope.

>>46833364
Why so green?

>>46833190
33 also.
You can never leave.

>>46833309
XD

>>46833153
I am 20 years old and I already went through 2 existential crisis 2 middle age crisis.

>>46834245
>>46833190
>33
Same, I came to 4chan while still a kid, now a full grown middle aged adult. We wasted our lives but at least we're not as finished as the anons that discovered 4chan when they were already in their 30s, these niggas are now older than my dad oof what a disaster.

>>46833153
Well assuming her and her family are still in America, Reimu is going to be entering high school in a couple months. That's something interesting to think about.

>>46833153
>New Jersey
Why is Reimu in that shithole?

>>46834358
Someone needs to fight aliens when Coop isn't around with MEGAS.

/jp/ anons who are 30+ years old should meet up and dress up as their favorite toohoo and have gay sex with each other

>>46834358
reimu was born in mombasa kenya.
new jersey is where her father was born.

>>46834419
Reimu born to a foreign military base soldier?

>>46834419
I am such an illiterate fuck, I immediately saw New Jersey and chimped out

>>46834419
>>46834424
>>46834425
Look at the scan, she was born in NJ State Hospital.
Her father is from Honolulu and her mother is blacked out but says USA as well. The father might be "Japanese-passing" enough to get away with the name.

>>46834428
Nevermind I'm a retard.
:o

>>46834428
>>46834358
>>46833153
>>46834312
Too bad it's fake, we had a thread about this a few years ago and someone found the original birth certificate that jabroni used to fool everyone. What a cuck, at least Baby Sephiroth is real.

>>46834466
Still, I wonder if anyone actually did name their daughter Reimu..

I still can't believe there was people that believed it was real, there is 0% chance of anyone that lurks here to have a daughter that's not from rape.

>>46834525
He was one of those normalfags that browses jaypee

Just like the fuckers on the fumo thread

>>46834509
Odds are low, but never zero.

>>46834586
>fumo collectors are normalfags
When did this happen?

fuck it, lets go for it again

Would you name a daughter after a 2hu? Normal names like Marisa or Alice need not apply

>>46834697
Reisen will be my daughter's name.

>>46834697
Why yes I would name my daughter Wrigglenightbug or Clownpiece

>>46833364
>>46834245
>be born in 2003
>anons ITT could have been here for nearly two decades

I'm already getting sick of the lot of you, and I've been here for the (worst) part of 8 years. How do you keep coming back? Are the same touhou shitposts from 2008 still funny? the occasional IRC/vidya/good discussion thread I've found whenever new content gets announced is fun but other than that I have zero desire to interact with 4chan. It's a vitriolic and anti-social echo chamber. On /lgbt/ and /a/ it's even worse, the trolling and /pol/ invasions are literally everywhere. /jp/ is alright since it's slower but 95% of the time it's just the same image dumps filled with the same horny anons wanting Yuuka to sit on them or whatever.

>>46834697
You could probably get away with naming your daughter Hecatia

>>46834812
serious question, why are you here
you don't want to be here and we don't want you here either, so if you would just leave that'd be best for everyone

>>46834812
As dire as the current state are (and hooooly shit are they dire), there's unironically no better place online than 4chan to discuss shit. Reddit mods powertrip the fuck out, worse than old forum mods... which no longer exist, social media and reddit killed old phpBB discussion boards and the lack of people giving a shit also killed most BBSs.

>>46834812
Bitch I've been here since you were a sperm cell, this is our home and the place where we rest and take it easy from society and normalfags. It doesn't matter whether things are funny or not, it's whether things are comfortable and people are content. Besides where the hell would you rather be? Everywhere else sucks.

>>46834697
Probably not, cause as soon as she realizes I named her after a girl from a doujin series she'd no doubt think less of me.

>>46834697
She'll probably become a boring whore with no appreciation for touhou anyway, so why bother?

On that note maybe I should name her Sanae

>>46834893
You see this is why you will never have a daughter

>>46835040
I thought I made it perfectly clear that I don't want one. I'm not raising a woman for 16 years with all my love and care just for her to have sex with random idiots or get into a relationship with a dunce.

>>46834697
Clownpiece because fuck you

>>46834893
Sanae the turboslut

>>46835040
Imagine being so cucked you have a daughter.

>>46834697
>Normal names like (...) Alice
Al*ce is a fat girl's name

>>46833153
Not very good in internet popularity polls, I'm afraid

>>46841871
Ironically, one of my friends is named Alice and she's the skinniest woman I've ever met.

>>46842022
anon, you have to introduce me to alice

>>46842067
Between her physique and height she'd honestly make a great Remilia cosplayer.

>>46842224
I've never worked in my life and have no long-term life prospects. Hook me up anon, surely this can work out.

>>46834509
I feel like if you are a Touhou fan and want to name your daughter after a Touhou, you've got much better options that won't get her bullied in school.

>>46834697
My wife is pregnant and she liked the name Alice when I suggested it to her.

>>46834259
You went through a middle age crisis before you were middle aged?
Impressive.

>>46842600
Hearing about /jp/ anons having wives is always a strange thought. Where did you even meet? Do they have similar interests as you?

>>46834697
I would name her Maribel because I find the name to be cool for some reason

Also calling her Merry as a nickname sounds cute

>>46834697
I'd probably choose Marisa or maybe Yuuka as a name for a daughter

>>46833153
Want this a hoax? I remember some one talking about how it was photoshopped.

>>46834262
Wow your dad is still alive? I'm 33 as well and I miss my dad so much. I hope you still talk to him anon

>>46833153
Hopefully she's not posting here with the other 14 year old kids.

>>46833153
Nope

>>46850711
Oh my god, Reimu is actually David!

>>46834697
my gf absolutely refuses (she knows about Touhou), but if I had my way, I'd name a kid Reimu

>>46833162
damn
not surprising, (30s here) but still, damn

>>46850711
Thank you OSINT man

>>46834697
Momiji.
It's funny to say.

>>46834893
>>46851080
Momiji and Sanae are normal names, so they don't count either.

>>46849677
We met through a friend.
I keep my power level hidden; absolutely no one knows I am an Otaku.

>>46842495
who the fuck bullies people for names? i never heard of that happening irl when i went to school. sounds like something that only happens in cartoons. if you're at least already asian or have an asian wife then i don't think there would be any harm in giving your daughter an asian name like Reimu

>>46853734
Maybe not in the US since it's multicultural enough. Were I'm from, at least in elementary school, the kids could be pretty savage. They've got no filter and will latch on to anything unusual.
Things might be different nowadays, though. I've heard even kindergartners watch youtube content in English these days. Culture crosses borders more easily.

>>46834697
Yuugi sounds like a fine name

>>46850004
I've known like three Marisas IRL, all of them have been fat negresses

>>46853536
>I keep my power level hidden
coward

>>46853734
>who the fuck bullies people for names?
People who meet someone who has a stupid last name like Gaye or Cumming or Crapper or Dong

>>46833364
bro did you want to have children? I want to do my hobbies not wipe noses and have something attached to me after the age of 18. That's a forever thing not just childhood.
>>46850711
Both could be doctored pretty easily.

>>46834697
I'm naming my child, Luna

>>46833364
I was born in '03 and I'm getting married in a month.

>>46854899
Good luck, Anon!

>>46834697
I always thought Remilia sounded real enough. It's pretty.
>>46854899
I hope you get a stomach ache.

>>46855001
Thanks, anon.
>>46855025
Quiet, bat lover

>>46854899
>you were born the year 4chan got created and will mary next month at age 21
Why, though?
Should I kill myself?

>>46853734
>who the fuck bullies people for names?
You can get bullied for literally anything as long as the bullies think they can get away with it.

>>46853734
>who the fuck bullies people for names?
Me, I was.

>>46854899
was also born in 2003, congrats

>>46860734
your name was dick wasn't it
Lol
Lmao

>>46860751
No, Im not american.

>>46834466
Why do you use a slang word, that had not only been long co-opted by politics, but had largely fallen out of use due to the failed-normalfags that used it finally realizing it had lost steam, and above all in a context that it barely makes sense for?

>>46860765
Was that a jab that belongs on /int/ or /pol/ etc., or was it genuine ignorance? It is known in the UK also.

1830, Mary Russell Mitford, Our Village: Fourth Series: Cottage Names::

You may know what one man thinks of another by his manner of calling him. Thomas and James and Richard and William are stupid young gentlemen; Tom and Jem and Dick and Will are fine spirited fellows.

>>46860585
No, just because one Anon is winning doesn't mean you're losing, you just have to get out there and give it your all.

>>46833153
time keeps on moving.......sniff

>>46833153
>>46850711
I thought it was a fake Obama certificate.

>>46870325
>the folds in all of these are exactly the same.
Good lord.

>>46833190
You’ll always have time to stop being a retard. I believe in you

Fake news. No way one of us has ever reproduced

>>46870337
>Obama is secretly Reimu

>>46870448
Wrong, we reproduce by indoctrinating the kids of normaltards into NEETdom and burdenmaxing.

>>46834245
>>46833190
Meet up

>>46870684
My coworkers keep begging to know what kind of music I listen to. If only they knew the dark fate I’m trying to spare them

Isnt Akyuu younger than Reimu?

>>46853536
So, people don't love the real you.

>>46853536
>Having to hide who you are to appease normalfags
pathetic.

>>46884398
>>46885213
I did what I had to do to reach this point

>>46834697
Mystia sounds nice. Remilia and Maribel, too, as other anons have said. There's also Parsee and Letty, which don't sound too weird.
And then, you can go the PC-98 way and name your daughter Sara or Elly, and call it a day. And of course, it gets easier if you and/or your partner are Asian.

>>46842600
cute!

>>46853536
nigga you gay, my wife plays Mystia's Izakaya, and we read Silent Sinner in Blue and Wild and Horned Hermit together.

>>46854899
Godspeed little brother!

>>46833190
Because we can all share our love for the 2hus here. Do you just use /jp/, or other boards, too? Because oddly enough, 4chan can be informative about some topics. If you know how to sift through the atrocious shilling, bot activity and shitposting, that is.

>>46886456
>Do you just use /jp/, or other boards, too?
I'm an oldfag who joined here back in February 2004 I still use /a/ and /m/ because there's modern anime I still greatly enjoy as well as the ocassional "pre-2000 anime" nostalgia thread, while /m/ is honestly the best place to discuss Kamen Rider.

I don't go to /co/ anymore, that place is painfully mindbroken, it's all ragebait. /v/ has been dead to me since 2008. /vr/ was great but it's turning on /v/ 2.0 real fast, but /vg/ might be a circlejerk but some generals can be fun.

>>46835286
Imagine hating your child so much you doom them to extreme bullying from their peers until they change their name. It would also mean you hate yourself, as your child will hate and disown you for that, but that's a common theme with 4channers anyway.

You're not a real /jp/sie if you have a 3DPD wife

W-what? I thought reimbursed to age in realtime?

>>46894266
Damn you autocorrect, now anon knows I posted on mobile.

>>46894298
You know, had you not added this, everyone would've just thought you're retarded like the others. Now you've dun exposed yourself.

>>46886157
A friend of mine has a father like you, your shame will catch up to you eventually.
Guy is in his late 50s, hid his hobbies from his wife and family all his life, then eventually it just led to a miserable divorce, his son just grew up to be a NEET otaku.

>>46849677
It defitnitely odd with how many anons in this thread talked about wife or children in general when the average stereotypical otaku are people who hate confronting to society norms. I saw the same things happening with someone who is deeply invested in anime or visual novel, only to find out that he's actually married and have like 1-2 kids while also wanting to share his hobby with them. I don't like this normalization of hobbyist culture where everyone stop being outcast weird and become normalfags.
What happened to all these die hard otaku who lives in their room, watch anime and read visual novels?

>>46894998
Society began pushing hard against Comic Book Guy as "someone you shouldn't be" and even he got sanitized and retonned into becoming "a better type of nerd" with a qt japanese wife.

>>46894998
>.

The thing is that these people were never true NEETs or otakus, they were just normalfags down on their luck.

>>46894998
It's because they aren't otaku at all, they're normalfaggots that come here to boeast about living a normalfag life that does not conform to otalu standards or customs.

If it means buying hundreds of fumos and anime figures to boast their wealth and social status, these normalfags would do it. Just look at the fumo thread. It's the best example of this.

>>46894998
I grew up, anon

>>46895072
hey now, I love my bootleg fumo daughteru you fuck.

>>46894998
Pissed me off. They can go be normal somewhere else. If you've got a family now make like a normie and drop your hobbies. Go be a good father or husband.

>>46834697
chen

>>46894998
Honestly, i always would have liked to get irl friends and a girlfriend who are also interested in touhou and other rather obscure animes... or just otaku stuff in general, but its insanely hard for me to find such people... (most anime cons only have FOTM fans) i guess i could go to a videogame con and see if i meet someone...
But even then, is it better to just remain alone? Is it not worth it to get a gf or a wife? I heard some anons regret doing that and miss being alone on their rooms.

>>46894998
I'm somewhat a Touhou Otaku, but I have a good social life and can get feminine affection, now I feel like I'm just a normalfag...

Nooooo

>>46894998
natural selection, anon
normies breed and otakus don't, therefore normies will proliferate and otakus won't
>>46895066
>these people were never true NEETs
anon do you know what a neet is?
