As Otaku culture and anime/manga are closely related, I wonder, do /jp/ watch anime or read manga?

No definitely not. Doujinshi doesn't count as manga btw.

>watch anime

Very rarely, and even then, only usually adaptations of VNs/LNs I've read. I usually hate them, as adaptations never fulfill me.

Except Fate/Zero. I greatly enjoyed that.


Don't read manga, though. Last one I read was the Tsukihime manga. It was quite good, but then, I only read it because I had previously heard it was quite good.

I watched some of Bakemonogatari on Monday and it was cool. It's like Alice in Wonderland but less exploratory.

It's also kind of neat how the usual narrative conventions for 'magic' are reversed. Traditionally, in books and movies and everything else (especially since LotR) magic and the non-ordinary have been used to take the story places it wouldn't normally be able to go. In Bakemonogatari, 'magic' shit is treated as the norm and 'normal' conventions are used as the deus ex machina mechanic. A character used to be a vampire? A weird crab-god took away someone's weight and repressed memories? A weird, sort of selective narrative haziness? Nothing out of the ordinary. Then something normal makes its way into the story and veers it somewhere else in a way similar to how magic is used in conventional stories.

Yes, mostly manga.
