Spring 2025 Anime Season 名無し 04/16/2025 (Wed) 19:37:15 No. 1341 [Reply]

i missed making the last few threads for reasons. 4/a/ is dead and it seems like discussion is scattered. other altchans shittalk currently airing things too much for me to want to talk about them there, so i'm posting a thread here. what're you all watching? post about it here.

I usually never watch more than 3 airing shows at once and there's always some 4 cour baby anime thrown in the mix so it doesn't really count. This is new

>>1341 i haven't really been watching much of anything honestly. kinda thinking of watching the dark elf anime, but are any of these actually good? which do you recommend the most out of them?

I love everything about Remilia so much. Except maybe her purple hair, I think Flandre's blonde would look better on her.

名無し 05/08/2025 (Thu) 15:49:04 No. 1435

>>1433 I think I've seen a theory before where Remilia is naturally blonde but her hair got dyed somehow. I thought there was a lot more art like that but for some reason this is the only one I can find.

Last night I dreamt I got to play with Ren-chon all day I felt satisfied like I had never before Even though I woke up at like 8 I lay in bed until half 11 thinking about how happy I felt and how miserable the upcoming day was going to be even though it was all warm and sunny does anyone else here like Ren-chon?

>>1423 i think the only people who say shit like this are those who didn't get attention from women growing up. you can have normal friendships and relationships with women and not worship them.

it's a strange reflection of deal with it.

名無し 05/05/2025 (Mon) 16:45:58 No. 1425

>>1424 you can't. you'll always come and ruin everything because women live rent free in your head. having a woman excludes a possibility of being dedicated to anything else, so you're naturally incapable of sustaining any meaningful hobby. that's why there needs to be a clear separation between loners who care about what they do and sex havers who care about farming validation. i don't mean to disparage you or whatever, there wouldn't be any problems at all except that you ruined everything we ever valued

i humbly ask for someone to help me (as a newcomer too) to get into otaku culture. i want to step it up as i'm also trying to learn japanese now. what qualifies (or qualified) someone as an otaku? i've mostly been an outsider in the technology and vidya sense and that's what i usually stick to in the imageboards i've been, but i've never really got into watching a ton of anime or manga besides some old stuff like SEL and monster. (nice place btw)

You're actually interested in animanga, vidya games, vns, ect. You're not into them because you're an otaku, you're an otaku because you're into them. >>1408 I personally don't think you could call yourself an otaku if you've only watched one anime...
