>>658 I wouldn't say it's only 4chan. It has been a big hit elsewhere too, it's getting lots of fanart on Pixiv for example. The manga is relatively successful; that's how I got into it. The threads for the manga were already relatively popular on 4chan, although I don't go a lot in /a/ so I can't say for sure. I honestly expected it to be successful, it's good. The pacing is nice, the anime improves the fights and follows to the letter what was already a good manga.

>>718 And that's not even thanks to users purposeley boosting the number through multiple accounts like we've had in the past with (IIRC) AOT season 3. People just legitmatley love this and the only real complaints I've seen from people disliking it are either them not understanding the character and the message of the series and as a result finding her to be bland, while some are just hating on it because it's popular. I have a bad habbit of hyperfixating on 2000's anime and ignoring the new stuff but even I can say it's one of the best thats come out in years and will surely be looked back on as a classic if the rest of the series stays as consistently good as it has been so far.

>>27 i read the light novel for Welcome to the NHK on a whim and really enjoyed it. i always avoided it for the longest, because the only thing i ever heard about it was that it was..."a deconstruction/critique of otaku culture with an unlikable protagonist", and i've always hated discussion like that. it will never not bother me how japanese media consistently attracts people who don't like it here in the states. so i always try to avoid anime like that. but NHK i ended up really resonating with. i think some people do the story a disservice when they only discuss the one aspect of the story. i really resonated with the characters, Yamazaki especially. that said, i feel like the ending was a bit contrived. it could just be me projecting my own bitterness onto the story, but i feel like everyone suddenly getting a happy ending was kind of unrealistic. i'm downloading the anime right now, i've only ever seen people recommend the anime and not the book, i know there are a couple of differences between the two. the download is taking forever

I can't say wihch one I liked the most and which one I hated the most because they're all different in their own. so I liled them all

what are your favorite anime intros? I really like the High School DxD season 1 intro and the Ouran High School Host Club intro. Maybe it's because they both have cool lead guitar intros idk.

>>604 I enjoyed reading Yotsuba&, it helped me learn more Japanese and it's fun to read. More fun than Azumanga to me.

But it's easier to find something cute when it's in an anime like Azumanga (since it's animated with voices instead of just the art and writing), so I usually find Chiyo-chan to be cuter. I love her voice!

>>95 1 Liter of Tears, also based on the true story of Aya Kitō dying young from a degenerative illness. She will forever be the age that I am now.. JIN-仁- (2009), a historical fiction jidaigeki about a neurosurgeon who is suddenly timeslipped into the end of the Edo period, a time of tumult and revolt known as Bakumatsu; he doesn't know when he'll return, so all he can do is soldier on with the medical knowledge that he remembers. I personally related to it so much because I love sentimental dramas. The character development, the portrayal of 19th century people as rightfully justified in their superstitions and way of life, doing the best they can, the rivalry between the Kanpō (traditional Chinese) and western (Dutch / Rangaku) medical schools. I learned so many nice JP phrases like how "everything is water bubbles" 「全てが水の泡」is a metaphor for "everything will be in vain". Some episodes are a bit heavy on the historical timeline side of things like secret meetings between famous figures of different shogunates. I plan to read the manga some time. I want to turn into snow. If I turn into snow, I can fall onto Sensei's shoulder anytime, anywhere... The theme song is a JP karaoke classic too. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aitakute_Ima Code Blue, starring Gakky and Erika Toda flying around in Doctor-Helis!! (aah, both of them are married now...) Despite it being a medical drama too, I felt that it was more fast-paced and tense than heart-wrenching, because well if you have to be airlifted you already have one foot in the grave anyways I really liked how the characters matured, at the beginning I was cringing at some scenes where the characters' ego took over because they were stressed beyond their breaking point. Liar Game, starring Erika again!
