/a/ - Anime and Manga

ITT: post the best cosplay pics you have.
Bronycon cosplay is acceptable if it isn't cringe.

Post in this thread every time you visit /a/.

It was only a matter of time...

Now she'll pay for her crimes

I just remembered that nichijou will never get a second season because the animators were all fucking murdered.
The world we live in is so goddamn unfair.

As this board can be rather slow and the standard 'post here when you come' format hasn't helped recently, I figured I'd start a content/recommendation thread.
So, here are the rules:
Whenever you finish reading a manga or watching an anime movie, season, or short series, post here and give it a short review. (Post spoilers for major or minor plot events in spoilers, obviously.) If you feel someone else's review is shit, tell them why so they can improve. I'll start.
Name: Made In Abyss
The Good: the worldbuilding is phenomenal, and the environments are gorgeous. The titular abyss or Netherworld that the story takes place in has varied and versatile landscapes, and each and every one of them is memorable. The creature design is serviceable, a few are uninspired but for the most part they feel at place in a hellscape.
The Bad: there are a few plot inconsistencies and conveniences. Near the end, one of the characters who is portrayed as an experienced researcher seemingly wastes all but two of his test subjects, and then allows the remaining two to escape easily. Reg's arm length seems to fluctuate depending on what the writers need. One minute he's expressing difficulty rescuing the other main character because he lacks the length, the next he's lowering himself down what are presumably hundreds of meters to descend in the abyss safely. The two hollows don't have that well of a defined dynamic, so when you see one of them turned into cat yogurt you don't feel the same emotional investment. The one sentient hollow also sort of stole the show for me, I found her motivations were far more interesting than 'I gotta find my mom.' or 'I am a robot, I will protect you from danger because plot.'
The Ugly: I didn't really like the humor. 99% of it is just some character making a remark about dicks, pussies, balls or butts. Maybe I'd find it a bit less unbearable if they weren't all around 12 (or appear to be around 12). It's just disgusting, felt like the writers were child groomers.

Sup frens. Do u guise have any manga recommendations? Let's exchange some between us? I give u sum of mine and u give me sum of urs, ok?

Here:
>Bloodline: The Illusory Noble Demon
https://mangadex.org/title/fac533c1-baeb-4dc5-af60-8792abe463a3/bloodline
Pretty fun vampire story. With elements of inheriting and becoming a vampire and friends being split up on opposite sides of a conflict.
>The Old Man That Was Reincarnated as a Young Girl in the Demon World Wants to Become the Demon Lord for the Sake of Peace
https://mangadex.org/title/56c2b72c-3ca0-4293-be5d-bda449f92c4d/makai-youjo-ni-tensei-shita-oji-san-wa-heiwa-no-tame-ni-maou-ni-naritai
Fun isekai.
Like how the mc connects with his main support character (the hero).
I also, like how it's an iseaki with a defined goal for the story and not an op mc at all, kinda under-powered genre-wise, really.
I enjoy the art.
I like how it doesn't make light of the struggles of being and older man and stuff.
I cringe when I read that title tho.
>Double Helix Blossom
https://mangadex.org/title/f685d63c-42fe-4ca9-8d80-33e638c1684d/double-helix-blossom
Lovable protagonist. Set in the near-future so semi-scifi with physics, and somewhat interesting dynamic of bounty hunters being called in to reinforce the police.
Haven't read the new ch. yet.

Maybe I'll add to this list later:

It's the 15th anniversary of this doujin.

Post in this thread every time you visit /a/

Is there any other anime Visual novels like Wonderful Everyday Down the Rabbit-Hole
that are food for thought that will give you An existential crisis ? I want to think but fuck my life situation is a repetition it's insanity.

Although it is often mentioned alongside "cute girls doing cute things" animes. The fact is that Gunslinger Girl doesn't fall in that category. But it could have.

You see, the mangaka wrote what was essentially a spy-esque novel. It's an action thriller where the focus is on the war between the government and the rebels.
Whomever was in charge of the anime at Madhouse however, decided to shift the focus entirely. The focus is on the girls now, their motivations, relationships and their messed up lives. The show is gray to the bone, from the colours to the music used. Even the girls art-style fits the tone of the series. (Do watch that OP by the way.)

The characters are not only three-dimensional, they are actually pretty complex. Whereas in the manga, some characters literally have no agency or original thoughts. This is literally a plot-point, not even an opinion.

The show is pretty damn deep. It's a very elaborated allegory. And, what is perhaps what I liked the most from it. It's that it's not overt, not hand-holdy so to speak. And that's what ultimately sticks to the "readers" IMO.

Here's a comprehensive analysis (with spoilers) that I've found interesting.
http://neichusanime.blogspot.com/p/gunslinger-girl.html

So, the show had a second season. The mangaka finally got an anime that was closer to the source material. They even throw subtle jabs at the previous season.
Overall, characters were dumbed down. The classic Italian music was replaced with generic, modern action tracks. The girls designs and the overall tone plays more into the "cute girls with guns" stuff. And of course, the focus is on the war between the rebels and the government.

As long as you ignore the 5-8fps fight scenes. It's not bad. But I feel like those who saw a different angle. And went on to explore it in season one, truly surpassed the original vision of the author.

This anime was recommended only once here. Do watch it, it's definitely worth it.

Aggretsuko is my favorite anime.

What's your favorite anime /a/?
Mines JoJo

Maybe it's kind of normie-tier at this point, but is anyone else into this show? I just got around to watching it a few weeks ago and I thought it was pretty wholesome. Through a chain of improbable and hilarious circumstances, two adults whose lives revolve around their work get a chance to experience family life, and a little orphan girl gets to experience what it's like to have more or less normal parents. It's not the sort of theme you get to see much of these days. Plus, the premise is fairly unique, the animation is beautiful, and it's a genuinely enjoyable show to watch. I quite like it and am looking forward to the new season.

Curious what /a/ thinks.

/vp/ is losing their collective minds over this. After over twenty years the protagonist of the Pokemon anime, Ash Ketchum, finally won the equivalent of the world championship. As he's actually become "the very best" Ash will be dropped from the series and replaced with a new protagonist, allegedly his daughter.

If you want more added to the list, I'm open for suggestions

did anyone else want to FUCK misty as a kid?

Is anyone here into this series/familiar with the card game?
I played it solo as a kid, never had a face-to-face duel in my life. I quit around the 5Ds era so my old deck's completely outdated.

I was thinking about Code Geass because it's a story about a rebellion and I'm writing one of those. But Code Geass did a lot wrong and I want to avoid making those mistakes in my work.

I don't know how much of it you're familiar with but basically Lelouch Vi Britannia is an exiled Britannian (british-controlled america, brits moved there when they lost britain to france, the EU are tards and Britannia has conquered over a third of the world) prince who faked his death and started pretending to be a "normal" teen genius named Lelouch Lamperouge at a boarding school for the rich in Japan, now renamed Area 11 because Britannia conquered Japan for the Sakuradite, a mineral that makes a lot of energy and is perfect for powering giant robots. Suzaku's a student there and a soldier for the Britannian army. Lelouch finds a can of gas that turns out to be full of ass, it contains the prisoner C2's who's an immortal hot babe with green hair and the power to give people Geass, a personality-based psychic superpower that manifests as an ironic wish fulfilled. Lelouch's dad hated lies and viewed strength as the only true and right thing that matters, so he gains the power to make strength irrelevant and force people to believe lies by fucking with their memories. Lelouch who loves freedom gets the power to mind-control people once per person, and he unites Japanese rebel groups under himself as the mysterious masked "Zero".

Suzaku serves the empire that's oppressing his people because he's a fucking moron.

That's it, that's what my post was building towards.

I'm sorry, I have to say it.

This might take a while.

Does that mean I can post hentai here?

So...there's this animu that's seems to be trending right now where there's literal human farms to feed childr*n to literal demons.
There's no much talk about it on 4chins, not working for me right now, but i managed to get something from the google preview, apparently a lot of its main Discord servers are allowing full chatter about the JQ AND the propostreous piss-a-g@te conspiracy theory, i'll advice to avoid using Discord at all tho.

/v/ is currently getting bombarded with this stuff. I have no idea if this is just a meme or a serious new character they are going to implement into a new Nintendo game. But it is what it is, and it gets a lot of new Art.

These are just some samples. This thing is going viral for the last ~3 days and Randy wont stop posting about it. Some people draw her with red hair, also the accessories and the name are pending. Enjoy.

What does /mlpol/ thinks about KnY?
I think the music's pretty good, the animation is real noice and the fight scenes are some of the best i've seen.

Did the google site: thing, and it seems like this is the first KnY OP, probably even the first post

How right wing is this board? Giving the benefit of the doubt and presuming it's quietly natsoc. A lot of people see The Greatest Story Never Told and ride the emotional high thinking they have a full understanding of the 2nd European civil war. You should understand that there was a more important spiritual theory that was internal to national socialism, explained in the book The Myth of the 20th Century. This is the real importance of national socialism. Whereas modern heresy views religion as an individual's journey, the truth is cooperation is a central necessity for actualizing spiritual values. These values are expressable only by the people with the biology to perceive and express it correctly, leading to the concept of the race soul.

The Naruto thread, for Naruto discussion. You can talk about what you like/dislike about the show, your favourite character, your least favourite retcon, and anything else you want.

To get this started I think I'll talk about my least favourite retcon in the series.
When the story first started, Naruto Uzumaki was a nobody.
And an orphan who lives alone in a shitty apartment.
Dead-last in his ninja school, considered a failure by damn near everyone who knew him, hated for a reason he didn't know, he resorted to pranking people and vandalizing the Ninja Mount Rushmore monument in Konoha (The Hidden Leaf Village) for attention. Only one teacher liked him.
He wants to be Hokage (Ninja President) but at first nobody thinks he'll make it.
To make matters worse, this is a setting where things just aren't fair. Some people are born with more talent than others. There are people out there younger than Naruto with more talent than his Ninja senseis. Some people are legitimately threatened by caltrops and ninja knives, and some people are demigods who explode mountains by looking at them and effortlessly survive taking island-destroying explosions to the face.
Some people are born with Kekkei Genkais (Bloodline Limits), a genetic mutation that improves their body or lets them use a certain element nobody else can use. In a world where it takes a long time to learn one Fire/Water/Earth/Wind/Lightning spell and having two elements is considered a sign that you're epic, these people get an extra element on top like Magnetism or Lava. Or lets them use a combo-element like Ice which is a combination of wind and water magic, granting them incredible talent in both elements and the ability to perform ninja hand-seals one-handed. Or a unique evolutionary advantage like white eyes with X-ray vision that see in a 360-degree sphere for miles and let you see the body's chakra points, or bullshit purple god-eyes, or red and black eyes that see faster and gradually unlock increasingly bullshit powers like improve your reflexes, spit magical black fire so hot it burns regular fire and can only be extinguished by sealing magic, trap people in a torture illusion that lasts ages for the victim but a second in reality, make a big fucking gundam out of magic, shit on causality to "turn your wounds into illusions" for six seconds at the cost of your sight in that eye, create a mental time loop for someone until they give up, and get some bullshit power unique to the individual like the ability to mind-control anyone or displace matter or get really really good control of the black fire.
Some people are born with power and immense talent, and some people are nobodies like Naruto.
He did have The Nine-Tailed Fox sealed inside him as a baby, which is an evil demon who hates humanity and wants to be free. But he's not on Naruto's side, and whenever Naruto gets pissed the fox tries to escape.
Naruto was considered a loser by everyone who knew him, and he was a loudmouthed knuckleheaded brat. And yet, he had potential. Once someone told him to do it, he was able to sneak into the Hokage's (Ninja President's) tower, steal the Forbidden Scroll, and learn one technique from it that would quickly become his signature move: The Shadow Clone Jutsu. He saved the life of the teacher that liked him.
He was assigned to a team that hated him at first, getting stuck with the lazy genius Kakashi Hatake, the "grumpy on the outside, kind on the inside" (at first) Sasuke Uchiha, and the shit Sakura Haruno.
The author Kishimoto wanted Sakura to be a normal girl to contrast the stronger and more interesting characters in her team. This was a really stupid move, as Sakura's the least interesting/funny/likable female character in a show where females are already usually uninteresting/unfunny/unlikable, making the rare good females stand out.
Naruto had the odds stacked against him for all of the show, when it was good. He was a nobody who worked hard, and proved to the world he can improve even if they've written him off as a "dead-last loser for life". He beats some fatalist guy who says "People cannot change their destiny" and it's epic. He defeats many foes destined to be stronger than him by working his ass off.
And then, near the end of the tale, the author decides to retcon Naruto's parentage.
Suddenly, Naruto was always some fucking Crusader Kings god-baby with two of the greatest parents possible. His dad turned out to be The Yellow Flash Minato Namikaze, The Fourth Hokage. And his mom was Kushina Uzumaki, a previous Jinchuriki for the Nine-Tails. Their family tree's full of previous Hokage and super-powerful/important people, and Naruto is not only directly related to The Sage Of Six Paths (mythical Ninja Jesus), he is also the reincarnation of the good son of the Sage of Six Paths who's destined to get strong and battle the reincarnation of the evil son. Naruto always had it easier than those with worse parentage.
The final powerups necessary to defeat the final bosses don't come from the people of the Ninja world training hard and using great teamwork and strategy to overcome overwhelming odds. It's handed to them by deus ex machina ninja jesus spirits.
This really detracts from all the "Fuck destiny!" shit the story's said until now.

So here you post your fanfiction of chinese cartoons if you have any. The rules for posting are the following: 1) Avatar: The Last Airbender is an anime. 2) Panty and Stocking is a cartoon. 3) The tier-list for animes goes as follows: Eromanga-sensei>Mad Bull 34>Sword Art Online> Garcy's wings>>>>>>Death Note.

ITT: Post Waifus and Waifu tier grills because you can only have one and I have nothing better to do.

An odd discussion topic, but considering how most Shonen anime are intertwined with Japanese culture, what do you think an American anime would look like?

Not just western cartoon that copies the Japanese art style and assorted asian themes/symbolism/spirituality like Avatar, but a purely American thing that looks Japanese but still kept the American sensibilities.

It's not just hilarious and pretty hot sometimes, it's also redpilled!
Government intervention and "anti-racism" do more harm than good in this series.
Like the "no fucking your monster-girl homestay" law that gets in the way of the show's loving relationships fucking
and the "Monster and human can't legally hurt each other" law that means a gang of human rapists can grope a centaur girl all they want, she'll be in trouble if she kicks them away and runs away, and a human will be needed to save her.
It also acknowledges the fact that there are fundamental differences between races that means they should get and require different treatments.
Sometimes dumb fucking Orcs will break into a manga shop and take hostages, and it will be necessary to put them down like mad dogs. And if the govt says humans and monsters can't harm each other and only monster can harm monster, that means a squad of monsters allowed to kill led by a human will be needed to do the deed.
If you're going to have a Mermaid with you, she will need a swimming pool to live in. A mermaid girl will never be a professional sprinter.
Sometimes a Slime Girl is going to feed on a woman's fluids and if that feels like molestation to you, that's on you.
The thing that makes the government worker character, Agent Smith, a good guy? She usually knows when to turn her head and look the other way, like she did when Suu was introduced and she said "fuck it i'm too busy to admit i just discovered a new monster species, if anyone asks she doesn't legally exist"
It's not extremely redpilled, and I find myself wondering where all this cash to make swimming pools and house expansions comes from (monster lands, hopefully) but it's still a nice change of pace.

I'm more of a /lit/ fag than an anime kind of guy, but people have been recommending me animes left and right lately and I'd like to give some of them a shot in their best possible format. I'm a bit nervous about Piratebay because of the takeover there, and I'd like to know what sites you all use for your anime torrenting.

How fucking cool would it be to have a chess anime? No magic or anything, just some high school nerds kicking each other's asses at the best game that has ever existed.

Kyouto Animation, a famous and beloved japanese Anime studio responsible for works like K-On!, the melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya and contracts works for Ghibli, has been destroyed by a fire on Thursday, July 18th 2019.

41 year old male arsonists sets Studio ablaze because "they ruined his favourite anime". As of the writing of this post the suspect is alive, being held in a hospital for burn wounds.

this is about as close to murder of not only real people and invaluable amounts of work, but also genocide of anime girls as it gets. I dont know if Japan has a death penalty. but this would certainly warrant a case.

+ + + Sad Panda, One of the biggest Hentai Sites on the Internet with a 20 year history is shutting down+ + +
after a legislation change in the hosting country of the Netherlands.
No official statement has been made by the company or the server providers as of yet.

The head admin has given up and surrenders to the authorities, burning the whole place down due to the hosted loli & shota pictures.

Screencap assembly of one of the insiders. This whole shutdown would have gone on in silence would it not have been for people like him.
as of the writing of this post, most of the content is already gone and the site mostly shut down
This is a decisive blow against Western Hentai hosting and Reposting services and will in all likelihood lead to the shut down of other sites in the coming weeks. One of them possibly being N-Hentai, A Doujin reupload data base.

4chan*s Hentai board (among other communities) had undertaken last minute emergency measures to save as much content as humanly possibly. but given the short time window of 12 hours this had to take place in, it can be assumed that many portions of the double digits gigabytes of content have been lost forever to the aether. Decades worth of the lifes work of some of the most talented Hentai artists on the planet.

I have personally never used Sad Panda myself but considering how Influential and old this site was, this is a dark day for Porn on the Internet and the ever shrinking Freedom of Expression on the Internet.

The content creators of MLPOL wish Sad Pandas people a swift recovery and good fortune in finding a new home for their passion.

AWWOOOOOO !!!!

The animes on the list are compared to eachother. Even the ones in the 1-tier have things I like and I know there are flaws in Death Note. Some are higher up for subjective reasons not just quality.

Man stabbed by woman in Tokyo apartment

TOKYO - Japan

"Police have arrested a 21-year-old woman on suspicion of attempted murder after she stabbed a male acquaintance in her apartment in Tokyo’s Shinjuku district on Thursday.

Police said they received a call at around 4 p.m. from a woman saying that she had stabbed a man in the stomach, Sankei Shimbun reported. Police rushed to the scene and found the man, who is in his 20s to 30s, collapsed and bleeding at the entrance to the apartment building. He was taken to a hospital where he is currently in critical condition.

The woman who lives in the 5th-floor apartment, Yuka Takaoka, was sitting at his side. Police said she admitted to stabbing the man and then calling them.

Takaoka, who occupation is unknown, was quoted by police as saying, “’My plan was to first kill him and then I thought about committing suicide.”"

-----

According to the comment section of the news site, the man was stabbed into the abdomen and passed away in the hospital from blood loss. The motive for the murder is unknown, but it is suspected that there were relationship issues involved.

Today is September 9th 9/9/2018 it is the day dedicated to the strongest! Post your favorite Cirnos.

Okay since we started having /a/ on mlpol, I've kinda wanted to make a thread for this for a while and could definitely do with a thread with some actual discussion in here.

>So what is Kemono Friends?

It follows the adventures of Kaban and her new friend Serval as they explore and learn about all the different "Friends" (Animals turned into humanised versions of themselves) that live within Japari Park.

>Why should I watch it?

What makes this show great for me and a few others is despite the fact it's 3D animation is very basic, it's story is a breath of fresh air. While it may seem basic on the surface and come off as Dora the Explorer there is more hidden below the surface. It's world building is much more showing in a subtle way then telling the viewer straight up. Plus it's a wholesome show thats not like all the kike made shows made for kids these days.

To put it simply, the show is very much like the Japanese version of MLP

So have you watched the show? What do you think about it? Also who is the best Friend?

also what weeb-shit are you looking forward to this season?

What were animes that really affected you and changed what you think or who you are?

For me it is "School days" especially "Everybodies Makoto"

What about you?

Rozen Maiden has won anime night! Tuesday at 6pm PST we will watch 4 Episodes a night! I will be posting the rabbit link Tuesday before the show!

what's the general consensus on this? I was always under the impression the main draw to the original series was the animation, and it seems incredibly flat in this one. Is it just me being gay or it the show shit?

Yeah it's true

I like corm

Since we finally have an /a/ board, might as well have a ghibli thread. Post Ghibli Music, pictures, and discuss all things Ghibli!

Every man has needs, and this man needs corndogs.

I'm starting a Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood stream to kick off /a/ if anyone would like to join.

I figure we'll start with episode 1 and go on for as long as we can.
Starts in 15 minutes.

I need to see more mature anime that doesn't end with some kid blowing up entire cities in a fight with some bad guy. Not knociking that stuff, time and place for everything. Anyone know any anime that just tell good stories while being a little more level headed?

If you haven't seen mushishi I recommend
it because it's just chilled out ghost tales that are solved by a roaming sort of shamen. The music and artwork displayed is also beautiful.

Anyone else a fan of Rumiko Takahashi? Back in the early 2000s when Inuyasha was rabidly popular there was a lot of discussion of her, but you don't really hear as much about her these days. I get the impression a lot of younger fans aren't as familiar with her. She's known for doing extremely long-running stories that usually focus on romance and comedy, with the exception of Inuyasha and Mermaid Saga, which are somewhat darker works. In Japan she is regarded as one of the most significant manga authors in history.

Notable works include:
>Ranma 1/2
>Maison Ikkoku
>Inuyasha
>Urusei Yatsura
>Mermaid Saga

Currently running one is Rin-ne, which I am ridiculously far behind on.

So here is the rules use this shitty site and get a power and then justify how you would lose to the character in the image. Your opponent will be gohan. You get 5 separate superpowers using this site. Also no cheating so if you get 4 crappy superpowers and you get an OP power. You have to use all 5 powers during the fight and no copping out with I won't use this 1 OP ability.

Can you discuss VNs on this board? Or are you supposed to discuss that on /vx/?
Pic not related.

Because why not..

ITT: shows you know you're hyping too much but you don't feel bad about it.

Honestly like it. What do you guys think about it. Watching some autist sperg about goblin's never gets old.

ヘッツァ (Hetza)

A thread dedicated to one of the most brilliant japanese Anime and Hentai Artists known to me, Hetza Hellshock. If you spend any time on a right leaning anime board, you have probably seen artwork from him. Hetza is Famous for his Dark coloring, military drawings, Pin UPs and gore.

This thread will include SFW and NSFW artwork from my personal Hellshock folder, who I made in 2016. I may or may not add additional works later on. Feel free to contribute if you possess picture of this artist yourself.
