When I remember the old /a/ and what we have today... wow. moot leaving made me think about this.
This is now a casualized board, with shit like Hero Academia and SAO around the corner and weeaboo-wannabe fags watching crap they don't understand just because Urobuchi wrote it or the japs say it's good, like kancolle.
To tell you the truth, I don't even know where to go now: MAL is worse, reddit is shit, etc.
But it's not 4chan's fault, I blame the industry for casualizing anime trying to get a higher revenue, and that kind of killed the community we had until 5-6 years ago.
>>120203720
Kancolle and Hero Academia are less casual than Cowboy Bebop and Ghost in the Shell
>>120203720
Yeah the anime industry sure has casualized anime in recent years.
>>120203720
Well, shitpost in those threads if it makes you feel better. Some things are better off receiving the naruto-treatment than being ignored.
>>120203893
He probably means CR and shit like that.
welcome to the niwaka era OP
>>120203770
the latter two are good though
>>120204086
>Bebop
>better than Ksncolle
Take your nostalgia goggles off.
>>120204143
This bait is too delicious to pass up
>>120203720
You're the causal, faggot.
Might I remind you that the anime people talked about on old /a/ was the casual anime of the day. Hell, some of it aired on western tv, like all the toonami crap.
>>120204086
I'm sure that 10 years on nostalgiafaggots will claim SAO was good.
>>120203720
Yeah, in recent years we've had a massive influx of antisocial autistis like OP who jumped aboard after 2010 and pretend they're some kind of anime specialists, who actually hate anime and spend all their time complaining about the people who do. I fully understand why moot decidided to abandon ship.
>>120203720
Hero Academia is casual now? Copy that.
>>120204058
It's been a while since I heard that buzzword.
>>120204143
I actually havent seen either of the two you mentioned
bebop seems to be universally highly rated though and ghost in the shell was just perfect
seeing kancolle threads suggest it's very bad and hero academia... well, I don't know
People, please save this kuso thread by posting screenshots from pre-2005 /a/.
>>120204325
How about pre-2005 /v/?
>>120204143
Opinion discarded.
>>120204314
I always hated bebop. It's a pile of episodic crap.
>>120204314
Bebop was a shitty villain of the week show.
Keep it in one thread you shits.
So how many people will outlast moot that are still here?
>>120204305
Hero Academia is the most casual manga out right now. It's the new Naruto.
>>120203720
The /a/ i loved and admired have been long gone, OP you are not alone in your sorrow, even when most of the site only jokes arround I'm enough man to admit that Moot's retirement has made me questioning alot of things that i've been choosing to ignore to feel myself on my safe zone, one of them is what this site has become, what the industry has become.
I'm not sure if i love it like i used to or i just do what i do out of customs keeping my status quo, I'm sad about Moot leving but at the same time I'm glad for him and i truly wishi¿ him the best, I don't know if i'll be staying here long enough too.
You are the same cancer who kill /v/.
Cancer who think he must shitpost all day every day because someone dare to love something he doesn't like.
Following pseudo-elitistic attitude in order to fit in, to the point you actually think this is all for real.
>old /a/
Funny thing, because back then peopl hade e same weaboo plebeian tier tastes that you hate.
Guess what, this is not what /a/ was about, it was about having stupid fun, with chinese cartoons.
>>120204385
>Episodic crap
So you're too retarded to see the overarching plot? Also, episodic =/= bad.
>>120204385
Eh I didn't like Bebop much either, some episodes felt like a chore. But it's not really comparable to something like Kancolle that's just ridiculous shit made solely for people who like the game, they're on different levels.
>>120203720
Instead of just complaining, why not I don't know, make thread of things that interests you? People do still talk about classic stuff from time to time and nobody's forcing you to swallow their shit taste.
>>120204514
>Elitism is bad!
>>120204496
>capital M
ITT: Newfags pretending to be oldfags.
>>120204496
>Moot
>M
Also, reminder that the objective quality of the discussion on /a/ and of the anime industry hasn't changed. It's just that we have grown up over time without even realizing it.
Moot worship is the most pathetic thing on 4chan
