Did Jii-san buy his anime with his pension or just download them like a pleb?

the best way to find his reviews because he doesn't tag them like an attention whore is to look at his blog

>>134408463

I hate this image cause these aren't all his five star anime

>>134408947
Brought them. He often showed the DVDs in his videos and mention the dub if it had them.

Be glad that someone does.
>>
>>134408947
Definitely bought them. I chuckled whenever he popped in a laserdisc.

>>134408947
He streamed Highschool of the dead because no one should have to pay for this trash

Dear forum users,
My name is Jonathan Wayne and I have sad news to convey to all of you.
My beloved grandfather, Bruce Wayne, also known on the internet as "Grumpy jiisan" has recently passed away. As you might know my grandfather has stopped updating his youtube profile and website due to the severe arthritis plaguing his hands. In the past year his condition had deteriorated needing constant hospital care. Still, even while being hospitalized he retained his passion towards anime and tirelessly followed the newest releases on his laptop. He always spoke enthusiastically about his plans of making new reviews after his eventual recovery. Unfortunately, this never came to be.

Grumpy Jiisan had passed away quietly, surrounded by his loving family on the morning of january 4th, due to organ failure. My grandfather was 89 years old.

I am writing this message here because my grandfather frequently visited this forum and always spoke spirited about the loving community he had found here, despite only being able to make posts at a great difficulty. I believe he would have wished for it to inform you about his fate so we can all come in terms with the unavoidable reality.

My grandfather was a man of admiration who was able to connect with the younger generation through his hobby and passion for anime. He understood young people well and always spoke about understanding. He viewed the fragmentation over different tastes and "waifus" within the community disturbing, since in the end (using his words) we were all united through our love for anime. I hope his wise words can serve as an advice for many and would make the community a more welcoming place for everyone.
But now, the time is for mourning. Please remember my grandfather in your hearts as a sometimes grumpy, but energetic old anime fan, who loved everyone who shared his love for japanimation.

-Jonathan Wayne

There was also something about a guy whose email is [email protected] who knew him and he apparently said he was still alive but had some health issue.

>mfw some otaku admired him enough, his episodes were actually subtitled into Japanese

His enthusiasm for cartoons reached across cultural barriers, such was the power of Jii-san's gentle demeanour

other asian countries also took interest in him
pretty much as beloved as he is here

Excellent logic.

It was around since the 00s at least. It's literally an abbreviation of to be honest, which is used quite frequently. Not such a hard concept to grasp.

The other 2 shit that it's constantly accompanied by lately are new from what I can tell. At least I hadn't seen them when I started using the internet 16 years ago.

for starters you'd need to be a level 40 wizard

a beard, lots of anime experience, and the will

Jii-san seemed like a legit Gen 1 fan, starting with Star Blazers! I wish someone could at least get an interview with him he might be a 80's Robotech guy but still thats better than basically EVERYONE that's talks about anime on Youtube

Only people close I can think of are on the Anime World Order podcast.

yeah, you have a point cancerous fuck

The "he had a wife so you can't like him" shit is stupid, but I don't see what hiking has to do with being a normalfag or not.

I think being married it's ok if you're 60+ years old.

>>134414116
wow, has it been long since you left /r9k/ or are you still browsing it m9?
Actually kill yourself already
>>
>>134414066
Jii-san walked his own path, for one of us to follow his trail would lead to certain death. To survive the trials an aspiring Jii-san would face would require mental fortitude and astral knowledge only found in the wisest of warlocks. If there was a normie man capable of becoming another Jii-san, who would not live in his shadow, but cast their own. It wouldn't be right to call him a successor.

he watched the imported version of Seirei no Moribito
