What's the purpose of filler?
>>
Filling a gap in a story or just so you have more of something.
>>
It's to remind you that you'll never feel the pleasure of being cummed inside.
>>
>>141607650
To fill a gap in a story and hopefully provide some character development.
>>
Tastes good.
>>
>>141607650
Now I want cordon bleu.
Fuck you.
>>
>>141607650
I hate Cordon Bleu.
>>
>>141607847

/a/ hates good food.
>>
>>141607880
It doesn't have onions so it's probably good.
>>
>>141607880
>good food
I like cordon bleu, but let's be serious. It's pleb shit.
>>
>>141607650
Same purpose it serves in food. To make more of something for cheaper at the cost of quality
>>
To make up the lack of meat in a story.
>>
>>141607847
How can you hate Cordon Bleu? Just looking at that picture makes me hungry.
>>
>>141607911
>Hating onions
>Hating the thing that flavors a lot of food in general
>>
>>141607650
There's two kinds.
The Detective Conan manga kind, and the long-running anime adaptation kind.
Which one are you talking about?
>>
What's the purpose of movie versions of TV series?
>>
>>141608035
$$$
>>
>>141608035
To make money!!
>>
>>141607911
>it's that jaw seminar faggot again
>>
>>141607979
Me too but now I just want a regular Schnitzel with a lemon and potato salad. Cordon Bleu just tastes so stupid in comparison, the cheese and ham completely kill the flavor of the meat.
>>
>>141608149
It worked for me.
>>
Thanks you faggot, now i absolutely have to eat cordon bleu
>>
>>141607650
Hold the fort until the cavalry arrives.

To give the manga time to make more chapters, instead of pacing your anime better.
Or to adjust pace in a series where you know how many episodes you can do

pigs are delicious and so are you

Makes things more filing
>>
Filler is just so you can see the characters you like (waifus) more. Haruhi could've been over in like 6 episodes if it wasn't for filler.
>>
>>141608035
>1 pound
>450 grams
>>
>>141610358
There's at least 3 different pounds out there. Why not a 450g one?
>>

Inshallah Takbir

Giving the manga that the adaption is based on more time to make content. Unfortunately, filler tends to make a good show bad by dragging things out for too long.
>>
>>141608035
>eats 5 pounds of steak and all the sides

Where is she putting it all. holy crap.
>>
>>141608153
You guy never ate a good home-made cordon bleu
>>
>>141607650
To fill time, retard.
>>
>>141610535
Gintama had an excellent episode explaining it.
>>
>>141607650
if it was actually written in the manga/source, would it make you feel better?
>>
>>141607847
>being gay
>>
>>141607650
It depends. Sometimes it only exists to give the manga more time to progress, sometimes it is a device used to help slow the pacing of the show. It's not always bad to have a content sparse episode if it's used as a mechanism to help the overall show be more digestible, constant bombardment with information can ruin a viewing experience.
>>
We all know the real answer.
But if it's fun, who really cares?
>>
Filler is an adaption thing and is used to pad out material to either make the source last longer or give the source time to release new material to adapt.

Full arcs and dull moments away from the main plot in an original series is not filler. Just boring parts of the story.
>>
>>141610358
Yes, that's entirely correct.

Not him but why would you suppose he's Muslim?
Pigs aren't kosher in Judaism as well.
Well, except in shitty reform """"Jewish""" movements.
>>
>>141614051
Because /a/ is currently a bit paranoid.
>>
>>141607650
saving budget
>>
>>141607979
Are you perhaps overweight and like to eat everything you see? Or are you starving? I get no desire from that picture. I cannot understand how people get hungry from a picture.
>>
>>141614457
There's plenty of anons suffering from depressive disorder. Even if they are physically hungry, they won't really feel hungry because they don't really care. That's why /a/ is thinner on average than /v/. Video games usually attract pro-active people and those don't often forget to eat.
When such a depressed person is reminded of food, their already existing hunger surfaces. (they probably still won't act on it)
>>
>>141607650
I thought that was a ham and cheese croissant at first, holy fuck that looks delicious. I don't have anything to eat but a tub of nonfat greek yogurt though.

Filler is to pad out a show's length due to a lack of new chapters or a need to keep a show airing longer.

Nope. If someone makes Texas toast in the house I need to rent a motel for the night. Truly an awful awful seasoning.

If that is true, it's time to say sayonara to life, isn't it?

I have also put up cardboard on my windows to block out any sunlight. If I couldn't see my reflection I might actually think I am a vampire.

That's not universal lore, some vampires have reflections and cast a shadow as well.
>>
>>141607847
Where did you eat it? If you're talking about that shit from the freezer, no that isn't real Cordon Blue.

Shut up and post more pictures of food.

I have one of those same cutting boards.

Is that from down in Lockhart? NB's Session IPA is okay, and Lagunitas' Little Sumpin is meh, but most things from Karbach is A+. Would highly recommend, though the cans may be a bit off-putting at first glance.

Now I want Rudy's and a Karbach Mother-in-Lager.
