Why do you prefer anime over playing video games and other hobbies? pic maybe related

I don't.

Why do I have to have only one hobby?
>>
>>142647840
I don't just watch anime
>>
Video games are objectively better entertainment then anime. You are actively involved making decisions and thinking, with anime you just passively watch. I'm not saying watching anime isn't fun, just not as fun playing video games.

Gen 1 Pokemon was the best and you know it. Even the Pokemon anime started going to shit after kanto.
>>
I dont prefer it, I have many hobbies

And 4chan is fucking up again
HIROYUKIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
>>
>>142648392
fucking false gen 2 was the peak
there is literally no reason to prefer the 1st gen aside from nostalgia
>>
>>142647840
Sometimes I just feel too lazy to procrastinate by playing videogames.
>>
not doing both at the same time
cauals
>>
>>142647840
It adds a nice sense of playful release over the long and stressful work days. I also play vidya games and do other shit.
I don't limit myself, if it makes me happy I do it.
>>
>>142647944
So is anime.

Sounds like what a pedo would say

>>142649440
You sound a mentally well balanced individual. WTF are you doing on 4chan?
>>
Multiplayer games are full of retards
Single player games are mostly recycled garbage
Well, anime too, but for free
>>
>>142647840
Because its fun and easy to watch and 3D stuff is usually shittier.

Gen 5 was the best and I've been on that ride since 1999. Fucking nostalgia goggles. And the anime was always shit.

>>142647840
Does "anime" in your question include just anime or all weebshit? Because it's different than anything in the west and because it caters to my fetishes.

Besides, I haven't enjoyed a video game since Deus Ex:HR, which I still hold as the best title from the 10s thus far but I also barely play anything new these days because nothing catches my interest.

It's sometimes interesting and it's cheap. I've got other hobbies, but those are harder to do when poor as shit.

I've always loved comics and cartoons. Japan is to hand-drawn media what Hollywood is to live-action.
As a kid I spent more time reading Larry Gonick's stuff than any other single creator. He was unseated in that respect by Kentaro Yabuki.
>>
Too many people end up here because they dont know any better or are poor shits
Not too many real fans of animation and cinematography/direction left
>>
>>142650780
Anybody who uses "real fan(s)" should be executed. For a better future.

>>142650849
Ok autistic fuck cross out the word real so you dont get triggered

>>142650873
You're still a pretentious cunt even if I cross it out.

The difference between someone who takes the time to learn about and experience the many elements of a hobby and someone who doesn't is absolutely real you fucking donut.

>>142650961
No Im just sad that most people here are only into anime to masturbate to the girls or to be "healed" and the rest are edgy underages
For a board about animation there is barely any animation discussion

You can still like the animation while wanting to yoink it to lolis. Set your expectations lower or seek out an animation forum if /a/ doesn't suffice.

Why complain that there's no worthwhile discussion if you're just going to be obtuse when someone gives you a reason
>>
>>142647840
Video games is onerous task completion

Why would I want to do that
>>
>>142651054
People talk about animation quite a lot if you lurk enough to find it. Yes, if you compare it to the rest of the board's interest it will seem quite insignificant in comparison but that's to be expected. Most people don't know much about animation and they shouldn't be expected to. Also the board isn't for animation. It's for anime, which also includes many other key components(like storytelling, character design, voice acting etc) and don't even try to create a stupid linguistics argument here.

Expecting the majority of the discussion to revolve around animation itself is being utterly delusional.
>>
>>142651560
Ive been lurking for 12 years, there is barely any animation discussion and when there is is nothing but meme speak like "sakuga"
>>
>>142651054
have you been on any other board besides /a/?
>>
>>142648066
>60/40 split on an anime board.
I always knew no one really liked this trash.

I think a better question is:
If you don't like anime so much, why are you on /a/?
>>
>>142647840
I don't. I enjoy anime and video games, but it's not an important part of my life.
>>142651178
You remind me of myself a few months ago. You're quite new, aren't you? Soon you're going to get used to them and learn to ignore these people. /a/ is not really that bad... sometimes.
