Yes i assume. Came in and asked for Anime recommendation. But he is still a faggot.
Dunno if 4 years count as nostalgia, but this was a thing even in 2006+
I used the side frame to refresh boards until it was removed. My first post on /a/ was eva vs elfen leid and it got serious replies.
This place has been my home for 7 years. Holy shit.
>>114550781
>>114550816
>>114550625
Instead what if, for old times sake, we made a thread which actually discusses an anime?
I am pic related old. Do I count as old?

You'll have to go a thread about currently airing anime you don't watch for that.
I'm currently listening to my /a/ sings playlist. Goddammit /a/, I love you guys.
Mudo walked around the outside of the school building.
"Why haven't I touched her yet?" he thought to himself. "I bet she feels nice."
Just then he saw the object of his thoughts, the thing known as Potemayo sleeping in the sunshine under a tree. She wasn't wearing the bottom part of her clothes, whatever it is. Then he saw it billowing on a clothes line, drying in the sunlight.
"She must have wet herself again" he thought. For some reason, this made him feel a little aroused. "Now's my chance."
Mudo walked up to where it was laying and reached his hand downwards. She made pleasing sounds in her sleep. His hand came into contact with her rotund body.
"At last" he thought. Potemayo felt soft and warm to the touch, like a warm bag of oatmeal. Mudo then proceeded to pick her up. He squeezed her quite gently. She stirred slightly. "Suny-ao" she murmured in her half awake state.
A devilish thought came into Mudo's mind.
>>114551345
Oh fuck you I can't believe I remember that show much less this pasta
inb4 the obligatory retards that claim old 4chan was more cancerous
I'm nostalgic for the days when 4chan didn't censor shit based on who moot is friends with.

Holy shit. Now that's nostalgia.
>>114551366
>>114551401
He held her tightly and ran into the school building towards the bathrooms. Checking that no one had seen him, he went inside. The room was empty.
Mudo entered one of the stalls and locked the door. Potemayo was awake by now. "Honi honi" she cooed looking up at him with her large round eyes from the toilet seat where he had placed her.
Slowly, Mudo began to undo his trousers and pull them down. When they had been removed he quickly grabbed Potemayo by her stubby arms and sat on the waiting seat.
Not expecting this, Potemayo started snarling angrily at him.
"SHAAAAAAAAAAAA" she growled, attempting to intimidate him.
Seeing that this had no effect on her captor, Potemayo's anger turned to fear at what was going to happen. This only made Mudo more aroused.
>>114551421
Get out
>>114551452
"Aaaah" he cried as he ran her up and down, alternating between smooth and rough movements.
Potemayo was now visibly terrified and wet herself all over his penis and crotch area. While he enjoyed the feeling of the warm liquid cascading onto his groin, he had been urinated on and saw this as a grave insult.
He picked her up and stabbed at her with his erect penis, causing further cries of fear from his pink haired captive. Mudo then noticed the source of the previous urination, which must be the equivalent of a vagina for a human. It was still trickling urine.
Slowly, he lifted her up again, then began lowering her onto his waiting cock. Potemayo began thrashing to escape, knowing that something bad was going to happen, but it was no use. Mudo's human hands were much stronger than Potemayo.
"I wonder if it will fit" Mudo asked himself as he lay poised to enter his class's mascot creature.
In one swift movement, he brought her down onto his penis, entering her opening roughly. He had no lubricant, and thus it was not an easy fit, and Mudo was sure he felt tearing and rupturing on his way in.
Potemayo let out a screech of agony as the foreign object which was Mudo's penis buried itself deep inside her. Never had she been in such pain.
After a short time of getting used to his situation, where the only thing that happened were more cries from Potemayo, he began thrusting into her. Holding her in place by her arms with his hands, he lifted her up and thrust into her, savouring her tightness around his penis. This carried on until he felt satisfied. He did not care that he was irrevocably damaging the innards of Potemayo, indeed, the pounding had made it easier to move around and the blood acted as a lubricant as it flowed down onto his shaft.

>KS is the best thing that ever happened on /a/ in long time

>>114551528
Well, if you cast your mind back to just before and after the demo, it kinda was.
The OC being generated for it was crazy. It put most people on the board in such a happy, productive mood for some odd reason. I guess we all got super carried away with the fact that our board was making a VN
I wonder if she's still trying to post.
>>114551571
and that happy positive mood turned shit negative real quick, fucking /v/tard i swear.
>>114551528
>>114551571
I can't believe how overblown that shit got when it was finally released
Does /vg/ still have threads about it?
Last time I went there the general was numbered around ~2200
>>114551618
Someone post the updated picture.
>>114551643
It's #2481 now.
>>114550625
I wonder who's the anon who took this screenshot. Why did he do it? It's become one of the most iconic and popular images of pre-Chanology 4chan.
>>114551643
Yup. They are on thread 2481
How the fuck they still manage to find thinks to talk about, I'll never know.
Well, one good thing that the release of the game caused was Katawa Crash. That was fun for a few days.

Did it happened again this year?

Whats so good about nostalgia?
I'd personally enjoy an anime / manga discussion thread more, or a general where we create lots of original content to contribute to the community...

No, the internet, and by extent, 4chan was different back then. You would know that if you weren't 16.
>>114551009
Things have changed. It was entirely acceptable to type like that here back in the years of 03 to 08
>>114550625

>>114550625

iirc most emotes aside from XD and ;_; were considered gaia shit
>>114551700
Its mostly porn, fanart/fic, a weird kind of subforum for the community where they talk about whatever they feel like, some general VN discussion, and stuff related to the Emi workout regimes etc.
Shit is barely related to the game most of the time.

Enjoy. Also, check out the /f/lash archive http://www.4chan.org/flash.
I don't get emotionally attached to anime imageboards because I am not a faggot.
>>114551957
Oh fuck off.
Been here on and off since the beginning.
My favorite moment in /a/ history was the kurosawa summer. We really came together like the gay faggots we were. I'm still embarrassed in participating in it to be honest but it still is fun to remember. Holy fuck we were all such big faggots then.
The absolute lowest point was during the accel/propane/wiki/taiga/lancedjack days. The board was basically unusable. I remember trying to make threads back then and everything had someone who didn't like it and had access to shitty spam software.
Before this low point the board had been continuously getting worse every year. The jokes really weren't funny. It was all very lowbrow humor. Certain anime were constantly put on a pedestal and we made the same fucking threads about them for years. It took a long time for us to transition from talking about the same shit every day to becoming a seasonal anime board, which was very good.
I remember for the longest time people were clueless about this transition and asked continually why we don't talk about X ever. That was really frustrating. After we got over talking only about the "classics" over and over again we started making threads about popular airing anime. Because of the nature of fan-subbing not everything got subbed quickly and certain shows completely dominated /a/. This was the low point mentioned earlier.
Today I think /a/ is better than ever. We talk about a diverse amount of anime that is new. We even have a decent amount of manga discussion. Honestly if I had to pick at any point to be an /a/ user it would be now. I only semi fucking hate you guys. Group hug.
>>114552209
>because I have only been here a year
Fixed
>>114552148
>Just saying that kiddies who got here post-Chanology really don't get to be "nostalgic".
As much as I agree with the mindset, sometimes you have to take a step back and realize that that time period was 6 years ago. For someone who was 18 then that's a quarter of their life.
>>114552172
Go far enough you can use troll face and other shit with ease before other places got hold of it.
Never change /a/.
>>114552237
Thank you for giving me hope for the future anon-kun.
>>114552250
Time to get off /a/ grandpa.
>>114552237
How long has /a/ had its obsession with being little girls and boypussies?
Maybe one day it will return
>>114552199
Now I kind of regret lurking like a mature person back then. I wish I had spammed desu too.
>>114552271
I thought the gb2gaia shit was before or during when using troll face was acceptable
Granted it's been a few years it's hard to keep track of what was acceptable and when
I have a lots of old anime screencaps/art/shit, but I'm only going to post a thing or two because I'm ill as fuck.
>>114552328
I remember when it was just "anime" without manga.
>>114552237
8 years later and im still here, Jesus Christ im really a faggot
So is Naruto still the best Chinease Cartoon /a/?
>>114552263
Still, there's no real point to threads like these, hell, I come here to discuss anime and avoid the "le /board/ cultur XD" threads that infest literally every other board.
Also, would someone tell me if putting "sage" in the Email field on 4chanX still works? I can't tell if I'm bumping this thread or not.
>>114552237
I would disagree that the board has made a transition to being seasonal. There are less off topic threads than before but you could find enough discussion back then too. I avoided the drama the best I could so it never really dominated /a/ for me. Instead the stuff that stuck out was on topic thread spam or out of the blue stuff like board redirecting.
>>114552365

>>114551957
>Using emoticons makes you look like a retarded teen.
I does now because retarded teens adopted emoticons in mass but emoticons were used since the BBS times and a part of the old school internet culture. You just don't know about it because you are too young.
>>114551401
>>114552383
Sage works, just isn't visible anymore.
I think pointless thread caps are the price to pay for threads like this. We can benefit from these discussions now and then, otherwise you don't realize just how much things have improved.
And it's not like the catalog hasn't made ignoring them in favor of stuff you like infinitely easier.

>>114552454
>otherwise you don't realize just how much things have improved.
I don't know if it's improved though.
We look back at those threads and cringe, but judging by the other reactions it was funny back then.
Whereas now it's self-pity threads and >tfw no gf shit everywhere. At least /a/ tries to stay on topic.
And yeah, the catalog is one of the few good things moot has added to the site.
Oh FSN, at least you're still in my life.
>>114552558
Based KoG.
>>114550771
Nah, he is busy
Been doing chartshit on /a/ for a long time, but I'm still not sure I regret starting the fake season chart stuff for this sole reason.
>>114552599
F/SN has a special place with /a/ seeing how it became 10 years old this year and 4chan is 11.
>>114552312
You're not a little girl?
>>114552328
It ended on that day moot was interviewed by 2ch.

You sound like you were a part of the problem back in 2009. Just stay gone the board is better now.

>Whereas now it's self-pity threads and >tfw no gf shit everywhere.
There were always threads about not knowing what it's like to hug/kiss someone or just general ronery threads. Some of the stuff you see now is legitimate, but some of it leaks over from other boards like threads are bound to.
>>114550625
i thought all the shitposters said /a/ came before /b/
Do we got this for 2012 and 2013?
>>114552636
I suppose.
>>114552655
Is dat sum NTR?
Original character.
Plz dont steal
>>114552718
/b/ used to be an anime board.
>>114552618
I'm still waiting for The Twelve Kingdoms S2.
>>114552617
Being a faggot.
>>114552718
/b/ used to be anime and random.
Then moot seperated anime into /a/ and left /b/ for random.
>>114552718
/b/ was anime and random for a few weeks in 2003. /a/ is literally /b/ 2.0.
>>114552670
/a/ is the best board on the site, it's because meta-threads and "bord cultur" shit is discouraged.
I asked because I didn't want to bump a shit thread and I didn't know if moot removed the Email field or just renamed it.
>>114552655
Is that moot's ex girlfriend with another guy? Thats not nice, anon.
>>114552692
Good thread
>>114552767
As expected of moot
>>114552780
>it's because meta-threads and "bord cultur" shit is discouraged.
Ha ha, no. Those things are jus encouraged heavily here.
>>114551171
Several years later I noticed it was no longer like that, and realized I didn't know when it was changed back.
>>114552719
>banning General threads
>listed as faggotry

Then again that whole image is /a/ newfag central, the same kind of people that like TTGL, Code Geass, Bleach etc.
Good fucking riddance
>>114552822
Which is why the board is going to shit.
Still one of the most fun threads I experienced here. I wish I had saved it and not just some of the images.
When was the time Gary Motherfucking Oak was spammed on /a/? I think that was the time I first came here.
>>114552844
I think it's fine. Bigger threat are normies making shitty refuge threads for people who barely watch anime.
>>114552618
This is from back before roulette threads were banned.
/a/ has SnK general and thats all I need.
>>114552844
>going to
But it's always been like that. The site doesn't change, it just replaces one unfunny meme with the other.
>>114552932
God I forgot about roulette threads. Those things were fucking cancer.
Anybody want to play a game of pretend?
>>114552899
2008 was the epitome of Gary Motherfucking Oak.
>>114552908
I'll agree that that's worse, that shit needs to stop along with "let's blog about my life that's only somewhat tangentially related to anime" threads.
>>114552953
>The site doesn't change, it just replaces one unfunny meme with the other.
I can dream, can't I?
>>114552826
General threads are still around. Most seasonal anime have one, along with some other series.
Up right now: Free, Saki, KanColle, DJT, TM, OPT, /aikatsu/, JoJo, GuP, Yugioh, Buyfag, One Piece, Koe no Katachi, SnK, Nanoha, Drawfag, Precure, Miuna, Chaika, Digimon, /ai/, Key, HxH
And we'd have even more if Fall season were started.
>>114551492
The funny part is that's it's not even from /a/ originally. I blew my fucking ass when all the faggots from /a/ fell for that pasta
>>114552932
>Hard gay

I miss our OC exploitable threads.
>>114553024

On one hand the manga went to shit and just ended with a whimper, on the other hand it really got an anime with all the good parts.

>Mahoro
Oh fuck I feel old now.
>>114553013
Where's the one with Konata?
>>114553047
I wouldn't count most of those as generals. Most are currently airing series and others are only around for their release days
The ones that faggots post every single day, without any fresh content at all need to die, but mods no longer care. Most boards are ruined with the plague of fucking General threads, I detest them and the posters in them
>>114553153
Threads that will be gone in a few days aren't Generals you fucking retard
>>114553031
>"let's blog about my life that's only somewhat tangentially related to anime" threads.
But that has also been a thing here for almost a decade now. The site just replaces one dumb shit with another until you no longer fund the users and what they post funny. At which point most users cry that the site is dead and they miss the good old days of the year when they first joined the site etc.
>>114553047
>no Fate thread
Seems like I've got something to do here
>>114553245
There are several fate threads up because of the new series airing.
>>114553245
Fate thread is up already, just at bump limit.
>>114553220
>At which point most users cry that the site is dead and they miss the good old days of the year when they first joined the site etc.
People do this? I granted, I got here in 2011, just before /new/ was deleted and resurrected as /pol/. But I have no love for those days at all, they were just shit.
Recent shitstorms have brought the site down to that quality though.
I'm a super girl!
>>114553316
People who joined in like 2007-9 were notorious for whining that their shitposting was being deleted
Some of it was fun, but most of it was awful and I'm glad it's gone. Boards like /v/ got so bad until the board split. /vg/ is a total cesspit
>>114553245
UBW is airing soon. Don't bother.
>>114553212
Free ended, Saki is monthly, TM is only starting soon, JoJo ended, GuP is over for now, same with SnK, Nanoha is paused between movies, Nagi no Asukara is finished, Chaika threads I wouldn't have included if they weren't so frequent during the down time, Digimon and Key are over, HxH is both done and on hiatus.
So I guess the ones still going are Aikatsu, Yugioh, One Piece, Koe no Katachi, Precure. Still generals but some new content.
Stuff like DJT and Buyfag threads are more /jp/ than /a/.
>>114553245
I said TM because sometimes the threads are Tsukihime/Mahoyo.
>>114551771
People might look at this and think we were stupid, but rather, it's just that things were more simple back then.
It's like how you look back to the thingsyou did/liked in childhood but seem silly now.
>>114552780
You're criticizing meta threads, yet you have been continuously making meta posts yourself for almost an hour. I can almost feel how hard this newfag wishes to be a mod it's not even funny.

>Boards like /v/ got so bad until the board split. /vg/ is a total cesspit
/vg/ has actual discussion though, /v/ is mostly console war bullshit and filename threads at this point.
They're both terrible still, just for different reasons.

Have been saging and encouraging everyone else to do the same.
Keep projecting though.

>Saki is monthly
Saki threads are still up almost 24/7, though probably at most half the time this month because delays. Right now it has good reason to exist though because the new chapter was leaked, but most of the time it's just Toki shitposting and imagedumping.

4chan was always counter culture. The internet was too serious back then, so 4chan wasn't. When everyone started to realize Internet meant absolute freedom to do whatever you wanted, 4chan started to become more conservative.
Hey /a/How about that Island?

I didn't mean the threads were up monthly, I was saying the manga is only monthly but the threads are up constantly. That line was me justifying why I considered them generals.

It's not like your sage really does anything when the thread is being this active.

Irreverent to my post.

Not as much. Lolimod was the fucking worst.
>Didn't even like Loli
>Didn't even watch anime
What the fuck.
>>114553535
You don't need to watch anime to know a thread like "/sp/ here anime is for manchildren" is shit and remove it.
Good ol' times

Which is fine if they only touch blatantly bad threads. They don't, they delete on topic stuff that they don't understand.
