/jp/ - Otaku Culture

>I guess it's a generation gap thing, but I just can't handle everything being 'chad' or 'tranny' and the other modern teenager speak alongside my escapism.
I dunno, I've been here since at least early 2004 when the site still risked dying permanently and would go down at times. I was in college then and I don't even understand why I was here past 2007. I also didn't understand the appeal of raiding children's sites or prank calling gamestop either due to being an adult, but I've just learned to accept it in this time I guess. Honestly, at least these days it's just people whining about why women don't like them and about transpeople ruining video games and discords while TV pushes gay shit everywhere. If this were older 4chan, you'd probably be seeing constant threads about going to raid the discords instead of the discords raiding this site. Although if this were older 4chan you'd probably see more pro-trans people asking for dick pics. Anyway, moving on before I rant about why /v/ should have been deleted and /pol/ should have never had 3 incarnations.

The point, is I don't care about it as much myself since the site was dead before /jp/ existed and I don't even get the people who think of /jp/ as their home since I was around before 4chan became so obsessed with boards being different from other boards and before the internet was a replacement/extension for your life instead of just something you did seperate from your life.

>Can you guys just shut up and allow people to discuss things without your boring gossip and attention whoring?
This is the real problem though, not wojack permutations, not tranny/chud whatever, but namdropping. Namedropping tripfags, cosplay attention whores, and off-board people that made them angry. All throughout /jp/'s history, all throughout 4chan's history. Although I'm reminded of this (image).

>I think this is a major thing that happens to people as they get older, they still want to talk to people that experienced the same things
I don't know how old any of you fuckers are and that's the point. I'm sure there are people who are in their 40s and 50s here still acting like retarded teens.

>Would you mind linking the threads that you like?
Curiously, I don't like much of anything here. I think the threads about real life Japan and Japanese people needs it own board, but I don't deny train otaku are otaku, idol otaku are otaku, and men and women pretending to be anime characters aren't otaku. Someone who plays video games and sings anime songs for a living is an otaku as well. I'm also not against using other boards. Most threads I visit are in /vst/ now. The old threads I liked were the various MMO threads and doujin game and erogame like Illusion's games and Violated Heroine. I kind of miss seeing what new piece of shit Illusion would churn out with /jp/. I liked the old doll threads, but not the new ones. I also like the OC threads and would make one if I wasn't lazy, but they started attracting people who were undesirable and pretty much always contained people who would somehow form off-board circlejerks and start namedropping. (in fact I've never made an "official" OC thread, only threads about specific OC topics.)

As far as /jp/ goes.
>>36366778 >>36791904 and >>36586970 are currently the only threads that currently interest me. I'd make a thread I like myself but the new captcha always gives a sliding version on making a new thread, so I have to start up another browser than my intentionally outdated one. (since it won't slide on this version)

Going back to the first point about lingo, I don't really give a single shit since I'm not allowed to say things like 'lollercoaster' anymore. I think "glownigger" is a hilarious word, but that's because I love schizo rants like the time cube and computer god things, which is what that phrase is abbreviated from. It's also a good catch-all term for things like "feds", "falseflaggers", "dataminer" and such activities that you imagine to be carried out by 3-letter organizations. Also if /prog/ were still around, you'd probably hear that term literally all the time on /jp/ because of it originating from an insane programmer.

kiara will always be her spiritual successor

i disregarded holoEN because they’re all roasties but i keep seeing kiara interacting with my qt pi japanese waifus
should i follow her despite her roommate being applemilk 2.0?

Why is it that western(American?) otaku like the word "baka" so much? It can't be just because it's common. You never hear them going "aho" or "yarou" or anything.

You know this image is older than /jp/, but out of curiosity, how would it be viewed in modern 4chan culture? Shit that should go back to the graveyard? Quaint images from ancestral times?

I think it's /jp/ related, but is it modern /jp/ appropriate?
