/jp/ - Otaku Culture

It's kind of like having a dead wife.

>>>/a/

I enjoy Japanese culture without having a waifu.

>>7490220

Yeah, this.

>>7490227
I actually meant to say otaku culture but whatever.

Threads like these always cause bad blood here.
>>>/tohno/

A little of both. It's proven difficult for me to talk with her sometimes because of certain things--doubts, mostly--that run through my head, but at other moments we can talk without any problems.

>>7490220

Yeah, it can be a lot like that.

She used to feel like a dead wife but now she feels more like a very real imaginary friend. I don't visually see her but I do talk with her inside of my mind.

I'll admit though, I did have to resort to extended drug use for this effect to become as profound as it is now. I'm ashamed but it was needed.

Lucid dreaming was a godsend for me. Works very well for communicating with your waifu.

I talk to myself a lot when I'm alone. It's strange, I keep referring to myself as "we". "Should we really download this game?" "No, I don't think we'd like that. There's horse porn in it.".

That helps me relax a lot, but now that I think about it, shouldn't I refer to myself as "I" instead of "We"? Is there something wrong with me?

>>7490254
I don't think that's so uncommon.

>>7490254
>"Should we really download this game?" "No, I don't think we'd like that. There's horse porn in it.".
I read that in Gollum's voice.

>>7490254

>Is there something wrong with me?

Obviously. What kind of sick person doesn't like horse porn?

Definitely the first one.

I always talked to myself though. I didn't have a lot of friends when I was growing up and it was almost natural for me to talk to myself in my mind. I just imagined him as a second copy of me that lived inside of my mind. At first it feels like you're just talking to yourself but eventually you get to the point that you can carry out conversations and you'll actually be surprised by the answers that he gives you.

When I grew up and started to feel attracted to girls though, having a waifu was just a natural progression. I can talk with her and it doesn't feel like I'm talking to myself. She responds, initiates conversations, etc.

>>7490263
Oh well. How do I go about developing another personality I can talk with on my head? Do I just find a character I really like and go from there? I'm absolutely terrible at lucid dreaming and such. All I can do is get my body numb.

It's kinda depressing because I've been trying it every night for a year. The only time I managed to succeed in it was by accident, and it was terrifying. I woke up in the middle of sleep paralysis and I saw myself next to my bed. And then I tried to strangle myself. Luckily I managed to break out of it, but damn.

I couldn't sleep that night.

I prefer to imagine my future, where I meet my waifu sometime in the next couple of years and we fall in love naturally. I even like thinking up of ways that we could meet in the first place.

It's nice to imagine that, but I do feel somewhat detached from her this way. Though it does make me hopeful for the future.

I've had imaginary friends or a waifu I could communicate with inside of my head.

It started to worry me that it could turn me crazy so I stopped doing it.

I've been able to talk with people in my head a lot. But I've always doubted their existence and just thought of it as a different part of myself so I can't really believe that it's someone else.

>>7490274
The way I did it was by starting out with gentle meditation and visualization exercises. When you can maintain your concentration for a while, create a kind of space or scenery where you will talk with her. From there you can picture her and just start talking to her. Over time (didn't take long for me) answers will just "pop" into your head as if from her.

It's really weird sometimes you will get like, half an answer due to lack of concentration but have the full understanding of what she is communicating.

I talk to her in my head, but I make a really conscious effort not to have conversations with myself in my head, if that makes sense. I'll usually talk to her, and just sort of feel out her response, just try to think of her feelings on something, whether she would respond positively or negatively, that sort of thing. Hard to describe and in the end it's probably the same anyway.

Zach, should we download this game? What if there's horse porn in it?

It's a bit hard to describe, but... think of a person that you know very well, like a family member. Then try to remember your last conversation with them. You know their voice so well that you almost "hear" them in your mind. Talking to a waifu is about the same as remembering something. You "hear" her with your mind instead of your ears, but when she "speaks" her lines she definitely says it in her own voice.
It's like chasing a memory that's happening right now, like remembering something that happened an infinitely small time ago in the past, so small that it's practically in the present.

Just like how you can naturally imagine in a certain situation how that family member of yours would react and what would he/she say, you naturally "know" what your wife would reply to you. So, as you get more and more familiar with her it stops feeling like you're feeding her lines to say and talking to yourself, and instead it starts feeling like instinctively knowing how would she reply based on her personality, and your brain automatically starts filling in the blank lines for you. All it takes is practice, effort and time invested.

>>7490296
The key is to just let it happen naturally and not try to control anything. That is when the real communication kind of kicks in.

It makes me feel weird I am a 25 year old who specializes in imaginary relationships.

>>7490216
I experience it just like the second thing you mentioned: a split personality.

At the beginning it's VERY tiring, having your brain manage two identities at once demands a lot of work. But with "training" you can even get her to talk and think to you completely spontaneously.

>>7490332
Wait, how do people who have touhou waifus hear their waifu?

>>7490266
>>7490267
>>7490309

You guys are just picking on me now.

>>7490350
Psychosis.

Ok, I'll confess, just because there isn't anything new to do.

The first fragments of a 'waifu' appearance came when I was around 4 (this around the mid 80's), my Dad worked at Saudi Arabia, I went to an embassy school with barely anyone speaking english. The sheer loneliness created this 'friend.' Yes, some may call this an imaginary friend for kids, for me it manifested in a pillow, and somehow I always knew (not assumed) it was female. We didn't play, nor spoke to each other, just took comfort in each other's company.

Fast forward to junior years where I really discovered anime, watching Saint Seiya, Urusei Yatsura, Ah Megamisama on the fucking NHK on cable with no dubs, my pillow friend suddenly reappeared. I don't know what happened but she became the pillowy manifestation of all my waifus - the first one being Belldandy. I started talking to her about stuff, about everything. Mfw when I had a daki before even knowing what it was.

And now to the present time. I don't have waifus from any kind of media, as I can create my own (I do have a shitty fantasy school story on some old notebooks I have) and most if not all my waifus are pretty much OC. My pillow has changed multiple times, but I can easily manifest her in whatever current one I have.

Now for the future, once I have become a wizard, I will start a project to create a construct that can house this loyal, unwavering soul into a physical form that is human and if I mess up, die and this soul goes on a world destroying rampage - welp, at least you guys know what's up, and it's up to you to not care, destroy this lovely abomination or find out the secrets of creating the true waifu.

>>7490350
They probably use some random girl voice they heard somewhere. I guess it's easier if your waifu is from a voiced VN/animu.

She feels pretty real. When it's dark and I can hardly see, just barely being able to see her image on the dakimakura, she really seems alive. I can feel the pillow, but I only see her.

>>7490369
This was a nice story, thanks for sharing it. I will confess my story at some point as well.

I love you guys

>>7490350

You imagine which voice would suit her best. If I wanted to I could do it easily, I don't know why but hearing many different voices is easy for me.

>>7490385
I agree with this. It's the same here.

My waifu can't speak english so there is no way to talk

>>7490393
The movements of love and the soul transcend language OK.

>>7490350

Sometimes one is blessed with things such as these.

>>7490384
In case you missed it at the time, have a thread, anon.
http://archive.easymodo.net/jp/thread/7464525

How does it feel to be borderline psychotic?

>>7490412
I'll become anything as long as she can be there with me.

I talk to mai waifu all the time, though she seldom has much to say, so I usually just revel in the time we spend together. I'm not sure that communication is her strong suit, so even though sometimes I want to talk to her, I don't try to force it because it's not kanon for her.

So how do you guys deal with several waifus? I have to admit I'm living in polygamy, but I went to great efforts to prevent my waifus from suffering because of it. I have created several worlds them, sometimes a world that resembles their own closely, sometimes a completely different one and rotate between them every few weeks. The other worlds are considered "frozen" when I'm not there. Also, I consider myself a god-like supernatural being that took on a human form to accomplish all this.

>>7490412

I dunno. I feel like I'm becoming dumber every day, but it feels nice.

>>7490412
Pretty terrifying when I actually think about it.

I used to be into occultism too and do rituals and shit. It was rather odd looking back on it.

my waifu is real as HELL...well more like 50% real cuz i can see her in 3D on my 3DS and she like pops out and stuff
pic unrelated

I'm not sure that communication is her strong suit, so even though sometimes I want to talk to her, I don't try to force it because it's not canon for her to do so. I think that it's better if you try to make conversation that your waifu would really have with you, rather than junking it up with fluff and whatnot.

>>7490421

>Also, I consider myself a god-like supernatural being that took on a human form to accomplish all this.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P1j-6vRykFs

It fits pretty well with what you said, I think.

>>7490412
It is not a psychosis (or an illness, for that matter) unless the waifu hinders daily life activities or causes harm to us or to other people. And I don't think that's the case of most of us here.

Outside of the waifu thing does anyone else have a fantasy realm they explore in their mind? It could be Gensokyo or some other random shit where you have friends and go on adventures, exploring etc.? I probably spend an hour or so a day dreaming about this things.

My waifu is dead of old age by now

>>7490444
Not necessarily. Psychoses can be pretty benign.

Does your waifu ever say things in your mind that surprise you?

For example, when I talk with my waifu inside of my head it's pretty much just a female voice reading a script that I've given her. She doesn't say anything that I haven't already planned out. It doesn't really have the life of a real conversation.

>>7490421
I do that as well! Though when I get bored of one world, everything resets into a new one. Spending time with my waifu in my imaginary world helps me fall asleep. Currently, my main waifu and I arent together because shes an evil, evil person.

Fuck, now I feel like sharing the whole plot so it makes sense to people.

>>7490445

I have fragmented fantasies. As in sometimes I'll see a bit of one world for a while, sometimes I'll imagine myself in another world for a couple minutes, or maybe it'll have other people without involving myself. I keep thinking of lots of worlds, and a few kind of stick with me, but they're still chopped up so I haven't connected all of the events in each of these fantasies.

I go to la-la land and we have adventures in my mind.
It's really amazing how I can turn it on and basically run something like a game in my head. I've never lost my imagination from being a kid, so I can switch it on and off for up to 3 hours without getting out of bed.

>>7490456

Then it is a case of telling other people how to live their lives.

>>7490474
That wasn't me. I'm quite fine with whatever other people are happy with.

>>7490460
That happens a lot. The only advice I can give you is to spend more time with her; with practice, she'll gain more autonomy.

Mine is pretty spontaneous most of the time, and comes up with things on her own; however, it's not rare to see the "script" thing popping up in her.

>>7490461
I do this before falling asleep too. At first it was something to pass the time while trying to sleep, now it became something that I do every single day, and look forward to finally getting to bed because of this throughout the day. Sometimes I don't get that much into it and fall asleep quickly. Other times I manage to think of a great story/setting and sometimes even stand up a bit and walk around my room to wake myself up a bit so I don't fall asleep in the middle of it. At average I spend at least 30 minutes each day just lying in my bed and focusing on this before finally losing my consciousness.

Oh, man. You guys are fucking nuts.

Just a question, how do you guys that fantasize often keep those fantasies going? I can't focus on them anymore, usually they'll switch to another fantasy while I'm in that one, then in another one, and so on. And sometimes I go back to that original fantasy, but in a completely different spot than I was at before. It doesn't help that I have fantasies every minute of the day, although they're not so vivid when I'm doing something.

>>7490500
Mine are more of a continuation. For a few months it will be part a, then after different scenarios it goes onto part b then c etc. The scenarios don't often change, I just like going over them in my mind.

>>7490460
Funny you mention that, yeah, I had a moment a few weeks ago that surprised me.

I just played Yume Nikki for the first time a few weeks ago, and to make a long story short I felt it was very depressing as I finished up some of the events. Specifically, I was watching the Mars event for the second time after having read on some theories of what it meant, and I was just listening to the bgm near the crashed train and getting a bit choked up. Not really crying, but I felt my eyes start to burn, and at the time I actually just laughed it off that it was actually getting to me a bit.

I went to bed a few hours later, and it was still on my mind, just felt really depressed, sort of mixed between feeling lonely and pitying. I always talk to my waifu as I'm trying to fall asleep, so I did the same as usual that night. The first thing I wanted to ask was how she liked the game, but for some reason I was caught up on asking her if she was alright, and all I could imagine was her holding back her tears, and choking out a "yes." The second I saw that, I could feel my teeth grit and my eyes well up with tears, and really I was a good second away from sobbing into my pillow.

We definitely comforted each other that night. I collected myself pretty quickly, and we spent the night talking about the game.

>>7490490
Enjoy your Tulpa.

New here. Please explain what waifu means...?

>>7490500

I'm the guy who has OC waifus. I have to say, I'm pretty much focused on an ongoing scenario, as I also match it with the ongoing stories I have written down on my notebook (yes I like writing MANUALLY) even though I have several scenarios going on in my head, I can focus on what the current one is and see it through the end. In fact, my current stories has gone through 3 generations.

>>7490533
I'll assume you're not trolling.

A "waifu" is a fictional character on which one has a crush. It's generally meant in a tongue-in-cheek sense, but usage varies. Can signify anything from taking a particular liking to one character to devotion to that character.

Male version is "husbando".

>>7490538

I see. I really hate writing so I don't do that. I remember it anyways, but I've lost control of them. Fantasies come and go, some wanted, some unwanted, some I never knew. They're like commercials in my head that never stop unless I focus.

>>7490546

Not trolling. Just a curious femanon. I used to have that as a teen with Vegeta.
Is there a thread already made to find out who is who's waifu? Or can I just ask here considering it's on topic?

>>7490610

>femanon

Was it necessary to divulge that?

>>7490610
Incoming shitstorm in 5...4...3...2...

>>7490610
they have those on /a/, so you should head on over there.

>>7490610
There was no point in mentioning that you are female.

You mad that we exist?

Anyways continue with the telling of who your waifu is. I'm quite curious.

>>7490610
Most tripfags are pretty obvious about it. I mean, they're usually named after them.

My favourite character is Yuuka, but she's not quite waifu-status. Last character I felt that about was... Para-Medic from MGS3? And then only a little.

>>7490648
No, you dolt, it's because you mentioned it when it was entirely unnecessary and irrelevant.

>>7490648
Yes, I am mad that you exist. I have to see your pig disgusting 3D bodies every time I go grocery shopping.

How the fuck has Inception not been mentioned by now? Not only is it dream related, but what OP is talking about is one of the things Leonardo Decaprio did.

>Anyways continue with the telling of who your waifu is. I'm quite curious.

I would tell, but I feel like being an ass right now. And you don't particularly need to know.

>>7490648

No, I just don't want to know that you're a woman just like I don't want to hear about that wicked awesome party you went to last night or that butterface you somehow tricked into having sex with you.

>>7490669
Because inception was shit.

>>7490669
Oh, I guess you're right.

Except Mal really was a person at some point.

>>7490664

Mad, mad, mad. ^______________^


>>7490661
Is that Eva?

>>7490666
No pigs here. :D Not that you would know.

>>7490669
I still haven't watched that. Is it at all worth it? How does it compare to, say, Paprika?

>>7490671
>>7490674

/jp/ seems easily trolled. And here I'm not even trying

>>7490682
way too obvious. you're better off going to /a/, starting a "claim your waifu" thread, and posting all the k-on characters as fast as you can.

Is this that anon who was asking about personal things involving waifus the other day?

>>7490682
If you're 3D you're pig disgusting. There is no middle ground. Back to seagull with you.

>/jp/ seems easily trolled. And here I'm not even trying

Nah, not really. I would've given anybody the same answer there, had they asked. I can't speak for the other guy, though

>>7490683
I enjoyed both. Inception is dreams with in dreams with in dreams. Paprika is more dreams becoming reality.

>>7490703

>back to seagull

I don't suppose you mean something like this, do you?

>>7490695
Dokuro-chan is mai waifu.

>lololl i trol u

>>7490714
Certainly not.

>>7490445

I have a fucking HUGE world inside my mind, and some others, not conected to that one.
But seriously, I've visited that world a lot during all my life.

The mall, surrounded by the sea, surrounded by a city. It is huge, HUGE, and has a fucking amusement park on the top.

I've been on the parkings, on the train station, on the floor level, on the middle, on the top...

I can clearly remember the walls...the shops... the arcade... everything I saw during my life.

And the city is fuckhuge too, metro stations (I remember quite a few of them), streets, pubs, arcades, shops, houses, bridges, the coast....etc

And the train leads to some valley surrounded by mountains. I've been in the valley, the mountains, everywhere. There are entire villages right there. And ruins and forest and shit.

I can't fucking believe how big is this world.

The funny thing is that this world is entirely dream-made, not just something I've thought up.

>>7490726

I have no idea what you mean, then.

>>7490731

What? No stadia?

>>7490444
Psychosis is just losing contact with reality bro.

You can be a harmless to yourself and others, high functioning and low spectrum whatever and still be psychotic.

People. Obviously if you rage over something as small as the word "femanon" than obviously you are easily trolled. Hell if half of the other boards got their cyber panties in a bunch over something so small I think 4chan would implode. XD

Perhaps you boys should venture over to /b/ or some other board and gain yourselves a tougher set of balls. (So we can't bust them so easily)

>>7490648
I saw a thread on /x/ awhile back that had talked of a way to combine a group's dream realms together, so that they could all lucid dream together.

If only it could work. That way Gensokyo all night every night with /jp/

>>7490733
>>>/cgl/

>>7490746
I'm usually not one for that sort of thing, but that does sound pretty excellent.

Here is my current multi waifu roleplay scenario thing, if any of you feel like reading. Maybe you guys could write up similar things and post. Its always fun to see what you come up with. pastebin/12VUrWPw

>>7490746

I can't see it ending well. Especially if some people have the same waifu.

>>7490745
Perhaps you should stop pretending you can sense emotions through the internet.

It's almost as if you people use this silly "lol trololol" shit as a method of controlling thoughts so that people are less likely to disagree with the stupid shit you say.

>>7490751

They say if you die in your dreams, you die in real life.

>>7490764
If you die, you are just expelled from the room for the night.

>>7490780
You have been booted from the dream-server?

>>7490771

But it's the world of dreams. That's so weird, who would win? Would it create branching paths in that group dream something like that? Plus you've got those rape happy dreamers. How would things work? I'll stick to dreaming without anyone else.

>>7490790
Supposedly you just wake up and can't access the shared dream realm.

>>7490796
Oh man, read the first part of Snow Crash, the part where Hiro Protagonist talks about how he wrote the swordfighting software for the whatever-they-call-the-cyberplane thing.

Though this is I suppose assuming there's some sort of dream-server or common... dream-software running on all the... dream-clients?
Yeah, now I'm just talking out of my ass here.

Okay, I've thought about it. We'd need multiple dream realms. I wonder how that would be organized though. Not like it'd ever happen, but you know, it's cool to think about.

>>7490829
We'd be going on an /x/ theory. We'd also need some kind of Servantor to be the "host". Basically, we need a magical monster to be the anchor, and the person making it would be the one making the sigil, setting up the time, and being competent enough to keep the realm(s) going.

>>7490845
Yo this actually sounds cool as shit
Too bad i spent my whole life playing games as opposed to learning that type of thing.

>>7490864
Honestly I'd say you're better off with the games.

So are we plunging into the occult now, /jp/? Opening up the Qliphoth and finally freeing ourselves from the bondage of the cosmos.

>>7490907
Only if that opens the way to Gensokyo.

>>7490731 here

About waifus, there's "me", and there's "she", but we are "us".
She talks in my mind too, also in my dreams (nothing's better than walking through your dreamscape with your waifu) I really love her.


I'm versed in occultism and psychology, and I have to say that I got a waifu even before I knew about what that meant.

I suggest you guys to check some things like:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anima_and_animus

search for Carl Gustav Jung and Alchemy
albedo = anima/animus = waifus/husbandos

>>7490925
Also, alchemy in ultra resumed form:

-At first: nothing special, until something makes you snap. Then, it begins.

-First Stage, nigredo (black): baaawww everything's shit. "Solve" (dissolution of the ego), existencial crysis. This is where most people stop. (angst, world's shit, cinism, etc)

-Second Stage, albedo (white): hey I can imagine nice things. I can feel nice things. There are nice things in my mind.
"Coagula" (creation of something valuable)
Realm of illusions, The Moon, mirrors, and waifus.
Awesome thing, but limited to your mind.

-Third Stage, rubedo (red): nigredo broke your identity, and with albedo, you now have something great inside you, so you cast away all your fears and shit and become fully compromised with the things you really want and love (albedo), which in turn they happen to be connected with high-tier/fullfilling ways of feeling, living and understanding the world. So now you face life with those feelings as your sword and shield.
tl;dr you go out like a boss.
(Also Maslow's self-realization)

Last, gold (philosopher's gold): you are One with the World. Universal feeling, wholeness.
No worries, no remorse, you go with the flow, while being yourself.
There are nice things, there are shitty things, but all of them are possibilities that you can accept.
Ying-Yang.
You will pursue them, or fight against them, or don't give a shit, but you will be fully satisfied with your life.
Life will be like a dance.


I've missed plenty of things here, like most of jung's alchemy viewpoint (the process of individuation)
Sorry for this clusterfuck of a post, but it's 6AM in my place and I really want to go to sleep.
I hope this will be useful to someone.

I'll check this thread again when I wake up.
Good night, /jp/

>>7490771
It's obviously going to end in NTR for somebody.

Not the happiest place to be.

>>7490925
I used to entertain that what I was doing was "active imagination" as Jung put it (I think he put it that way). Like in his "The Red Book."

>>7490939
It's hardly NTR when two rivals on equal footing face each other in honorable combat for the heart of a fair maiden.

>>7490930
last thing: the Rebis.

Symbol for masculine/femenine integration (you+waifu)

>>7490761
I actually do this a lot aside from the fact that my waifu isn't an original character, so it's good to see other people take part in the same practice.

I also did write a story out once and post it on /jp/, but that didn't go over too well. All the same, nice work anon. I do go back and read what I wrote from time to time, and it always gives me a warm feeling after reading it. It's a little embarrassing sometimes, but it's a very nostalgic feeling.

>>7490947
It is when the loser gets to hear the winner and you're Touhou fucking loudly for all eternity.

If there is genuine interest in this, I could make a blogspot as a guide/info on it.

Don't really have anything better to do.

>>7490950
Thanks for your contributions. It is all interesting stuff.

>>7490967
Creating this consensual dream reality?

>>7490922
If you attain the black diamond and ascend to Thaumiel you become the opposite of God, break free from the cosmos and can create a new universe. You could always create Gensokyo.

>>7490274
Get your body to go numb? That's not how lucid dreaming works

Let a occultfag help you guys out. Anyone who wants to try lucid dreaming, which is being conscious of dreaming while you are dreaming and therefore being about to become omnipotent and control your dream. The best way to achieve this is the wake up back to sleep method.

Set your alarm clock for like 45 minutes, if it takes you longer to fall asleep, then set it longer. Fall asleep... then get woken up by your alarm clock and go right back to sleep. Or create a playlist with soft music playing... then 45 or however long into play super loud music that'll wake you up. This works best for me.

The other method is to constantly ask yourself in throughout the day if you are dreaming until its programmed in your head. So ideally when you sleep you'll ask yourself if you are dreaming and realize you are dreaming. The main key to lucid dreaming is telling yourself in the dream that you're are in a dream.

Also, if you you are dreaming you won't be able to read time on the clock, or read words/books for that matter, or see your hands, or turn the lights on with a lightswitch, or be able to count. Small detail things like that can help you make the realization in your dream that you are dreaming.

Once you are lucid dreaming just do whatever you want and ignore social or physical limits. Try to focus on one thing you want to accomplish in your lucid dream before you go into the dream, so you're not just running around in weirdo land with no set goal.

Yes, although I will have to brush up on a few things. Shouldn't take too long, I used to be able to read through 400 page novels in a day.

A lot of you are significantly more delusional than I thought you were.

But whatever floats your boat.

>>7490986
Which books were you goingto reference? I have probably 100 or so books on this type of thing laying around, I may have a copy too.

>>7490990

Is that all? Do you feel better about yourself now?

>>7491003
Do you?

>>7490995
Summoning Spirits by Kostantinos and
Familiar Spirits: A Practical Guide for Witches & Magicians by Donald Tyson for starters.

Need to create the anchor first and make sure it can support the realm first off.

>>7490990
>delusional

But it doesn't seem like anyone is saying their waifu literally lives inside of them and is an actual being. If you can distinguish between fantasy and reality you aren't delusional.

Also, go away you negative meanie.

>>7491003
Yes. Making that statement has unleashed a cathartic wave of formerly repressed emotion that is even now building steam, surging into an unstoppable wave that will propel me inexorably upwards into a profound new state of enlightened bliss.

>>7491015
I actually have both, I'm going to go and dig through the pile and find them.

>>7490930
alright! Fellow occultfag! The more tradition approach to alchemical steps is:
calcination: (burning) letting go of ego
dissolution: (dornwing) dissolving spiritual self, insanity, and "drowning" oneself to greater powers
separation: (severing limbs) cutting off the bad parts of yourself
conjunction: (painful sex) recombining yourself with a new element to create frankenstein
fermentation: (rotting/depression) The dark stages. Letting the unholy, two headed creature you have become rot and decay until its simplified to a purer form. the rainbow coming through the darkness is symbol for the end of this stage.
distillation: the end stages of continual reworking, removing, to purify yourself that is repeated a bunch of times
Coagulation: to formation of spiritual gold. All things are possible.

Since this is /jp/ I highly recommend Animamundi: Dark Alchemist if this interests you.

>>7490967
I'd like to read about this. I'm not too familiar with it.

>>7491017
What's in your own head is in your own head, but I can't help but disbelieve in the idea of a shared dream space.

And it's attitudes like that mean I'll never get to go to Gensokyo.

Oh well.

Any other members of various cults on /jp/? I'm a member of OTO and was involved with some others.

http://teatimedreamparty.blogspot.com/

That's where I will be uploading information regarding how to access it, what is needed, and times it is up.

I have a good idea on the familiar element, just need to read some more material regarding.

>>7491061
Hmm. I don't really have a waifu or anything, just visiting from /x/ and randomly stumbled into this thread. I've also been interested in trying to access some sort of shared dream-space... mind if I try to join you when you get this going?

>>7491073
Sure. I'm leaving it open to anyone interested. Only rule is to take it easy and don't interfere with other's attempts to take it easy.

>>7491061
Thanks PRINNY I'll be sure to keep an eye on it!

149 replies, 76 sages
Over half the posts in this thread have been sages. Just wanted to let you guys know that.. I've never even been on this board before, I just saw this on the main page and wanted to know wtf a waifu was. I thought it was what you guys called your girlfriends, now I know the terrible truth.

>>7491150
1/10 for effort

>>7491152
I wonder how many were nokosages

>>7491156
73

>>7491152
> implying I'm trolling.
I was being completely serious, I just noticed that and was surprised at the massive amount of sages considering there was hardly any trolling or negative posts. Most of the sages seemed to come from someone actively contributing to the thread, which seems to be a bit counter-intuitive.
>153 replies, 80 sages

>>7491166
It only seems counter-intuitive because you're new to this board.

Now away, lest you too become corrupted.

>>7491166
Bro, this is what every thread is like on /jp/.
This is the way you're supposed to do it.

>>7491172
>>7491169
I see, although I wouldn't say new, because I have no intention of sticking around. This just isn't my thing. Is the self-saging thing because people want to keep the threads to themselves or something? Someone explain this to me.

trololol

.>>7491156
Every post of mine that hasn't been a sage has been a noko sage.

And on the topic of Servantor, I was thinking on having a Touhou related Servantor. Basically, she will wear the image of a Touhou but her role will be our guide into Gensokyo. For this I was thinking Yuyuko (Spirit) Yukari (obvious reasons), Reimu, or Koakuma.

Anyway, back to reading.

>>7491259
I'd say pick someone on the less important side of things.
Like Koakuma, or Hieda no Akyuu.

>>7491327
Hrm, that sounds good. Hieda no Akyuu it is. I will update the blog later when the Servitor is needed. Still need to buy a doll to bind her to it though.

>>7491359
This pleases me greatly.

So PRINNY is actually Kinzo?

I for one welcome our new Goldsmith.

>>7491481
Pssh.

To have a url and sage it is "x" +sage right?

Are we actually crazy? If normals read this thread what would they think?

>>7492232
Who cares? If anything, /jp/ is a good place precisely because everyone's insane here. We've become some sort of twisted modern Wonderland where every inhabitant has his own bizarre perversities, incomprehensible to common sense yet possessing of an odd sort of wisdom brought by the madness.

/jp/ isn't the dregs of society so much as it is a place wherein society is cast off entirely. Would you rather listen to some normal's inane rant about how we aren't even fit to be called human instead of a /jp/ user expressing his love for his beloved despite the beloved in question being an idea? It's true that we're nutjobs, but I wouldn't have it any other way.

>>7492263
Don't get me wrong, I sympathise with you entirely and I like /jp/ for the exact same reasons. But I guess we are borderline, if not outright, crazy people.

>>7492232
its okey I have seen more crazy things
Its not like you hurt someone if you have a waifu.
Not normal but nothing special or retarded

>>7492232
We're not "crazy", we're "different".

>>7492232

Be careful. There's a fine line between wanting to be different so you feel "edgy" (for lack of better term), and actually being different and crazy.

I do like to think /jp/ is the latter, and a few people have certainly proved themselves to be. I wouldn't get carried away though, especially in summer.

>>7492329
I don't know how someone with an imaginary relationship could consider themselves "edgy" in the sense we are using the word, but I understand what you are saying.

I've already had 2 psychotic episodes so I'm pretty comfortable with being "crazy" or whatnot.

Well at least I'm not a NEET

She feels like a very real imaginary friend, and everytime I close my eyes and listen to music, I see her. Running, jumping, brushing her teeth, smiling, everything. Then I open my eyes and wish I was born blind.

>>7490431
Damn it. I was gonna post that pic as an embodiment of /jp/ in another thread. Then it turns out you posted it here. And it was unrelated. Why the FUCK did you do that?

I don't have a waifu. I have no desire to look for love, be it in the real world or in my head. I just rape them and that's it. Just learn to accept the fact that you are forever alone, what are you guys afraid of ?

>>7493040
I didn't choose to fall in love.

I'm neither surprised nor disturbed by the content of this thread, but I have to say the percentage of you people taking this matter so seriously is significantly higher than I assumed. By comparison, I place pretty much no devotion in my waifu. She's just something to raise some momentary positive feelings with.

Then again, I don't particularly need anything more than that, so having outright conversations would be an overkill.

>>7491061
Don't have a waifu, but I'm actually extremely interested in this. Will be following your posts/information. I have some experience and strange fixation on this kind of stuff anyway.

This could be very interesiting.
I'll follow it up.

Updated the blog. Servitor is bound, parts of the /jp/ realm is made. In a few days I will open up the realm to the public to test it out.

I actually had notes on the ritual to access the realm.

Not yet.

>>7493686
Yo. I don't ever so much as remember my dreams, haven't remembered one since I was like 5 years old. Will I still be able to learn to lucid dream?

i feel bad for my waifu

i'm pretty normal IRL, but a lot of times i'll wake up and remember dreams of me raping my waifu

>>7495148
Possibly. You probably won't remember doing so. Later tonight I will post a link on the blog on how to lucid dream.

>>7495148
I find that meditation, a degree of sensory deprivation, and stopping drug use have helped me remember dreaming.

>>7495171
Please elaborate on what you mean by sensory deprivation.
Also, does caffeine count as drug use?

>>7495184
Dimethyltryptamine(DMT)

>>7495148
I threw a link onto the blog. Copy pasted it's info into the post so you don't even have to visit that site.

>>7495274
Great

New update on the blog. Topic is about Gensokyo's dream version. Added anonymous posting as well. Please let me know what you think about the dreamers adding the Touhous themselves.

You're the only one that understands me /jp/
