Do you watch seasonal anime as it comes out? Do you wait until the season is over to binge? Do you not follow seasonalshit at all? And perhaps most importantly regardless of your previous answer, do you then go read the source material if you liked it?

Basically, this is a thread to discuss this rise of and currently ongoing online manga and anime series that have been popping up over the past several years. To post about some of the ones I have seen, there are: >Milky☆Galactic (Anime) https://milkygalacticuniverse.com/ >Noss & Zakuro (Manga) https://twiiit.com/rariatoo >Tireddog Animation (Anime) https://redirect.invidious.io/channel/UCl2lw5qRbqOGpldCAK3jZEw Let's try to keep this thread "Indie" for all intent and purposes. While some series like Future Card Buddy Fight, Ninjala, Rebirth, and Zoids Wild Senki were designed for online release, it feels like they "shouldn't count" due to them being made by professional studios.

Stumble upon another web-anime entitled "Volicia of Pluto". It's a yuri /m/ series self-created by some guy named "AsH". Apparently it is a sequel to his previous two "Vapor Trail" ONA projects. And all which you can find on his JewTube channel: https://redirect.invidious.io/channel/UCs4kqjNNCPc_4NFLLUc_5WA Episode 2 was available for a limited time back in June, but the video has since been privated. Because apparently it was also given a theatrical release, and the free period was used to promote a crowdfunding campaign for the upcoming third and "final" episode. You can instead find it available over on Nyaa: https://nyaa.si/view/2026642

Who is that beautiful girl wearing a brooch and a big hat that signals her status as a cute witch, whose ashen hair flutters in the wind, shining so much with the beauty and talent that even the sun's eyes squint involuntarily? Who's that beauty blooming as beautifully as the most colorful flowers? Who's that witch flying through the sky, so beautiful that if someone were there, they would definitely look back and sigh? That's right. It's her.

Why do people refuse to read the source material of a series? Anonymous 10/01/2025 (Wed) 10:58:00 Id: c92a78 No. 73472 [Reply]

This insistence seems eternal (has been a problem since at least the early 00s) and only keeps getting worse as time passes. It doesn't matter if someone loved a specific series to death and literally cannot wait for a season 2 (that may never come), they will not read the source material. If the source is a LN, at most they will read the manga adaptation, catch up to the TLd manga chapters and completely forget the series ever existed afterwards. Somehow shit like MT are extremely rare exceptions that confirm the rule and even then the amount of people that actually read the novels are a drop in the bucket in the fandom of said series. >But anon, you are forgetting shounenfags! And that's where you're fucking wrong, shounenfags don't read manga, they follow twitter leaks and then get a summary of the chapter from their eceleb of choice.

>>73843 >It takes less effort than reading manga or watching anime. I think I didn't make it clear, it's not just about the effort, I meant by barely being able to read the other books is how I don't regularly have time allocated to them, so whenever I do I just read those and don't even think about branching out like getting into LNs etc. As to why read those over mange etc in the first place, let's just say books that have educational value take priority over entertainment for me.

>>73472 Here's the thing, if you watch anime then watching with subs instead of dubs is not that big of an effort change if you aren't a low IQ fag. Yes it may have a dogshit translation, but you can probably just find it enjoyable anyway. However, reading the source material means to some degree you care about experiencing the original as the author intended, and you can't do that with a translation due to how dogshit they all are, so that means you gotta learn japanese. That's a barrier basically nobody in the west is willing to do when they just want to turn off their brain to some fight scenes and call it a day.

What is wrong with westoids and why do they keep pushing anti-intellectualism and their refusal to read? Have any of you ever noticed how westoids tend to write off Japanese lit as nothing but trashy fan fiction? It's almost like they think just reading a summary or watching a YouTube video is good enough to understand the whole story, without even bothering to crack open an actual book. I mean, can you imagine someone doing the same thing with Western classics? Yeah, they do that too. It's getting worse over time too. Around the early 2000s people were desperate to scramble to learn japanese because the fan translations for stuff like shana or DaL were too slow. Around the 2010s while the normalfag flood had begun, you still got people willing to learn japanese to read the raws. Now after covid you're hard pressed anyone that reads the source material, hell you are hard pressed to find people that actually watch anime at x1 playback speed and not through tiktok videos and manga leak threads. What the fuck went so wrong with the anime community normalfags?

>>73802 It's even worse/better than you think actually, the few pigs that manage to pretend to care about reading tend to do so through the official abridged parodies larping as translations and get a completely different story as a result. You would be shocked (or maybe not much) on how different even "properly translated" stuff is in the official westoidese.
