Wandering Witch Elaina Anonymous 04/18/2025 (Fri) 03:55:55 No. 17640 [Reply] [Last]

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.

To think of it, isn't it weird how basically all anime ecelebs in the 10s launched their careers shitting on SAO? Only to either never mention it again or constantly shit on anything from the 20s by praising SAO instead, and either way they never actually talk about SAO itself. Zero integrity whatsoever.

>>73562 Nigger, old good new bad has been a concept for longer than you have been alive. I have even seen historical quotes both doing it unironically and complaining about people that do it as far back as the fucking greeks. The consensus simply shifted to the new generation and now SAO is fucking old. It's not that complicated.
