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?

>>73890 Actually, isn't it weird ecelebs no longer give details like that anymore? In the past they were effectively video bloggers (hence "vlogger") and fairly personal in terms of what they showed to the camera. These days they can tell sob stories but still feel sterile and curated for the "global audience". They don't even feel like real people anymore.
>>73895 How the fuck would I know? I can't name a single eceleb. Anyways it probably goes like this: >eceleb says he likes Kishirika but in a non-lolicon way >immediately gets cancelled for being a lolicon >changes name and becomes a vtuber (female oneesan model (D cup)) streaming with voice changer >never exposes any personal information ever again Fuck cancel culture. Fuck terminally online brainlets assuming shit and starting baseless accusations.

What exactly causes this? It's not a matter of adaptations either, it happens with manga original stuff too.

Anime/Manga that need a video game Anonymous 04/26/2025 (Sat) 21:43:21 Id: cb62ff No. 60451 [Reply]
>Open World turn-based RPG or a Zelda/Darksiders-like for Dai Dark >Neo Ranga game where you manage your God/Cult while also having Kaiju fights with Bulk Slash gameplay >3D adventure game of NINKU where you have a hubworld but its main focus is mission-based stealth action >Idol Manager/Rhythm game for Kodomo No Omocha >Immersive Dungeon Crawler like Ultima Underworld where you can interact with the world in many ways but more food/cooking focused for Dungeon Meshi Post your ideas or discuss vidya based on anime/manga that you like

>>60451 Rising of the Shield Hero desperately needs a video game like it, but the problem is that its mechanics are too advanced/complex for modern game development, its something I hope to see in the future. For one thing, everything in that world looked very cool, the sheer level of interactivity with the character's weapons was amazing. (e.g. the fact that the MC could put almost anything into his shield and end up transforming it from a storage unit, to pure utility, to damage, to defense, to buffs, etc.), on top of just more broken mechanics, and the fact that the gameplay and character mechanics can change based on your knowledge, perceptions, personality, emotions and reactions to the world around you, as well as the role you take in the world. Plus its got a good story and premise and whatnot baked in with the whole "spawn into a (part of the) world that reviles you and forces you to approach the world differently to everyone else". And the anime adaptation makes the "UI" for the world look really satisfying and engaging to handle, plus I like the general design aesthetics of it too. This is a topic I've been wanting to make on /v/ for a while but I've always ended up forgetting before I ended up making an OP for it, but this is one of those rare works where I'm downright hungering for a game that could fulfill the work's ambitions. Unfortunately if anyone ever does make a game for it, it'll probably end up being low-effort garbage like the "VNs" that companies churn out for a lot of the popular isekai, even though a franchise like this deserves a high-budget, effort-filled game to do it justice. I think it would be genuinely fantastic if a proper company with the will, talent, vision and money would ever take on a project like this. People love to say shit like "SAO" but honestly Shield Hero looks more to me like a "game from the future" than anything I've seen in an anime so far. It would be like a sandbox RPG in terms of character freedom to interact with the world and characters, but with a genuine plot and tension built in thanks to the waves, along with worldbuilding and characters that actually matter so you aren't just jerking around the whole time without consequences like some faggot. Keep in mind I haven't watched or read past season 1 of Shield Hero so far, I'm planning to get around to it but from what I've seen of it, I think it would make for a great game. The only game closest to this in terms of breadth of interactivity in an RPG setting I can think of is Runescape, but it still wouldn't come close to a lot of the other things about this hypothetical game.

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.

>>73837 >I can barely read the history/non-fiction books that I have on my shelf. But why? It takes less effort than reading manga or watching anime.
>>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.
