Bocchi the Rock! Anonymous 12/17/2022 (Sat) 19:39:50 No. 1615 [Reply]

Anyone been watching this anime? It's actually kinda enjoyable. Basically the story is about an introvert who picks up the guitar after being upset that she never made friends in middle school and is dragged into a high school band by pure chance. Honestly, I think the anime has a lot of charm and I'm looking forward to seeing if a season 2 will ever be made or if I'll start the manga next week ater the final episode airs. What do you think about Bocchi the Rock anons? cute band story? shitty K-On rip off? You decide!

>>2439 >Anyone even remembers Attack on Titan No, you’re right everyone forgot about it. It may have been one of the best selling manga and watched anime of all time but once its over nobody cares. >cultural significance the themesong has been memed to hell, it has memorable quotes. If youre talking explicitly about just references in manga/anime im sure theres some but Id argue references dont tell much of how impactful the work is. For instance, Hunter x Hunter is very popular but people only reference the extreme hair. Id say the actual impact of a work is how it affects the medium, the genre, or something big like how JoJo and many other works are inspired by Fist of the North Star or how a shit ton of harem manga use the same kind of formula Love Hina did years ago.

What do you guys think about influence that anime has had on the hip hop industry, artist like Kanye have been known to drop subtle references to anime like Akira and every other soundcloud rapper has some variation of dbz bars. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3inwchcRs24

Anonymous 02/01/2023 (Wed) 20:17:29 No. 2424

It probably hasn't had much influence yet honestly, minus niggers who like dragon ball (who I think are not really overlapping much with the rest of the hip hop crowd as much), but that's not really much "influence" I think, more just overlapping interest, though I'll admit I haven't heard things like "DBZ bars" being dropped in any hip hop shit, but I haven't listened to most hip hop shit since the mid 00s. Kanye seems like a potentially cool exception. I will say that'll probably change as anime has been going increasingly mainstream for the past 5-7 years and now its pretty fucking popular. >that YT link didn't expect this lol,

Probably Dragon Ball Z, Pokemon, Yugioh, whatever was on 4kidz. The first time I got really into it was Naruto on Toonami. After a few years of that, I came back to anime after a friend and I watched SAO, AoT, and Date a alive which got me back on anime in highschool. I also ended up watching Nisekoi with said friend and bet Kirisaki would win while he bet Onodera would. After we graduated, it turns out I won

Anonymous 01/28/2023 (Sat) 13:31:10 No. 2338

I believe the first anime I ever watched in full (Toonami introduced anime to me technically but I never watched a show aired on there to completion) was Panty & Stocking w/ Garterbelt. It was nice for a first-timer, and I watched it with full subs, not the dubbed version. As for my first hentai, I can't remember the name but it was probably in 2005 or so when hentai sites were sparse, and I don't think I even fapped to it, I just watched it. It was some girl in a steamy bath and she had vanilla sex with some guy. There was another one I watched right after that which was more rape-themed and some monster looking motherfucker ate a girl's clitoris, like literally bit it off. I thought that was something you're supposed to do during sex as well until I found out the truth later. Doesn't really count, but this is the first doujin I ever saved, though that was long after my first hentai experience.

Unless Yoko Taro is planning to rerelease the game with new content this will never happen, so I have no idea what you even mean here. >My point is that the anime is unnecessary. Given that it's giving new content to the story, including original stories as well as fleshing out side characters, your statement is already false. If it was a simple 1:1 adaptation I'd agree with you. It's not. So really your only point at this stage is: "the game looks better." Okay? Who gives a shit, as long as it's doing something new. I'm not some zoomer graphicsfag, if the content is interesting I'll show up for it. Episode 2 interested me. Episode 3 at least had some things that different as well.

Acquire Reinhard and Felt 9. Use my economic superiority to acquire Anastasia by convincing her to drop and join me 10. Make a team of Julius, Reinhard, Ram, Rem and Crusch BUT NOT EMILIA to conquer Flügel's Tower and acquire Shawler 11. Incarnate Louise in the green room, then rape her and make her my trophy wife while killing Gluttony as painfully and slowly as possible, just for fun 12. Use their combined resources to conquer Vollachia, proving my might to Priscilla and making her KISS MY FEET 13. Use the time in Vollachia to acquire Medium 14. Abolish the priestess contract and become the Harem King Supreme Emperor of Mankind 15. Marry Rem, Crusch, Ram, Shaula, Felt, Anastasia, Priscilla, Echidna, Frederica, Emilia, Capella, and tie Meili and Elsa to my rape dungeon. 16. Further my royal line through Rem's bloodline.

Yoyo, saw this movie in theaters about two days ago or so, and I wanted to gather the opinions of anons who also saw this movie. I personally like how professional the characters were even with all the crazy shit happening around them. They didn't get overly dramatic or anything you'd see in an American movie. Basically they would just say "oh that happened, what now?" which is the level of professionalism expected in real life scenarios. Basically I thought the movie was really well done and well written. That said you have to know what to expect, this isn't a movie about explosions and high octane action. It's a movie very much reliant on its story, characters and general world building, basically this is a movie that was written with a more grounded tone rather than something like Fast and the Furious. Honestly in that regard. I find it to be a breath of fresh air since it's not having the characters be overly dramatic or over the top, and the action is actually not a mess of explosions which is another thing I liked about the movie. Please give Shin Ultraman a watch when you can. I'm not sure when it'll be released digitally, but it's very much worth watching. At least in my opinion.

It does has fanservice for old fans but it does not rely solely on this, is basicaly takes fictional characters and put them on real life scenarios. If you can watch also Shin Godzilla.
