>when /a/ was gone >watched like 50 episodes of anime and started to clean up my backlog >/a/ comes back >haven’t watched anime in 3 whole days
>>44518 What kind of anime did you watch?
>>44525 I binge watched Planetes, Akudama Drive and rewatched Plastic Memories
>>44545 The only one out of these three that I watched was Plastic Memories. I only watched three episodes or so from it and that was many years ago.
>>44558 It’s a sad melodrama that is worth finishing
>>44563 I also have to finish Beatless. There were a few episodes left for the end of season 1. I can't remember if I went on a hiatus at episode 19 or a few episodes before or after. There are also the five or so episodes of season 2. The last episode that was episode 19 or so I watched back in 2019 or 2021.
I deleted my 20 year old Steam account. Feels good man.
>>44669 why?
>>44518 >>/a/ comes back But it hasnt!
>>44590 I never heard of that show before
>>44675 Losing 4chan helped me get appreciate the importance of change. 4chan is gone, but 8chan is here. I deleted my ancient Steam account, but now I have renewed focus on my bigger goals.
>>44695 such as?
>>44701 I've had this story in my back pocket for a long time, and some novel characters to go along with it. Just gonna move them from concept art to panels now and give them the life they deserve.

>>44687 It is a show about Robutts. It is philosophical about the increasing dependence of humans on technology especially AI. The male mc is a naive retard. The blue haired femc robot gaslights the protagonist into fulfilling her plans. I got spoilered that she becomes something like the AI overlord of their society but in a benficial way and gives the male mc a copy of herself that is connected to her as a wife in the end. The red haired robutt is also hot. She decided to help an anti-ai, anti-robot young high school student terrorist and that this is her purpose.
>>44786 That interesting I’ll have to check it out thanks anon
>>44922 The show is unpopular. Many think it is too boring. I will try to finish it but it's some years ago I watched the last episode. I think I'll begin watching it again from the beginning

>>44518 >shitposting about anime/manga >actually watching/reading and enjoying anime/manga Pick one
>>44518 were you watching at x1.5 or x1.25 speed? I got some progress done on 1.25 but it doesn't feel like enough.

Yotsuba isn't coming back. She's been defiled too many times.
>>44518 It's actually hurt me in that regard, I've had issues keeping up with what I watch each season for years but my new tablet had me doing a little better this season, then the Sharty came and ruined half the motivation and reminder to keep up

>>44518 You already figured out what is the problem you just need to fight the problem now
>>44518 I just started watching Apocalypse Hotel and its the first time I have watched a seasonal show in years. So far its cute and I like it. Just the right amount of melancholy
>>44558 Dude, Planetes is an alltime classic. It has that old school truckers in space vibe from 90s scifi
>>52841 >its the first time I have watched a seasonal show in years I feel the same way. Usually would follow the shitposting and binge the whole thing later,but with all the altchans being slower it let's me enjoy episode to episode, without feeling like i've missed the discussion.

>>52898 I don't like the fact that normalfags who hate anime liked it so much. They always use it as an example of what anime should always be.
I have the opposite problem I can't motivate myself to watch anything that isn't currently airing but I'm so adhd I couldn't even keep up with the few things I was interested in now I feel like I've missed out and it's really upsetting
>>52951 You could same the exact same thing about any show that grabs the normalfag zeitgeist.
(532.37 KB 2336x3524 GoxDyLiWMAAfGdZ.jpg)

>>44518 Read manga
>boo hoo I'm no longer interested in a leisure hobby that I don't pay anything for then get a new hobby, like wtf
>>52951 Fair, I hate most things like that out of principle. 90% of normalfag anime recommendations don't look like anime.
After walking away from anime for a few years and focusing more on vidya, I ended up returning to it because there's nothing left to play, the video game industry is in the shitter and all the old good stuff is too familiar. So I've been binging anime like crazy recently. Just finished the entirety of Gundam's U.C. timeline, now planning on watching Uma Musume (because Cinderella Gray is great, so I want more horse girls) and the first season of Lupin the 3rd (wanted to get into that franchise for a while). I think I rekindled my love for anime, it's great.

>>44518 i'm averaging 2 episodes a day instead of 1 episode a week now, the fire has been rekindled

>>44518 I managed to sit down and watch all of NGE + EoE. But I am still not motivated to watch anime even though /a/ is down. Any advice on to get my motivation up?
>>55423 >But I am still not motivated to watch anime even though /a/ is down. Any advice on to get my motivation up? Watch less shitty anime?
I didn't even know /a/ was back Will continue to use both boards for a while now and see what's better. I assume that detailed discussions and broad topics will be better here, discussion of news and first reaction posting for the weekly episodes will work better on 4chan. Two places, two functions
