If you're into little homophobic/transphobic/sexist echo chambers, sure? My tolerance for that is pretty low at my age.

There's literally no difference between now and a year ago for the vast majority of the boards, only boards like /v/ and /b/ were really affected, which are the two worst boards on the site.

Too many people seem to think /b/ represents what all the boards are like. Hobby boards are all fairly focused and serious, such as /ck/ and /an/ and have close to no shitposting.

The anime discussion board is the highest quality board compared to its size, for example(Moot's own words).

I use too many sites to kill time already, don't need 4chan as well. Usually spend like 1 hour a day browsing shit which is enough I think.

/v/ is shitposting:the board, basically /b/ 2.0
They'd rather have threads where they whine about e-celebs and SJWs than talk about vidya, it's awful.
The /vg/ split seemed to be the final nail in the coffin for /v/ tbh, because while /vg/ aint great because threads quickly become circlejerks, they're atleast talking about vidya.

the second part of your reply is basically why I don't understand why people like it.

but if that's the only place you can go to have a good convo about an anime you like, power to you. I honestly don't watch that much of the stuff, so if I wanted to, I could probably have a conversation about it on LD forums.

The main problem with 4chan is that it gets defined by its worst actors and the total anonymity attracts part of the internet that are the worst of the worst. Of course there are good folks that are just there to discuss anime and laugh, but they don't make headlines. But the bad people on 4chan and 8chan are pretty much the last people on the internet you want to interact with.

Cowboy Bebop confirmed best Anime of all time. Ended well, solid episodes and good characters. And minimal creepiness in its female characters.

no /b/ 2.0 is like r9k and pol combined
/v/ is (was) much tamer than /b/, idk about now

/a/ has a fair deal of shitposting just like any other board. tbh i feel like i browse it far less than i should, considering my general level of interest in manga
in my experience not all hobby boards are made the same. eg, /fa/ and /g/ go from garbage to great in alternating cycles, /tv/ and /fit/ are garbage, /mu/ and /k/ are extremely secular, etc.
on the other hand i feel /ck/, /lit/, /tg/ and /p/ are great places to browse if you're into those topics

cowboy bebop: one of the best animes of all time, discuss.

Different boards have different users, /m/ doesn't have the kind of awful posting that /b/ does.
So just because one board is shit why would that make me not want to use another board? That would be like quitting a forum because there is a single awful thread.
Also neither kamen rider or garo are anime, or well garo recently got an anime but the tokusatsu series isn't anime.
There are other places to talk about anime, but even the TL anime thread is fairly slow and i can't have as quick or fast discussions about a specific series or manga as i could on the anime board. Like if i wanted to talk about a very specific anime like TTGL i'll probably get a lot more replies by using 4chan compared to TL.

Also Cowboy bebop is good, i rate it 9/10 myself but i wouldn't at all say one of the best anime of all time, a good share of things i would rate above it or equally as good, but it's great for sure.

/a/ has the least amount of shitposting compared to its size and activity according to both mods and moot though, it's also one of the few boards that still tells people to lurk more, that and /jp/.

The anime discussion board is the highest quality board compared to its size, for example(Moot's own words).

is /v/ really that bad nowadays
i used to browse it daily a couple years ago, before /vg/ got added and it was pretty decent back then

/v/ is shitposting:the board, basically /b/ 2.0
They'd rather have threads where they whine about e-celebs and SJWs than talk about vidya, it's awful.
The /vg/ split seemed to be the final nail in the coffin for /v/ tbh, because while /vg/ aint great because threads quickly become circlejerks, they're atleast talking about vidya.


the second part of your reply is basically why I don't understand why people like it.

but if that's the only place you can go to have a good convo about an anime you like, power to you. I honestly don't watch that much of the stuff, so if I wanted to, I could probably have a conversation about it on LD forums.

cowboy bebop: one of the best animes of all time, discuss.

Different boards have different users, /m/ doesn't have the kind of awful posting that /b/ does.
So just because one board is shit why would that make me not want to use another board? That would be like quitting a forum because there is a single awful thread.
Also neither kamen rider or garo are anime, or well garo recently got an anime but the tokusatsu series isn't anime.
There are other places to talk about anime, but even the TL anime thread is fairly slow and i can't have as quick or fast discussions about a specific series or manga as i could on the anime board. Like if i wanted to talk about a very specific anime like TTGL i'll probably get a lot more replies by using 4chan compared to TL.

Also Cowboy bebop is good, i rate it 9/10 myself but i wouldn't at all say one of the best anime of all time, a good share of things i would rate above it or equally as good, but it's great for sure.

one of my buddies visits 4chan frequently and im not sure why. I feel like it's all inane bs. I'm glad they cleaned their act up, but I still don't understand how anyone can browse that website.

Because it's fun to talk with people who are interested in the same things as you are yourself? Like if i want to talk about a tokusatsu series like kamen rider or Garo i probably wont find a better place than /m/ for it.

4chan got a lot better once Moot booted all the worst offenders to 8chan. Its not nearly as bad as it was a year ago.

There's literally no difference between now and a year ago for the vast majority of the boards, only boards like /v/ and /b/ were really affected, which are the two worst boards on the site.

Going to 4chan is like looking for gold nuggets in a literal ocean of shit. Yea you're gonna find a lot of gold, you're also diving in shit. Most people go there to have fun and call each other faggots, I think it's easy to see the appeal of that?

Finding good discussions on 4chan is easy if you're not going to a horrible board, i can practically always find a thread on /m/ worth reading.
Too many people seem to think /b/ represents what all the boards are like.

no /b/ 2.0 is like r9k and pol combined
/v/ is (was) much tamer than /b/, idk about now

/a/ has a fair deal of shitposting just like any other board. tbh i feel like i browse it far less than i should, considering my general level of interest in manga
in my experience not all hobby boards are made the same. eg, /fa/ and /g/ go from garbage to great in alternating cycles, /tv/ and /fit/ are garbage, /mu/ and /k/ are extremely secular, etc.
on the other hand i feel /ck/, /lit/, /tg/ and /p/ are great places to browse if you're into those topics

/a/ has the least amount of shitposting compared to its size and activity according to both mods and moot though, it's also one of the few boards that still tells people to lurk more, that and /jp/.



TTGL >>> cowboy bebop for sure. I just happen to like the ending of bebop a lot more than I've ever liked any ending in a story.

Thats actually completely unfair and incorrect since I just checked and Firebolt is above 50% now.

Fate/Zero my favourite animu and Saber waifu suck on that.

There's certainly nothing wrong with TTGL and Cowboy Bebop though, or well there's a lot of things wrong with TTGL but in a good way.

TTGL is basically my own personal number one although i definitely don't think it's the best anime made

TTGL as an anime is more about the experience and the sheer quantity of hotblooded bravado than it's about the story, the story is fairly average.

Plus the
+ Show Spoiler +

In the final episode was just icing on the cake, more anime should do that.
From the Ghastly Eyrie I can see to the ends of the world, and from this vantage point I declare with utter certainty that this one is in the bag!

We could talk about the new DareDevil series on Netflix and how it looks awesome.
