I hate moralfags, bro. Odd, cause I thought I made that word... But I guess it's actually a legit term for them used by other people too O.o *shocked*
You obviously haven't been on 4chan have you? They've been calling people moralfags for years.
No shit? Lol had no idea, I never went on 4chan cause I heard horror stories when I was a teenager of goatse pictures and jarguy and figured I didn't feel like seeing shock pictures of fucked sexual organs. That's literally all I thought it was and that was back when all i used the internet for was porn and ps1+2 codes. Funny nowadays I get drunk and watch those same pictures with friends to shock them... Oh how the wheels turn. So never went to 4chan figured I might as well not start now, don't want to be a mainstreamfag (see what i did thar?) I hate how Ika Musume episodes are done, with like 2-3 minisodes, lehate.

I can play that song on Piano. I feel epic just thinking about it. ^^
Meh, 4chan's notoriety is largely overrated. As long as you stick to the anime/manga board and have a decently thick skin, it's not that bad. Admittedly, a lot of the threads are trolls or just downright, so being able to hide threads is a godsend. The few remaining threads are usually pretty good and have some pretty decent discussion though. The best thing about /a/ is probably the speed at which news propagates though - oftentimes, the first place I hear about new shows, series, or scanlation projects is there.
That is true. Also i just watched the "Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi" PV Its probably gonna be another harem and i'll end up hating the main character but i'll still watch it anyways. -_- And the art looks familiar [edit] looks like akane-iro somaru saka

Probably cause fewer fans frequent the thread tbh. I'd be willing to discuss anything If my memory weren't shit for things i watch/read. I pretty much braindump everything I watch/see. But I'm sure its not a willingness issue more of a not as many people who frequent the thread/people who've never seen it, or people like me who've just forgotten. TBH though there seems to me, to be more VN and anime game talk here than anything.

If only they were willing to talk about KnT D:
I read the description for Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi on ANN. I saw "adult bishoujo game" and "accidental kiss". I'd say it's pretty evident what kind of show it'll be.

This thread isn't really dominated by VN and game talk. It just so happens that a bunch of guys just started playing recently, so the discussion kinda shifted in that direction for a while (I also blame Type-Moon for having such an intricate universe). I'd say there's more of a focus on currently airing anime in this thread than anything else, really.
I think that it just seems that way because secretly we're all just waiting for the new Madoka ep, so we can have five pages of speculation on Thursday.
Also nice sig quote, Spazer.
Edit: Got this idea from a friend: What do you guys think of the possibility of a Madoka fighting game? Who would you main? I'd probably have to go with Kyouko. Or Madoka.

With the exception of Negima, I have to said i have liked none in that list. But i agree to what tonight(?) said for himself and i guess that applies to me as well: I'm a sucker for harem animes.

Kyouko, her weapon is versatile and you could do soo much shit with it.

I probably would never buy it, there's just something about anime fighting games that SCREAM bad, maybe i'm disenfranchised by all the naruto/dbz/onepiece/various other anime fighting games... No maybe about it I am. And by what I said about not a lot of anime discussion. We are only discussing madoka tbh, maybe a little IS but that's just hating on the harem aspect of the show and a little cheering for Germany, honestly haven't seen much else, though tbh none of it is that good. Kore ha Zombie/Freezing/madoka are the only ones im keeping up with past 3-4 episodes of the others. Maybe I'll keep watching Beelzebub but not because i really want to. Ahh there was some Star Driver but is that airing atm or past stuff? Idk :/ Basically, it doesn't matter what you guys talk about as long as someone is interested... I was just responding to that guy about willingness to talk about anime, my hyperbole wasn't completely accurate but when are they ever? I'm wracking my memory and we do talk anime, just past 10~ pages have like all been Nasuverse VN discussion which is where I drew my reasoning from :D Told you my memory sucks. God I ramble a lot.

I'm watching GoSick(sort of), Freezing, Madoka, Freezing, Merry, and Kimi ni Todoke this season, but the only one people really ever talk about is Madoka. A little bit of IS, but mainly it's all Madoka.

Edit: Quoted wrong post.
Honestly, there's not that much to talk about this season. Madoka is Madoka, and IS seems to be extremely popular as well.
We talked about Gosick, Fractale, Merry, etc. for a few weeks, but a lot of us have dropped some of those shows.

Like that other guy said, 4chan's notoriety stems almost exclusively from /b/, which basically started all the retarded memes across the internet now... (lolcats among them...)
And yeah, the moralfag term comes from the fact that b refers to people as xfag, such as oldfag, newfag, moralfag, etc. I'd be considered an oldfag because I've been browsing there off an on since late 2008 IIRC. (something like that anyway) when anyone who's been there for more than about 3 months or so usually ends up qualifying as an oldfag...
But yeah, aside form the random trolling and such (and much of that is from /b/ invading /a/) it's not a bad place at all. There are of course some idiots who just post stupid crap, but it tends to react really quickly to things.
Last 5-7 episodes of Star Driver have been much better than the first half of the series tbh :u. I wonder if there's anyone on TL still watching though

Yah, madoka rocks /fanboy But I liker darker takes on common genres way too much, like pokemon fanfic Sun soul, That shit was way better than whatever retard wrote up the storyline for pokemon. But really IS? I dropped that shit after the second childhood friend (cliche) entrance and seeming competition b/w the two /yawn. Gosick has loli girl right? That's like it's only redeeming feature i heard. Don't know the other two...
