The last good place to discuss niche seasonal anime will die a slow death. I meant 4chan's /a/. Sad.
https://boards.4chan.org/a/thread/272330934

Do you know of any other fairly active chans where you discuss lesser know anime&manga titles?

Did anyone else find this one super interesting? I absolutely loved it. My favorite genre of documentary is the kind that focuses on some super niche topic like this. Any recommendations for documentaries that also focus on random subjects?

 No.9840

>>9836
Yes Grizzly Man is great! I'd also recommend the rest of Werner Herzog's documentaries all of them are just random topics he personally finds interesting.

Some really random ones I like…

Atomic Cafe (1982) which is a collection of historic footage and propaganda pieces all about atom bombs. It's pretty funny in a dark sense and uses a lot of juxtaposition.

The People vs. George Lucas (2010) a movie about fringe Star Wars fans and their love-hate relationship with the creator. What's interesting is it was made before the sequel trilogy so the "fringe" and "crazy" fans that are depicted in the film are now the kind of people you would find on youtube.

Screaming in High Heels: The Rise & Fall of the Scream Queen Era (2011) movie about women in B movies. If you like Troma and other low brow trash (like me) you'll get more out of it, but even without that there's also discussion of the B movie business as a whole that's interesting.

Tapped (2009) A movie about bottled water, the business, the environmental impact, and companies attempts to market something you can get for free.

Room 237 (2012) Insane documentary which markets itself as being about interpretations of the film The Shining, but is actually a movie about conspiracy theories and how the human brain has the tendency to see patterns where there are none. If you haven't seen the Kubrick film this one will make no sense though.

You went above and beyond! Thank you! It's so hard to find good documentaries, and I'll definitely check out all of the ones you listed. I hate being let down by an interesting premise. There was one documentary I tried to watch a long time ago about how a woman lied about surviving 9/11, and worked her way up to becoming president of the World Trade Center Survivors' Network before getting caught. Somehow, they managed to turn this very interesting subject into something way more boring. It wasn't bad, but it had the potential to be so much better.
>I'd also recommend the rest of Werner Herzog's documentaries
I love all of Werner Herzog's documentaries that I've watched. I love his perspective, and he has such a unique style. That one clip of him talking about the chicken cracks me up.
>Screaming in High Heels: The Rise & Fall of the Scream Queen Era (2011)
This one sounds really cool, as I've also watched a lot of B-movies and garbage of that nature. I actually know nothing about the industry, so I'm excited to learn.
>Tapped (2009)
I just watched this one because of your recommendation, and it's so fascinating! It's personally interesting to me for reasons I can't really detail, but this is a great recommendation. I wish more people were aware of this.
>Room 237 (2012) Insane documentary which markets itself as being about interpretations of the film The Shining, but is actually a movie about conspiracy theories and how the human brain has the tendency to see patterns where there are none.

This sounds like my favorite type of thing. I've never watched The Shining despite loving horror movies because I hate Stephen King. Maybe I'll have to finally watch The Shining just so I can enjoy this documentary! Kubrick did direct one of my all-time favorite movies, and I like a lot of his work, so it won't be too much of a chore.

I hate office love as a genre to begin with so it's not for me personally, but I can see why women would like it more than men because for one thing the women look like adults and have short hair. Two things that otaku men find absolutely reprehensible.

Anon you make really good points. There are many, many video essays about how every nu-Disney protagonists have the same quirky personality or how corporate meddling scrubs out any slightly ambitious plot point or character (see Wish fandom based on unused cute Starboy concept).

I really love princely characters with light, usually platinum blonde, hair like Eichi or Tadase. It's such a particular trope but they always look so clean and pure and otherworldly especially with the white horse imagery.

They were once a week for years. Used to be on Tuesdays but people forgot to make threads and somehow it ended up slipping to Wednesday and Thursday. Kind of worked out since Free was on Wednesdays. Also weekend threads happened for streams, whereas in the past year they just lasted several days into the weekend. It's mostly after that one asshole spammed them every day that people got strict about what day and how often they were, I don't feel there was any real rhyme or reason to the mods deleting the legitimate threads before that. That was purely because of shitposters spamming the thread and mass reporting them. I'm glad that stupid monkey image no longer gets posted. It always signaled when they were trying to sabotage the thread.

Where should the cut-off date for 'historical' stuff be?

 No.9520

>>9519
That's a good question. Going by japanese time periods I'd say the showa era is too close to modern for my standards even though I know World war 2 is still technically historical.

 No.9525

>>9519
Every past era is historical to me. WWII is certainly historical but why shouldn't the Vietnam war or Berlin wall related stories be considered historical?

To be honest I am interested in all periods no matter which, including cave men. Though I will most likely avoid Victorian age stuff unless it's a manga about the Firth of Tay Bridge or something.
I would call everything historical that involves eras or conflicts that are mostly concluded. So the current invasions aren't historical to me, at least not as long as they last, but the Balkan war is, even though it just ended a few decades ago.

A thread to discuss how to reach potential new users for Fujochan from around the web. Over the years, we have gained a core user base of fujos with diverse interests and thoughts. With the recent 4chan downtime, it is the perfect opportunity to expand the user base and gain regular posters!

For example, we have discussed using an Ao3 tag to drive curious users to the site in another thread. If you have more thoughts, share them here!

Yeah, just putting in the author's note "written for fujochan prompt challenge" is enough to get the name in there. The collection name can keep it short with "FC (whatever)" so the focus is still on the activity. If it's too heavily labelled people might pass it by because they aren't part of the group, you want them to read first and check where it came from second.

The hypocrisy is astounding. Plebbit is full of degrading porn, yet the average Plebbitor thinks itself innocent and not burdened with guilt by association.

Until I forget to keep checking it. Can move to discord after getting to know one another a bit.

>What age range are you most comfortable with for new potential friendships?

25+, ideally closer to my own age. It's a struggle to find hag friends.

>Favorite movies/shows/BL/Doujinshis/etc

I'll watch almost anything if it's entertaining enough, but I tend to stray towards horror or media with darker/violent themes. For anime and manga, I also read a lot of seinen and shounen.

>Have you ever been on a disney cruise
I actually really really hate cruises (I get sea sick incredibly easily) so it's one of those things I'd never ever do even if it's disney hahaha
>Have you ever been to Eurodisney?
Only been to disneyland and disneyworld (hopefully next year I can go to the Japan parks if everything works out!)
I've heard that Disneyland Paris gets basically treated like the island of misfit mascots and all their underused characters go there which is kinda interesting though! Also the bar in this video looks pretty sick, but I think it was only temporary.
>What disney rides do you rec?
grizzly river cruise at disneyland is a lot of fun, the disneyworld version is a lot shorter so it's definitely inferior to the one at disneyland though
I also really like mr toad's wild ride because it's so vintage.
I've heard of the new avatar stuff is fun but I haven't been to a disney park in almost a decade so I haven't seen them for myself (just in Jenny Nicholson videos).
