As a genuine question, I've noticed after being on the forums for a couple of months that, there isn't much activity when it comes to users interacting. I mean, we have activity spikes here and there, but I've noticed that the site has been more dead, and mostly the veteran users have been active. Newbies and just other users in general haven't been as active, and it leaves me to this question...what can WE do as a forum to get this site more out there to bring the family more together? And a question for the Veteran forum users, have you guys noticed the lack of activity on the forums? Or is it just me?

To place a video here on this site you only need to copy and paste the link of the video from Youtube and it will show inside the post. I liked this animation. The idea of animating anime images is very cool.

I came across a romance anime of this type years ago (I forgot its name) where the MC is literally you, the girl is breaking the 4th wall. I hope someone know the name of this genre, I looked and looked and couldn't find the genre name or any rom anime of this kind. Genre name ? And some sauces ?

It been awhile XD Finished Dragon Ball Absolutely brilliant can't wait for DBZ, naturally gutted about the more recent news in the DB circle all I can say on that is that Akira Toriyama was a legend and I'm totally gonna be playing Chrono Trigger. Up to episode 71 of Galaxy Express 999 A great show by the also unfortunately late Leiji Matsumoto Completed Star Wars Visions Yeah this wasn't the best probably just further prove that the best anime is made exclusively in Japan, it reminds me strongly of Halo Legends a jumbled messy that fails to be as good as other similar anime in the genre whilst also failing to feel and capture the sprite of the source material (not that Disney can do that either) Re-watched Toradora! Natural this show only gets better Watched Blue Submarine No. 6 This was a really good one that I randomly watched, highly recommend need to watch more GONZO shows. Watched Lunar Legend Tsukihime Really enjoyed this, kind of had some stilted animation, but a great story. Re-Watched Mobile Suit Gundam Origin I'm one of the biggest OG Gundam Fans in the World, We all know I enjoyed this rewatch. Re-Watching Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood This is a classic anime though the more I rewatch it the more tempted I am to watch the classic FMA Started watching Frieren: Beyond Journey's End This is a wonderful fantasy anime and very Tolkin in feeling Goblin Slayer Season 2 This one was also super good, I have to say their was a lot of strong fantasy anime this last season or 2. So glad we saw the return of Goblin Slayer Pluto I honestly didn't like this which was disappointing as I had high hopes for the show since it came from the same writer as Monster Finished Nadia The Secret of Blue Water Also just recently finished Nadia the Secret of Blue Water, it was so good I smashed though this show effortless and I didn't even skip the filler arch's which I actually (controversial opinion) enjoyed

That is neat! Is this an anime image that they animated?

I’m the original poster, I asked this question because I really was disgusted by a lot of anime/ more but more so manga and hentai anime depicting children in sexual scenarios. I think for me I can know it’s not really children, it’s not real fotos, but I often wonder if people who draw porn of small children in their manga, are they using real child porn as references, I don’t know,l??? will they ever admit to it? Idk do I think all use references of chile porn? no, do I think all mangakas who draw lolis are pedophiles, no. But im sure some are and it’s always itching at the back of my head if I’m seeing art inspired by child porn. It’s hard to avoid it, you Google an anime you like and loli art pops up, suggestions, I think for me my heart gets heavy everytime I think of is this based off a real child? Did they trace over a real child. Child porn in Japan wasn’t illegal till 1999 and illegal to own until 2014. You could go to a store and buy it in the shady section. I know not everyone who like lolis are pedos, but I know some are and considering how lax publishers are with publishing anyone’s work it’s disturbing I think people who make this type of art should be investigated and made sure they aren’t doing anything nefarious. If I could have it my way i wouldn’t ban it causing banning things makes things worse; at least at first I’d make the public image of loli unpalatable by exposing all the disgusting things it portrays and basically sometimes you need to shame people foe why they like. And then once it’s let’s “normal” to the public I’d ban it. In a perfect world. Basically I think background checks should be done for people who draw this type of pornography. Sexualization of children, even in manga should be taken more seriously. For me, maybe I’ve become more sensitive to it but even if I’m watching an anime I like that is relatively free of anything sexual or weird it’s always at the back of my head that I’m participating. I like anime and manga, I search it up and BAM, suggestion “I’m not a lolicon trending manga is being suggested, and so many things where i feel ill explode. Do you at least understand what I’m trying to say or convey? Can you understand why I’m disturbed, as a woman who was once a young girl as well it’s just I feel disrespected in away, exploited? Thank you everyone who’s answered this thread, truly I’ve felt isolated or weird by the way I feel. I love to draw and I love animation and anime has done so many great things but I just often wonder peoples true intentions when they draw things. Even anime that’s pretty normal if they have a weird shot of a young girls legs for too long, I’m like why? Is the animator a pedo? Is it just to pander to loliicons? I can’t ever know who is a pedo and how is a lolicon. Some like cartoons others real children. Sometimes they overlap and because I have to see it when I searching up anime or cute anime girl. It’s like HERES HER 8 year old ASS. It’s like a little knife to the heart everytime. Alwyas at the back of my mind. Why? I saw that vice vidoe where they talk about manga and it’s underage porn problem. Some guy who publishes manga, he has a job and he said “ I draw this manga based off real sex crimes against children in Japan, not my own experiences. And I was like OH UM THATS STILL DISGUSTING SIR. Go to jail and for. Who would do that?? Draw sex crimes. He admitted this on camera. He also admitted he was a pedofile and this helps to keep him from committing. Bullshit my ass he does it because he is either A. Is committing or B. Scared to commit cause he’ll get caught. The manga you draw just fuels it. You admitted to drawing about REAL CASES. If you disagree please tell me why? I genuinely want to know. How can you disassociate the two. How are you ok with seeing it. Even if you don’t enjoy it. I see it and immediately want to vomit. I used to not be so sensitive I don’t know why I am now, am I just becoming more aware of how damaging it is to me? And society idk. Lastly wanted to add when I say loli I mean in the sense of child being drawn in sexually suggestive manner or blatant pornography. Boy or girl. Seeing a girl or boy who looks 10 with their ass out is not something we need to see, it’s not funny or adds to the plot, it’s just weird. People who like lolis cause they’re cute and not sexualized, that’s different. I like cute characters too, it’s the sexualizing. Why do I need to see her vagina indent in her panty shot?? It’s happened too many times. It’s just too acceptable, people who like this stuff will still exist I just wish it was harder to find and more obscure, if it has to exist.

Just asking ;>

madhouse? Gkids? ADV? Crunchyroll? Who comes out with the best anime series and movies?

So you are aware many anime get edited before they get here. Name some of your favorite scenes that should have been there. Also Ghost Stories did the opposite, taKING A G-RATED SHOW AND MAKING IT R

To each their own. All I know is I'm not the type to be cut out for optimism, but I can't speak for anyone else.

Anyone care to list recommendations for anime type PSX PSP PS2 games? I've googled for awhile and I'm only finding the same old Naruto dragonballz type games. I need something not well known and/or obscure. Thanks and have a great weekend.

Yes every time I'm buying tons of anime merch I'm thinking to myself "It could be much worse, it's not drugs, at least it's not drugs" XD

surprisingly my mom got into anime and manga because of the live action of one piece and yu yu hakusho. she really liked one piece and loved yu yu hakusho (the live action of course). any anime you would recommend for new watchers or/and with darker themes would probably what she would like. any help would be recommended. even if they are old show

Just finished Evangelion and I want to die, do you guys have any recommendations, no mecha please, I'm done with that for now HAHAH >:3

By girlier, I'm specifically looking for something that is either more cutesy, sparkly, and frilly or something that focuses more on makeup, crushing on boys, fashion, and shopping. Tokyo Mew Mew is the only magical girl anime I've seen I'll try Wedding Peach

I've managed to finish binge watching all three series of Classroom of the Elite. When I first heard of this series back in 2017 or 18 I watched a couple of trailers and read a review or two and thought "pass, not interested". Then when series 3 came out this year and started generating a lot of interest on the Facebook anime pages I thought it might be worth a watch. So was it worth the watch? Short answer: perhaps! For a high school Slice of Life style anime it's nothing like any I'd seen before, I don't think any school has ever had such a high percentage of anti-social, stuck-up, pompous, nasty, scheming, sadistic and downright evil students. Then there's the school itself which has some strange rules and seems to be determined to set-up it's students for expulsion. I must admit that in the first two series the machinations of the various class factions to gain victory over each other in the weird tests the school set were interesting. However in the third series the seemingly endless 'special exams' the school kept setting were becoming a bit tedious and even verging on "monster of the week" territory. Overall: I found it an intriguing and different storyline with some interesting characters and interesting interactions between them. I can't say that I enjoyed watching the series, but I'm glad I did. Would I watch it again? Probably not, would I watch series 4 if/when it comes out? Maybe.

I was 15 half a lifetime ago and things felt simpler then than they do now. At this time in my life my only job was going to school which I was in comprehensive school or high school. At that time I was still living in my home country of Finland whereas I only recently moved to the United States for a job. I was still learning English then and my English wasn't as good as it is now, even if I still struggle with some English words now. Around that time of age 14 - 15 was when I discovered and began watching anime and getting into playing games on the computer regularly. Overall I think my life was very carefree then with less stress and hassle than that of being an adult with adult responsibility. Another thing I remember was in the Summer of the year I was 15 we took a vacation to China in Hong Kong and to this day remains one of my best vacation experiences.

Hiiii again! I've finally got some photoshoots happening with my anime bjds, so I thought I'd share them here. I'm gonna start with my newest doll but will probably add some more as I take them. There's a few on my profile too as status updates. The final photo at the bottom is my setup for today's shoot I go a little nuts with the sparkles, lol

Maybe try Wedding Peach https://myanimelist.net/anime/1533/Ai_Tenshi_Densetsu_Wedding_Peach

Dragon Ball creator Akira Toriyama died at the age of 68 on March 1st. His most recent works are the upcoming anime Dragon Ball Daima and Sand Land. Toriyama is a legendary public figure in the world of anime and manga and his work has impacted and influenced countless others. Dragon Ball popularized anime in the west and this year is celebrating its 40th anniversary. The world of anime and manga is in a state of shock. A private funeral by the family of Toriyama was held.

My main hobby outside of writing has been doing BJD (ball jointed doll) customization. Mine are anime-styled, so the eyes I make out of resin are also more along the lines of an anime look. I design the irises in ibispaint, drawing em myself, and then print them and encase them in resin. It's a fun process! I will share some dolls I create once my supplies arrive.

Need help with a name of anime I seen years ago it was about a elf girl who starts high school at a human school and become friends with a human boy
