I deeply miss the crafty and niche aspect of otaku culture, subcultures that arent mainstream, maybe offensive, and a focus around the creative aspects of otaku culture as well. It was truly a spirit that came from the heart and wasnt afraid about being socially acceptable. (´ー` )

Nowadays its all sanitized, and consumer oriented, rarely do i hear about people making things.
In the early days of otaku culture people made a lot of things themselves, because merch simply wasnt available - figures for example, dojin games, etc.

How on earth do you facilitate the desire for people to create that kind of environment, i think the demand is there but not enough people know what to DO, how to MAKE things, how to form communities centered around niche subjects, how do we fix that?

OK, you'll forgive me, because this is srs business. OP, it's simple, but difficult to explain. Have you seen those "the internet used to be a place" kind of videos? It's like that.

Things used to be mostly physical. Phones had lots of chrome, and they were designed like objects. Nowadays, they are made to be as invisible as possible. They're made to be sleek, sure, but the focus is no longer on the object, but on what's inside of the screen.

You can extrapolate that notion everywhere. The world is becoming more and more digital, so it's no surprise that it's killing creativity. It makes you live in your head more and more. Like a VR reality that hijacks your imagination to establish itself. No need for complex hardware.

Of course there are many other factors. But I think this is key.

We need to go back to a physically centric focus in the way we relate to our objects and spaces, and stop living in our own heads. The Japanese traditionally have been better at this, probably because of their animistic worldview?
IDK but we really need to keep the digital demons on a leash.

After watching a few spring season shows, I think mono is my favorite. It is an adaptation of another work by Yuru Camp mangaka. There is a similar vibe, but in my opinion the girls are much, much cuter!

I feel the same. And that goth girl talking about ghosts and the like (which apparentely do actually exist in this universe??) ruins the SoL vibe of the show.

It looked great at the beginning, but now it's kinda losing me. Last episode really wasn't that good

As a n00b like me who didn't watch TTGL when it was airing at its peak i can't help but catch a major case of FOMO looking at them. Anyone who was around at that time how was the attention it got?

Where I live, finding anything anime related mid 2000 was like finding gold.

I was there in the thread when it was airing weekly. Shit was wildly hype and there was crazy competition with Code Gayass which was airing its first season at the same time. The hate which Rossiu got during the second cour was incredible. It was a ride.

I figured as much that, it was popular amongst the anime communities at the time rather than it being massive popular amongst non anime fans. Even pic related like the kamina glasses was a big fad that never seemed to go away. Even the fact that a suggestion for a new flag was a ttgl reference shows it's influence. Wish I could've been there. :cry:
>>
ttgl was inescapable if you were in any circles that were into anime

and a handful of more normal audiences might have referenced shit like Kamina's shades or ROW ROW FIGHT DA POWAH

honestly, it's still a fucking great show so like go watch it anyway
maybe not quite as 11/10 perfect as I thought it was all those years ago, but fuck man, even among the sort who were like "lol Getter Robo ripoff" - you could do much worse than ripoff something as cool as Getter and do it well :cool:
it is an 8/10 at its worst (apart from the one episode where everything is off model and backgrounds were too much effort to draw :biggrin: )

You could try tweaking around gelbooru with tags...
onee-shota -rating:questionable -rating:explicit

gives some corresponding results (don't forget to "Display all site content" in the options (the options that are inside the settings))
