I don't know, maybe this is an obscure complaint, but does anyone else here feel as if the anime artsyle is kind of 'played-out' at this point?
I mean, there's all this bog-standard, hyper-rendered digital art, and then there are Westerners who've spent their whole career trying to emulate the style, and then there's AI-art, which has increased the production of anime-style art by 4000%...
It all kind of feels like mush to me, now. Highly generic. I mean, the anime artstyle has literally become the default style for people who want to draw pretty pictures but have no ideas of their own. Everyone from retard teenagers looking at their first drawing tutorial to hack concept artists drawing the millionth dead-eyed pretty girl uses the anime artstyle. I've met people who draw in the anime style who don't even watch anime. It feels like there is no 'surprise' to it anymore.
Maybe I just feel like this because I'm an artist myself and I'm yearning to differentiate myself. I don't know.
Here's something to think about. In the West, the animanga artstyle basically supplanted the western comic/cartoon (seen in superhero comics, or disney cartoons), as the 'hip' style everyone wanted to take after. Maybe in future the same sort of thing will happen to the anime artstyle. A new style of popular art will come along that captures people's imaginations and inspires them to draw in a similar way. Like maybe they're cooking up something special in Jamaica or somewhere which will blow people's minds...

I find the ""anime art style"" to be a perfect balance between cute and realistic, which effectively makes it the best general-purpose art style. I personally don't feel tired of it. If it ain't broken, don't fix it, as they say... |

I see where OP is coming from but I think it's not entirely hopeless. Kotoyama has a very clear "anime" aesthetic to their art but their manga panels have characters looking sharper and more angular (especially in "Call of the Night") and I'm sure there are other artists in the space who have their own flair. |

I agree in a way. I'm not bothered by how everybody is mimicking the "anime style" (as if there is only one) these days because most of that mimicky stuff is garbage. It's like people saw anime and just tried to vaguely imitate it, noseless girls with v shaped faces and eyes bigger than tits and nothing much else. What gets me is the way this mimicky anime mush has influenced the Japanese anime industry itself to the point virtually all anime looks and feels samey these days. I hate how literally everything is thin lines with faint pastel colors except for a few set piece sequences like the intro, which seems the default vanilla style these days. There's almost no diversity in art style anymore. Compare Ouran Academy Host Club to Serial Experiments Lain, completely different. But today all anime looks the same. Part of me thinks this is mass production, but part of me blames how the Japanese suddenly realized an export market existed for thus stuff and studios stopped making shows and instead focus on making something that looks and feels "anime" defined by American pop culture standards. |

Anime is too broad to criticize as a whole, flat, art style. Obviously, the generic stuff will always look generic. If you only look at popular shows and popular artists, it will start to blend together. The same thing was said long ago when K-On! started to dominate how "anime" as a whole looked. There will always be unoriginal copycats, but also, there will always be passionate and interesting creators pushing the boundaries. Try to appreciate the difference, and you may have more fun. |

I'm having trouble finding unique, obscure anime these days |
Should hitting the post button return you to the index, as it does now? Or should it noko automatically and return you to the thread you just posted in, like jschan does (I think)?
Do others have opinions on this?

nonoko returns you back to the index rather than the thread. |

There's an option in the [Settings] above where users can turn "Always noko" on or off |

4chan banned me for asking for a rum distillation recipe on the /diy/ board (;´Д`) as if the government has cared about illegal hobby distillation at any point within the last decade
so, could anyone here give me advice?
this is the still i'm getting, the 13 gallon version with all extra components:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/385202860563?var=653080417339
and i'm planning on making a 10-13 gallon mash using 2.5 gallons of light molasses (no other sugars)
what sort of spices should i infuse into it, i'm thinking of vanilla or cinnamon, or something of that sort
in an experimental run, i could probably infuse tobacco leaves to give it an interesting flavor
>> |
Ejaculate in a dank place to create sperm-shrooms ヽ(´ー`)ノ |
>> |
if anyone's still interested, i started the mash, and i found that about a pound or two of brown sugar plus the 2.5 gallons of light molasses will be perfect for getting the mash to 12-13% for a good mix of flavor and yields |
>> |
Sorry I can't contribute OP, but I'm sure there was some other guy talking about distillation on /b/ some time ago. Or was that just you? |
>> |
Good ideas i should try what you said. Combination sound cool. Anyway 4chan sucks. From most open forum to dictatorship but they dont care worse crimes there. |

Oftentimes online personalities aimed at young men often say that jerking off often is weak and unhealthy but having real life sex is strong and good for you. Is there actually any difference between masturbation and real sex with another person other than the way that it seems socially?
>> |
The difference is that I will never have the latter, and I'm actually proud of that (because I will gain magical powers) ヽ(´∇`)ノ |
>> |
My opinion is that this is a stupid question. Next! |
>> |
I don't know about all that philosophy stuff but I'm pretty sure real sex just feels better. I've never had it but I managed to reach the level of heavy petting with a girl and it was immediately more exhilarating that just fapping. |
>> |
i believe that sex is like masturbating but would feel 100 times better... ( ´ω`) would feel so good to cum in cute girl while she hold me |

i usually laugh at normalfags in my head at how boring of a life they must have but it must be nice to be able to do everything the default way. im thinking about getting a therapist or something because ive been having problems lately and theres no one i can really explain them to because they wont understand my situation. anyone else been wishing they were more normal?

![]() I did not expect this to be so controversial. But it is nice seeing that people cared about the friendship... Maybe I'll add a NSFW friends page with a disclaimer, I just don't want wapchan users to think we have the same kinds of rule sets just because we are friend sites, since I will try to push wapchan into a slightly more mainstream direction. It's always going to be a very niche site, but I want to position it as a modern successor to old anime shrine or fanpage kind of sites) |

All's well that ends well |
I saw the "Would you be attracted to or replused by a woman who uses Heyuri" poll and I was wondering what your guy's reasoning was for your vote
Personally the main thing that attracted me about women is how naive and pure a lot of them are, and Heyuri is the opposite of that.

Some pointless rambling mixed with vague ranting about kuz and kolyma. Has barely anything to do with Heyuri (with only one mention of it, too). Don't see much of a point of leaving it up, so I went and removed it. ┐(゚~゚)┌ |

I'm using Windows 10 (Yes, I know, throw stones at me.) and I already know all about how much they jump down your ass: (https://www.emsisoft.com/en/blog/18770/the-truth-about-windows-10-spying-on-almost-everything-you-do/)
But I've got this little thing in the corner telling me to 'Activate Windows'. If Windows is 'unactivated', does that mean I'm flying under the radar, or do they still have their hooks in me?
