Any thoughts on adding /a/?If you will, it should be titled "Anime" and not "Anime & Manga", because 4ch's /a/ was titled "Anime" until late 2006.Marked for deletion (Old)
We've had an anime board in one form or another at many points in the past ( https://wiki.heyuri.net/index.php?title=Heyuri#Former ), but those boards were seldom used and weren't any different from Off-Topic in terms of the kinds of posts you could expectSo for the sake of not needlessly splitting the site's users/activity up and making moderation more of a hassle than it needed to be, they were merged with Off-Topic
>>63674Oh, cool!
Post more anime-topics would make my day!
>>63684I just post one :)And if kaguya adds an /a/ board, I promise to post three threads per week minimum, and to respond to every thread posted, AND to shill heyuri.net/a/ on 4chan.org/a/ with MysteriumVPN
I will reply and post later, however i do not want/a/ here...
>>63685>shill heyuri.net/a/ on 4chan.org/a/
>>63685You can open 3 anime threads on Off-Topic every week, that's what we do already You should also consider how would an Off-Topic board without anime look like. It would be boring if we separate anime from it with an /a/ board
>>63685>>63688Yeah, besides, creating boards that aren't really needed or wanted ends up with them just having no activity after a while (/jp/ is a dead board right now, no idea what was kaguya thinking, nobody asked for a japanese language board)
>>63689>(/jp/ is a dead board right now, no idea what was kaguya thinking, nobody asked for a japanese language board)Remember that Nihongoch died for this
>>63689We had one back in 2020, and there was a small demand for it... but even back then it was practically abandoned after the first 2-3 days I think the main issue is that we don't have many fluent Japanese speakers or serious Japanese learners, so we can't drum up activity ourselves. The only alternative is to go around advertising on Japanese sites to pull in native speakers, but they have no real reason to come here unless they want to interact with foreigners b0rking up their languaging and joking around, which is probably fun for about 5 minutes>>63690At the very least, Heyuri/jp/ is about as active as nihongoch was
>>63671Considering we're buddies with wapchan again, maybe we should just use their anime boards? They have a dedicated 2000s anime board that fits in with heyuri's theme.
>They have a dedicated 2000s anime board that fits in with heyuri's themeIt was us who suggested it to them after all...
>>63689>>63691Finding Japanese learners is harder than u would expect.. The biggest online community I could find is on Reddit, but I think I got shadowbanned there - the post I made got filtered immediately, despite asking permission from their mods beforehand Finding Japanese people is considerably easier, there are some sites dedicated for Japanese people to read what foreigners (all-nationz, kaikaich etc)
>>63692DQOP (don't quote opening post)
>>63732Don't force a meme about not quoting the OP while you yourself are also making posts that quote the OP on /b/
