People with taste. Also, K-On! fans.

Wait, K-ON has music ?

YES, MILK THIS FRANCHISE MORE

If I win the lottery then I'm going to by every piece of K-On! goodness I can find so I can support that beautiful series.

Fans who earn a living.

>>37945392
You're seriously asking who buys merchandise for a moe anime?

THE ANSWER IS JAPAN.

Screw the OP/ED/Character CDs. Get the inserts.

DONT SAY LAZY MOTHERFUCKER

Where can i get the New OP and ED in mp3 ? and not Tv version please.

>>37945481
Only K-On! CD I hate.

proo that K-on was created solely to milk the otaku population.

Season 1 ED is best ED

>>37945545

Maddy Candy and LOVE (Death Devil)

are the best ones
prove me wrong

and the ED's are also nice

Those booklets really are nice though.

I have my preorder, so I guess I buy this stuff.

Season 1 ED outfits are so HNNNGHHHHHHHH-

In Club Sega there were always people trying to win the K-on soundtrack in the UFO catchers

any chance i can get Don't Say Lazy this year?

>>37945545
And yet, it's popular with more than just otaku. Bizarre, huh?

I already preordered the new OP and ED.

Awesome. K-ON!! OST Vol. 1 is out on Wednesday.

>>37945654
most shows will sell dvds, maybe a character song series, and possibly a few merch items.

go to akihabara. 70% of the stuff you will see are k-on, lucky star, haruhi, or bakemonogatari. i think that says something about the extent to which "trying to make money" goes.

Such as more casual anime fans and probably some people that don't watch anime normally as they are not faggots? You can't get the sales K-On! got with just hardcore otaku.

>>37945730
That's called capitalizing on a show's popularity and says nothing about the show itself. That just says that the producing company of K-On! thought "Fuck, this show is a clear cash-cow. Let's make tons of merchandise to make as much money out of it as we can".

WHAT I'VE FELT, WHAT I'VE KNOW
TURN THE PAGES, TURN TO STONE

>>37945786

Heh well my friends did a lot better. Got a bunch of dakimuras for 1000

>>37945850
so people who are casuals and don't watch anime very much spend money on anime merch?

>producing company of K-On! thought "Fuck, this show is a clear cash-cow. Let's make tons of merchandise to make as much money out of it as we can".
yeah that's pretty much what i'm saying.

>>37945730

Wait...you meant to tell me that the more popular the series is, the more merchandise it sells?

I like you, Yutanpo, but you can be a right fucktard sometimes. Don't make me block you, I really don't want to.

http://www.myspace.com/yutanpo

>>37945893
Just because the producing company is making merchandise that panders to otaku doesn't mean that the show itself is pandering to otaku.

God, you're just butthurt that HS isn't as popular, aren't you? Or is it GA? Both? Whatever.

>>37946052
HNNNNNNNNNNGH-

>>37945654

>>37945893

No, that isn't what you said.

You said that K-ON was made *solely* to milk the Otaku market. It being a cash cow after the fact is irrelevant. Everything is sold to make money.

You are saying the integrity that goes into K-ON is somehow less then other shows because it's more popular. That is butthurt hipster faggotry.

I know you wouldn't say the same shit if Aria or Hidiamri Sketch were in the same position. And nevermind the fact they do do the same thing but just aren't as popular as K-ON for it to work as well.

That's nothing OP, people buy any product that featured in K-ON! at any point - instruments, headphones (multiple pairs, and they were fucking expensive).

Most bro tripfags tend to ignore people who dislike them for whatever reason. The fact that you remembered that Anon, took the time to yell at him (in the most whiny way possible) and explain yourself doesn't really leave a good impression of yourself now does it?

>>37946147
see comment above about season 2. plus, even the first season seeing as how it's kyoani i wouldn't be surprised.
some shows WERE made just to sell, for instance lucky star. again it's a part of capitalism to see what is potentially sellable, and then make it super sellable. (does the lucky star manga contain all those haruhi references? haven't read em so idk)

i wish hs and ga had more merch..

>>37946048
not so much cause they're popular, but because the extent to which they take things beyond that popularity and make it unbearable (l actually enjoyed season 1 of K-on, but now I actually dislike the whole series)

also, sounds like the problem with this yotsuba guy is that he'll take up a serious tone and try to argue with everyone whenever anyone says something that's not to his liking.
does he post normally at all?

>>37947084
See: >>37946319

It's pretty much "THEY DON'T LIKE WHAT I LIKE ;_;"

>>37947084
You know, for the sake of Yotsuba C's mental health, I do hope he posts anonymously like a regular lurker.

I think he posts with a trip when situations call for it, because he probably thinks acting like a massive faggot with a trip earns him street creds or something retarded like that.

>>37946958

What the hell are you talking about?

Sure, like Wikipedia you should check sources, but the have a lot of news you wouldn't read anywhere else.

>>37947162

> I bet you only watch Fox News and believe any shit Glenn Beck shovels down your throat.

Nice assumption that I'm American. Its just that kind of dumb, oversimplification that attracts you to Sankaku, right?

Most of their "news" seems to just be gathered from browsing 2chan/2ch and a handful of Moon blogs. You could just go straight to the source.

>>37947047

>see comment above about season 2. plus, even the first season seeing as how it's kyoani i wouldn't be surprised.

K-ON got a second season because it sold well. I didn't realize this constitutes "pandering" on any other level than what is common within the industry. Shows that do well keep going. That is how it works.

>some shows WERE made just to sell, for instance lucky star. again it's a part of capitalism to see what is potentially sellable, and then make it super sellable. (does the lucky star manga contain all those haruhi references? haven't read em so idk)

No. None of this--whatever you're trying to say--justifies the garbage you said earlier and what I've seen you post plenty times in K-ON threads. Everything you post about K-ON always reeks of butthurt.

>>37947084

What does that even mean? You are in absolutely no position to talk about my posting.

>>37947143

>implying i care about any of that

HAHA No.

Don't get me wrong, it's interesting, whether or no it's true is another thing. - Al Jazeera's what I watch for proper news.

That's more than you can say for most people here especially many tripfags who choose not to step on everyones toes so people will like them or simply troll for the sake of it so everyone can hate them.

>>37947977
>I post strongly about the things that I actually believe, offer counterpoitns to plenty oft he bullshit that surrounds this subculture
I think you need to figure out at what times those are appropriate and when they are not.
what you think is "contribution" might not always be the case. in certain threads, a troll post or just going with the faggotry is more of a contribution than a well thought out argument.

>>37947977

>It isn't about reputation for me. I don't actually care

>6. Get tired and call it a day.
>7. Repeat step 1.

>>37948038
Agreed.

That argument would strongly favor someone that's posting anonymously, if you're not interested in building reputation.

Go look Yotsuba up on Green Oval.

Most of his posts are some "U MAD" bullshit that he enjoys doing. Others are his strongly worded opinions that most of us don't give two shits about.

Best contributing tripfag ever.

If someone gets butthurt because they actually a name tripcode to direct their hate at its pathetic. Case in point the guy who think it's witty to screencap my posts. Those are the people you only feel delighted in pissing off. It's only amusing.

>in certain threads, a troll post or just going with the faggotry is more of a contribution than a well thought out argument.

Except I do that all the time. Some days I don't feel like it. Sometimes I do.

>>37948120

Except I do. Because I actually do my own research rather than depending on what the idiots on ANN and by extension /a/ tell me. Pic related. I have all the anime of the last few decades in a spreadsheet including important things about them such as length and date. Not to mention everything charted on Oricon in the last decade.

I read the history and actually look up the facts before saying shit.

>>37947977
>I post strongly about the things that I actually believe

Opinions aren't contributions. Fuck off.

> offer counterpoitns to plenty oft he bullshit that surrounds this subculture

see: opinions

>That's more than you can say for most people here especially many tripfags who choose not to step on everyones toes so people will like them or simply troll for the sake of it so everyone can hate them.

Just giving you a little tip, you can have civil discussions on things you don't agree on without being a whiny little bitch. Also, this shows that you clearly do care about your reputation as a tripfag, since you're so keen to compare yourselves to others.

Fuck off, Yotsuba. At least admit that you're attention whoring.

>>37948234

U mad?

Do you think the average Anonymous' post history would actually look any better? lolno.

>>37948460

All I see are information that you can easily find by running a title through a search engine.

>>37948527
Trust me, way better than yours.

>>37948460
>I have all the anime of the last few decades in a spreadsheet including important things about them such as length and date.

Hey, retard. How is knowing obvious information about the series supposed to help discussions at all?

Yotsuba, did you use to be 魔女ッ子taku? Just something I've been wondering.

Any tripfag who tries to explain their posting style as a 'contribution to the board' is both an idiot and completely full of themselves. Even dumping manga is grounds for a tripcode in some cases, because then when people like your taste they know that they should pop into your dump threads more often. Thinking you have great opinions just means that you're going to post to hear yourself talk, and no one's going to like you for it. At least people like holic admit that they aren't contributing anything of value. That's right Yotsuba, you're less than holic in my eyes, since at least he can be honest about it.

I remember when Yutanpo went to Comiket and post some stuffs for us. Man, such a contributing tripbro. And he has a good anime taste too and is actually goes to Japan so he knows what he's saying.

Unlike Yotsuba.

>>37948712
>>37948653

>doesn't understand at all.

Having these things are useful especially for keeping history intact in the face of nostalgiafag history revisionists here. Pic related. It's the (slightly incorrect) chart detailing the anime released since 1983.

You can't do that by simply looking them up online. That needs to be in a spreadsheet to easily calculate and compare.

Yotsuba C.

1. All the information you have on your chart is easily found.
2. Your research is POINTLESS. "Oh, so that's when the anime came out and that's how long it lasted." Am I the only person that thinks this is retarded and accomplishes absolutely NOTHING?
3. You really don't contribute. Bitching about how people don't like the shit you like is, in one way or another, whining about /a/'s userbase.

You're making yourself look like an idiot.

>>37948714

Despite the occasional shitposting and associated faggotry, this is why he's a good tripfag.

>>37948941
Agreed. Anyone who is getting over tripfags are newfags, seriously. Long time users take it with a grain of salt or just ignores them.

>>37948879
More and more anime seriers are produced as time goes by. Big. Fucking Whoop.

It doesn't help ANY sort of discussions in ANY sorts of contexts. Nostalgiafags are talking about the quality of anime, not how many were produced at which time.

Again, your research is fucking pointless. If some nostalgiafag anon argues that Kodomo no Omocha was a great series, looking when the anime was made and seeing how it lasted TELLS ME NOTHING.

Stop it Yotsuba. Yutanpo has been in Japan, he knows what he's talking about unlike you who don't know shit what you're talking about.

>>37948879
I think you're missing the point. Having a chart that helps you win arguments on /a/ isn't contributing. Not perpetuating stupid argument threads and posting content or taking part in discussions that are going somewhere other than trollbait would be a vast improvement. That's like saying "I made 100 new trollface.jpg and U MAD reaction images, I contribute so much to /a/."

God dammit, can a mod PLEASE accept my one wish and ban this shitty tripfag.

GoodFUCKINGJob

What's happening to Yotsuba C is quite obvious.

When teenagers enter their puberty phase, they start feeling this need to belong. Yotsuba C, being the massive faggot he most likely is in real life, chose to come to the internet to fulfill this need.

By asserting his pointless opinions, he acquires this sense of belonging in this image board. Why? People are responding to him. He has created this warped reality in which he believes he's contributing in /a/, and that people appreciate him for it.

Pointless research to make himself feel more important is an obvious evidence for his case. It makes him feel secure and safe. It ensures him that, despite how irrelevant his research to his strongly asserted opinions, his statment will hold more validity because there is some degree of (irrelevant) research behind it.

Yotsuba, I would like to inform you that this board is for people over the age of 18. I believe Gaia is more suited for what you're looking for. It's a great open community and it has lots of discussions that you can partake in. I'm not making this suggestion to hurt you. Not at all. I'm actually trying to help you by offering the option that's in your best interest.

It's not that difficult to understand. You are just trying to make me feel bad for my research. Haters gonna hate.

Yes, this is significant. Not just for now, but the future and future anime fans. Nostalgiafags attempt to distort history. And this isn't just about statistics here. I've seen plenty of the shitty and mediocre anime nostalgiafags like to talk up. I give a better view on this.

>>37949002

>Not perpetuating stupid argument threads and posting content or taking part in discussions that are going somewhere other than trollbait would be a vast improvement.

Maybe you should ask everyone else to do that first.

>>37949091

lolno. That's not how it works.

You're the one with the namefield that follows you. By making that choice, you either need to stop shitposting or realize that people are going to treat you like a shitposting fuckstick and just get used to it instead of feebly defending yourself.

>more anime = more money = more potentially good projects come into realization

that's how it works, get over it manchild

Yotsuba, why do you always think that you're always right and everyone that's trying to argue with you are always wrong even though they are mostly right?

Have you ever admitted that you're wrong in an argument and that you're not the GOD who's always right and is pretty much flawless?

>>37949459

More Money != Creative Talents

Get it through your thick retarded skull.

>>37949480
more money = more freedom for creative talents

see studio 4c works that don't even sell. bye.

It's not necessarily about old vs. new. It's about the shitty, blatantly nostalgia-fueled arguments that occur. People who speak up on it but haven't actually educated themselves are a problem. I want a situation here people can be free from all of this garbage. People need to be educated on both sides. It starts with the facts and goes from there. This is why statistics are important.

>>37949529
Refer to the post above you and try again.

>>37949544
Statistics don't help AT ALL.

It won't help you determine the quality of anime in question, nor will it objectively define how "good" a series was.

Fuck off.

>>37949559
mentally filtered it after reading few words of that garbage so I won't even bother

>>37949622
lol ok

More money = I could kill each and every one of you.

>>37949544
Naw, it's about you learning how the board culture works, and not turning nostalgia threads into your personal playground just because you disagree with them. If you can't find a thread that you aren't tempted to shit in, make one of your own for fucks sake.

>>37949544
ultimately you're trying to argue with people over their tastes, which is always a practice in futility. likewise, facts aren't gonna change people's tastes.
also, you're compiling all this "info" about anime, but isn't what matters the actual content of the anime? if you've watched all those, good for you. but if you just have a bunch of numbers, what good is that gonna do?

>>37949645
Don't bother. It's the same "THEY DON'T LIKE WHAT I LIKE ;_;" bullshit all over again.

>By making that choice, you either need to stop shitposting or realize that people are going to treat you like a shitposting fuckstick and just get used to it instead of feebly defending yourself.

HAHA didn't you already read my post? I don't care. I find it amusing. I'm not changing for anyone. I'm just being my online self.

>>37949349

No, you're an idiot.

If there's 20% anime being made each year that are actually good out of the whole. 20% out of 50 is less than out of 200. Do you not understand basic math?

>>37949473
>>37949473
>>37949473

>>37949597

True.. One thing's for certain is that all are opinions will determine the quality..

It's just who flings a shit or is butthurt too much about something.

People with the same opinions share and gather. Any person who wants to disagree can disagree in such a manner that is not abrasive on an internet level. Too bad that doesn't happen here.

People who dislike stuff always tend to deliver their opinions to stir a shitstorm as hard as possible.

Just my 2 cents..

>>37949672

Holy fucking shit, are you retarded.

You can't apply the "there will be at least __ percent shows that will be good" nonsense to this. Theoretical statistical arguments are something you put to use in AP Stats course or some intro level Stats course you take in college.

I'm starting to think that you've never taken statics to begin with, because you're applying it as retardedly as you possibly can.

>>37949672
No, you do care, otherwise you wouldn't still be defending yourself at this point. All this thread is about anymore is how you're a worthless blight on the board. You're part of the reason I always have to drop trip if I come online at this time of day, since you helped poison the entire userbase at this time of day against anyone with anything in their namefield.

>>37949672
That's under the assumption that every year has had the same percentage of shit anime in comparison to decent/good anime. Which again show that your "statistics" are pointless.

The fact that there is more doesn't necessarily mean that there will be more good anime or less good anime. All it means is that there will be more anime and a possible over saturation of anime.

>>37949801

Like I said in this post>>37949473 , he always thinks that he's right.

I wonder why he's not replying to that post of mine? Maybe because he realized that I'm right.

ITT /a/ level nerds rage because yotsuba is more successful than them

>>37949787
In addition to that, we don't even NEED a statistical analysis of the anime series produced. At this point, it's pretty much the consensus of the masses that decide whether a year was good or not that's based on OPINOINS.

ITT

>>37949645

You don't understand. These opinions are only allowed to an extent because the other side aren't in a position to defend it and they've been hearing it and they assume its right even if might not be. It shouldn't work that way. This is what I mean when I say nostalgiafags are distorting history. This is especially true when you consider the amount of information available now versus 15 years ago with the internet. Real history needs to be preserved.

>>37949787
>>37949751

And you think that they stopped trying in 10 years? No, that's not how it works.

Anyway, that's supposed to be an extreme example. Even if the percentage did dip (and it really hasn't), it wouldn't mean less good anime since there's much more anime. 10% of 200 is still more than 20% of 50.

>>37949994
Oh, right. As illustrated in >>37946319

Makes sense.

>>37950037

>>37950037
K-ON SUCKS!

>>37950037
You're missing the fact that there are trends in anime production. If, in my opinion, lolicon and moe fan pandering shows suck, then there definitely isn't 10% of the total that's turning out well lately. If I enjoyed early 90's style action instead, then obviously I'll think quality has dipped lately. You can't fight a battle of tastes based on numbers you chucklefuck.

>>37950143

It all comes down to the opinions you have on the show.

Stop enforcing yours, we're not interested.

>>37950143
Yup Yotsuba, the masses are retarded, you must be the only smart one here. Why don't you tell us which shows we should enjoy, and which we should dislike. Dumb cunt.

>>37950037
Hey Yotsuba, you do know that you're not an almighty being that's always right while everyone else is wrong right? Why do you always act like your opinion is the only one that matters? That you're the only one who's right? Have you ever felt that you're wrong and admitted it?

And why are you not replying to this post >>37949473 ? By that, do you realize that I'm right and you're the wrong one this time?

>>37950037
Nice strawman and complete disregard for what we said. You're either an idiot, a dumbass, a troll or all three wrapped into one. And I think it's the latter.

More anime=/=better anime. Because what is good and what is bad is highly subjective. All more anime means is more anime. Nothing more nothing less, and thus your statistics are completely irrelevant.

>>37950567

It's pretty fun, I do agree.

Did you see him try to make his statements hold more credibility by backing it up with bullshit irrelevant research?

Hilarious.

>implying I'm arguing my tastes > your tastes

Except I'm not arguing that. The problem here is that people's opinions aren't being formed the way they should be. You have to many factors at play here that make it so people don't give real opinions about things. Look at how K-ON is treated. It's loved but is hated as well more than it should be simply because it is a popular slice of life anime and butthurt faggots can't take that so they force a bunch of shit about it. This whole "moe" thing that most of them don't even understand. Everything. It's all bullshit.

>>37950117

No, it is simply a base point. They are facts. Stop being mad.

>>37950182

First off, don't talk to me if you don't understand what moe means. Second, there isn't less action. There is more anime period. These "trends" are exaggerated by butthurt nostalgiafags and 15 year olds who don't know what they're talking about.

Here is another chart detailing mecha anime over the years.

>>37950584

I wonder when Yotsuba will relaize that nobody takes him seriously.

He's just crying for attention at this point. I think he was more entertaining when he spammed "U MAD" images to cover his butthurt.

>>37950625
First, don't use the fact that I said moe as a strawman.
Second, you're calling your view of others' opinions facts? Let me laugh a little harder.
Third, you don't understand the board culture, from your comments about K-On love vs hate.
Fourth, stop strawmanning 'nostalgiafags' since this thread is now about how you never argue anything with substance behind your statements.
Fifth, I doubt you even know what moe is, and that isn't a point that means you automatically 'win' an argument anyway, so shut the hell up about it already.

>>37950899
I'm not using a strawman. I'm using a reductio ad absurdum. Learn the difference. You condemned the masses as being retarded and that their opinions are shit. But the masses love K-on!! So it's either that A) K-on! is shit or B) your argument is a logical fallacy

Protip: the answer is B

Poking at Yotsuba gets old pretty fast. I'm gunna go stalk Smochi or something.

>>37951136
It's not a strawman. Here's what you said:

>Except the masses are completely retarded. They don't know anything and their views aren't based on reality

Which was in response to anon talking about consensus:

>At this point, it's pretty much the consensus of the masses that decide whether a year was good or not that's based on OPINOINS.

Now as you can see, your counter argument to his point was that the masses are retarded and don't know anything and have ill-formed opinions. So by your logic, if the masses are retarded and have ill-formed opinions, then the fact that people K-on! is popular is due to the masses being retarded because as you said, the masses are retarded.

This either means, that your counter argument is stupid or k-on! is popular because the masses are retarded.

Hey Yotsuba, can you read my post? You can? Okay now repeat this sentence:

>>37951430
>Except that you're assuming that I'm saying that just because they're opinions aren't trustworthy that means that they're ALWAYS wrong. No, that isn't what I'm saying. THAT is fallacy.

I knew that you would say something like that. Which leads me to the fallacy in your logic. Which is thus:

For your arugment,
>Except the masses are completely retarded. They don't know anything and their views aren't based on reality
To actually hold any merit along with this,
>Except that you're assuming that I'm saying that just because they're opinions aren't trustworthy that means that they're ALWAYS wrong
The sole designator of that would have to be you. As such, you're making the assumption that the masses are retarded and make ill-formed opinions unless they agree with you.

In other words, you made a blanket statement and now you're trying to pick and choose when that blanket statement holds merit. In other words, your statement at the top only holds merit if it disagrees with your view. Which is a stupid claim and argument.

With that said, it proves my point that you actually have no argument and are just a muppet.

>>37951596

BREAKING NEWS: Yotsuba is a retarded sheep.

Oh wait, we already knew that.

>>37951460
Saw that Redline trailer, wasn't very impressed.

It was tough to keep track of. It kind of reminded me of Transformers really, and how the common complaints was that everything was cluttered together.

Fluidity is nice, but it means nothing if it doesn't tell a story by itself since anime in general lacks expression. What the trailer showed was a cluster fuck of images that make no sense whatsoever. More nauseating than anything, really. Fluid animation is not necessarily good animation. To be honest, the animation was very bad in this one.

Like, an example of good animation is probably something from Avatar the last airbender.

Japanese animators just aren't good enough.

I realize American animations are superior than Japanese animation.

Many American animation got original plots, good animation, fast or normal animation frame, great storyline, and some American animation are memorable even after 30 years.

Japanese animations just got recycled plots, recycle cliches, some anime isn't finish because it's not close to their manga part so that's why some anime series doesn't have much of a plot, soundtracks to many anime series are lame.

Western animation is much better than Eastern. Why? In Eastern animation, when someone is talking, everything moves. Their expressions change, the chin moves as their mouth opens, their hands will move, their head will bob or move around, they'll look around, and their mouth movements match the words they say. In Eastern animation, the only thing that moves is their mouth and it doesn't even fit the dub, Japanese or English.

I could give 100 reasons why Western animation is better, but I think most people can agree with me.

My bet is on /co/. They have the "NEVER GIVE UP, NEVER SURRENDER" policy.

>implying Visitor from /co/, Pestilence, Yotsuba and GlassArrows isn't the same person

Even here you come! Gotta admire that dedication I must admit

I was talking to Yotsuba, not you.

We'll talk to you in a Red Line thread, but this thread isn't.

>pestilence
>yotsuba
>visitor from /co/
>these three in the same thread

I don't know how I should react..
