I'm British so my reaction on the day was 'Oh' then i went on with my day

>>54534873

Exactly this

I don't watch anime in the first place

I didn't watch anime in grade school.

Stuff like Pokemon doesn't count.

>>54534814
Yes. A DBZ rerun was interrupted because of the news report on the attacks.

when i watched tv that day,i thought-"Fuck yea,finally"

>>54534814
Not living in the US, so it took a while to reach us.
Also highschool, but that same year I watched NGE.

>>54534814
No. I was in middle school and there wasn't anything good on anyway.

>>54534963

>that feel when DBZ on Telemundo that morning that pre-empted

CCS. I was pissed.

I don't remember, maybe DBZ?

I didn't even watch anime back then, so no. And I was in high school, so I didn't have any cartoons that I watched that were interrupted.

I don't even remember, did 9/11 disrupt Toonami?

So, you think there will be another attack later today or a not?

>>54534991
What? I live on the other side of the world, and it got here instantly. What shithole do you come from?

I was still only watching Yu-Gi-Oh at the time, and no, it didn't. The clips on the news were funny though

>mfw /a/ is severely younger than I

I was 23 then. I was going to watch an episode of Crest of the Stars when I got a call about it. So yeah.

I was in Middle School and from Hueco mundo, while the news was in most TV channels the entertainment ones just kept airing chinese cartoons as usual.

>>54534814
no, because I'm not American and was in school.

I was coming in from morning marching band practice in 10th grade when I watched the second plane hit the South Tower live. Wasn't watching anime back then. In fact, I wouldn't get into anime for another 4 years.

No, but i was waking up to the radio that morning, and i heard them say a plane crashed into the 1st building. I didn't think much of it, thought it was a cesna or something, but out of curiosity i went and turned on the TV. It was pretty fucked up, but then as they were reporting, i saw the 2nd plane smash into the 2nd tower Live. It was a pretty big WAT moment.

>>54535132
I hear you man i mean i was in middle school myself but from soul soceity they just cut the day and sent us home

Those towers took alot of reaitsu to build such a shame.

It happened at 9 am.

I was 11 years old.

No.

I was in kindergarten so I don't remember.

I wasn't into anime back then, but since I'm an Eurofag I don't think it'd have stopped me.

>>54535272

underage.

>>54535272
You must be 18 or older to browse this site. Discontinue browsing immediately.

I wasn't an anime fan back then (I watched Pokemon and DBZ but still)

nope.
I'm not american and still don't give a shit about what happened back then

I was in 5th grade and I saw the planes hit live on tv as my dad didn't take us to school on time that day for some reason.

Didn't think much about it at the time as teachers didn't make a big deal in front of us. It wasnt until I got home that I realize shit got real. But I dont remeber it fucking with toonami

oldfag reporting

I had broke up with my girlfriend of three years the night before 9/11 occurred and had already planned on not spending the day watching anime or playing video games, but getting out to meet new people and fix neglected friendships.

I just didnt give a shit i was a kid too young to care and wanted to watch my cartoons, now 10 years on i still dont give much of a shit any loss of life is wrong but to think this was down unprovoked without reason or because they hate your freedom is just fucking stupid.

America has done shit in the past to warrant these attacks, i mean shit from the other side america seems like a fucking scary enemy. Most nukes in the world has bases over the entire world and can go to war regadless of what the population thinks.

Shits scary in someways.

But overall i didnt care alot. Im from ireland btw so maybe thats got something to do with it.

>>54535078
By us I don't mean the country, buddy.

>>54535319
I think you're the only one I know (not really) that was truly hurt in the whole thing. Sorry about everything.


Everyone in Australia doesn't give a shit, though.

I didnt watch pokemon that day because my mom was having a panic attack(OMG WW3 WILL HAPPEN)

coincidentally I was in japan at the time. big typhoon going on so school was out, and of course it was about 10 at night, and I didn't really watch nighttime anime.

>>54535367
>unprovoked without reason

you must be 12.

>>54534873
this! all the fucking USA could burn in a fire and I will still not give a single fuck.

No. I was nine years old and British. When I got home from school and my mum told me about it I thought "Oh. That's sad. I feel bad for them, I guess".
Then I watched Cartoon Network.

>>54535367
>America has done shit in the past to warrant these attacks, i mean shit from the other side america seems like a fucking scary enemy. Most nukes in the world has bases over the entire world and can go to war regadless of what the population thinks.

so you think it made sense to kill random members of the population, then.

And in the process start a new era of a American foreign intervention

In 2001 I wasn't really watching anime past the stuff I could borrow from friends or was on tv.

I hated 9/11 though, I wish I had stayed home from school that day, for some reason all my teachers were making us watch the news and saying stuff like this is a critical moment in history that you should remember forever. Most of the damn news for the day was just showing the damn planes crashing over and over with different people talking.

>>54535424
My mom came to pick my sis and me from middle school as usual, and still remember her comment; "Some guy just crashed two planes in the WTC in NY, it's one of those who wear towels on their heads"

>What the fuck are the twin towers? Oh, wait I remember those towers. I would see them on the opening intro in the critic.

DBZ was airing at a german tv station at that time in the evening. It was cancelled for a special report about 9/11. I remember i didnt give a fuck about it and was angry because it was one of those really important episodes of DBZ that cancelled that time. I still remember that now while im 20.

Fuck, all these threads have me down to fucking tears.

I wasn't big into anime back then; it wasn't until my college years did I get into anime.

>>54535446
It must suck to be our bitch, yes?

Yes, it caused Gundam 0079 to be taken off the air and I was upset.

>>54534814
I had class, so i wouldn't have been able to watch any anyway. Intro to philosophy, calculus, and I can't remember the rest. I found out between the first two classes when i went to hang our with some friends to kill time.

>>54535443
>>54535443
>>54535443
Yeah dude read the rest

>head of the school comes on over the intercom and tells everyone to turn on the news
>see a building I've never seen before with smoke coming out of it
>sound is off, no subtitles
>head of the school comes on and tells everyone to turn the TVs off and sit in the dark not doing anything for the next hour
>we do
>go home
>parents don't explain shit because they're so upset about it

I wasn't much into animu at the time.
It only distracted me for a few seconds for mom to point that shit out on the tv, for me to go "Oh." and go back to replaying old dos vidya.

>>54535527
It could happen in fucking Manchester and I still would give a single fuck. I didn't give a fuck about 7/7 either.

>>54535561
He's saying that "unprovoked" already means "without reason", so there's no point to word it like that.

>>54534814
When I saw the attacks I thought "disasters happen across the world; why should the US be special" and completely underestimated what their consequences would be.

uh, nope, why should it?
When a friend told me to turn on the tv i was merely like "Oh, okay....so what?" i decided to watch the news for a few minutes
to just get bored and then i got on my computer again

i never understood americas problem wiht this, so a few thousand(or was it hundreads?) people died, so what? Do you know how many people die EACH DAY due to accidents and natural causes?

>>54535534

THIS.

>>54535443
>>54535466
Well maybe if we didn't enter into the gulf derp to stop saddam( WHOM WE FUNDED) then maybe we wouldn't have pissed off the extremists, not saying what they did was right but i wouldn't touch irrational people like that with a ten foot pole.

>>54535466
>>54535466
No its never right to kill anyone despite for a few select situations.

From a military business standpoint its basically fuck yeah this is awesome because the war on terror can never really be won.

I mean, I know /a/ is desensitized a bit, but really. Do you guys have such little respect for life?

>>54535710
People on /a/ talk about killing themselves all the time. If they can't respect their own life, you can only imagine their respect for others.

>>54535710
I don't really care about your sister or your father. Why should I? It didn't affect me in any way.

I was sad for the loss of life, and the deliberate killing of thousands of people. It pains me to see that many people here and in the read world are so animalistic and unintelligent. Someday they will evolve to the level of the rest of us and see how tragic terrorist attacks, war, and natural disasters can be.

>>54535629
Then my mistake is late here but thats a pussy excuse if never noticed it was incorrect to say that.

The more you know i guess

I only watched anime on Saturday back then, so no

>>54535768
You are failed human being if you can't empathize with others. No wonder you are here.

>>54535686
Actually i take that back, i didn't fund saddam, the state did.
Also for the US being so rational, killing over 100k innocent people over the last decade overseas just to find and kill 1 man. Further showing that might doesn't make right.

>>54535768

That is the very reason as to why you're most likely alone right now; with no one around.

Protip: The "I'll act like a badass and not give a fuck about people and fuck bitches" only works in shitty movies.

If this haooened anywhere else in the world there wouldnt of been such a big song and dancw but because it was america its different.

It was like getting kicked in the balls and trying to save face as you fall to your knees

I didn't watch anime back then.
I sort of quit anime between whenever Sailor Moon aired on Cartoon Network and my late teens.

High School in U.S.. I was in French class. I remember the teacher turning on the TV to show us, and then turning it off like 5 minutes later because some parents were calling to make sure their kids weren't watching. What the fuck? It was history on fucking TV, and peoples parents were like "no you're not allowed to see history." Just be ready to read it in a history book a few years from now, WHEN we decide it's ok for you to watch it.

High school for fucks sake. Middle school I MIGHT see, elementary school FINE, but HS? Cmon. 50% of the school could be fighting in the resulting war in just TWO YEARS (IF that), and they can't watch a couple buildings fall down?

Anyway, not anime, and neither is this thread. Yeah I didn't watch anime that day, so what? Also, holy shit my captcha is freaky. If it was a conspiracy, the government probably did it for the oil for the economy right? Plus I was in French class, and that definitely means economy in french.. it's proof I tell you!

>>54535824
>bawwww
Sure it's sad and sucks, but people die around the world every fucking second.

>>54535710
you must be fucking new.

>>54535903
That is the correct way.

>>54535924
I was in high school French class too.

>>54535824
I tried that once. Shit's terrible, all it does is make you sad. Why would I want to be sad?

>You are failed human being
I don't think I even want to be a human being, so I'm fine with that.

>>54535875
>That is the very reason as to why you're most likely alone right now; with no one around.
No, that's because I was forced to move because of the recession.


Also, to answer OPs question, the only anime I watched at the time was Doraemon and Kochikame. Doraemon aired at 9AM, so I had already seen it, and I missed Kochikame because I was staying at my grandmother's house that day.

> When the September 11th attacks occurred, the series was almost over (there were only six episodes left). Immediately following the attacks, Cartoon Network and many other stations, began pulling war-themed content and violent programming as well. However, the series finale were shown as part of Toonami's "New Year's Eve-il" special on December 31, 2001. It is sometimes stated that MSG was cancelled "because" of the September 11, 2001 attacks. This was verified by a Toonami producer in a March 4, 2002 interview with Anime News Network.

>gundamn

>>54535217
I wasn't in anime back then, too. A lot of friends at that time complained about a DBZ episode being cut off by the news, but I didn't care. I was at school, and thought all those chinese cartoon fans were so childish, while portraying myself as someone mature.
Now it's just the other way around. Oh, well.

>>54535924
Forgot to post captcha image, durp.

>>54535952
I agree. I passed over the period in which I would have been a raving shounen fanboy.

Also, watchin Eva at 16 after being completely unfamiliar with anime for several years was quite a shock to the brain.

I did not watch anime when I was in college.

I was 11, I hadn't even realized Sailor Moon came from Japan by then.

>>54535710
Shit sucks for them. But am I going to beat myself over people I never knew and had nothing to do with? Fuck no.

If people did that everyone would be drowning in despair and sorrow, every second of every day till everyone imploded from the exponentially growing sadness.

>>54534814
I ran home from school to watch Pokemon.
But those god damn bombings over 10,000 miles away somehow caused the cancellation of the episode that day.
Yes, I mad.

>>54535217
>marching band
Shit, what did you play?

I marched sax for all four years in highschool, and for one year in college.

Nope. I dunno if I watched anime or not. It was 10 years ago. During that time I didn't have my own internet. Local TV anime sucks during that time.

>>54535875
>That is the very reason as to why you're most likely alone right now; with no one around.
and?

Mexifag here. I was in elementary school at that time, I didn't even know what was a world trade center.

>>54535875
Get real. It's probably because he's ugly.
When you're handsome it's practically impossible to be alone.

>>54534873
Canadian here. I was like "Oh, that sucks" and went back to playing Super Nintendo whilst my parents and every other melodramatic fuck in the world bawled their eyes out.

>>54536183
>When you're handsome it's practically impossible to be alone.
Nah, it's actually easy. Just act like you're a weirdo, people usually keep away.

>>54536061
>hadn't even realized Sailor Moon came from Japan by then.

And look how far you've progressed!
You still write like an 11 year old.

Children dying of hunger every single fuckingn day

No fucks given

Two buildings are destroyed and 3000 people die

World throws a fucking fit

War is declared more civillians die more enemies are created more laws are passed.

Mission acomplished my fucking hole

I continue to not give a shit about 9/11 to this very day.

>that feel when I'm getting up early tomorrow and keeping the news on all day in case I get the chance to see some shit go down live

I was 11 on 9/11 and didn't get the chance to see it actually happen.

>>54535710

I don't care because I don't know anyone who was involved in the incident. Sure it was tragic, but people are completely blowing this out of proportion.

>your face when this site

http://muslimsagainstcrusades.com/

Oh muslims, you so crazy

That feel when yoh thinks thees still something dodgy about 9/11 we dont know.

I was in the 3rd grade, and all my shows were on.

>>54536289
But nobody cares about african children dying

I was in school at the time.
I live in NY and saw the damn thing from my classroom. My teacher was shocked as the rest of us was just wondering what was going on.
Then i was walked home by my father who was covered in soot. My father worked right next to the damn building. had the tower somehow fell over, he would have died...

I lived 3 blocks from there when it happened.

Believe it or not, I was more preoccupied on covering all my electronic shit from the dust than anything else.

>>54536502
Nah, it was terrorists being terrorists. Middle East always has and always will be unstable as fuck, USA shouldn't have gotten involved. "Let sleeping dogs lie."

I remember staying at my great aunt's house and coming back from Primary School when it was on BBC news.

OP, thanks for reminding me that I need to continue my tradition of telling people "Happy 9/11" on Omegle.

I got into anime in 2007...
But if I actually did watch anime back then it probably wouldn't have affected me. It's funny how American's keep treating 9/11 as if it's the worst thing that ever happened. Since that day at least 10 catastrophes with a lot more casualties have happened. As usual America doesn't give a shit unless they are the victims.

when it happened i was at school but when i got home they were showing footage and talking about it on almost every network and i didnt have cable at the time. i just wanted to watch some yugioh but terrorists had to fuck that up for me.

>>54536756
>implying anyone else does either

>People whining that others are insensitive for no longer being upset over 9/11

What was that about summer being over?

>>54536756
>It's funny how American's keep treating 9/11 as if it's the worst thing that ever happened

It's funny how Eurofags keep saying that, but I don't really see any evidence of it.

NYC here, I was 10 years old. I looked outside my schools window and saw a plane fly into the buildings.

In all honesty it looked really fuckin awesome.

>>54535534

DE TURK AR GERDEMS

>>54536756

Is it wrong for the residents of a country to commemorate a momentous event that happened within that country, and in quite raw recent living memory too?

Okay guys get this what if


Okay you listening


What if


Guys you listening


Guys


GUYS.


What if

9/11 happened again would it be called 9/11 2

I actually remember that day pretty well.I was about 12 and I was watching sailor moon (I was deeply in love with Tuxedo Mask at the time). It was interrupted and I was fucking pissed off like never before.( tuxedo mask was probably on the screen, I don't know). Then my father said something that could be translated to english like: "oh, fuck yea!" . And then we all watched and cheered like: "fall you tower! yaay!". It was considered family fun. My father really hates usa. But then later, sailor moon continued and it was all good. It was a fun day.

>>54534814
Nothing can stop me from watching my anime. A huge terrorist attack happened a state or two away with me? Let me finish the episode I'm on, then I'll skim a short article about it.

>>54536855
Thats some bullshit you spewing son

>>54536900


>raw recent

It has been ten fucking years. Get over it.

>>54536941
Sounds like you and your family have some problems. I don't know anyone who would cheer when thousands of people die.

it didnt stop me from doing anything, well maybe decent flights.

>>54536971
>Thats some bullshit you spewing son

Thats some bullshit you spewing son

>>54534873
Pretty much this, only other nationality.

Seriously, the US can go fuck themselves.
