What did you expected?
Anime and video games gather almost every social outcast

Anime club is fucking tame. My mom is in a quilting circle and its fucking hell. You don't know shit when 60 year olds are acting 16. I've seen too much damn drama. Last meeting, this one lady stormed out because another said "You know no one is listening to you."

The anime club I went to, it was terrible. They fought the whole time if they wanted to watch the show subbed or dubbed. When it was selected, the losing group would make snide remarks. I hated it.

yep yep

my bf's parents go to a country dancing club, and you wouldn't believe the insane drama 50 year olds get up to. I'm talking facebook drama, emails full of spelling mistakes and passive aggressive billboard 'notices'.

Eg. recently a crazy broad is accusing a guy of hitting on her because he said she looks nice. She's been calling his wife like crazy, dissing her out in front of the group and crazy crap like that.

>taking off trip so club members who lurk here wont recognize me.

Mine is infested with...
>freshman art majors who think it's okay to be as obnoxious as possible.
>Guy with tourettes who ALWAYS sits behind me.
>Fedora wearers who think it's okay to commentate over the anime, and will loudly reiterate what they just said if they get no response.

I swear there was this one guy who was a complete hikikomori. He would sit in a chair, plug in his laptop, put headphones on and play a mmorpg. The. whole. damn. time.

Is there a ghibli movie coming out about nerds? I will watch that shit in a heart beat!

Please watch your language.

The non pathetic people will band together and leave the group so they can hang out without being around the scary losers. Look for the ex club members or those who visit but wouldn't stay with that crowd.

Are you fucking serious?
We aren't all lifestyle loli's here you know.

My anime club is actually pretty cool. There's only one girl who wears cat ears and even she is quiet during the screenings. When I went to my first meeting I was expecting the worst, but everyone is pretty chilled out.

>>6927375
I'd watch it to pretend I am "le nerd xD".

Maguma is literally one of the rare male equivalents of a gamer girl. Hats off to you.

At least it wasn't a club full of 2edgy4u FOBs who has no interest in socializing with anyone. They probably scared the weebs off.

Ever watch Genshiken, Azumanga Daioh, or other Slice of Life shows? It'd just be a movie. And it's Studio Ghibli. So obviously it'd be gorgeous.

3/10 I'm actually perplexed.

Can I donate 100$ to you for a picture of you in your underwear, signed + your favorite lipstick kiss on it?

The price is negotiable.

>>6927375
I'm pretty sure that's by a pixiv artist who happens to draw in ghibli style. I saw a photoset floating around on tumblr with his/her other works. Pixiv id is 56487.

I'll consider it. I want the blood of your first born child as well so I may remain immortal after I sacrifice the silicone in Yaya's booth to make my costumes invulnerable to all sorts of mess.

>>6927607
Boo. But that's quite impressive none the less!

>>6927616
> I want the blood of your first born child as well
>just because I'm a woman, I must have children
MISOGYNY!!!!

Men can have children, too. We just don't excrete them from our bodies. Check your privilege!

>>6927632
Stop oppressing her, cis scum

>>6927196 (OP)
op are you in my anime club?

>>6928020
Maybe. My name is Eugene and I'm a ginger. You?

>>6928327
Ginger with old timey name. check

>Yay Genshiken is coming back!
>Oh wait...the manga plot is awkward as fuck these days...

I think this happens because anime and similar fandom is the go to for people who are social outcasts (either by choice, or by being unbearable). It's the one hobby they can have where nearly everyone else is just as socially awkward as them. It's attractive because it's a hobby that involves the least amount of social interaction possible, but also has a community that will embrace your "I'm a kawaiii anime person" special snowflake delusion.

When I started going to uni, I decided to join the anime club because most of the other clubs were either unappealing to me or had huge membership fee's (for things like equipment rentals) that poorfag me couldn't afford. Some of the people in the club were decent but
>leader is an aspie redneck girl who makes godawful cosplay
>75% of the club members are lonely plsdatemepls neckbears
>One awkward couple always making out in the front row of showings
>Non school members were allowed to join so there was a slew of 14 years with kool-aid hair and squeaky voices
>As well as 30+ men looking to get their hands on junior girl puss
>People loudly commentating during anime with unfunny memes
>/b/ tards everywhere

was enough to make me refute my membership pretty early on. It was kind of sad because the anime showings actually featured some great shows and the group even managed to organize Ghibli showings at the local indie theatre.

>obese autist guy playing with his rubik's cube at all times
>smelly pokemon-obsessed lesbo-drama ita
>pretentious fedora guy attending just to befriend weird quirky people to show off to his hipster friends
>edgy scrawny SOL-loving brony going "omg, just like fluttershy! yay~" and "yeah, that's what luna would look like if she were an anime" at every episode
+surprisingly, four normal students

I was weirded out at first but I eventually grew to love the whole group apart from the ita. Real people aren't badly written background characters, they have many sides and often start already growing out of their retarded phases before you even get to know them properly.

I want to go to my uni's anime club this fall because I somehow made it through first year without making any friends.
I'm a bit nervous about not being personable enough, but I guess I really shouldn't be.
