Has anyone else found themselves consume a lot less new anime/manga lately almost to the point where you might find it hard to enjoy?
Maybe some of you have different reasons, but for me its because of what's happening to anime in this decade. How it had a mainstream boom during the pandemic that has only gotten bigger with things like Umamusume and even One Piece having a collab with a fast food chicken chain in America. Nothing is wrong with those things, but its rather about the kind of people that have been introduced into the medium in recent years. Just really weird fucking people. Not even explicitly loliniggers or normies but people who are extremely socially inept, aggressive, and maybe even mentally retarded. It saddens me how much anime has garnered a reputation as mainstream goyslop when in the old days it was a curated niche for the small amount of westerners that knew how to access it. Hell, most western anime viewers watched the toonami block on adult swim every weekend and whatever was on the schedule that night was what was discussed on anime forums and 4chan the next day. It was a simpler time and everybody was friends. There wasn't any bitterness, shitflinging, or harassment like there is now.
I feel alienated as someone who experienced the glory days of anime culture in the west. When someone irl asks me if I like X anime, I pretend like I don't know what that is or that I don't watch anime. My favorites like CLANNAD are fiercely gatekept for good reason because they're the last bastions of old anime culture in the west. I'd be devastated if it suffered the same fate as Azumanga Daioh because it has a very special place in my heart.

I think VNs and by extension VN-based anime like CLANNAD are safe from becoming mainstream at least for the next 10-or-so years, assuming anime keeps its Western popularity (it probably won't)

I found myself to watch less and less anime when I was like 16. I don't find most animes to be that good tbh. Even the ones which receive huge support tend to be just good, not that spectacular. When I watched AOT I enjoyed it, it was a good story, but that ending was shit and it felt like the entire last part of the show was trying to make Eren as edgy as possible to gain the interest of 14 year old jeets and retards who will think this is the best story ever because they love edgy bullshit.
I'll randomly watch a romance anime to get my fix of that sort of story, but otherwise I haven't watched it in a while. If I want to have a complex story, I prefer reading a book, its also better for my brain than watching cartoons for adults but japanese
>Its not cartoons or comics, manga and anime are true art forms !!!
Theres a few gems. But Anime is mostly piles of brimstone and coal that panders to the lowest common denominator, lolipedos and niggers who just want endless violence. Once you've watched all the good animes, of which there must be a max of like 25, you might as well drop the medium unless you want to engage in slop.
Maybe the reason people didn't fight and shitfling then was because they knew they had nobody else. If you argued with the one other person you knew irl that watched anime, there wasn't anybody else to talk to about it, and if you tried to they would tell you to stop watching cartoons. On the 'cuck, people were probably just happy to find a group of others who were interested in anime. Now that every nigga ever has watched at least a couple animes, there is no longer that feeling of exclusivity, and also these niggers will pour into the oldGOD groups and destroy them
