    I'm currently reading Yumekui Merry and Railgun. It's just too bad translations are slow as hell for the former.

    Why's that?

    Apparently this is a thing

    No, that's just bullshit through and through. Moe has always been a thing, generic or not. Even back in the 90s, where it was perceived prevalent enough (along with the mecha genre, ironically) that people complained about there being too much moe and that the 80s were better. It's been as popular as it's always been, no more and no less. It's rather telling that despite the amount of new series produced within the last six years, the only slice of lifes that are "moe" which can be named with any consistency are K-ON and Lucky Star. You'd be lucky to see people claiming modern anime is primarily cute schoolgirls be able to name even things like Hidamari Sketch, much less a moe slice of life that's currently airing. Can't help it, it's true. Almost all dubs are awful, and the ones that are worth watching should still be watched alongside the original audio. Why the hell would I give up being able to listen to Wakamoto or Sugita in favor of hearing Johnny Yong Bosch in every damn series? Also, streaming is terrible and there's basically no excuse for not just downloading anime off of Nyaa or an equivalent site.

    Why not? Because you can pretty much assume that most people read the Big Three, and discussion revolving around them generally sucks. Especially Naruto.

    Most dubs, the mentality that the 90s was the golden age of anime and that everything released in modern times is K-ON and Lucky Star, people who stream their anime instead of downloading it, and other such shit. As for actual series I think are bad, I could go on and on.

    Also, am I the only guy here who's watching series that are currently airing?

    It's pretty much the case for anything adapted by JC Staff. Kind of like Tsukihime.

    I thought Corv was a maid.

    What happened to the old one?

    I have a new one, not a huge loss other than my lack of stars or rep.

    No. Respectless Rubber Glove, it was my first hat drop. Corv. Pretty much everyone in this thread other than Verumae, and all of the itsurblog regulars. Pretty cool, but SPUF has pretty poor taste in anime other than a few certain individuals. Blue.

    I was hoping everyone would already know me. ;_; You mean like that SPUF fanfic I haven't written a second chapter for?

    So I walk into the last page of what is apparently subSPUF's anime general and this is more or less the first thing I see. I'd kind of just like to say that you're basically supposed to pretend the anime for Index doesn't exist, and that you're doing it wrong if you're watching the anime. It's a terrible adaptation of a decent light novel for which I could go on and on about how they managed to take a good source material and butcher it. A source material which is also fully translated on Baka-Tsuki. Same shit goes for Railgun, which is adapted even worse.
