So in another topic someone said im a newfag to anime, because i talk about the most mainstream anime Frieren a lot and listed off the most mainstream anime as something right wing normies would like, and then said that to know who are the more experianced anime fans you need to ask them what the mid anime are that nobody else really knows about and he listed of Buso Renkin.
Little did he know ,i've read the Buso Renkin manga decades ago.
So how many people here are "elite otakus" that have seen the anime, watched the manga or even heard of Buso Renkin since apparently its now a metric for "elite otaku" status?.
if anyone wants to question my otaku credentials more, I'd also like to list off another obscure manga called "Hoshin Engi" that i read which that most people probably haven't heard of. Hoshin Engi is pretty popular in Japan but not well known in the West,
I've been watching/reading anime and manga since 20 years ago, im not a newfag to it
Worrying about being perceived as some oldfag otaku is pointless, especially once you realize how shit/autistic most any /a/-type community's (or really any anime community's) tastes are.
Once you get past their facade/circlejerk, you realize they're just as shallow as any other anime fan, and often miserable and jaded on top of that.
Just like what you like and fuck whatever some annoying fag on the internet tells you you should like.
