This might be getting into deep territory, but is there a reason SA in the past used to be so vehemently against anime culture, and mocked anyone who enjoyed it?

To be honest it's really hard to watch a lot of RP (not using the name because it's racist as gently caress). It hasn't aged well, and I'm glad slowbeef and Diabetus moved on from it

The tool assisted slow run mario 64 and SMB3 *CENSORED* vids still are great imo.

Two of the best!

They're funny, but it's not so funny when they were making fun of the guy who was doing those fighting game moves and the Haruhi dance for his weight. I also remember one where they made fun of a Brave Fencer Musashi let's play by joking that the LPers were gay

I'm glad SA isn't like it used to be, where you had to pretend to have a raging hate boner for anime, lest you be mocked by everyone else on the forums

Is it weird to pretend an episode, ending or even a sequel didn't happen to a show you loved if you felt it didn't live up to what you expected, or greatly disappointed you?

I think it's better to acknowledge it's existence, in order to analyze/learn from it why those elements are bad/mediocre, then to outright ignore/pretend they didn't happen. Though, there's nothing wrong with exploring alternative endings through fan media: I think some of the most popular genres of fanfiction are just people attempting to give a series what they believe to be a better ending/continuation, or to explore underutilized elements and relationships of the canon source materials.

the problem is that a lot of people like to bash fan media like fanart/fanfiction because they think everything about fans are terrible

Is it anything like Welcome to the Ballroom or is it just a poor man's version?

This seems to be about ballet. Is Welcome to the Ballroom also focused on ballet, or just dancing in general.

Anyways, here's the plot of the manga from ANN

ANN posted:

The manga centers on Junpei Murao, who was fascinated with ballet as a child, but in his second year of middle school, his father passed away and he decided he needed to become more "masculine," and he gave up on his aspirations. While still having an attachment to ballet, he takes up the martial art of Jeet Kune Do, and becomes popular in his class. Then one day, a new transfer student named Miyako Godai arrives in Junpei's class, and her mother runs a ballet studio. Miyako realizes that Junpei is interested in ballet, and invites him to do ballet together.

Only eight chapters seemed to be translated, and the manga started in 2015

Memes aside, how was Zero Wing as a game? Just your standard shmup?

It's decent, though Toaplan has made better shmups. Fun fact: in the arcade version, you never actually beat Cats, while in the Genesis version, you do.

Here's an article on it if you're interested

actually i decided to listen to their spring 2021 taster video and closed out as soon as cube said she thought junko from zombieland saga singing voice didn't fit her and said it was autotuned when it isn't, then she proceeded to complain that the first episode of revenge was more serious, despite the previous season also having serious episodes especially near the end.

i also listened to the granbelm episode where she seemed confused by a lot of the series, even though from what i've read and seen, it seems pretty straight forward

So I understand that BDs and DVDs in Japan for anime are ridiculously expensive, and therefore more people just stream it there. If a show has great BDs sales but low streaming numbers, does that necesarrily make it a flop
