I love hidemari sketch and patlabor

Osaka please learn Brazilian Portuguese

come to sau paulo osaka sama!

Honestly I always considered mints videos to just be an extremely raw and stripped down version of the denpa vlog. Similar to how hardcore punk relates to traditional punk…and I know people here hate this analogy…but the original hardcore kids HATED how nihilistic, edgy, and self destructive the original punks were. But they still genuinely loved the music. So they took that style music and put their own spin on it. A lot of those dudes were bringing in things that punk was never previously about. Hell, there’s an entire sub genre of spiritual hardcore called “Krishna-Core” and lots of other offshoots and variations that evolved over time. My perception of what mint is doing is he seems to be stripping away a lot of the core values of denpa, criticizing them, and doing a much simpler version of the denpa vlog while adding his own interests and flairs. I think it’s cool. But I’m not saying denpas being analogous to OG punks with the nihilism and stuff is necessarily a one to one comparison and…even if it was…that isn’t really a bad thing. People can do what they want with their lives. I personally enjoy living like shrek and just slopping around in my room. But idk I don’t see the point in getting annoyed and trying to reel him back or edit him at all. He should just do his thing. And if he’s not allowed to be annoyed and should be open to criticism then so should everyone else.

i don't understand why the "neo-denpas" just not make videos. You hardly ever saw "og denpas" or whatever debate what "denpa" is ad nausem.
they just /did/ stuff and broadcast it. This constant looking back, measuring against some arbitrary metric that /never fucking existed/ is a ball and chain you are inventing and chaining to yourselves.

denpa has gone full simulacrum with these "neo-denpas" and that's the real tragedy here.

>>576
I actually agree with you. It’s exhausting.

>>576
Who are you thinking of? I can think of multiple neo denpas who make videos actively and rarely post here??? (At least rarely namefag dat is)

I really like gurren lagann

How did I get here? I was watching a man ramble into his camera and then suddenly a portal opened up and I got sucked into a void where a bunch of otaku beat me with baseball bats until I started a shitty Neo-Denpa channel and then deleted it because the void disappeared spontaneously…I’m so confused

>>563
I'll cross-post my reply in that case.

I don't hold Osaka up as an idol, he's a very flawed guy. I wasn't necessarily praising him, I was just saying that I was drawn to his video because he was doing what others on YouTube claim to do, something genuinely different and authentic. There's a difference between an aesthetic that you just so happen to have and aestheticising something. For example most Denpa content, including mine is extremely low fidelity because most of us are poor NEETs who can't afford top of the line hardware to upload our videos, therefore we record at low resolutions to keep our file sizes small, because otherwise it would take literally hours to upload some of our videos. It's not aestheticised, it's just the aesthetic the videos happened to take up due to necessity.

Also I wasn't bragging about not playing video games, etc. As I eluded to in this video and have said in others, I'm quite a fucked up guy, and I have my own vices. I was just saying that I'm not interested in getting past the current slop/entertainment to venture onto new pastures of slop. I'm looking to do away with entertainment entirely to whatever degree I can. Maybe that seems pretentious, but for me it reads more like a drug addict trying to quit an addiction.

>>570
I admit that I had a very toxic view of Denpa earlier on and was trying to (somewhat manically) steer it in my own direction. In the video you're referring to I stated how I felt like I became corrupted, maybe I didn't speak about that as much as I should have, but I'm quite frankly ashamed of some of my later videos, before I "left" and the whole direction that I was taking the channel.

OH NO IM PARASOCIAL!

Yeah that whole parasocial thing was retarded to be fair.

But you have an agenda now:

I changed my name because I recognised some of the, more than anything, retarded behaviour I was getting myself into in forwardly identifying with the Denpa label. It was very presumptuous of me.

Honestly from this point moving forward I think I'm just going to stop referring to Denpa or any of the meta on here entirely. Honestly meta itself is probably just a potential pitfall. Not discussing the meta of Denpa would seem like a good way to keep out of the drama.

I apologise for any offense I may have caused to anyone, or any drama I may have started here.

See? He’s a kind soul. Love ya, mint

>>576
what the fuck are you even talking about

>>582
To be fair I can understand the complaints people have made against me and have/will be considering them moving forwards.

I'm not trying to expunge myself, being as ashole is still being an ashole, regardless of how intentional or not, but I would want people to know that the last thing I want is to intentionally cause drama. If someone has a problem with my I appreciate the criticism.

>>583
see: every single "what is denpa" thread.
this is manifestation of the same problem. some weird nostalgia for something that didn't exist. if you don't get it that's fine. i'm clearly not the only person who has noticed this tendancy and think it's lame.
im not saying this is a universal problem amoung all the "neo denpas", as we are terming them, it's just a problem that exists as an undercurrent in the space, coloring everything and does sometimes become the actual text of the content.

There is one og denpa who was notably fixated on the term, but i have for a long time viewed them as being annoying for that reason (amoung others). No i won't bother calling them out. or anyone for that matter. If you don't see the issue i'm talking about that's fine. Unless you are feeding the problem. then you are a glowie attempting to destroy my culture and fuck you.

>>585
ive what your talking about in threads but like really this denpa labeling bullshit is soooo fucking dumb man

>>586
Well, what is Denpa to you?

>>587
i define it as simply "outsider" hence why I think the labeling of a "denpatuber" or a "denpavideo" is stupid a "denpascene" a outsider scene it kinda contradictory to the definition of an outsider no?

>>588
really the need to constantly classify everything we encounter is a problem in of itself.

>>573
Estou aprendendo português há meses, só não falo sobre isso. Eu amo essa língua! Mas só falo um pouco.
>>574
Tô colando em São Paulo em breve!

>>590
oneday i wanna visit brazil

>>590
Unironically jumpscared. Sinceramente não esperava que você fosse tentar aprender português - a maioria dos gringos aprendem espanhol e ignoram completamente o português apesar do fato que é uma língua muito mais bela e intrincada.
Isso é incrível! Grava um video falando Português plz, eu ficaria muito feliz

>>592
kkkk pior que eu tô tentando sim, acho português lindo demais, sério valeu mesmo!! fico feliz que você achou isso sobre o vídeo aí você me quebra kkk tenho vergonha ainda, mas quem sabe um dia acho que quero esperar minha pronúncia melhorar um pouco antes de falar mais

BRAZIL ARC??

brazil is fake.

no hables espanol

I'm going to reply to Flaneur's "dread" video tonight as I don't think I can adequately write down what I would like to say to them

>>597
Looking forward to it

This seems like a fun exercise for denpas to do. Talk about something small and meaningless for one hour.

I'm going to have to delay doing >>597 because I have things to do and I got distracted last night : (
I can however do it tonight as I am free

>>601
Yayyyyyyyy

>>600
watch the first few seconds. Hated it.

>>600
this guy is a cute but the rapephobia in his yaoi things I hate video really gave me the ick!

>>604
I wonder how people even find stuff like this

>>605
The original video? I assumed that either the creator himself posted it here, or it got recommended randomly to the poster.
Yaoi rape? Most hentai websites offer some.

what the fuck are y'all talking about

>>607 >>583
meat, if you’re going to be constantly shitting up the board with low effort posts you could at least learn how to follow the conversations.

>>608
sorry but maybe just maybe stop saying complete fucking nonsense why the fuck are are y'all talking about fucking rape and yaoi now???

600 posted a video of a YouTuber whose channel revolves around yaoi discussion. 604 said they disliked how said YouTuber is against rape in his yaoi. All of this was posted briefly before you made your own post. That's why people were posting about yaoi rape. Please learn to follow threads, Meat.

>>610
you know maybe its reasonable to be against rape? still very weird thing to be talking about man

>>611
its fiction though so who really cares anyway

This old n0thanky0u video was taken down by youtube. Does anyone have an archive of it?

>>614
For the record, it's called "anti-boomer aktion"

>>614
do you know literally anything else about the video? when it was made? what it's name is. hell, anything about the content?

>>616
The video was released on February 5th, 2019, and garnered 204 views by December 23rd, 2024. The name I have already mentioned. I know not of the content, but the description read "#killallthebabiesandtheover80s".

616 >615

ya, that wasn't posted when i was making my message, sorry.
I've checked my current archive and the online ones, apparently i don't have it or it is mislabeled.

i do seem to recall having watched it, so i have no idea why i don't have it in my archive.

i cant believe you noobies dont remember anti boomer aktion

I'm almost certain I remember having watched it. n0 goes on a long tirade about why boomers must be culled for their sins.

>>620
YouTube gave that video a community guidelines strike for supposedly promoting violence. They've done the same thing to multiple osaka video just for having an eccentric title
