Who's the Osaka of the West?
Osaka.
O-suck-a these nuts.
>>121078309What’s her character then maybe I can answer
>>121078382She's Osaka.
>>121078382Osaka is Osaka. >>121078372That’s not even close to working.
>>121078309there simply isn't
>>121078309The dumb blond from Loud House.
>>121078487Now I kinda wanna see the knife prank done with leni and lorihttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=37mPoKQijj8
>>121078487>blondIf you're referring to a female, it is spelled blonde. If you're referring to a male, it is spelled blond. The more you know.
Who's the Mr. Anderson of the East?
>>121078382spacey, can have strange interpretations of events and do odd things
>>121078546Osaka.
Just posting best girl. Besides yomi
I'm not crazy about the dub for this but the performance for Osaka was pretty good.
>>121078309She's pretty unique to be honest. She reminds me more of a real girl in my class who was on the Asperger's spectrum. She ended up in remedial class, got pregnant and quit school at 16.
>>121078585Agreed
go team seaslug
>>121078580For me, it's Kagura and Sakaki. Simple as.
>>121078580>not Miss SakakiShe's so coolAlso I get very nostalgic feelings now listening to the opening and ending.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AzV9ug9BQdshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NBzKXP9cnIQ
>>121078309Osaka is in the west.The Eastern equivalent would thus be Tohoku.
>>121078382Osaka has severe attention-deficit disorder, and possibly autism spectrum disorder. She has a wildly abnormal way of thinking about things, and is generally very slow and deliberate in her actions and thought patterns. She isn't stupid. Quite intelligent actually, able to learn and retain a great deal of trivia. However, she struggles academically because she fails to retain information she isn't directly interested in learning.
>>121078535No that's dumb. The words are functionally identical. I'm not following arbitrary semantics whether or not to add an E on the end based on gender. What if I'm talking about a group of people or "blonds" as a general topic?
>>121078649>No that's dumbWelll technically 'blond' can apply to anybody but 'blonde' is specifically for women.
>>121078649>gendersex. there's no gender.
>>121078382autism, unironically
>>121078580based
>>121078309Jughead
>>121078686There is undeniably gender as a grammatical concept. A wig has no sex but you'd still write "blonde wig."
>>121078649Tough shit dude that's how the language works. Every language has arbitrary retarded bullshit.
>>121078632I miss that Sakaki hentai flash.
>>121078649>GenderMade-up neologism created by John Money in an effort to 'deconstruct' identity using post-modernist theory. Had no degree in psych.. Turned out to be a pedophile who just wanted to molest children and used critical theory to get that. Still touted as factual and credible to this day even though both of the twins he used ended up committing suicide.
>>121078756https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grammatical_gender
>>121078465I unironically like this. Literally has more personality than anime
>>121078309>moeshit

>>121078633isn't it Tokyo? capital of the east?
>>121078649>tpguess the flag
>>121078845Doesn't mean he can't make something nice too
>>121078585Shit opinion.
>>121078753As do I. I like the Mario edits.
>>121078642>Osaka has severe attention-deficit disorder, and possibly autism spectrum disorder.

>>121078845Who? I feel like I recognize the style but not the name
>>121079073I don't know who he is, but LWB is the signature on the drawing
>>121079080>LWBFound himhttps://www.deviantart.com/lwbiverse
>>121078309Steven
>>121078813King of the Hill is moe you fucking retard
>>121078784I wouldn't say more personality.They're highly kinetic and more abstract than Azuma's grounded designs that aim to portray closer to the actual dimensions of real school girls.I feel if Azumanga Daioh! was done with these designs the tempo would feel terribly off because the designs scream for movement and extreme cartoon action.>>121078855Tokyo is literally the "Eastern Capital", yes.But Osaka is not a capital city, it is the traditional commercial center of the Southwest which is culturally and linguistically rather distinct from the Kanto area, where Azumanga is set. Therefor, being from Tokyo is unremarkable as that's everyone. To mirror her situation as the one from another part of Japan along the banana that is Honshu, she'd have to be from the Northeast, the largely rural and under developed Tohoku region. Maybe even Hokkaido.So maybe they'd call her Miyagi or Sapporo. And she'd probably be associated with coal mining, melon farming or the like.
>>121079130
>>121079073animatedjames but under a new name
>>121078487But isn't Leny a hottie with big boobs? Osaka is average-looking and flat.
>>121079236That's a hottie in Jap standards.
>>121079145Oh I get what you meanI also confused osaka for kyoto
osaka more like whoresaka
>>121079341I wish I could have impregnated her.
>>121078993I think you're onto something
>>121079236>But isn't Leny a hottie with big boobs?She's simply not ugly, and her boobs aren't particularly big, you've seen too much fanart.
>>121079341
>>121079377She's a hottie, yes. The other anon is wrong in that her boobs aren't big.
>>121078382Literal autism.That's it
>>121079265Nah, Osaka's meant to be average-looking in the canon. Her boobs are probably normal for Japan, I give you that.>>121079377>She's simply not uglyI saw some episodes of the earlierearlier seasons, I'm pretty sure Leny gets at least some attention from guys. I think in the canon she's meant to be a hottie. A dumb, dumb hottie. Which Osaka isn't.
>>121078993You know, "Eddy, carrots are good for your eyes. Can it dial a phone?" honestly does sound like something that Osaka could say.
>>121079536Japs are very similar in appearance. Granted she is suppose to be average. It was a joke though.
>>121079536>Which Osaka isn't.speak for yourself
Osaka is the hick.
>>121079577>speak for yourselfOK. I think in the canon she's meant to be a hottie. A dumb, dumb hottie. Which I am not.Better?
>>121079536She's a 17 year old girl with blond hair, unless your ugly most boys will gok at you.
>>121078580I've always like Tomo and her trollish personality. The big downsides is her intense, ceaseless energy despite somehow having zero stamina. I also liked that she changed her hairstyle every year.
>>121078546Neo
>>121080042Only once. Her short hair looks like shit. Also, her lack of energy is just a lack of cardio. She sprints and loses it all in the race.
>>121080042tomo is a necessary evil
>>121078309According to google Osaka’s sister city (at least in America) is San Francisco.
>>121080138>Only once.She's had at least three off the top of my head: past her shoulders, mid-length and parted to the sides, and boyishly short.
>>121080356That's too, just a difference between animation and comics.
Tomo with short hair is the cutest thing, and I won't hear otherwise.
Who is the Sakaki of the west?
>>121080612Isn't Sakaki American?
>>121080663She's referred to as having "American-sized" tits, but she's completely Japanese. Tomo is "Japanese" since she's flat, and Yomi is "Hawaiian" since she's not quite flat but not as busty as Sakaki.
>>121080746But Hawaii would also be 'Murica.
>>121081055It's a bit different from the rest of America and it's roughly between Japan and America geographically.
>>121080746BEEG AMERIKAN TIDDIES
>>121078546
>>121079577Nyamo should have sex with male students.
>>121078309Who's the Yotsuba of the west?
>>121081130Was thinking the same thing
>>121081409Hilda.
>>121078465What are the episodes like?
>>121078642How easy would it be to get Osaka in the sack?
>>121081409Moot
>>121081559Who?
>>121081409Hilda + Calvin.
>>121081409
>>121081528About average. She'd be able to catch on to your intentions, but since she isn't very shy, it would be possible with proper courtship. Osaka would be a good girlfriend, but won't sleep with you just to sleep with you. She's the kind of girl you need to start a relationship with.
>>121078642someone should hook her up on some adderall or ritalin then.
>>121081690Do not drug Osaka
who is the Chiyo of the West?
>>121081409/co/ doesn't have Yotsuba due to excessive porn addiction and ironic detachment preventing them from enjoying cute things for being cute and nothing else.
>>121081800Dexter.
>>121081836>/co/ doesn't have Yotsuba due to excessive porn addiction and ironic detachment preventing them from enjoying cute things for being cute and nothing else.>Remember even Ducky's VA has porn of herNothing is safe.
>>121081587I know you're trolling, but it still hurts.
>>121081409Calvin.
>>121081903I started using 4chan after he left and I still miss him.
>>121080422Well at least in the anime she has three distinct hairstyles, though it's at its shortest during the summer. The reference art for the anime displays it, and considering its stylistic fidelity, I'd think the same goes for the manga.
>>121082139He was an actual cuck though so it was best he left lol
>>121082139When did he leave again?
>>121082139his ted talk is great
>>121078813Bobby Hill might honestly by western Osaka considering the outside of the box thinking, memeability and everyone liking drawing his face.
>>121078309I just realised that this thread has 100+ replies. Whew.
>>121078309All our female characters are awful, we could never have our own Osaka without completely ruining it and making her very annoying. Throw in some "fucks people over but is sympathetic due to her nature" for more likelihood of shit.
>>121084867Nah dude. Gwenpool is one of the best female characters of all time.
>>121082492Honestly I think he just saw the writing on the wall with the site getting worse and left before it went completely tits-up.
>>121085910Why was she so thicc for one frame?
>>121081836>>121081883This, people here just can't stop thinking with there dick to actually enjoy something cute.
Are you guys seriously implying that /a/ isn't full of coomers?
>>121086229To be fair. Most of the people who make characters or shows and try to make cute stuff in the west always try to hide their degeneracy. Azuma started out making hentai, got his jollies then made official Tenchi Muyo stuff and Sailor Moon Doujins, then made the worlds most popular anime for a time, then made an iconic manga. To replicate that kind of success and respect the modern equivalent would have to be a newgrounds animator turned wholesometuber turned show runner. Which is happening more and more these days.
>>121079155>>121079107If it really is him, he's not doing a good job at hiding it
>>121081409tora is so cool
>>121078546Tora san.>>121078558Xavier renegade angel wierd? Uncle grandpa weird, or less weird?
>>121086138That’s just wrong, dude.
>>121081878that's more like Hakase
>>121087158Hakase is more like Doom

>>121078382>all the people telling this anon it's autism or spaceyOnly half right. Osaka is a space case from a part of Japan that's stereotypically known for being fast talking, impolite, forward, jokesters. If you're picking a /co/ Osaka that character has to be playing against their stereotype in addition to being a space case.
>>121087135The character in question >>121085910 is a teacher, not a student.
>>121078309
>>121086371This.A LOT of Jap creators started out as horny motherfuckers making porn and the like, because they had an actual outlet they got it out of their system then moved on to make other stuff as they got older.No such thing exists in the west, since making porn (especially the kind of porn that guys like Tadataka Kawasaki and Nanashi made) basically ensures that you will never have a real career in western animation, and since no one in the west cares about non-superhero comics and no one ever wants to adapt books into an animated property nowadays, you're basically forced to completely separate your porn from your professional work or never draw any to begin with.
>>121089663too bad miyuki was a forgotten character and didn't have 1/3rd the appearance and relevance of chiyo-chan

>>121101163we are
>>121102570moot was part of some IRC group Raspberry Heaven (name of the Azumanga Daioh ED song) that was associated with the SA anime forums before making 4chan. Azumanga Daioh is part of the founding of this website in a way.
for me, it's kagura
>>121104786>tomboy who grew huge boobs but isn't confident about themCute.

>>121108655sometimes I wonder whats it like to be an oldfag back when the site was first a thing. Alas, I was born a zoomer
What really got me wondering is why have we never had a zany slice of life comedy cartoon like azumanga daioh, Pani Poni, and Lucky star when it's a well known fact that plenty of the current cartoon creators are total weebs.
>>121108658it`s amazing
>>121108655/f/ is the last remaining oldfag board
>>121108576https://youtu.be/sQjyOSmtmAw
>>121108696It was fun, way more anime-focused though. Up until about 2008 you could make anime threads on pretty much any board you wanted, I very distinctly remember the entire website basically watching some series like Death Note, Gurren Lagann, and Haruhi. It was also much more goofy, but at the same time serious conversations were common as well. People knew which threads were just fun and which were meant to be more discussion-oriented, and generally kept them separate.
>>121108576It was basically the most popular show on this site for the first few years of its existence and had a pretty big impact in its foundational days.
>>121108576This is not only anime culture, it's 4chan culture. Do you at least know who Yotsuba is?
>>121108625OSAKA NOOO
>>121108576Azumanga is the grandmother of internet culture dude. Just watch it and you'll basically be caught up with what every "slice of life" show imitated for 20 years before isekai took its place.
>>121108950sh-she's big
>>121108998for you
>>121079268It's legit out there. Osaka is rad. And every time I meet folks from that area they're more easy going. I have a very positive stereotype of it.

>>121117848they'd be good platonic buddies for sure! but would she know about ben's secret?
