Imagine having a grown son who watches anime

Someone posted a thread here about how Anna Kavan's book, Ice, was in some anime. Is there some "Literary Anime" out there airing or something?

fpbp

>it's an user imagines Veeky Forums is the only place people have heard of internationally renowned authors thread

what anime is this?

Yes

lmao what is it called?

Bernard-jou Iwaku. It's only 3 minutes an episode, though.

>It follows Sawako "Miss Bernard" Machida, a lazy girl who wants to be a well-read person — but does not actually read much.
Veeky Forums in a nutshell.

Nothing wrong with being in a nutshell unless you have bad dreams.

This is a very good post. I like how it subtly refutes my post above it.

/a/ and Veeky Forums are my OTP

> 10/10 qt girls reading patrician literature as well as not dismissing genre fiction

How can Veeky Forums even compete?

I don't get it.

Watching it right now. Actually pretty enjoyable. Lots of in-jokes and overall very relatable

>Not 'grown wife's son'
One purpose

By being straight.

>You don't get it at all. When it comes to Pynchon, you don't read it. You say, "Pynchon? Oh, I tried to read it, but I gave up"

Holy shit, this is gold

>Moby Dick....is just a myth!
>Why are you acting like you finished reading it?

Thank you, user. Thank you.

girl on girl love is pure

It's pure something alright.

Cartoon is ok I guess, really nails a certain kind of "reader".

Episode 12 comes out on 23rd December

Japan really is a chilling example of the long-term and initially invisible effects of atomic hellfire on humanity.

what

This anime is 100% Veeky Forums

...

>when were you when Veeky Forums was even more marginalized by anime?

fixed that for you

I don't understand what you are trying to say exactly

I guess he means the nips are retarded because they got nuked

He saying that them being nuked in the past unintentionally caused the otaku subculture

do you think the yanks would have decided against the bombing had they known?

The nips would end up pedophiles no matter what, so no.

Gotta love that new smell

lmao

There are probably more "otakus" in the US though.

I'd like him more than my autistic son who shitposts on Veeky Forums and fantasizes about living the Veeky Forumserary lifestyle

>namedrops Ballard, Egan, and Ice

it must be written by 2chan's Veeky Forums

Hamlet you fucking redditors

There wouldn't be if it weren't for japan

bolaño episode when

>It's no use, I'll say that one's for lending and i'll buy another copy.

audible kek

What books do 2chan Veeky Forums like out of curiosity?

Which is BS because otaku culture grew out of the country's economic collapse in the 80s/90s.

Which could only take place after their post-war economic miracle which only happened because the US wanted another eastern bastion of anti-communism which they could only do because they reigned hellfire upon the unsuspecting Nips before the Ruskies could get to it ergo, user was right and you are a pseud.

manga

What a piece of work is a shitposter!

>>/pol/

...

That is without a doubt the saddest board I have ever seen.
>Esoteric Trains Thread

Fucking kek. Best anime so far.

Fuck off right back to Facebook.

Sawako is basically the moe personification of Veeky Forums, smug, patronizing and stupid

why are you doing this

What's the context of the book's appearance and her reaction?

watch it and find out, it's three minutes long

That's three (3) more minutes that I could be shitposting on Veeky Forums.

she uses it as an implement to rape her sister, phoebe

Yer mum subtly refuted my post all last night.
Wait, no, that didn't happen.

I watched a couple of episodes last night with my gf, she couldn't keep up with the subs...

>she couldn't keep up with the subs.
Only person I know like this is my mom. Pretty pathetic gf u got there.

pretty pathetic genetics u got there

Pretty vain thing to say about someone.

>Kanbayashi will NEVER be your gf
>Why even live

She couldn't read Pynchon.

>not going for the energetic pseud

I'll read it to her.

>But why

because she is smug

But user, how can you resist this?

We would ramble over eachother about editions and translations.

Whatever, have the pseud if you want.

I will save you the trouble of finding the right episode

How dare you spoonfeed them.

Reminder that she adores genre fiction.

And literary fiction

I think all the characters in it are personifications of the different Veeky Forums users.
Endou is the r9k who reads because he has trouble interacting with other people.
Sumika is the ashamed Veeky Forums user who enjoys pleb-tier literature and even some YA.
Shiori is the avergae Veeky Forums user who is so worried about forming part fo the literary world taht can't truly enjoy literature becuase is too concerned about making all the right decisions.
Sawako is, I dare say, the only character who I believe doesn't exist in Veeky Forums. I refuse to believe there are people who read becuase of the patrician look it provides.

Pretty couple of lil bitches

Is Sumika the Sherlock fangirl?

I hate her. Bad taste and ugly. Dumb.

Shut up. She's a sweet girl

I will eat the sweetly bitter taste of the white-skinned long black haired loli.

This is because I have good taste, you understand.

>I refuse to believe there are people who read because of the patrician look it provides.

Gee, most of the discussion on Veeky Forums is so dumb that I have difficulty believing some of these assholes actually read. People shit so much on popular literature here, so I don't see why they won't read just to jerk off over their perceived superiority

everyone here is sawako

There is nothing about this image that is not perfect.

She's too fucking cute to be so well-read. Life's not fair!

I'm Sawako. I actually read, but watashi was Sawako desu.

I was going to rail on her for bothering to read so many translated works but then I realised I'm not reading a single book that isn't translated.

The amount of literary references you can cram into 3 minutes is staggering

>Endou is the r9k who reads because he has trouble interacting with other people
Why is it that
>lol he is /r9k/ the character XD
meme so common?
No he isn't /r9k/.

Because of Notes.

Holy shit. This is like the Veeky Forums equivalent of discovering Malack Obama's twitter

fpbp

I am not (You)

Can't wait for them to shit on DFW.

Dude. He spends all his days reading alone and when the girl taht is obviously dropping her panties for him starts a conversation with him he recommends a bar and gifts her a book about a chef detective.
He couldn't be more autistic.

Next episode probably will be something christmas related. Maybe Dickens or classic christmas japanese tales.

You have mediocre taste.

Lmao, you are right.

>he recommends a bar
And you think HE'S autistic.
And you think I have mediocre taste.

>Dickens
Is that a thing in Japan? I know they love Christmas, but isn't it a bizarrely distorted version that mainly involves going to KFC?
