Personally for me I will probably leave Kissu open right next to 4chan threads until we get to the point where all the posters I care about are posting on Kissu. At that point I never want to use 4chan again.

If /amv/ goes well, I may be able to give up that other site for good. /jp/ + smug/a/ was already the bare minimum for a 4/a/ replacement so adding a place for more focuses, medium-term /a/ discussion would totally cover that gap (except special holiday events I guess). I doubt /amv/ will be fast enough to cover all the major news (read: laughing at AAA crashing and burning), but if it at least covers quality discussion then I'll try using zzz or 8moe to cover the rest. Nothing else (outside of /f/) was worth going to outside of very specific happenings.

>>151589 Yeah, this is what I wanted from the board. 4/a/ was plagued by people starting kuso threads and waiting for people to show up and smug/a/ doesn't get enough traffic for threads to ever die so they just use the same one all season. I don't want things to be centralized like that where you come clicking on the same thread every week to check the new posts. If there's something in an episode I want to talk about I'll make a thread for that specific thing. Sometimes there will be multiple threads for the same show talking about different things, sometimes there won't be anything worth saying about it for a few weeks. How that ends up looking will depend on what everyone is watching and what they want to talk about, but the one thing we should avoid at all costs is centralizing and standardizing discussions.

As for Rabi Ribi I'd say its main strength is just the raw beatemup bullet hell gameplay. It has story and characters but, while I have no problem with moe, I would describe the characters as moeblobs and the story is a thing that happened I suppose.

>>151816 >Kissu-relevant content >otaku stuff I know it may not look like it going by the recent threads, but Kissu is very permissive with topics. Just about anything goes so long as it's not intentionally divisive or in bad faith. (Although there is a
>>>/secret/ venue where those sorts of things are tolerated...) I think the best way to think about is that Kissu is that the posters who call it home are united by shared otaku interests, but have disparate interests, knowledge, and experience. That was a large part of the appeal of 4/qa/ before Kissu was founded. There's not many places where people come together to discuss number theory, computer hardware, programming, spirituality, philosophy, internet history, anime, manga, video games, linguistics, and so much more! And what's more, have people who have informed opinions on all of those things and can speak in depth without resorting to baseless arguing with buzzword-laden posts!
That's what makes Kissu great to me. We can house all these serious things, but also enjoy watching silly seasonal anime or play video games together. My frens are here (

>>151350 For nearly the past decade or so, 4ch was just seasonals for me anyway. The actual website beyond this fairly low quality engagement was already shifting quite drastically in a way I didn't really enjoy or care for.
Past of that was the way the userbase seemed to get angrier and more hostile, taking everything too seriously, part of it was the drastic increase of unmedicated schizophrenics and part of it was the clear unwillingness to actually understand the website by the people running it.
It's only natural that after being forced to find an alternative, I'd stick.
