- 2024 has ended. Thanks for all the hard work and lets try our best in 2025 as well.
- A VPN/Proxy is no longer required to log into the game. You will still need one if you access the game via DMM.
- The Christmas Box will stick around until mid January.
- Several limited news years quests have been added.
- November ranking rewards have been distributed. They are the Type 4 Heavy Bomber Hiryuu (Skilled) + No.1 Model 1A Guided Missile +3, Prototype 51cm Triple Gun MountPrototype 51cm Triple Gun Mount +2, Type 1 Armor Piercing Shell Kai +6, and the Skilled Deck Personnel.
- As of mid October 2023 The terms and conditions for the DMM games platform have changed. After 1 year of inactivity games on the platform will have the right to delete your account information if they wish to. Put simply IF YOU GO ONE YEAR WITHOUT LOGGING INTO SHIPTHIS YOU MAY NOT BE ABLE TO SEE YOUR SHIPS EVER AGAIN.
-The following ships will receive another remodel at some point in the future:
-->Kai-II: Hatsuyuki, Shirayuki, multiple Type A DDs
-->Kai-IV: Shigure So dying to Yuuka's stage in Normal/Hard/Lunatic gets you a bad end, but dying at the boss also counts?

NEVER LOOK AT THE AGE, SOME ANON TOLD SOMETHING SIMILAR ~7 YEARS AGO, U SHOULD ONLY CHECK AGE IF U ARE UNDER 25 YEARS OLD, IT HURTS TO KNOW WHEN A BABE IS ~10 YEARS YOUNGER THAN U ORIGINALLY THOUGHT, IT JUST HURTS, TIME IS PAINFUL FOR US WHO DECIDE TO LIVE ANOTHER DAY IN PAIN OF BEING STUCK IN THE NPC VERSION OF SIMULATION, FUCK.
BASICALLY IN SHORT, I CHECKED HER AGE AND I WANT TO KILL EVERYTHING AND EVERYBODY AROUND ME NOW, ANOTHER PRO TIP IS TO USE NUMBERS ONLY IF THEY CAN GIVE YOU BACK POSITIVE INFORMATION, AGE IS NOT A APOSITIVE INFORMATION WHEN U ARE IN YOUR LATE 20'S ITS FULL SCAM . Be safe.

Post Japanese gravure here (remember this is a SFW board)
A gravure idol (グラビアアイドル gurabia aidoru), often abbreviated to gradol (グラドル guradoru), is a Japanese female model who primarily models on magazines, especially men's magazines, photobooks or DVDs. Gravure idols appear in a wide range of photography styles and genres. Their photos are largely aimed at male audiences with poses or activities intended to be provocative or suggestive, generally accentuated by an air of playfulness and innocence rather than aggressive sexuality.

Previous: >>48595504 Don't worry, she isn't mad. She will even get you a drink. Maribel Hearn: The Heart of The Hifuu Club 
Simply "anime fan" or Otaku were the prevailing epithets to describe people who enjoyed watching anime in a positive light in the West. The term weeaboo was used to describe someone who was obsessed with anime to an unhealthy degree. I am sure everyone on this board has seen that one Filthy frank video on weeaboo's. There was a lot of explicit imagery characterizing weeaboos. Basically unhealthy fat guys swinging katana's that are deluding themselves into thinking their Japanese.
But sometime in the 2000-teens, people started self identifying with the word weeb. Which is a shorthand for the word word weeaboo. Why call yourself a derogatory term? Is it like black people with the n-word?
One online definition claimed it was popular even in the early 2000s, but I never heard such a designation during that time period. I want to ask three questions. When did the word weeb become popular? If possible, who coined the term or at least popularized its use? So I can place all the blame on someone and why is it becoming more popular than otaku?

Previous: >>48539725 Would you say this is honestly it? 
I don't know how this thread will be received, and I might be mistaken, but I thought this board could use a joshi thread.
Although many of you are probably familiar with it, joshi is Japanese women's pro-wrestling. Many joshis are failed idols who decided to try their hands in the wrestling ring. Joshis are some of the best wrestlers in the wrestling business today and put on interesting stories both in and out of the ring.
Why am I posting this here when there is a pro-wrestling board? First and foremost, I think there's an overlap of interests here and that many people here who have never been exposed to joshi wrestling would quite enjoy it. Second, the pro-wrestling board is absolute trash and joshi threads are frequently pulled arbitrarily. It's a shame because they are some of the better threads on that board. Haters complain that the posts in question belong here so here we are.
The gal in the picture is Miu Watanabe. She is the former Princess of Princesses of Tokyo Joshi Pro Wrestling (TJPW). You can see a match of hers against Miyu Yamashita here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1K-Nmt7piTI&t It's time we had a cute thread for Orin, instead of just repeating the same lame jokes. Your candid friend has something to tell you, but she's too shy to look you in the eyes. 
This is about anikura (アニクラ) which is a portmanteau of the loan words anison (アニソン) and club (クラブ). Interesting enough, anison itself is a portmanteau of anime (アニメ) and song (ソング) which refers to musical tracks used in various anime series and often gets misspelled by adding a "g" at the end since bawka gaijins can't into nippongo properly. Anyways, anikura refers to the use of "anison" related music in a "club setting" hence how the genre gets its name. Honestly, if you still need to hand to be held on what makes something "anison" or what is a "club," then you need to GTFO and lurk moar.
One of the more notable anikura is Akihabara MOGRA (MOGRA for short) which has been associated with this imageboard for well over a decade. However, just limiting yourself to one venue would do yourself a disservice since there are other livehouses and even devoted anison groups who help contribute to anikura all over Japan! However, for those who wish to explore the anikura scene in Japan, otaku-bar.com would be a great place to start your journey.
Although the primary source of anikura comes from venues in Japan, there are also held online. As previous mentioned: MOGRA is the most well known anikura which also streams a lot of their events online via Twitch. However, there are individuals associated with MOGRA which also streams online and one of them is the President of MOGRA: D-YAMA who goes by the channel name of choroyama via Twitch. As previously stated, MOGRA can be used as the base on discovering other venues and even DJs who also stream online.
Since online streaming is the play, there are international anikura which primarily stream online and also hold physical events when available.

Last thread: >>48145603 Megumu-sama... Please don't hurt yourself.
You don't need to prove you're as flexible as any younger tengu or human. N-Not that we're saying you're old or anything! 
The continuing story of an immortal, her magical car and the friends and enemies they make along the way. The gang has stowed away on a Lunarian vessel and are moments from touching the lunar surface with the moonies none the wiser. Will they be able to take over the orbital slingshot and launch Mokou at Kaguya?

This is an ongoing communal story with a comedic tone. A poster advances the story by posting an image accompanied with a description or light narration. Then another poster advances the story from there and so on. Participation is open so feel free to jump in and contribute.
A few rules and guidelines:
* This is an image-driven story. Posts advancing the story need a suitable image posted alongside.
* Suitable images are often modifications of a previous image. Original images are fine as long as they fit the story.
* Drawings, doodles and/or shoops are fine. Your art only needs to be clear enough for others to understand what is happening.
* Feel free to request the thread to wait if you're worried someone else will advance the story before you finish your own piece. Please finish within a few days of making your request.
* It's encouraged to keep images simple so others may easily modify them. White backgrounds are ideal for their simplicity but not required.
* Advancements should feel like steps and not leaps. No sudden timeskips or abrupt scene shifts please!
* Please avoid gore and excess blood.
* Reading the previous threads is strongly encouraged. This thread is for the discussion of anison (anime song), the genre of music made specifically for anime. Whether it be dedicated anime singers, voice actors, idols, as long as the song was made for an anime, it belongs here. Discuss your favorite anison artists and anime songs, and share your events and experiences!
Discussion of doujin music, anikura, idols, seiyuu (outside of their music careers), and mainstream Japanese artists go in their respective threads.

Previously on /bmsg/ >>48635263 What should I do to get John Yorigami flustered like this?
Her beauty is too much to bear, I want to make her mine! From the day she first came to this world
Her beauty was a miracle to behold
From the day she made her first spell
Her immense tallent was easy to tell
Alice, a miraculous girl
Words are not enough for you
Wonderful wild rose
Perfection in all the ways true
