>>281176590 (OP)
You can't call 1 person a cult

>>281176846
There's at least a handful of us.

I can't wait for season 2

>>281177486
Same. I'm sure the mayor of Onomichi is working things out behind the scenes to make it happen as soon as possible.

they should all be naked in my bed RIGHT now

I am the only person in the world who finished Pon no Michi.

>>281178703
OP here. I loved Pon no Michi and remember it almost every day.

>>281178678
Especially Izumi. Look at all those exposed body parts
>pits
>tummy
>thighs
>feet
All the erotic girl parts. Where do you lick first?

>>281176590 (OP)
A thread died for this fucking piece of shit?

>>281180758
Yeah, your favorite shonen's general died for this.

>cult classic anime
Excuse me? There's probably less than 1000 people that watched this on the planet.

>>281178703
Plenty people finished the trollsubs. The anime proper doesn’t exactly have much going for it if watched properly and you have no interest in mahjong.

>>281181708
You don't need that many people to start a cult, to be honest.

>>281181802
How much qualifies for a cult following for an anime?

>>281181708
There's definitely more than 1000 people who watched this anime in Japan alone

>>281176590 (OP)
That sounds cool, but I don't know japanese...

>>281182442
I think most of us are just happy that the Pons haven't been forgotten. Their anime might not have been all that special all things considered, but many of us grew attached to these characters.

>>281181806
There were 5 other people than me that watched Estab Life, so 5+.

>>281182760
There might've been even fewer of us in the Dimension High School threads. I can't remember.

>>281176590 (OP)
pai

>>281179454
That's why you can't remember of the fifth girl.

>>281176590 (OP)
Strip Mahjong collab when?

>>281185815
Pai needs correction

>>281185815
Character design doesn't get better than this.

>>281180758
Seethe

>>281178703
I had to resort to trollsubs to finish it.
Like, 3 episodes in or something.

>>281176590 (OP)
Well, the character designs were good at least, no reason not to use them.

Pai thread?

>>281176590 (OP)
Still the best CGDCT of the decade so far.

>>281178703
I'm the only one who read the manga.

>pon no midshit
Worst anime of the millenium

>>281189118
There were multiple CGDCTs this year alone that were way better.

>>281176590 (OP)
>shill mahjong soul in the anime
>still no mahjong soul collab
???

>>281189847

>Peak no Michi
Best anime of the eon

Must have been very unpopular if no one wants to discuss it

>Schizo no Midchi thread is still alive somehow

>>281192985
I thought the schizo didn't like Pon no Michi.

>>281187780
I could stomach the first episode because it's almost all references to other mahjong series I've read or watched. Everything after that was shit.

>>281193222
Schizo likes it too much that he falseflags

Best Pon

>>281193501
Stinkiest Pon

I watched all of PnM
I never downloaded trollsubs

>>281176590 (OP)
Where was this announcement posted? I don't see it anywhere.

>>281193543
Sorry for your loss

>>281193543
So did I. It was pretty enjoyable overall. I even convinced a friend to watch it as well, and he also watched all of it with the real subs.

>>281194078

>>281194136
...you guys actually follow the twitter?

>>281194171
Yes, I do. I followed them on twitter and subscribed to their youtube channel when it was airing.

Did anyone watch the BDs? Did they change ANYTHING? I watched a couple episodes and it looked exactly the same as the original TV anime.

>>281194267
I haven't. might give it a watch eventually.

Must not have been that good if anons don't even rewatch it

>>281194391
I'm going to rewatch it just before the second season starts airing.

>>281194567
So never?

>>281194577
>>281177518

>>281195106
Zatsu Tabi is more likely to get funding from the mayor of Onomichi despite only having one episode take place there. Pon no Michi had atrocious sales and didn't show off much unique to Onomichi besides the Akari Matsuri.

>6.48 rating on MAL
weird that /a/ has such fondness for this anime

>>281181708
It's on the chart

>>281195948
That's the picture you chose for Shuumatsu Train?

>>281196161
Why not, it's about train station villagers turning into things

>>281195948
>the chart of primarily bad anime

>>281196593
Well for one it doesn't even show any of the main characters. No one is going to look at that random ass trees and think, "I want to see more." It's like trying to promote a Gundam anime and never mentioning giant robots.

>>281193543
Everyone watched it that way, some guy just really like to joke about it.

>>281197884
You mean /mjg/.

>>281194267
This bro didn't get the special edition with nipples pfft.

>>281197942
Porn no Michi would have saved this series.

>>281176590 (OP)
>>281188413
>>281185815
>>281189898
I require all the Pon no Michi girls to take turns bullying my small dick with their boobs.

PON PO PO PON PO PON PON PON

>>281197337
In general this premise of "promoting/recommending" is wrong, not telling you what to do but you shouldn't think others follow the same logic. Now I do prefer obscure screenshots for this kind of chart.

>>281198802
Wabisabi shows are mostly shit that no one is going to watch expect people that can stomach 4/10 to 6/10 anime. “Recommending” wabisabi anime is a ridiculous concept because no one is going to want those recommendations.

>>281198561
Still the GOAT.
Why I can't find the OP anymore?

>>281199403
Last I checked they restricted access to it outside of Japan on youtube. Still hilarious when they uploaded the 1 hour version of the OP.

>>281199019
Every anime I see there is god tier though.

>>281195948
I've listened to Edomae Elf's opening more times than I can remember, but for some reason I still just can't bring myself to actually watch it.

>>281199988
Why? You watched this garbage.

>>281198802
>post a /rec/ list
>call it "anime you might have ignored"
>b-but it's not like I'm recommending it or anything
Retard.

>>281195810
Makes sense, don't forget the guide to interpret MAL score:
4/10 or lower: Some meme shit.
5/10: The worst anime that ever existed.
6/10: Amazing, maybe even a masterpiece.
7/10 and 8/10: Yeah it was ok.
9/10: Some meme shit.

>>281199530
Akiba Maid Sensou, sure.

>>281178703
I finished it with no subs. My listening compression is pretty bad though.

>>281199485
The full version's easy to find tho https://youtu.be/pocZ3dBTJ7Y

>>281201217
Did you watch the BDs?

>>281201275
>no OP animation
>an ugly jap instead
No thanks.

>>281200764
Pon no Michi has pretty much everything one would want in an anime. Edomae Elf, from what I've seen, has a nice OP song and a cute elf girl.

>>281203390
Edomae Elf also has KOITUS, that's what I want in my anime.

>>281203390
You and the majority of people have very different ideas of what you're looking for in anime. The story is mediocre, animation is serviceable at best, the music is genuinely terrible.

>>281203694
>Cute girls
>A fun mascot character
>Laid-back atmosphere
>Some mahjong every now and then
>Catchy OP
>Decent animation
>Nice voice acting
Pon no Michi might not be a masterpiece by any stretch of the imagination, but it's above average when it comes to seasonal anime.

Meant to reply to >>281203945

>>281205040
It is great all around but replying is not a good idea.

>>281205040
>>281205098
Thankfully no one sane believes that. S2 is guaranteed to never happen unless Yostar decides to fund it again.

>>281182760
I love my Estab wife Equa.

>>281178703
Thank you for your service.

>>281178703
Same here, you guys need to learn more languages.
