      What's Japanese television like?

      Inaccurate garbage there needs to be more stuff popping up on screen, more audience reactions, and at least 5 camera feeds of famous studio guests' faces reacting to what's happening and the crowd going "EEEEEEHHHH?"

      Best board would be Cinemaphile or Cinemaphile, /jp/ is an otaku board, not a Japan board. But you would be better off looking up stuff on youtube, it's not easy living in Japan as a foreigner, not that I think it should be.

          If you actually read it, you'd realize those characters are antagonists (just like how IRL trannies are) and they're not meant to be condoned at all. Japan is the final bastion of freedom on Earth, still safe from the Chinese bug menace & israeli degeneracy. Stop making it look like bad guys when you're the actual bad guys, moron.

          No one in Japan uses those israelite services. Japanese movie industry surpasses Hollywood. No Japanese knows who Colbert is. CNN doesn't exist in Japan when NHK exists.
          >Their government is also just as pozzed as ours, giving companies tax cuts for pushing diversity shit and what else.
          Nope. Japan has one of the most conservative governments in the world. Japanese companies do not receive tax cuts because every Japanese must perform their fair share of work always.
          You are just a sniveling little Israeli cuckold who is slowly destroying the West & trying to make Japan, one of the most peaceful countries in the world with one of the lowest crime rates in the world, look """bad""" in order to please globalist investors. Frick off.

    People always say the acting is shitty. But i find the bad acting can be charming in certain shows.
    Densha Otoko is about an Otaku who saves a beautiful woman from being molested, and gets advice from 2channel on how to date her.
    It's completely cheesy, but incredibly earnest, and soulful.

          the formuliacness of the new years specials really hurt it imo. Thats part of the charm but it's getting old. The early batsu specials actually looked painful. Now it's like they fake reactions

          Japanese comedy in general is about doubling down on a gimmick, a style, or a gag. The comedy is extremely stale imo. Manzai sadly is the only comedic artform in japan with any relevance besides rakugo.
          And manzai relies on a very predictable formula.

          It's just 1700 episodes bro, but you can skip the last 200.

          he'd have to speak japanese fluently to watch all 1700 most of the series isn't subbed sadly.

            I started there too, without knowing any japanese. Through subbed episodes, and years of watching, i got to the point where i somewhat understand most of the episodes. But it's a long road.

            Anyway, if you understand why video related is funny and what they are telling him, then you should have no problem at all with any episode.

          Early episodes have stuff that they would NEVER be allowed to do today. I also find it hilarious that Yoshimoto's CEO now used to be a target for jokes in early Gaki episodes.
          Generally the best episodes, at least for me, are those where they include Gaki's staff as well. Komu, Yoshinobu, Ohnuma, Suga etc...

      Gaki no tsukai is not like a normal series. It is a variety show. You do not have to follow a chronological order, and often you couldnt even if you wanted to. You find whatever subbed episodes you can find online, and watch them.

      I recommend absolutely tasty series to start with, matsumoto pie hell, or silent library, and ofcourse the batsu game specials

                Most countries only have soap opera tier shit instead of golden era cable tv series, dumbass.

                Sopranos is a fun and well written show. But the premise of a mob boss conveniently opening himself up to a psychiatrist is the most laughable shit i've ever heard.
                The writing is midwit tier. It's just comfy and likeable.
