Anime

Animu looks like this. Sorta.

Anime are cartoons from Japan. Being a fan of anime does not necessarily make one weeaboo under the stricter definition of the term, but if you are weeaboo you are almost certainly an anime fan, so most people do not bother to make the distinction. A large proportion of 4chan's userbase are anime fans, including many of the denizens of /tg/. As a result, anime-related images are frequently posted to /tg/. They also generally have very little to do with the topic itself.

Some of /tg/'s favorite animu include:

• The Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi, specifically a transgendered female version of the main character of the series, Kyon
• Spice and Wolf, specifically Horo, wolf-girl pagan goddess of the harvest. Also economics. Often mistaken for Leman Russ.
• Princess Tutu: Yeah, go ahead and laugh. Imagine a Changeling: the Lost campaign written by Neil Gaiman while chugging the nightmare fuel.
• Touhou, which is not actually an anime or manga but is frequently confused as such by those unfamiliar with it. It has however, received several official manga spinoffs.
• Berserk, which is 3.X DnD: The Anime. Noted for being GUTS HUEG because HUEG GUTS has HUEG GUTS.
• Record of Loads of War: ADnD the Anime.
• Slayers: 2E the Anime.
• Strike Witches:(little girls in panties) If only enough to make a homebrew about it.
• Fist of the North Star: The manliest show ever made.
• Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagaan: The Orkiest show ever made.
• Ghost in the Shell: Standalone Complex: /k/ makes a show about cyborgs and politics.
• Haiyore! Nyaruko-san: Its one of those wacky highschool comedy bits that Japan shits out every season, except starring Nyarlathotep. Yes seriously. Pop culture references, /d/eviance, and gratuitous canon rape ensue.

Most Drawfags will draw their females in a vaguely or obviously animooted style this tends to increase 'fappable levels', if only just to make it more appealing to the general crowd weeaboos.
