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 to some degree or another, 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 favourite 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
  • Touhou, which is not actually an anime or manga but is frequently confused as such by those unfamiliar with it
