Genki was founded with fruitful discussion in mind, which is why we enforce these rules in our forum quite stringently:
- Discussion of anime series and films ONLY. We now have a game forum for anime-inspired games, such as the Purrsona series.
- Please only use Japanese when your discussion directly relates to the words used in a series. Japan has a beautiful language, and we don’t want to see it abused.
- Subs and dubs both have advantages and disadvantages – and that’s the end of that discussion. Any abuse over a person’s choice of language will result in an instant ban.
- Similarly, we’re here to celebrate all anime, from Oscar-winning films to 500+ episode Shonen. No matter someone’s preference, be kind with your discussion.
- All posts need a tag. If you’re not sure what category your post falls into, you can use the ‘MISCELLANEOUS DISCUSSION’ tag.
- Respect the mods! We’re trying to create a safe and welcoming space.
- Latest film and episode discussions will be placed into their own megathread, to prevent the forum being flooded with posts. After a set time, you can make individual posts again.
- We welcome critique, but language is to be kept respectful. No ranting or personal attacks on creators or studios.
- Please read the ‘how-to’ thread before creating a post. It helps keep everything in order!
- Love anime, always…but don’t become obsessed. It’s one great art form created by one country, with so many others across the world to explore and appreciate.
