Some of us Thought it might be nice to have a thread to kind of list off who is who's waifu. The concept is simple really, just say in this thread who your waifu is. Just for starters, this is Minagi Tohno
Mayuzumi Fuyuko
Mikan!
Finally I feel confident enough to post here. My husbando is the Major and we are slowly approaching our third anniversary ★ He's the only one who truly understands me and the only one who could actually love me for what I really am
To those who have a waifu who is canonically dead, how do you feel about it? Is it necrophilia? To everyone else, how would you feel?
I think it's unsettling to the extent that you have to be exposed to such an idea, but it's not too bad since your waifu hasn't really left you... I think it's akin to a bad dream.
Well... The chances of my S/O dying were pretty much zero considering her source's nature; so I can't relate that much. However, it'd be definitely pretty nightmarish.
I don't pay it much mind. She is alive to me as an idea.
My wife was mentioned having passed away during the ending of her series, where she was the main protagonist. The ending skips ahead to centuries later to the time of her descendants. I read the manga adaptation of her series after it had already finished, so I pretty much fell in love with her at the same time that I learned about how her story ended. The idea of her passing away left a heavy feeling in my heart, but at the same time, it happened many years later after the main story so it just felt like a glimpse into her future rather than her actually being dead for real. It helps that I imagine being with her in my own alternate timeline based on the actual series and the events mentioned in the ending have not yet occurred since I tend to imagine the "present day" version of her as being "about a year or two after the main story ended", so she's still very much alive to me.
Are there other characters important enough to you to call them your family or friends?
It makes my heart happy that the my anime harem image was made into a family and friends one.
Had to cheat so hard for this.
Kurosawa based.
We need a thread for creative things you do specifically of/for your waifu; I feel this is more /mai/ than /cr/. Here's a sketch I just made with this online drawing tool someone showed me: http://kokuban.in/skeb/
>>21524 I'm rewatching the series after 12 years and it's like re-discovering the most amazing thing. Sometimes there's too many false memories, memes, people talking about it, so you need to forget about it for a long time then return to it to see what made it so great.
I finally got around to starting to write a short story about my waifu and I. It felt very nice to get it all down on paper textfile. I don't know how much I'll write or where I really want it to go, I'd like to share it but im not sure if I want to put it all into a post.. maybe I'll write it all out if i know somebody is there and will read it. Maybe I'll think of some other way to share.
Happy Birthday Emilia, I wish I could return the happiness and love you give me every day and show you instead of telling you. You are the world to me and not a day goes my I don't long to see your face, I look forward to another year together
What are you experiences with getting things related to your waifu custom made? Currently I'm in the process of finally getting a daki made after managing to find a decent artist with reasonable prices. Final product should be done in about a week. If anyone's interested/curious the artist can be found here http://53c.deviantart.com/
I've thought about it, and considering my finances and generally how my lady would make eyebrows raise and judgments form from artists who don't get it; it's not something that I think I'm capable of doing with my present level of anxiety. I've strongly considered getting a 'half-daki' though, so commissioning a torso+head of her, and getting it printed onto a regular sized pillow. This also has the advantage of me not needing to go out and buy a body pillow, and being easier to hide from the judgmental eyes of family that I live with.
Got this drawn recently. Artist is kidakat I believe.
If you're still here yasuo I have this nice surprise for you.
skeb.jp is invaluable if you ever want illustrations commissioned, especially if your waifu is from a series that isn't recent. It's tied into Twitter's infrastructure and consists solely of Japanese artists. You find an artist you like, send a request, hope they accept it at your price point and wait until it's finished. I only use it to commission portraits, but I've seen dakimakura covers on the front page before.
ITT: Random /mai/-related posts... Share your daily waifu experience. I'll start: Since I've become so politically incorrect in every aspect, the other day I was watching fake-colored restored videos of the Third Reich days (the Zeppelin Field and old Hitler's discourses, actually interesting), and I got stuck around the subject of racial supremacy. I, to say it from the begining, by no means could consider myself belonging to a superior race, not physically, nor intellectually; but, if you allow me this time to consider the very best of germanic and japanese people (mostly from the north) as such, I arrived to the next conclusion: mai waifu is the perfect sample, as a combination, of such superior races. She has red/auburn/strawberry-blond (germanic) but straight (japanese) hair. She has pure blue (germanic) but slightly and beautifuly slanted (japanese) eyes. She has pale and lively (germanic) skin, but wich is all the same fair, smooth-faced and with no freckles or spots at all (japanese). She has a straight pointy nose and a strong chin (germanic), signs of aristocracy and character, but over a likely childish and innocent (japanese) face. She displays some precocious feminine exuberance (germanic) alright, but her general built is overall ectomorph: thigh and compact, likely short but with very low fat rate and proportionally long limbs (japanese). She possess, no doubt about it, the straightforwardness of her scientific/rational/empirical occidental background (germanic), at wich she, as a prodigy child, excels (greek arete: excellence, virtue, daring, bravery, conquest; occidental->germanic); but, ultimately, she heavily grounds her ethics around values such as honor and shame (japanese)... So, quite indisputably for my own standards, and as far as the eyes of my homunculus being can see, I actually have as my beloved and companion the finest lady on Earth. And it's all mine... undeserving lucky bastard.
>>21517 i bought it based on your advice, hopefully it gets here safely. youre right, even if it is expensive ill never see another get sold again.
>>21518 >your house's stance I tried asking my house, but it felt as though I was talking to a brick wall. Although more seriously, while I cannot speak for the rest of tc, I don't think there's anything wrong with listing multiple favorite characters. I think of my favorite characters as treasured friends, which isn't incompatible with having a beloved.Post edited on 25th Aug 2020, 2:38pm
>>21519 I've started aggressively buying merchandise within the past year when I noticed the dropoff in listings for my favorite anime. There seems to be a running cutoff of around 3-5 years for items being well-stocked before you're forced to buy second-hand. After that, there is a cutoff of around 12-15 years before it effectively vanishes online and only resurfaces whenever someone is selling their collection. I can almost guarantee you that if you wanted to buy that keychain in 2025, it would be almost impossible to find.
the waifu came home
Hello /mai/, I've been a member for over 10 years and rarely post and haven't been here in years. My loved one has fully internalized in my head and can even function in the real world. She even acts like and remembers everything from the series she's from, and knows more Japanese than me. This is my final goodbye to this community that has raised me to this point. She and her are one and we are together more than we ever have been. Your loved ones are valid.
See you on the other side, OP. I'm glad you were able to develop such a strong connection.
what is youre waifu's favourite things
Hello fellow Boatfucker! I'm happy Eugen got a husbando too. German shipgirls are the best in the world <3 in August 2020 Bismarck and me will be together for 4 years already.
>>21478 Sorry for the late reply (to put it mildly); I don't come on here very often. I'm really happy to finally find someone who loves Prinz's liebe Schwester! And you've been with her so long! I hope you'll tell us how your 4th anniversary goes. It'd be great to hear more from you, comrade.
where is that panel from?
>>21511 love hina
How does one cope after seeing disgusting porn of your waifu?
I try to forget about it and think of the good things of her instead, since the postive far outweighs the negative. As for >>21476, I'm pretty much the opposite. I'm around the liberal left section of the political spectrum, but I'd rather not be a cuckold.
On the rare occasion I have the misfortune of being exposed to porn that makes my stomach churn, I just look away and forget about it. I stay irked for a while, but it can't be helped. I have a couple of friends who have waifus, so I can talk to them if I'm feeling especially irked about something. >>21476 I'd be ecstatic to meet someone who also loves Prinz, but I don't want to hear about anyone using her as fap fodder. I'm certainly glad that people find her to be a cute and sexy girl (because she is) --- what I dislike is her being treated as a cum rag. It's the attitude the person has about her sexuality that matters.
>>21472 brain bleach - the recipe is one third gore, one third guro, and one third loud black metal. Dunno if it only works for me, but it gets unpleasant thoughts out of my head quite effectively. >>21476 >I see myself as pretty right wing conservative I would be, but every conservative I know seems very opposed to anime, and will assume it causes people to become trans. I have no idea what I am, though I've been through many political phases, I just want a comfy NEET society basically.
>>21512 >the recipe is one third gore, one third guro, and one third loud black metal you ok there, bro?
Post ITT when you find a new image of your waifu. For those with a waifu that's popular or gets tons of fanart daily/weekly, post your favorite of the new stuff. I love this one i found today, she's even holding a can of cocacola which is my favorite soda.
A small commission from a friend.
I like the lighting on this one. It's quite rare that I get to see her in her stage attire.

One of my most beloved of hobbies is scrounging through Google results for hours in hopes of finding just one barely relevant artifact of my waifu's show. Does anyone else do this? What are your favorite, most rarest findings? For me, it's: -A photograph someone took of their television featuring my waifu's show being interrupted with scrolling text on the bottom of the screen reporting on a massive earthquake that had just happened. -A video someone shot with a smartphone of a guitarist in a studio practicing and about to record my waifu's soundtrack. (Which happened to be used in one of my favorite episodes, so this was a double lucky find!) -Photographs of plastic cups and drink toppers with my waifu's face and logo printed on them some obscure coffee shop sold for only three months. Surprisingly, it was licensed. I have about two gigabytes of official pictures, video and website rips I've saved over the years, but those three are the crown jewels. Unrelated image.
>>20794 >I have about two gigabytes Luck you, I can't even fill 100 mb because of how little there is of non-official content.
>>20797 Oh, I hate fanart of my gal, personally. All of it. I only save official stuff. All two gigs are official. Official stuff can be rare, too. Like, for example, my waifu's voice actor made a video compilation to add to her professional portfolio demonstrating the voice range of my wife. And she uploaded it unlisted to YouTube and the only way to see it was to visit her blog that had very few subscribers. I'm sure the well has dried up completely for a lot of people's wives and mine will dry up soon, too. Maybe years down the line I'll learn to appreciate fanart for this reason, but right now, the once a month little official thing I'm able to find is holding me over.
A good way to do what OP says is just searching the official artist (or a dedicated fan-artist) in a booru or pixiv. Because sometimes she may not have a character tag there. Also keep an eye for stuff that resurfaces. One time I was browsing about mai waifu in a whim, and suddenly found that, just two days before, an old artbook in which she appears in got scanned
>>20794 Well, since April of this year my Kisaragi fanart folder has pretty much exploded, going from ~750 to OVER 2000 images thanks to me doing mangacaps of her, her source's artbook FINALLY getting scanned (pic related to it) and my increasingly obssessive methods of finding fanart of her. At this point I might as well have the single biggest image collection of her, with nearly over 20 TIMES that of Gelbooru's.
