You are out of touch with the culture it emerges in and aren't even fluent in the language so a gag that mixes a pop culture reference, a classicsl literature reference, and five acts of wordplay comes accross to you as someone just holding up a salmon and saying "maybe some seafood would cheer you up" while making a silly face

Yeah but I figured going out of my way to make it seem less weeb would just make it more weeb .
I'm not saying Japanese is the best humor in the world (scottish is), but that its inevitable the people who don't need 4/5ths of every joke explained to them are gonna find it funnier than foreigners who do

If I don't know how genki she is I won't be able to tell how much genki she can add to son gokuu's genki dama

The only manga that made me genuinely laugh was Cromartie Highschool
Charles James
there's no laugh track
David Nguyen

Kevin Garcia
Scottish people are the biggest joke in the world

I think it's really funny, I can't even count the number of series and manga that have made me laugh, while my country's humour is usually pretty bad, tasteless and completely unintelilligible for a foreigner. There's a reason anime humour works more or less everywhere.

I hope the straight man explains in detail just why the situation is strange and how it should normally be. That makes the joke really funny.
Angel Bailey
I liked when kagura made fun of whatshisname glasses man for being the straight man, and then he was the straight man about being the straight man
Brandon Young
Chink comedy is decent, as for gooks I have no idea.
Levi Russell
The tsukkomi's overreaction makes him as much the butt of the joke as the boke.
Jonathan Perry
100% agree with this, although I think it's just because the timing and panelling is great
Cameron Carter
They never evolved past early 20th century humor.
Adrian Jackson
What's 21th century humor?
Leo Kelly
Japanese humour works really well if it's absurdist or simple in execution, Nichijou, Inferno Cop and Ninja Slayer were great
William Lopez
I like short cuts (scan is left to right).

>Why do I not understand the humor of a people who's language I do not speak and who's culture I am not apart of
Its quite the mystery
I doubt it will ever be solved
