Around the time Azumaga Daioh's "waifu" meme really took off in the early 2000s, there was a steep increase in waifu moeblob otaku pandering trash being churned out to maximize profits (otakus buy the merch) and a decline in the prioritizing or production of most anything else.

azumanga daioh is the watchmen of anime

How it started: :meow-melt:
How it's going: :awooga:
i don't know if azuma-sensei is ashamed of the consequences of his actions, but he should be.
