What a complete and utter waste of ambition.

A 12-year-old rode in on a fucking big wheel?

Yep. Damn he's better than me. I can only do a headspin in only 5 secs that's it.

Breakdancing Asians, heh.

They always congregate in Tennoji, but the conundrum is that as Japanese people are so shy that they just sit there with their shitty music and sheets of cardboard looking like they might be getting ready to do it, but never actually start.

They are koreans hehe.

You mean keke.

Koreans isn't really the correct name for them. It's what westerners call them.

China - Zhongguo
Korea - Hangul
Japan - Nihon or Nippon

Breakdancing (Bboying) is really popular in Asia. The majority of breakdancers nowadays are from there. We got asian style breaking or moves created by asians themselves.

No they're pretty damn correct, please stop being a weeaboo for once.

Breakdancing died with the 80s. Only Paul Reubens did it well, and with a reason.

Why the fuck is that kid riding a big wheel? He looks like he's about 6, not 12.

Yeah, and the correct name for a German is Deutsch, a Finn is Suomalaiset, and a Swede is Svenskar. English has a history of using seperate demonyms for non-Romantic societies.

It's not dead, it's in a coma and it's evolving.

Same way for every language. We need not muddle things more than they already are. Should we start spaeking in Japanese every time we talk about Japan?

And Darkstalkers died with the 90s.

Still, the only redeemable incarnation of breakdancing was breakdance fighting.

All things aside, I still fail to see the weaboo = otaku thing. Did I miss some hidden meaning in the original PBF strip?

It was a 4chan wordfilter back when a moderator called "Snacks" was on /b/. He changed the word "wapanese" to "weeaboo" for lol and as a homage to the comic. it kinda stuck and since then has been the word for "white person trying to be asian" and also illustrates the attitude /b/ has toward weeaboos: they shall be spanked.

Hehe I am asian. Also check out born floor controllers crew, very sick european baby bboys. That kid in the red looks like a midget to me lol.

Yep, it's those media and press people hehe. Breakking died cuz the media didn't care about the dance part of the dance. Then people started to think breaking was all about headspins and stupid flips. Without dancing to beat, toprocking, footworking, ending with freezes, and having their own style of breaking, that isn't bboying/breaking. An example of the motto of the dance and hip hop is "Fight with creativity, not violence."
