7:10 p.m., the anime Brahmin takes his backpack and leaves his company. Today is his rare opportunity to not have overtime works. However, he still delays his leaving time for 40 minutes. Because two anime Vaishya have entered his online anime discussion group. He has opened up the group for five years and put all his efforts into the group. "The group members should be anime Brahmin and anime Kshatriya only." He thought. The anime Vaishya irriate anime Brahmin at almost the moment when they joined the group. They crazily post tons of Cosplay photos and doujin pictures, interrupt the current event "3rd communication meeting of Nakamura Yutaka's fans".



Getting an invitation is the only way to join his group. When he is about to question who brought the two people to his honourable group chat, admin anime Kshatriya number one sends his a private message. Anime Vaishya number one is a famous internet celebrity, Cosplayer, and anime-style dancer. Vaishya number one saw the long tweet about anime analysis written by anime Brahmin (68 shares, the highest number in history) and she became interested in it. Kshatriya number one doesn't want to let the chance of getting closer to popular girls go. "She even played the visual novel of White Album 2, it's rare, isn't it? She even cosplayed as Setsuna:)! She just wanna learn some anime things from our group, I will tell her the rules." He told anime Brahmin. Anime Vaishya number two is the friend of Vaishya number one, "She plays Kancolle and Azur Lane, but I'm not sure how well she plays."



It's been a long time since anime Brahmin knows anime Kshatriya number one. Until today, he finally knows that even though anime Kshatriya number one says he hates the girls from the realistic world every time, he actually likes them. Anime Brahmin decides to not take actions for now. Anyways, the two anime Vaishya are gonna find they can't fit in the environment of his group. And they will stop posting pictures, or even leave the group.



7:20 p.m., the anime Brahmin meets two of his colleagues in the crowded subway. Both of them are anime Dalit. They are talking about One Piece enthusiastically. But anime Brahmin doesn't say anything from beginning to the end. When they arrive at the destination, anime Dalit number one pats anime Brahmin's shoulder, and says:"Looks like you doesn't like anime, do ya? Some anime are amazing though, not only for children to watch. Don't be so old-fashioned! I recommend ya to watch One Piece. It's the best anime even made!" Anime Brahmin smiles. He uses default computer desktop in the workplace, and sets his cell phone background and ringtone as default as well. Nobody would know, in fact, he is an anime Brahmin.



"How long is the manga until now?" He asks anime Dalit number one. "Ugh...It's about eight hundred episodes, I guess?" Anime Dalit number one turns anime Dalit number two uncertainly. "No, no. It's thousands of episodes at least." Anime Dalit number two replies with confidence.



8:17 p.m., Anime Brahmin takes his cup noodles and sits back in front of his personal computer. He receives his mom's call. She says:"My friend has introduced you a girl. She likes anime, the same as you. She is a nice girl, and even can cook, just a little fat. I have sent her number to you. Chat with her, and hurry up, date with her this weekend. You are 33 years old now. You should understand what's the best for your future. Get married as soon as possible!" Anime Brahmin takes a glance to the photo his mom sent to him. That's a girl that holds a figure of Kuroko no Basket, and wears Lolita clothes. She is two times fatter than anime Brahmin, interestingly.



9:33 p.m., after checking the comments of his anime featured articles, and arguing with those who questions him and claims themselves as anime Brahmin shortly, anime Brahmin opens his group chat again. Surprisingly, he finds the two anime Vaishya has been get along with other group members very well. Anime Kshatriya number one is loyally posting the Cosplay pictures of anime Vaishya number one and the other members is enthusiastically exchanging Twitter accounts with the anime Vaishya. Anime Brahmin clicks on anime Vaishya number one's Twitter, and he finds her number of followers is 63 times his professional anime analysis account's. He slides to view several photos of anime Vaishya number one, and comfort himself:"These are all about Photoshop and filters, lol, the otaku that post comments below are so poor. But...if her tits are real, then probably it's not too bad."



Seeing the anime Brahmin is online, anime Vaishya number one sends him a greeting. "Hey, I have seen your anime article, wow it's so great!" Anime Brahmin ignores her, but he feels pleased inside his heart. "Look, I'm not that poor to date those fatties."



10 p.m., Anime Brahmin opens his "Recommendations of Japanese animation milestones part one" video on YouTube that was uploaded a week ago, there are three new comments. Same as the previous twenty something comments, they are all made by anime Shudra. "Why is there no Gintama?" The comments ask.



10:11 p.m., anime Vaishya number two asks anime Brahmin:"Is your profile picture Gundam?" "No, it's Getter."



10:30 p.m., people in the group begin to exchange their account of Fate Grand Order of North American server. "Wow, I'm also a hardcore fan of Type-Moon!" anime Vaishya number two starts to spam emojis of Fate Grand Order. "But I like Fate Zero the best! What a masterpiece! Urobuchi Gen is legendary!" Anime Vaishya number one replies.



Anime Brahmin laughs at them in his heart. "When I held a Japanese dictionary, tried so hard and struggled but enjoyed playing Tsukihime, you most likely didn't even know how to write the word 'moon' yet, you play a trashy mobile game and call yourself TM hardcore fan? Haha, what a joke, how dare you?" He thought.



"Do you play FGO?" Anime Vaishya number one asks anime Brahmin. "No I don't." Anime Brahmin answers quickly, he hates the decision of adapting Fate series to a game. There are so many Shudra and Vaishya in the fanbase of Fate series nowadays. However, he hates Fate Grand Order's North American server stronger, of course.



He will continue to not play games on mobile phone, he only plays his honourable single-player games and home consoles. Even if the game companies come up with new mobile games again and again, that only proves they get worse.



10:35 p.m., anime Brahmin finds himself is not able to say anything with the topic being discussed for the first time. He wants to tell the people not to discuss topic that has no relation to anime and manga, but his messages rapidly disappear in the huge spam. He has never seen the message number grows so fast.



He closes the group chat, and takes a look at anime Vaishya number one's Twitter. In the people who tags her, and the people she tags, he finds five or six people that might be her boyfriend. The competition is too hard for him, anime Brahmin supposes.



11:09 p.m., anime Brahmin goes onto his common used Japanese anime news websites, he chooses his words carefully, makes comments and shares the news. He doesn't want the Japanese to find out he is a foreigner.



11:24 p.m., the group chat finally finishes talking about FGO, instead, they begin to talk about new seasonal anime. However, anime Brahmin still cannot say anything. He finds he has not seen a single seasonal anime they watch. These anime don't have any technical content, they have low quality and boring plots, the art is lazy, and the series compositions are some famous sucker. He tries to obtain a space from the flooding of information, and uselessly sends news from Twitter, Niconico, and 2channel, but nobody answers him.



Finally, he can not stand with it anymore. "Why the hell do ya even watch those garbage?"

"I watch these all the time, this spring is the best anime season ever in history!" Anime Kshatriya number two says, he has been joined the group for a year. "Just because you call them garbage, I don't mention them often because I don't wanna be an anime Vaishya in people's eyes."

And then, anime Kshatriya number three appears. He says:"If you haven't seen these anime, how do you know if it's bad?"

"We definitely have no need to see these garbage anime since they are already garbage!"

Anime Brahmin feels that it's a shame for this group chat to discuss these trashy anime, he cannot hold himself back and begin to swear. The group is spammed by his angry messages at once,

Anime Kshatriya number one sends a message to him,"Anime Vaishya number one asks me, as the creator of a professional anime group, how do you haven't seen Anime X, Anime Y, and Anime Z? She is even questioning about the authorities of our group. Stop it!" But anime Brahmin ignores it.



12:00, anime Vaishya number one and two both leave the group. 1:12 a.m., anime Kshatriya number four messages anime Brahmin. He is the second admin of the group and has not been active in the group for a long time. He says to anime Brahmin:"Anime Kshatriya number one told me, you made a big mess in the group today, right? You should look at the outside world now. Have you found that there are fewer and fewer anime fans that can communicate with you in the same topic ?"



"I don't care." Anime Brahmin said, he is a honourable Brahmin, why does he care what other people think?

"But now, anime Vaishya and anime Shudra are everywhere."

"So what?"

"Several years ago, you laughed at the fans of Naruto, One Piece, Conan, Bleach, and Gintama. Later, you laughed at the fans of AoT, Tokyo Ghoul, and Lovelive. But what about now? Do ya know which anime are most popular among anime Shudra now? Do ya know which seiyuu are most favourited now?"

Anime Brahmin falls into silence. When was the last time he completed a seasonal anime? He didn't remember anymore. Every one or two years, Seiyuu industry changes hugely. Back then, he could identify every seiyuu just by their sounds, but now, he couldn't anymore. All of his one hundred figures never have a single anime character from the anime of recent two years. He stays with those Years of essence, wonderful fragments, inside news and industry information. He remembers his good old days. A year after a year, he receives only disappointment when watching seasonal anime, and sighs:"Yeah, the industry is over."But why, freaking why, would people enjoy the anime nowadays?

"I don't know." Anime Brahmin tells the truth.

"Me neither, I haven't lived anime life for a long time. Possibly is not the industry is over is our era has passed."



Anime Brahmin thinks for the whole night and disbands the group chat. Probably, he considers himself as a Brahmin, but he is a Dalit instead. From now on, he will to be an anime Brahmin, or he will not. Who knows?
