>>1190904No but really.
In CWC's name, 'chan' is just short for Chandler.
In 4chan, the 'chan' is just borrowed from 2chan where it's short for channel.
The term 'channel' used to refer to anonymous BBS dates at least back to 2ch, which while it was the first one to not be hostile towards fans of anime it's not exactly dedicated to the art either.
And finally, thinking that the chan honorific is an anime thing is like thinking that wind is caused by trees moving.
Now, I'll go back to yelling at this here German frogposter.
