Also the Konata 31 spinoff is written and illustrated by a different artist. I just say she's 31 because since it was announced a few years ago that's been my headcanon age for her.

Illiterate moron. If we're talking about things that are Japanese fascist propaganda that people don't seen to notice, Muv Luv Alternative comes to mind.

Reminder that female japanese school uniforms are deliberately modeled after male british naval uniforms.

The show was a subversion of the standard mecha narrative that only shows it's true colors in the last 2 episodes of the series. Your mother holds the same opinion I did when I was young teenager watching it on toonami/adult swim. She hasn't been bombarded by the tropes and standards of the giant robot show enough to give a shit about this show. You think it's interesting because you are the target audience anno is telling to 'touch grass'. Your mom just thinks the giant robot cartoon fights is cool.

>>29145
>>29145
>d she liked the beginning more (a very interesting opinion imo
You mean the correct one. They ran out of budget and time half way through the show and that's why they eventually give up on animation and it turns into a slideshow with narration. That part is objectively kinda shit for that reason.

Sounds like your parents are not very smart but at least they watch with you. I never got mine to.

>>29163
That shit is a myth made up in western circles because anime fans are too plebeian to understand deliberate simplicity for artistic reasons and still believe in retard shit such as objectivity in art.

>Nobuhiro Watsuki tells police “I liked girls between the ages of upper elementary school students to about the second year of junior high.”
no need for the walls of text, he was literally found guilty for it and pleaded guilty, and that's all there is to it https://soranews24.com/2017/11/22/creator-of-rurouni-kenshin-anime-manga-admits-to-possession-of-child-pornography/

>>28902
Alright good enough source even though they are registered in California, since I don't want to bother looking deeper right now and it is technically Japanese owned. That does not negate the points I made on the issue of this kind of obsession. Also 2017? It has been that long I've been hearing people bring this up ?

>>28904
Nta but I haven't heard jack about this case since 2017 till it was brought up here

>>28902
I didn't understand why the amount of outrage about this at the time, he didn't hurt anyone, he legally bought child porn before it was criminalized in japan, and then got arrested for possessing it after it was made contraband, was judged guilty, and paid the fine. It's really just that mundane.

I remember seeing western anime fans all over the internet emoting nonsense like "IM NEVER GONNA BE ABLE TO WATCH RURONI KENSHIN AGAIN UGH I THINK IMA GONNA BE SICK!!1!!11" Like why should that even matter to your perception of a fictional story about something completely unrelated, like a meiji era swordsman? Mental illness. Also I remember seeing people demand a boycot of all his past and future works, as well as the works of anyone who still associated with him, or didn't "denounce" him which I'm sure was just more virtue signaling, because that would mean basically putting off watching anime or reading manga all together lol

>>29179
Yes, back in the 2000s and earlier 2010s before all this brainwashing of social media algorithms no one would have gave a damn. I hate this timeline of fake morality.

>replies anyway talking about schizophrenic episodes

>>29141
Too bad because he's right

>>29138
>didn't watch a great show
>because of the annoying haters, not even the fans (?????)
>says the OP is the one assuming things anyway
>says the OP is wrong about the child nudity being just a fetish anyway
>says the OP is moralizing when their post does no such thing
How did you manage to be wrong on every single count?

>>29156
I love Made in Abyss and I just ignore the author's fetishes but they truly serve no artistic purpose. The biggest tell is that those moments are randomly scattered through the story. If the nudity is meant to highlight their innocence or vulnerability then it would be concentrated in significant moments like when they're in danger. If the constant peeing is meant to highlight that the life of delvers is dirty and primal then there would be other hints at this, like, the characters should at least have dirt in their faces far more often. It's just a fetish, the author likes seeing little girls pissing, that's it.

>>29176
How can you possibly be certain the of the authors fetishes, regardless of whether or not you watched this show?

>>29048
Why not try and have a little fun while you're here

>>29054
Even he can't instant transmission beyond the breadth of buddhas palm.

>>29047
Demigod? Both characters meet that criteria functionally speaking regardless. What I do want to know is who is better at fighting given that Diana is like superman if superman was actually a competent and skilled fighter.

>>29065
Goku is better at fighting since he's implied to be a literal savant at martial arts and Diana isn't. If the setting was a normal-ass non-lethal tournament with rules and stuff, Goku would win.

Will they have sex? That's all I really care about.

>>28969
thanks

i know, i mistyped but kept it because i though it was a funny mixup, anyways maduro did call someone a faggot i think, so not suprised about his moral ramblings.
i wish there was more latam leftists who are genuinely militantly materialist, i guess diaz-canel is.

Bump

There was a porn thread over here all this time?

>>29137
Dude, there's some crazy shit on this site from old threads that just never got bumped in 4-5 years. Lolicon, the n-word from before it got filtered, etc.

OP sounds underage, even for 2022 standards
all of those are basic self-actualization and coming of age cringe. the joker is literally better, at least the first part, because the (well delivered) underlying premise is more socially conscious

>>26676
Yukio Mishima is goated though. I consider him the greatest Japanese romantic. I know leftychuds don't like romanticism and prefer social conscious Gorkyite short stories featuring around a dead end prole as their self insert character but Mishima is much more complicated than the epic muscular samurai western fascists potrayed him as

The Welcome to the NHK novel is the best version of all Welcome to the NHK output. If you haven't read the book, or listened to the fan-made audiobook, you're missing out, the characters are more detailed, more realistic, and the general story just makes more sense than both the anime or the manga.

Do not read an anime called NHK.
I was talking to my white friend the other day and he sent me three animes only labeled NHK.
I read the first one and I was like "YOOOOOOukoso hitoribocchi"

If you it to mean that… But you don't have to be part of the intended audience to like something.

A girl that is into cosplay meets a guy has experience sewing clothes, styling wigs and emulating make-up because he's training to become the heir to the family workshop that makes traditional dolls. This last detail is important because one of the premises of the show is that he isn't less of a man because he's into unconventional fashion design, just like the girl isn't bad just because she works with her body (or for being a sex worker, if you consider グラビア, a genre of japanese softcore porn, a form of sex work, as some people do). The fact that it is traditional dolls is also important because it undermines that idealized image of the past where "men were real men", which is only a projection of our current social expectations.

Bear in mind that many people resent both the manga/anime and the female author because it doesn't address reality nor the cliche fantasies that are commonly reproduced (sometimes "critically") in western media: her ideal boyfriend isn't really confident or assertive, and he's definitely not intimidating nor demeaning. If you pay attention to the critics, their point of contention is that her work is too self-indulging, both for men and women, and that it's unrealistic to actually like and eroticize non-toxic masculinity and non-toxic relationships.

Unfamiliar with that move. Does it beat dio’s time stop hack?

>>29130
nullify any action an ennemy can take against it by reverting back all the consequences (litteral plot armor deluxe) + if you get "killed" by it,you're trapped into a permanent loop of dying and reviving in different scenarios.
Also it does those things automonously if it has to,it doesn't need to be done willingly by the user (your death gets also reverted)
not even the stupidest stand in the jojo media universe btw,the video game one for Dio is worse (and they still beat him because "it's the same as Star Platinum" so Jotaro also get the powers)

I'm gonna add some interesting one I remembered :

Infinity from Nanatsu no Taizai,access to infinite mana + can make spell duration infinite or even continuously pour mana into it to make it stronger over time + doesn't stop with the user death.

Accelerator From Toaru Majutsu no Index : at some point it can be used to manipulate "vectors" in the abstract,speed,movement,the direction of something,weight,temperature,this can be used to rewrite the brain electronic signals to mind hack and control people btw. This ONLY works on things he physically touch tho,works through clothes,and everything must be done directly and precisely by calculations in his brain (and a network of super computers he gets access to later I think ?)

"All fiction" from Medaka Box,can erase anything by making them a "nothing",something that didn't exist,including the death of him or someone else,this has no limit (expect on suppressing other powers acquired through trauma specifically) and is supposedly very trigger happy,if you think that something shouldn't exist,it will disappear (later he gets the ability to bring back erased things,but he litterally has never used it)

>>29131
Sounds like a souped up version of skypeia’s reject dials. As for the third power, zenos erasure spell is more powerful by being absolute
