Is there a character that could even possibly EVEN TOUCH Madara Uchiha? Let alone defeat him. And I'm not talking about Edo Tensei Uchiha Madara. I'm not talking about Gedou Rinne Tensei Uchiha Madara either. Hell, I'm not even talking about Juubi Jinchuuriki Gedou Rinne Tensei Uchiha Madara with the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan and Rinnegan doujutsus (with the rikodou abilities and being capable of both Amateratsu and Tsukuyomi genjutsu), equipped with his Gunbai, a perfect Susano'o, control of the juubi and Gedou Mazou, with Hashirama Senju's DNA implanted in him so he has mokuton kekkei genkai and can perform yin yang release ninjutsu while being an expert in kenjutsu and taijutsu. I’m also not talking about Kono Yo no Kyūseishu Futarime no Rikudō Juubi Jinchuuriki Gedou Rinne Tensei Uchiha Madara with the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan (which is capable of Enton Amaterasu, Izanagi, Izanami and the Tsyukuyomi Genjutsu), his two original Rinnegan (which grant him Chikushōdō, Shuradō, Tendō, Ningendō, Jigokudō, Gakidō, Gedō, Banshō Ten’in, Chibaku Tensei, Shinra Tensei, Tengai Shinsei and Banbutsu Sōzō) and a third Tomoe Rinnegan on his forehead, capable of using Katon, Fūton, Raiton, Doton, Suiton, Mokuton, Ranton, Inton, Yōton and even Onmyōton Jutsu, equipped with his Gunbai(capable of using Uchihagaeshi) and a Shakujō because he is a master in kenjutsu and taijutsu, a perfect Susano’o (that can use Yasaka no Magatama ), control of both the Juubi and the Gedou Mazou, with Hashirama Senju’s DNA and face implanted on his chest, his four Rinbo Hengoku Clones guarding him and nine Gudōdama floating behind him AFTER he absorbed Senjutsu from the First Hokage, entered Rikudō Senjutsu Mode, cast Mugen Tsukuyomi on everybody and used Shin: Jukai Kōtan so he can use their Chakra while they are under Genjutsu.

This. Especially the fact that Orochimaru isn’t punished
Danzo isn’t properly punished either. It had to take Sasuke to kill him

Every time I open this thread when it bumps I regret it because it's just more pseudo-intellectual media illiteracy pretending to be a political analysis. Have any of you (at the very least) read Das Kapital and its analyses of socio-economics relative to historical dialectics? Or Lenin's works? Because this all reads like liberal reddit post regurgitation where "everything is fasheest!"

>>29097
>because there's no real critique about it
What fucking critique is there to be had you nimrod? It's traumatic and fucked up and terrible for population demographics to have children go out and murder people their own age or older, or younger, but because human strife and the cycle of hatred are perpetual, people continue doing it, inflicting generational trauma onto the next set. It's not that fucking difficult to understand when we get how utilitarian things are from the very start. Naruto is a literal HUMAN SACRIFICE, it's what Jinchuriki means. Gaara is one too, suffering from his father's decision. Sasuke, Haku etc.
>The fascist deep state CIA part of Konoha does cause a lot of the conflict in the narrative, but this never leads to the title character to have any critique of the system
The deep state is just another part of the broader issue and basis of shinobi life founded in distrust and death. Konoha was founded with the idea of uniting people but was unable to completely realize the purpose of it, even if it reduced how bad things were (see Warring Clans era vs Nation states era) which itself is a reflection of Japanese and other countries histories, When these countries solidified things were imperfect and flawed, but in a grand scheme were an improvement over the previous system, i.e. socio-economic progression of dialectics.
>Naruto never truly confronts
Yes he does, just not how every edgy fanfic-writing teenager wanted him to. He confronts both the consequences and fundamentally leads to a change by breaking the cycle of self-perpetuation. It is MEANT to be idealistic because that's the point.

> the series handles the Uchiha clan—they’re massacred by their own government for fear of rebellion, and the story ultimately justifies it as a “necessary evil” for the stability of the village.
A privileged, "royal blood"-type clan (who are also the police force BTW) plans to murder and take over the village in a bloody coup that involves killing the Hokage and subjugating the other clans under themselves because they "the Uchiha" are superior with their Sharingan and whatnot. This isn't some grassroots revolution. This is essentially bourgs unhappy with other bourgs not stroking their ego enough and preparing to enact a fascist coup. The coup would have killed more shinobi and done more damage to the overall village and its people than simply eliminating the Uchiha clan, which is a extremely utilitarian but ultimately valid political position. They're not some peaceful city, it's a militaristic city-state that is in a tense cold war with others militaristic city states and the weaker they are the more likely the war turns hot and countless lives are lost fighting another Great War, which means even MORE Konoha people dying.
TL;DR: a bad peace with better than a "good" war more often than not.
>The main character praises Itachi straight up, after learning the truth.
He respects Itachi as an individual because he recognizes that the world he is in, is that twisted and because Itachi embodied what shinobi means in the old system; being a tool, putting aside subjective emotions and removing a threat to the village and its people, sacrificing himself and his family with unyielding commitment and with a plan to make sure that it was not in vain (to stop Madara).

I'm arguing this as someone that entirely dislikes the retcon of Itachi's reveal and making him into a tragic figure and not a cold-blooded mass-murderer, because I still recognize the idea it represents.

>>29100
Utterly inane bullshit.
>haku, a boy that becomes trans
Haku didn't become trans nor was he ever implied to be. He doesn't use female pronouns or even wear definitively female clothing. Naruto thinks he's a girl because it's a common anime gag about traps which refers to crossdressers and bishounens, which reflects Japanese culture seeing androgynous, youthful traits as desirable.
>dies because he got groomed
That's the point you fucking retard, he dies because of the society he was born into, a society that fears and hates bloodline limits to the point that his own father tried to kill him, a society where being a shinobi is to be a living tool for whatever mission they are assigned, even if that means to forfeit their lives.
>Orochimaru, whose first appearance is literally impersonating a woman and kissing sasuke
Biting the shoulder is not a kiss you nimrod, it's a snake motif. Impersonating a woman has nothing to do with him being or not being gay, but him being a sneaky bastard able to hide in plain site. The 'woman' we see in the Forest of Death is quite androgynous and could pass for an effeminate man, it's not emphasized whatsoever.
>"his curse" (the gay virus)
You sound like those projecting bug-chasers in denial.
>hint that he groomed kabuto
He did, because that's the point.
>his first off-screen mention is to imply that he molested anko
That's very much up to interpretation but even if it is, what the fuck is that an attack against? Paedophiles? Because otherwise you sound like a schizo.

>Haku is an MtF trans

Where do you get this idea?

>and then dies because he got groomed by a psychopath


Zabuza is a sociopath, not a psychopath. Zabuza even cried over Hakus death.

Could this be the reintroduction thread or familiar?
I like really the old shoujo\manga art-style, but I'm frankly not very picky about stuff I decide to watch; if I really were to describe my taste it likely would be basically older anime, since the art-style of newer shows isn't as attractive to me these days. I suppose I like to watch shounen anime for amusement sometimes. Yet hyper-moe stuff isn't that zany nowadays… guess the protocommunistz=Puritans stuff is real.

Are there any animes about cold war you would recommend? It does not have to be %100 realistic. I just want your ideas. Which one will give the best experience? I would be very happy if you recommend one of them

“The Place Promised in Our Early Days” isn’t exactly about the Cold War, but in an alternate universe where Japan gets divided into a Russian-occupied north and American-occupied south, or kind of.

“Master Keaton” by Naoki Urasawa is a good period anime, although its setting is mostly cold-war era Europe. Monster, by the same author, is technically set after the fall of the Berlin Wall, but much of its story is rooted in the Cold War so I think that counts, and so are 20th century boys and Asadora! albeit the two are centred in Japan compared to the earlier works.

If you just want espionage and spies, then you may like:
Phantom: Requiem for the Phantom

I guess there’s Black Lagoon too since many scenes feature flashbacks from the Cold War.

Well, this isn't technically relevant in the strictest sense, but the Bubblegum Crisis OVAs reference the existence of the USSR, which is something that I had always found funny.

There's a sharingan that tells you who is a rightoid and instantly kills them there's also a special greatsword that lenin wields

Marx, Engels, Lenin, Mao, and Castro are brought back to life and survive together on a deserted island in a cool training arc. They come back super jacked and start organizing the greatest bank robbery in history to fund a new revolution

There will also be a sequel series where alien capitalists come to earth and our protagonists must fight them in a tournament arc.

There's a beach episode with alunya and grace

The main villain is Xarm, marx's evil brother who is a neo-liberal and has super powers. He was sealed away for 200 years but survived because he's a vampire.

was thinking about how ive never seen an anime with legitimately criminal protags. every "crime" anime either revolves around A. vigilantes or B. criminals targeting other criminals, aka its easily justifiable and theres no real dilemmas. no drug dealers, no robbers, no organ thieves etc
great pretender almost did this in the first episode with the protag being a legitimate convict who scams civilians. then they said "actually now he works for an informal looney tunes crime syndicate that somehow has hundreds of actors on their payroll and can do literally anything lmao" which was super lame

Most yaoi stories don’t take place in high school what has talking about?
Most are office workers or college students or fanfiction of popular shonen franchises.

Scattered musings:
Imageboards usually function very much like how the ideal liberal and capitalist society is supposed to do so. The basic premise is that of super atomized individuals who are not initially subject to any obligation or responsibility, and the default assumption is that any rule is an inherently unjust restriction of liberty. And liberty, as understood by most chan-cels, is thought of as the right to practice the most depraved of their desires, the license to play out the fantasies of decadent and corrupted aristocrats untempered by the considerations of overall sociality, which is assumed to be inherently nonexistent except under the explicit reign of the "open society" (total bourgeois supremacy).
Yet like liberal society the preeminent assumptions of the imageboard culture don't truly lead to some sort of utopia of liberated "individuals" but instead perverted, Epstein-world fascimile of real society. The positioning of libertarian ideology as the hegemonic only leads to the oppressive, anarchic caprice of both the moderation staff and the userbase, in war of all against all. The anonymity which was supposed to encourage people to speak freely gives way to the monolithization of "4chan culture" as unavoidably the folks try to form a sociality, yet since the lack of names and the lax enforcement of rules leaves the userbase without any real stake in the game the "culture" descends into nihilistic rebellion. The ubiquity of nihilism in these spaces naturally leads to the mindset of fascism, since if the only thing one can do is engage in vulgar rebellion, eventually nothing is sacred, and the "lesson" is that only brute force matters, since any imposition of regulation is assumed to be tyrannous. Thus the people who claim that places like 4chan were hijacked by Nazis are not really dialectical in their analysis of the situation. Is it really that surprising that many of these forums degrade into places stuffed with pornography and hate?
Such is as Engels said.

Irony is, most chancels are faux libertines

They’re actually the most square, prudish sort of people
Their only depravity is in fantasy only
But nowadays even they are thought policing of fantasies

You’re wrong

Ideal capitalist/liberal societies are all about responsibility and obligation. Just not practical types. And they’re all conditional and restrictive of personal liberties


What you’re describing is a libertarian society that may not be fully capitalist

>>10491
Culture of animation and similar is not always fascist although, Cam's comment about porn from fascism sort of applies to several sorts of anime, such as the super moe variety, which are borderline pornographic.
>counter-culture
Weeell to be fair most counter-culture is not really politically socialist in actual meaningful way. Really the whole schtick around these subcultures is that they are postmodern phenomena that responses to the failure of the old narrative, which is somewhat tragic when one considers how some Japanese ultra-leftists ꟙtarted producing manga after getting arrested over adventurism; they may have failed the revolution, but at least they could draw out the fantasy. To be fair to the Japanese nevertheless at the least they put their labor into consoomer culture instead of mostly into identity stuff as the Americans dove.
In the Western world you could also argue that the consoomer mindset is precisely that of people divorced from the actual production of the necessities in society.

File: 1784844201350-5.jpeg (145.51 KB, 740x998, IMG_7351.jpeg)

The lore in Evangelion doesn’t matter. It’s just a character study with sci-fi window dressing that’s paying self-aware homage to cynical 80s mecha.

It’s like trying to piece together the Twin Peaks lore, you’re missing the point by being a pedant over shit the filmmakers consciously viewed as window dressing. Evangelion is mecha for depressed kids and arthouse weirdos, and that’s fine. That’s what made it unique.

Let it be instead of trying to prove you’re more clever than a depressed autistic guy’s pet therapy project

man PEOPLE NEED TO TAKE FUCKING SHOWERS. Getting hit by waves of STINK and the worst part was it was intermittent like the cloud was bouncing off the walls like the dvd screen saving screens while watching EoE. And people stayed silent throughout. unfortunate!
