It's a pretentious snorefest that's for sure. Babby's first "tragedy" manga.

Yuru Camp S3 was pretty good despite the artstyle change.

I've lost my taste for the majority of these genres, but one I found quite sweet and simple was Space Family Carlvinson

I like the moekko archetype when it's not overdone but tbh I don't like CGDCT and SoL because there are no stakes and nothing interesting ever happens. You can only keep my attention with cuteness for so long. Maybe my attention span is fucked or maybe I'm allergic to sweetness overdose. Or maybe I'm just a neurotic dopamine junkie who cannot take a rest ever.

>>17755
Tbh i like the ones that have more than just SoL
Like girls last tour or yokohama is inherently more interesting to me than something like Non Non Biyori

It's designed to be uberedgy slop, which has a certain kind of appeal. Personally I like stories with villain protagonists. Naofumi kind of tries to act like one but imo he's too much of a pussy to commit to the bit.

>>25385
Egdy has its appeal, slop does not. Or I guess it does to some people, but I reserve my right to critique. Edginess is supposed to be violation of conventions, but fetishistic power fantasy is ironically the most conventional kind of clique in the industry.

>>25376 only good part was when the princess' sister got her pussy ate and it looked like she may possibly pissed herself. Other than that who cares

Shields hero problem is 90% is filler
Only the start (s1) and ending (naofumi returns) matter

Some people just like to watch the world burn.

Heres a nice read on Light's mistakes:

I like batman too, but I think there is some flirtation with fascistic politics in the works depending who writes the plot. I personally think that most of the criticism could be “fixed” if batman media stopped bringing back the super villians for every days or making gotham “cursed” to be forever corrupt.

This Gwern person is such a nerd

It's worth considering that it was published in shonen jump.
It's a fun dynamic and drama but it's not supossed to be taken seriously onto a extreme

But yes I agree, Sylvia is best wife of the series.

The Kenosha kid is back?

Please, give this series a chance. It's hilarious.

>It seems in the West the strategy for trans and LGBT promotion has been the libertine direction.
Nah, the American feminists are turning back to socially conservative policies like banning porn for example. The only major libertine American party is the Libertarian Party, and it barely gets any votes. The only reason that the Pubs and the Dems aren't as censorious is because the more censorious factions within them (like the Christian right and Hillary Clinton) can't actually get elected. The same as with JCP funnily enough.

I think putting a teapot on the Jupiter's orbit will require a lot of resources. And why would the government hide this? It's just a teapot. 😜

>>26040
It's one thing to talk about anime porn, but JAV is extremely exploitative and like literally everyone knows this. Just because one person said they didn't have that experience doesn't mean it isn't underage sex trafficking for many.

I just like that their tits are huge to a fictional degree. No way to experience such honkers irl.

>>26050
>huge to a fictional degree
They're not even as big as Hitomi Tanaka's tits, wdym?

1999 HXH is objectively better than the 2011 vers.

1) The art and mood building is much better
2) Kite introduced at the beginning
3) Killua and Kurapika get multiple designs
4) Characters are built upon in a meaningful way through filler
5) OP/EDs are gorgeous and use amazing music

>b-but 1999 has filler!!!11!@!
Newsflash: IF THE FILLER IS GOOD THEN WHO THE FUCK CARES? The three episode filler-arc in the middle of the hunter exam arc was masterfully done and served to develop the background characters and make us actually care about them. Kurapika also gets time to shine in a role that suits him well. The brief filler scene when Killua goes to Whale Island and tries to kill a wounded animal to "put it out of its misery" instead of trying to nurse it to health was a NECESSARY scene to show some of the fundamental differences between Killua and Gon's outlooks on life, and Killua's struggle to acclimate.

>2011 has better animation
all the character art is bland as fuck, which completely detracts from any quality animation. not to mention there's plenty of AMAZING animation in the 1999 version as well, specifically the fight between Gon and Hisoka at Heavens Arena and Kurapika vs Uvogin in the york new city arc

Post-Ryodan Arc 2011 = 1999 TV anime + Ryodan OVA >>> 2011 up to Greed Island.

This is the correct opinion.

I'll admit the series has good music at least. File ver

I honestly think the way the fandom talks about HxH gives people unreasonable expectations which leads to undeserved backlash. It's not super deep or grimdark (even "deconstruction" is a stretch), it's just a weird creative story that plays by its own rules. Also both anime versions completely screw up the pacing (as is wont for shonen adaptations) and make it harder to get into, in contrast to the manga where the first few arcs are actually very breezy and fun (that said I agree with >>25530 esp in regards to the art).
Anyway it's fucking back motherfuckers.

>>25912
I love Hunter X Hunter (mainly up to the Chimera Ant arc), but the manga/anime industry is so stale, partially due to the absurd working conditions and burnout, that anything that expresses even a tiny bit of genuine creativity/depth gets elevated and praised far more than it honestly deserves. It's the same feel I get from something like Punpun, although unlike HxH I think Punpun is an irredeemable steaming pile of shit.

>the crypto fascist author thinks an ending where conflict is transcended is "hokey"
well golly

Anon, don't be a prat. The idealism of end to contention and war is unrealistic, and depending on the story may or may not make sense. It makes sense in Naruto since that's part of the over-arching theme/story of Naruto's path. It wouldn't necessarily make sense for other stories however.

You know what, Eren doing a full rumbling was the only way to make the ending good. All Isayama had to do was fulfill the narrative promises made in earlier chapters and have him genocide the entire world and kill or permanently estrange all of his friends, and then destroy titan powers. He comes home and retires but is consumed by guilt and retires. Despite 'winning' all his friends are dead, including ones who would be on his side like Floch, except for Historia who not to be a shipper, (if we're talking pure shipping Ymir x Historia was the only couple with any chemistry ever in the entire series), was obviously meant to have a child with him. His hollow victory means he becomes an absent father and he despises himself like Reiner did. Over the years he comes to realise that the entire situation could have been resolved through diplomacy and that his friends were right. Historia dies of natural causes and it looks like a civil war is going to break out betwen the fascist survey corps and his fascist daughter who thinks Eren used to be a great man but got weak, and they are threatening each other with Nuclear bombs like TNO basically, because eradicating titans did not eradicate weapons of mass destruction. Resigned, he sits back and waits for them to kill each other. He had completely won but it meant nothing in the long run. But when he opens his eyes the bombs haven't been dropped. They'd sorted things out peacefully without genocide. The ending is positive and the future is bright, with people co-operating and building nuclear energy instead of weapons. The story's narrative is completed satisfyingly with Eren realizing he was wrong and finally smiling as a better world is built.

bruh, i 100% thought it was anti-fash, but I stumbled upon the whole @migiteorerno drama and now I'm thinking else wise lmao

>>23814
yes but he did not go far enough, he should have pulled of the rumbeling with eren and then get rid of the rest of humans eldians with his plan.

>>25240
>At this point I don't think he's capable of introspection even if he tried
>he's taken refuge in thoughtless activities and his creature impulses
Yeah solid agree. If it wasn't getting laid, it's be something equally mundane. I'm hoping that the direction the series goes is having Dennis coming to self actualization in a stupid roundabout way that he is not exactly consciously aware of.

>>25242
>Dennis
heh

Jesus.

It's unlikely, but if Fujimoto is actually setting up the America devil to be the strongest child of the War Devil that would genuinely be kino.

burgers are going to soy face over that so much T_T , burgers have already partially ruined jjba sbr with their retarded takes about a certain characters ideology now they are going to spew their mentall illness in csm community.

I liked the ending I thought it was perfectly adequate. It's just that the last two arcs kinda sucked and didn't build up the ending properly.
