>Rapeman
???

>>5000
Yes.

>>5001
Oh I see

>>5000
THE Rapeman.

>>5037
Just read the wiki article on rapeman it's some of the most fucked up shit ever

>I dropped, because they wouldn't finnish it, which resulted in the producers dragging it on too long.
It's called Detective Conan Syndrome >>4680

I remember caring for roughly 20 episodes before I realized it would never end.

>>5389
That's an interesting Post. Thank you

>>5377
Fuck,this bitch was made in the 90s, and now its 2020 and this show is still going,how the hell do they come up with all thoes episodes?

>>5435
and it will never end

>>5344
Havent heart anything about second season, first one covered 40-50 chapters, and currently the manga is on 80, so there is not enough material to adapt yet.

>>5345
I would not say it is fascist, thematically its kind of like edgier Lord of the Rings. Uniting people of all races to defeat great evil and all. But yes, it has that Japanese quality where you can tell author does not share our sensibilities concerning WW2.

>>5114
currently rewatching and taking notes because I didn't understand it on a first viewing, I'll have to take your word for it lol
>>5006
gave the first episode a go, it looks good. significantly more trashy than I would have liked, I guess you can't have it all tho

>currently rewatching and taking notes because I didn't understand it on a first viewing
If you watch while understanding the main message to be "self-deception is bad", the show obviously hammers nonstop on these points.

I think it couldn't get any blunter than in the final episodes when the older detective smashes apart a literal cardboard fantasy of his idealized memories after his frail wife singlehandedly fights off the gargantuan Shonen Bat with nothing more than a stern lecture on sincerely accepting her own failings and making do despite them.

>>5006
gotta say, they almost lost me with the beach episode, but luckily best girl came through in the end

I want to fuck him to

Why is this a thread… don't we already have >>4116?

Clearly everything that isn't exactly praise of glorious communism and the thought of Xi should be banned.

>>4878
This "China banned X" bullshit is the new "KIM JONG UN VORED HIS UNCLES WITH THE DRAGON DILDO WHILE DABBING" baitj. There's nothing preventing people from streaming most anime legally or CalArts degeneracy alongside the "Das Kapital" game shows, if anything the Japanese are more willing to licence to the Chinese than the usual overseas companies.

feels like every thread featuring youjo senki is going to have right wingers whining about communism from now on

Hahahaha fucking what?

>>5027
>nothing preventing people from streaming most anime legally
Agreed
>or CalArts degeneracy
Fuck that, even garbage anime doesn't fall that far.

That's what it was, so yes indeed.

>3rd pic
imagine

>>4608
I'm personally not a fan TBH

>>4599
its so stupid seeing that stabbing picture posted by rightwingers when the guy getting killed was a nationalist against american dominion over japan

>>4636
Right wingers post it as an example of "hurr we got one over the left in Japan!"

>>4612
Yeah you're right, I didn't know what I was talking about

Bump thread

>>5354
If you don't post content, don't fucking bump. That's called necroing, faggot

Bump the thread.

Bump.

Spaceship Agga Ruter did it right. Everything else is really lame.

It's a (power) fantasy and often an attempt at Slice-of-Life, usually with battle-waifus. Most harems go to shit because they're very same faced and predictable in both the MC and the girls. To repost my old rant.

this thread reminds me why most harem shows, other than DxD are annoying. All this over-sexualization for no reason except anime-gags. At least DxD doesn't try and hide behind the whole 'pure protagonist' bullshit the others do and instead revels in this.

There are very few Harem anime that are good or fun, such as Ranma 1/2 or is Zero no Tsukaima (though in the end Saito subverts the usual harem stuff by having Saito leave with Louise for his world after marrying her and her alone, though in his case you actually wish they had gone all the way with the harem route)

Let's list off the number of SHITTY Harems, starting with the ones I can think off the top my head:
- Testament of Sister Devil (or whatever its called) is DxD if written by an edgy fanfic writer who doesn't understand what DxD is about, (I actually plan on writing a comparison on the two later).
- Unlimited Fafnir, a weird as fuck typical anime similar to Black Bullet except unironically having the main character getting intimate with the 'dragon lolis'. It's less a cohesive story and more a mixed bag of story ideas from other better anime like Evangelion
- Girly Air Force is like Dragonaut but as a (potential) harem and with the reasoning for the protagonist actually being there in the first place as rather weak. It's also a wierd attempt to fetishize planes
- Rosario and Vampire, initially has a cool idea but doesn't think about the long-term and makes the vampire too over-powered and edgy while the protag is bland and weak.
- In another world with my Smartphone: It's OP done wrong, simple as that. It's got no stakes, not even the shitty, SAO-type ones.

A good video got made on this actually; How to (Not) Handle an OP Character - Ft. Isekai Smartphone: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wz3dBaUh9PU

Post too long. Click here to view the full text.

Ranma 1/2 was one of the few manga I've read from start to finish. I digged the martial arts aspect, but ngl I found many of the cliche hijinks pretty entertaining but I'm not even sure why, so I won't even try to defend my allegedly shit taste.

>mental gymnastics
The author used multiple academic sources. Are you suggesting the academic sources are responsible for "mental gymanstics"?

>>5239
1) citing academic sources means nothing when the extrapolations are his own - those are mental gymnastics
2) I can find academic sources for all sorts of inane bullshit and create arguments for why Dinosaurs and birds shouldn't be related. Doesn't make that thesis correct
3) This has been covered before. A lolicon is still a lolicon no matter what pseudo-intellectual trappings you dress it up in. Stop continuing this shit duplicate thread.

>>5241
>1) citing academic sources means nothing when the extrapolations are his own - those are mental gymnastics
Doesn't he directly quote the authors? Don't make me re-read the whole thing again.

>>5243
>Doesn't he directly quote the authors?
1) out of context excerpts can be made to mean anything i.e. Stalin's out of context quote about "no communists in Lithuania"
2) An author is not an objective source (death of author)
3) He takes a quote and then explains it in his own subjective and biased interpretation (obviously a lolicon will argue favorably for lolicons - including a lolicon in denial).
>reread
Then don't. It is an absolute waste of time to write such a paper on a subject of whether fiddling drawn depictions of child-bodies is pedophilic or not. And it is even more a waste of time to read and discuss it repeatedly. Don't take anime seriously and don't engage in drawn CP. All his citations and other crap still boil down to the same fucking arguments about 1000 year old vampire lolis or petite bodies or hebephilia and other nauseating semantics. Again go to the lolipol thread.

>>5243
>>5245
Just to add on: No matter how many quotes and deflections he uses, his arguments boil down to the same debunked shit. It's not worth the time of day

Kaiju No.8 is pretty awesome. It's really fun so fr

I wanna read Hard Boiled Cop and Dolphin, but it's only available on Viz and I'm not paying for that.

This shit is Black Dynamite tier. Some of Japan's contenet feels like its stuck in the 80s, I swear.

>senpai ga uzai kouhai no hanashi
>introduce shota
>pair him with best girl
Insane power move. Not even interested in the main premise but I'll keep an eye out for these two and see where they go. Helps that it's only a light 4 pages. The collective pearl clutching of horrified non-sickos is a freebie.

Frieren is pretty comfy
