Hot Take: the name of Dokyuu HxEros and Masō Gakuen HxH are trying to play on the fame of HS DxD using the LetterxLetter nameplay.

Frankly I'd like more villainess romcoms in anime, they're cute and funny and there's not enough of it to be tiresome.

>What the fuck even is the point of harem series? Aren't most of them just romance but with an even greater chance of blueballing you?
A plain SoL Harem is usually boring unless you spice it up with something; devils, monsters, aliens, alien-devil monsters, world-ending disasters, magic settings, sci-fi settings etc.
From a clinical and cynical point of view it's a Power Fantasy pure an simple - the guy gets the girls and becomes the hero.
However if written well it becomes an opporutnity for worldbuilding and action along with fan-service and romcom plots, which is a fun bit of escapism as long as you're not being a retard about it.

I'm both surprised and unsurprised that reverse harems are uncommon

>catgirls
foxgirls, and you ought to see the anime. It's moeshit, yes, but it has enough restraint in the hijinx not to go full retard like Dragon Maid does. Also it's not quite out of nowhere. It is implied in the anime and stated in the original source that he's a reincarnation of someone the foxes are attached to. Moreover it actually has a subtle social commentary of the shittiness of Japanese bachelor life and work life. Finally it's shorter and so doesn't overstay its welcome.

Thanks for coming to my TED talk.

I think that los Niños Héroes could be a good story for an adaptation in terms of Mexican 'anime' as it resembles similar stories in the USSR regarding Soviet youths and cadets fighting against the German invasion to their last breath. A somber but potentially interesting story.

True, but its obscure even within Mexican society today tbh.

this is exactly why its boring m8

>>21804
Eh I disagree, it'd be boring if it was like 5 seasons of the same shit, but its not. Dragon Maid just feels retarded and I get no pleasure out of it, hence why I didn't bother.

>>17612
Senko-san works as a single or maybe 2 season anime with some rom-com elements, not for long-form unless a proper, overarching plot is given.

<holiday camps
Hello /pol/ see pic related and fuck off you cunt.
>Your lack of actual ww2 knowledge
<posts literal holocaust denial shite.
Fuck off.
>You're anecdotal evidence
No it is not. It is a goddamn fact that kids and most people are not active sadists in such a manner and that its a shitty fucking edgelord scene that has no pretext of happening. This is literal high-school tier animal-killing and bullying, not something that happens to elementary school children. Also you have no argument, yet attempt to present yourself as "le smarter man"… even as you fuck up basic grammar.
>You don't take my argument serious
Because you have no argument, "muh not reel!" is not a fucking argument. Human beings don't suddenly become psychopaths in an orphanage, and a setting fictional or not needs to have internal consistency, otherwise its just poor writing.
>Jews weren't chosen to survive based on how well they did in mentally complex tests.
You're bringing up random fucking nonsense. Unironically check yourself into an institution, you're not addressing anything I said and just randomly go on schizophrenic tangents about your personal ignorance of WW2 that you project onto it historiography. No wonder you like this show, it appeals to the terrible or rather lack of taste you have. Your tangents about "le 3letter agencies" is fucking laughable given that I literally created the /edu/ CIA thread and numerous effortposts on the subject debunking their nonsense and posting sources on the subject. You need to touch grass and reassess your intelligence, or rather lack of it.

Yeah, no, go back to /pol/ you schizo faggot

I never watched this anime past the first episodes because it wasn't my thing, although I've gone back and seen various parts of it over time. I do recall the AMVs for Elfen Lied though, they were hardcore.

Also I think the "freak child meets a normal human boy that she imprints on" literally got stolen by Darling in the Franxx.

I'm trying to find an Elfen Lied AMV with an electro remix of Grieg's Mountain King.

That face gives me massive uncanny valley vibes, christ.

Something that has similar asthetic to the stuff mentioned here is The BFG from 1989

>>9144
Another classic

>>9136
Funny thing is that there's the hobbit and the Lord of the Rings animations that are entirely separate productions but are so similar in style that people conflate the two as being from the same source.

>TFW nobody mentions Flight of Dragons
Absolutely wonderful film. It's too bad the animated remake that the original creators were planning never got off the ground. I actually spoke to one of them and he was telling me about how they had basically written and story-boarded it all out, but it got the plug pulled on it because of funding and lack of popular interest.

>>9346
Anyone remember what video this was?

>So what's your opinion on Inuyasha and Yashahime?
<T. Lad who was born on the 2000 and doesn't know jack shit.
Inuyasha can drag in places, but it's worth watching and has a lot of fun (including the films). Yashahime is like Boruto, poorly thought out and contrived.

>>24184
>Yashahime is like Boruto, poorly thought out and contrived.
Yep, I only watched it because of the tomboy.

>>24187
Which one?

One thing about Inuyasha that bothered me is that Kirara is heavily implied to be the companion of the original Demon-Slayer (Priestess Midoriko, who created the Shikon jewel, yet it's NEVER addressed.

>>21475
I think its Lev Gulimev who said that humans just have a desire for religion and something grander to believe in, which can be your religion, your specific ethnic identity, your state and in this your special kpop "group" it comes from the same place

Part-Korean Anon here; S.Korea is the most predatory place you could live in. Of course if you're a Westerner that moved there you'll have it a bit easier because colonialism and Russians often get a pass because we're crazy.

Why is so much of Manhwa webcomics full of horny stuff? Like even actually plot driven stories have anime tier gags and fanservice that sometimes disrupts the tone of the story.

>Cromartie High School
LMAO my first association with Cromartie is the Terminator.

>>17813
>anyone could make those mistakes
The claim was that he is pro-communist and does his research. If he describes WWII exactly as porky propaganda describes it, then neither is true, isn't it?
>take your meds
Already took them. The red (as in communist) pill. Left is an ubiquitous term, which doesn't really mean anything since even democratic party of the burgerstan calls themself such. So him calling himself a lefty doesn't really tell us anything of value about his actual views.

>>17804
>he's against russia in the russo-ukranian war, but he seems to be a leftist
I got this from his twitter back in March, seems like he was even in Russia during it
>i'm glad he makes manga outside of the usual wehraboo and rightoid shittery because i really like his artstyle
Yeah, the bitching ITT is why the genocidal empire is seen as cute and quirky anime fodder while the soviets are still seen as "too far" by some cucks
The guy himself seems to be into history in general

>>17812
>It is usual rightoid shittery with plots straight out from "Enemy at the gate"
The Soviets are depicted sympathetic and more human with some typical stereotypes while the Nazis are generally more generally cartoonish villains, including the elf bitch. One of the main characters is a Jewish atheist, I'm not the one who thinks the creator is some hardened leftist, it's usually hard to tell, but I wouldn't call this "rightoid shittery".
This case of puritanism is interesting because you don't really see it in the opposite case. In Hellsing the Nazis are depicted as literal psychotic vampires but that never stops rightoids from adopting it

Very underrated thread and manga, even if it uses Soviet aesthetics in partiality for LARP aesthetics.

Posthumous frenemies

How's the manga coming along?
Stopped two years ago when they caught some chick a year ago, and forgot to check up.

The series seems cool, it was just too slow on uploads despite feeling like a massive story that needs to be told.
Similar with Vinland Saga, but at least Vinland doesn't have a bad arc after its anime adaption.

Black Lagoon has a ton of Revy fans and fan-art. Where the fuck is the love for Balalaika? Especially here.
