Why even live anons?

>yfw you're filthy cinephile scum, you like anime and some of your favorite directors are anime directors but you also acknowledge there's a lot of bad anime and how obnoxious otaku culture can be, and all your weeb friends think all japanese movies and culture are like the incredibly santized view of the world that 90% of anime presents

how do I get weebs to broaden their horizons and watch like, a single kurosawa or nagisa oshima movie, let alone somebody like tsukamoto or miike? Japanese cinema when you dig deep is as rich as french or 70s hollywood stuff, but people in the anglosphere only know the kind of stuff that funko pop collectors watch

ITT: characters who did nothing wrong

opinion on Gate? can it be defined as JSDF recruitment propaganda?

ON THE NETORARE QUESTION BY MARX KARL

i would like to adress the reactionary monster, anime cuck porn, also known as netorare, how NTR is an absolutely terrible hentai category. It's almost worse than Gore, in my opinion.

The whole premise of Netorare is first and foremost, unfaithfulness, treason, in both reading materials and animations, the story always follow the same line, that there's this really good guy who has a beautiful girlfriend who cheats on him with someone who's usually an asshole, a rich scumbag, fucking hideous both in face and body, two of these things, or all three at the same time. And it makes no logical sense whatsoever. First of all, the really kind and emotional guy walking in on a beautiful girl he loves getting fucked by an ugly guy is completely nonsensical. In reality, relationships are complex, and if cheating or infidelity does happen, it’s not as shown in NTR, where the girl cheats with a guy who is 1000% of the time an asshole or an ugly fucker to the extreme, FUCK!, of all the men to cheat on her husband with, and she goes for the asshole in every hentai? Why would she actively choose to go for an ugly asshole to cheat with in the first place? Cuz he has a big dick? Cuz she's an asshole too? To hurt her husband even more? Or maybe it’s because the writers hates us? It's both misogynistic AND misandristic in that it portrays all women as assholes who prefer huge cocks over the good-looking and kind fellas they already fell in love with, and it portrays men that are emotional as weak and foolish while portraying the other men as ugly dickholes. Nobody wins here! Everyone is a bad person!

And why would you as a man jerk off to this? I want the women to listen to me as well, I will get to you in the next page, The Young Hegelian fuckers tell me always not to kinkshame nobody, however, I am here to do so.

what is it you like about netorare? What makes you self insert? If you want to live your sick fantasy and you’re inserting as the man who gets cucked, why is it you want your partner badly to cheat on you, and have both your girl and the asshole mock you? And if you actively want to seduce a woman and fuck her behind her man’s back, then why? Are you an asshole? Would you want this to happen to a girl you love? And if you’re just excited by the idea of a taboo setting where there is breaking of bonds and the excitment of fucking behind the cucked partener’s back,Post too long.

Post and share all of your favorite horror manga and anime. The more bizarre and disturbing the better.

Yes I know, it's an anime board. But since this board is relatively dead, how about a nice curve ball to spice it up? if worse comes to worse more the thread to /hobby/

Anyway, I just recently watched season 1 - 9 (and some one offs) and I was wondering what's your guys opinions on the show? I personally enjoyed it, with these being my top three:
1) Bart gets an F
2) Homers Enemy
3) E-I-(Annoyed Grunt)

It's pretty obvious why 1 & 3 are solid, but I don't see people talk about 2 that much. Which I don't get why.

Homers Enemy; Frank Grimes, is obviously the personification of the "dream American worker". The dream worker who in any dire situation will simply just "pull up his boot straps" and work harder to get a better life. The reality is though is that, no one actually cares about him going through those hardships. Yes, while Burns did originally try to hire him after seeing his struggle, he was predictably ignored after Burns found the next shiny thing to gawk at, and the hardships of Frank was quickly ignored by the rest of society.

Maybe it was obvious and I'm slow, but the lesson that it taught is still a great reminder, that is: a system that abandons you to unnecessary hardships is not going to care if you actually succeeded in those hardships.

This reality is hammered in further with Homer existence, one who has gotten off lucky and lived by all accounts a fairly fulfilling life. Any mess ups that Homer has cause is ignored since as long as profit is made, they don't care what he does.

Hajime no Ippo mangaka George Morikawa sparked controversy on Japanese Twitter for complaining about art made by staff of the animated adaptation of his manga…
Morikawa's original posts were about him fearing counterfeits of his own art, but he went on to discuss artwork being done at overseas events, the fact that animators don't necessarily have the right to do it, especially if they profit off of it
This is actually a thorny, sometimes tightly controlled issue: last summer, at the Paris Japan Expo, animators Keiichi Ichikawa and Eisaku Inoue were forbidden to draw any One Piece or Saint Seiya art during signing sessions
This is also an issue in Japan. Another mangaka, Shoko Hamada, discussed not just illustrations and fan art, but artbooks sold as dôjinshi by individual animators. A good example would be Kerorira's Bocchi the Rock! artbook, one of the most prized publications of last summer's Comiket
Another infamous example of this kind of controversy is that of legendary animator and designer Tomonori Kogawa, who once sold original illustrations he made of characters from Galaxy Express 999, much to the ire of original mangaka Leiji Matsumoto….
God forbid exploited animators actually do something for themselves. I fucking love copyright law and "intellectual" property.
