Well, Heated Rivalry it is then

That’s because BL is a descendent of nanshoku literature. In a gay relationship, both partners are social equals, they are both men who are mutually attracted to each other. In BL and nanshoku before it, one partner is dominant and the other submissive and the submissive partner is treated as if he is the social equivalent of a woman. The love can also be one sided and pederastic.

Maybe it's because it's usually aimed at straight women who still want to fantasize that they could get with one of the guys. Yuri is actually not that different (it's better nowadays but still), lesbianism is often treated as this cute and innocent schoolgirl episode that you grow out of to marry a man.

>>30235
BL and GL both run on this constant themes of self-denialism

Toxic yuri is the new hotness. Sisters, we have never been so back.

They dont pay them regardless.

People still think the worker gets royalties or some shit instead of a fixed salary, I thought that retardation was done after they stopped talking about it in video games, but looks like every cultural product still suffer from this

I actually watched a video on this recently. Aside from the common reasons one might assume (rigid hierarchy structure, strong social aversion to any crime, assumption that it's harming one of their largest industries, etc), the video breaks down the history of Japan's crazy strict copyright laws and the impact it's had on the collective psyche as a result. Definitely an interesting dive into the topic, worth a watch

Japanese would be such an ideal LION NATION under a DotP, they are such hardcore regimers.

i havent watched this show but all the dudes in it are hot as fuck

>>30259
Yep. All the male characters are sexy and nuanced as fuck. The manga series went from 2009 thru 2017

The anime only had two seasons sadly.

I will now admit to being old.

I like Hakuryuu Ren better.
A much better written version of Sasuke Uchiha

patlabor 2 directed by oshii is a good movie. although, in typical japanese media fashion, it frustratingly avoids like the plague taking any sort of ideological stance, it does make an accurate assessment of the nature of the prosperity of the USA sphere of influence nations

Patlabor 2 is honestly my favorite mecha anime and my second-favorite oshii

So! I generally think Hathaway's Flash has to be understood as extremely a companion piece to Char's Counterattack. I mean, this is almost tautological, right. Obviously a work that is the most directly next in chronological order should be considered at least majorly a companion piece! However, I mean this as in, Tomino was probably writing this as he was directing Char's Counterattack. The story of Hathaway (rather than Char), then, is a story started in Zeta, sure, but ultimately a story that is told in the dual novel series of CCA-Hathaway. This unity of attitudes permeates both works, in that both CCA and Hathaway are written during the falling-apart of the Warsaw Pact, and in the wake of the failure of the Japan's Leftist struggles. There is a palpable despair of Fukuyaman End of History that seeps through both works. In that way, I feel similarly towards Hathaway's Flash as I do CCA. It's a work that is a Marxist tearing his heart out, and I can't help but to sympathize. The movies do a good enough job at adapting the novels, and unless the changes in the third movie is egregious, I don't think I'll hate it, despite it technically being a non-Tomino Gundam work.

Char Aznable never could have dropped the Axis because of who won the Cold War, but we have to create a world where that's conceivable. Mafty could never win, but we have to create a world where that's conceivable.

OP picture's thumbnail couldn't fool me last year but today i unironically clicked on it expecting booba. presbyopia here i come. :(

It was good but it got flanderized to hell

we need to give them names and fanart

>>30155
Agree

>>30121
Personally I think even grouping everything that happens to someone that uses a talk sprite into a category is itself nonsense, let along further boxing it into "anime" just because that's the art style.

>>30081
But laughing at charlie kirk getting shot is bad apparently

>>30094
That will never happen unfortunately.

I think both things are tasteless and should be beneath a good human being.

So much for the left claiming themselves to be empathetic

>>30120
that's kinda what the game is, isn't it? no real coherent commentary on streamer culture, parasocial relationships, how the modern internet makes society ill etc

>>30120
Japan is at it's chudmaxxing arc, having any actual commentary might accidentally swerve it away from any actual uh non-chud opinion

>>30028
Is the show any good? I played the game for an hour and it kinda sucked

>>30124
Can you provide proof for this?
I’m starting to think “chud” is another aesthetic slur thrown around for any “cynical take I don’t like”

>>30127
The way it's written is very juvenile. Even the styling choices that superficially tries to be a SHAFT anime, are boring.
It might just be me, to be honest.

It's incredibly mid, and I don't understand all the talk about it currently, not even the Japanese are watching it. Same thing with Gackiakuta

I need to read more. I liked the first chapter. The art is pretty good.

the manga's first few chapters were based
