What has caused the harem to almost become the default relationship in anime?

Not a fan. Even with all the crazy shit I can accept in anime, this is generally a level of blatant wish fulfillment nonsense that just fully takes me out of it.

But even harems are rarely ever real harems. The main character always winds up with either no one or only one person not a poly relationship

>>27128
I read a story that had an actual harem ending, in modern times too
It was trash

>>27128
hamefura ends with wholesome bisexual polycule

>>27137
Harem animes been popular for decades

Do not read Welcome to the NHK, No Longer Human, all of Haruki Murakami, etc. Worst mistake of my life.

I understand this sentiment coming from some reactionary 4channer, but it's always mystifying whenever I encounter it in an allegedly leftist website.

I looked up No Longer Human. Sounded pretty cool honestly

Any media that makes you feel strongly, even bad feelings, is superb. That's what it's for. Unless the feelings are anger about just how shitty it is and how it wasted your time. I've just rewatched steins gate and have felt sad all week, couldn't be happier.

ps: murakami is a hack

>>16399
>Haruki Murakami
You should be appreciating the works of Teruaki Murakami instead

>>27133
the american film director or the japanese hentai director ?

has anybody else played LMR? i feel like im the only english speaker who did, or at least the only one that liked it going off the polarized reviews.

made by the same team as Everlasting Summer, it feels like an early 1900s russian novel in anime form. the protagonist is the quintessential antisocial superfluous man forced to confront his own pathetic shadow after his comfortable life of monotony is stolen from him, replaced by the threat of death at the hands of a political/corporate conspiracy looming over his shoulder 24/7.

my favorite theme of the story was its emphasis on the material conditions of the main characters. as the "Money" in the name implies, the wealth/class positions and divisions between them are constantly stressed. One heroines route delves into full on class warfare in which you kidnap the heiress to a company, another abuses drugs and frequently overdoses to cope with her lack of efficacy, etc.

all in all its a pretty solid story, though its clear they used a ton of russian words/phrases that don't translate properly so at times the dialogue can feel a bit choppy. the worst for me was a certain heroine who, while basically having no relevance/screentime if you dont go down her route, is a focal obsession of the main character regardless and the constant references to her get pretty grating at times. theres also sex if youre into that.

Could anyone dump this?

Thank you for uploading all these, I would buy this shit if it was more like $20 for all of them but double that for the whole story is madness.

I was kinda hoping there would have been some miraculous advice on "How to stop being a hiki loser" this time besides the whole "get a job" thing.
Alas, no such thing.

Recommend me a good post-2010 anime to watch while working out (nothing against older anime titles, I just already know most of those).

>>26273
You work out while watching anime? I would never do something that distracts me from following the action on screen, anime is just not the medium for that. I usually listen to music or podcasts instead.

I think pluto was nice

If you like isekai, "I used high level medicine to counter magic" is pretty good. It's about a doctor that gets sent to a world where only humans have healing magic, and all the other races are dependent on them for everything from healing minor wounds to treating cancer. MC introduces them to modern medical techniques and pisses off the human supremacist church. The art is really great and there's lots of actual medical information in it.

>>26982
>the MC defeats clerical fascism by having a medical degree
This is definitely the plot of all time.

venus?

Question: Why do posters itt find these sorts of 2d/3d proportions desirous? There are no irl people like them (which might be one), so is this really some caveman primordial drive?

>>26968
The most common thing about all these fetish threads is that they still emphasize tits, ass and thighs. So I think people develop a fetish for feet and fat women by their association with tits, ass and thighs.

One Piece is leftist
371 posts and 110 image replies omitted.

I finally caught up on the anime. Should I read the manga to catch up, or just enjoy the freedom from a 1122 episode long prison?

>>1732
The nika thing destroys the themes though
It makes so human/character actions are not their own but fate
Which destroy a political interpretation of it

>>26688
I disagree. I think it works because devil fruits appear based on human desire and Nika appears when he is desired by humanity.

i'm reading the fishman island arc rn and it's pissing me off that the stupid japanese cartoon gag trope of perverts (sanji) getting huge nosebleeds is actually being taken seriously as a plot point to move the story along

>>26946
quality takes a nosedive after the timeskip, I find it insane that OP became insanely popular just as soon as it became absolute shit, yet when it was a top 3 battle shonen ever nobody outside japan gave a fuck about it

Let's see
>Guts is a low ass commoner bastard born from a corpse, meant to die, raised in a hellish world (that's literally just the same as our own before Guts encounters any actual demons) so harsh and cruel he likely has severe PTSD by the time he's 15
>Best friend Griffith is a social climbing piece of shit who has to murder and scheme to almost make it to the top, even then the ruling class tells him to go fuck himself and he has to sell his soul to the devil and murder all his friends to finally make it
>The ruling class are mostly monsters; the King is a pedophile nut that tries raping his own daughter, the "nicest" nobles were wrapped up in a brutal inquisition
>The whole world is ruled by an impersonal, most amoral entity created by human will but superseding all humans, controlling their lives based on it's own whims which are of course encouraged by the worst human impulses
>The thing everyone worships is literally evil itself
>Even the leaders of the apostles are pawns of the Market, err…."Idea of Evil"
Fuck it
The godhand are the bourgeoisie
The apostles are the petit bourgeois
Fuck yea

An interpretation from one of the comments:

0:00:00 Beast in Black : The Beast of Darkness in Guts mind.
0:04:29 Blind and Frozen : Griffith lamenting about letting Guts go.
0:09:32 Blood of a Lion : Guts courage or the Millenium Falcon Empire arc for Griffith ?
0:14:35 Born Again : Subtle mix between Griffith feelings for Guts, Charlotte feeling for Griffith, and the symbolism of Femto's birth ?
0:18:26 Zodd the Immortal : Well… Zodd the Immortal.
0:22:00 The Fifth Angel : The rise of Griffith as Femto.
0:25:30 Crazy Mad Insane : Guts rage against the Griffith (don't know why there's a cybernetic voice lmao).
0:28:57 Hell for all Eternity : Causality and the horrifying twist of the afterlife.
0:33:43 Eternal Fire : ?? The thrill of the fight ?
0:37:15 Go to Hell : Guts raging about Apostles
0:40:15 End of the World : ???
0:45:23 Ghost in the Rain : Desperate Guts and Skullknight under the rain after the Eclipse. Also a lovesong to Casca.

Never got to post in the anime hot takes thread, so I'll post it here:
Berserk sucks until Guts gets raped

Before here's no reason to give a shit about anything other than the art.
After, we get to see a story that's the edgy metal stuff, while also his life time experience of dealing with the trauma, even in the most subtle of ways.

>>26838
Guts shows classic signs of that trauma from the first volume.

Guts & Griffith were in love in the Golden Age arc.

>>26839
Yeah fair, but it takes a back seat to the edgyness, plus it's hard to care when you don't have any connection to this world.

LMAO. English lacks singular words for those terms but still, it's funny to see weeb terms normalized.

>>24729
I'm overworked at the moment so I'll give you the reccs a bit later when I have a spare moment for more than a cursory post. Pic rel is some basics. There's Deck Builders, Base Builders, Apocalypse LitRPG, Monster Evolution and other subgenres of LitRPG.

>>24721
>Isn't the defining element of isekai just taking the "crossing the threshold" part of the Hero's Journey to an extreme?
Sort of, but that makes Isekai start to lose meaning.
>pic
How the fuck is ATLA Lore Flexible? They don't travel to any other world unless you're counting the meditations to the Spirit World, which are more like communicating with deities than actually being in-another-world.

>>24721
the bible is an isekai

>>24720
>TL;DR: The current dominating fantasy genres are Japan's Isekai/LitRPG, Korea's Regression fics and China's Martial Arts Cultivation

endless trash!!

>>373
99% of isekai don't even use the isekai idea well
Like, it gets dropped by the 2nd or 3rd episode.
So to first fix it, I'll say either use the premise to its full potential, or don't make it an isekai in the first place.
