You know how whenever there's anime primarily aimed at male audiences with romance as a core element, there's always some quotient of dudes responding to it like this? I've long held that these sure are some joyless ghouls, but after some deliberation, I think it's even worse… Most of you are hopefully aware of how much denigration romantic content aimed at women has seen through the ages and even today. Because if women like something but men don't, clearly that something must be of "low value". The whole thing is obviously deeply rooted in misogyny.

Even today, romance in fiction is a very "girl-coded" interest. Thus if a man happens to like romance, eventually they're going to run into toxic masculinity denigrating them for it. How they'll "get no bitches and stack no paper". A mere interest in romance makes them "weak". And it's incredibly obvious how surface level these kind of judgments are. These dudes see "romance" and just refuse to look any further due to toxic masculinity and misogyny.

josei is the same as shoujo, and it is becoming increasingly rare to see anime for that demography. seinen is the same as shounen. the main difference is that seinen and josei don't include furigana and use more difficult kanji, but that's irrelevant if you are reading translated manga
did you watch giji harem last season? there is hamefura from a couple seasons ago too (although it eventually reverts back to the tropes). or the weird world of shounen but by female authors and with female protagonists
with that said, imo anime and manga are acquired tastes and one should learn to accept the defects of the genre rather than waste time looking for "good exceptions"

>seinen is the same as shounen
Really? Then I especially have no idea why shounen works don't get published in seinen tankobons…
>the weird world of shounen but by female authors and with female protagonists
Male protagonists aren't the issue. It's how they and the female leads are written that is. Also, too much romcom leans too heavily into wish fulfillment I think, the female leads are idealized, and I'm simply not interested in this. And it's not because I'm a girl or gay or anything, it just feels a bit fake, this trick does not really work on my psyche. Maybe I'm becoming more demanding with age.
>imo anime and manga are acquired tastes and one should learn to accept the defects of the genre rather than waste time looking for "good exceptions"
You have a point. I'm not like Miyazaki or Anno, I even like some tropes and cliches. But even I have the limit. Funny thing: despite generally being somewhat of a "hipster" I seem to enjoy mainstream anime more. It's only when I delve into the niche stuff do I keep stepping on nails. Also, seasonal anime is my worst nightmare, and it's all overwhelmingly shounen romcoms and isekais that are wildly varying in quality (mostly mid).

In conclusion, I hate seasonals.

furigana. it would be hard to sell a volume to a high-school student if they can't read the text, and it would be hard (but not impossible) to publish an isekai -type fantasy for example as seinen because the genre uses kanji that aren't commonly used anywhere else and most people don't know how to read
if you read translations you have probably encountered dialogues centered around what seem to be rather self-evident words or phrases, but what is probably happening is that the author is explaining a certain combination of kanji and it obviously gets lost in the translation. in fact, I'm sure there are fan-made japanese-to-japanese dictionaries for isekai commonly used kanji

Hehe, wanted to watch a female lead who actually struggles in life, like having a visual impairment. I wear prescriptive glasses too, she's relatable. Not in a self-insert-y way but in an "I understand you, girl" way. Her vision is shit tho.

Nah, the American feminists are turning back to socially conservative policies like banning porn for example. The only major libertine American party is the Libertarian Party, and it barely gets any votes. The only reason that the Pubs and the Dems aren't as censorious is because the more censorious factions within them (like the Christian right and Hillary Clinton) can't actually get elected. The same as with JCP funnily enough.

Just get a seedbox or debrid subscription. Torrent to your hearts content and no DMCA letters or warnings from your ISP. I was able to afford it even back when I was a NEET (debrid site 6/mo = $20, seedbox 6/mo = $60).

Nyaa, AnimeTosho, Anidex. All of them are open trackers, but they all have a huge library of anime going back decades.

You can also get shit through XDCC (which is again DDL, so no 3rd party to send you a DMCA). AniMK and NIBL are great for this.

You can also get links to those file hosting sites like MEGA, RapidGator, Uploaded, etc just by joining forums like Anime-Sharing or Snahp (the 2nd one you'll need a friend to invite you, but its basically the replacement for r/megalinks). You can either use a debrid site to download all that shit blazing fast, or just use JDownloader2 and it'll download according to whatever limitations the free accounts have without you manually having to download each link yourself.

And lastly, if youre dead set on streaming it:

gunsmith cats full anime on youtube
>In the dangerous suburbs of Chicago, skilled bounty hunters Irene "Rally" Vincent and "Minnie" May Hopkins run Gunsmith Cats, a firearms store of questionable legality. One day, Bill Collins, an agent for the Chicago branch of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives, blackmails Rally and May into working with him on a case. The stakes are high, but Rally’s gunmanship and May’s knowledge of explosives are unmatched. As Rally and May unravel the secrets of the case, the two will need to use guns and grenades while being faster, stronger, and better than everyone else in order to stay alive.

1999 HXH is objectively better than the 2011 vers.

1) The art and mood building is much better
2) Kite introduced at the beginning
3) Killua and Kurapika get multiple designs
4) Characters are built upon in a meaningful way through filler
5) OP/EDs are gorgeous and use amazing music

>b-but 1999 has filler!!!11!@!
Newsflash: IF THE FILLER IS GOOD THEN WHO THE FUCK CARES? The three episode filler-arc in the middle of the hunter exam arc was masterfully done and served to develop the background characters and make us actually care about them. Kurapika also gets time to shine in a role that suits him well. The brief filler scene when Killua goes to Whale Island and tries to kill a wounded animal to "put it out of its misery" instead of trying to nurse it to health was a NECESSARY scene to show some of the fundamental differences between Killua and Gon's outlooks on life, and Killua's struggle to acclimate.

>2011 has better animation
all the character art is bland as fuck, which completely detracts from any quality animation. not to mention there's plenty of AMAZING animation in the 1999 version as well, specifically the fight between Gon and Hisoka at Heavens Arena and Kurapika vs Uvogin in the york new city arc

I honestly think the way the fandom talks about HxH gives people unreasonable expectations which leads to undeserved backlash. It's not super deep or grimdark (even "deconstruction" is a stretch), it's just a weird creative story that plays by its own rules. Also both anime versions completely screw up the pacing (as is wont for shonen adaptations) and make it harder to get into, in contrast to the manga where the first few arcs are actually very breezy and fun (that said I agree with >>25530 esp in regards to the art).
Anyway it's fucking back motherfuckers.

I love Hunter X Hunter (mainly up to the Chimera Ant arc), but the manga/anime industry is so stale, partially due to the absurd working conditions and burnout, that anything that expresses even a tiny bit of genuine creativity/depth gets elevated and praised far more than it honestly deserves. It's the same feel I get from something like Punpun, although unlike HxH I think Punpun is an irredeemable steaming pile of shit.

It is the new TV and maintaining the illusion of neutrality through careful rightward nudging of the overton window isn't the most profitable option available anymore because everyone will keep using YouTube regardless because they have network effect.
