THREAD FOR MANIME
no moe allowed
>>13786The vast majority of moe shit is about friendship
>>13784i liked it.
>>13802Golden Kamuy proves that "manime" is a bullshit concept.
Look at all the deliberate fanservice it has. Fanservice and merch for gays and straight women, that is. And it still manages to be really good and badass.
I would like to discuss badass "manly" shit without manime fags sperging about how manly they are for liking it.
>>13772>>16696the Violence Jack manga gets even more extreme than the OVA but 1. Nagai's simpler style makes it less disturbing 2. it's way more thoughtful than the OVAs. just in Evil Town alone it feels like Itano & whoever scripted it missed a lot of the subtext of the manga or intentionally threw it away. for some brief examples:
-in the manga the big conflict was caused by a coward playing to both sides (and giving them false info) save his ass
-the rape gangs metaphorically morphing into beasts and the really inventive drawings used when Jack slaughtered them were gotten rid of to have a more straightforward hentai rape scene and more straightforward & realistic "xxxtreme gore" after it
-the arc villain cannibalizing his dead trans gf was meant to be fucked up & pathetic: he completely lost his mind under extreme anger & desperation, so he did something completely unhinged, animalistic and nonsensical. in the OVA it looks like he legit gains a demonic transformation & super powers from it which makes no sense. you could say that was metaphorical too but given they didn't adapt the earlier nonliteral beastly transformations it doesn't read that way + even as a metaphor it doesn't make sense since he was more of a pathetic desperate cornered animal than a badass demon.
