>>20382It's the instrumentalization of everything in the context of the market. Even to an "authright" there's an inherent value to children as the future of muh nation. To the ancaps the child has to provide exchange value (as a source of labor) or use value (as something to be consumed).
>>20398Well, only if we talk about Freedman. Rothbard and Konkin are voluntaryists, prioritizing the NAP and the natural rights over capitalism. Freedmanites tho… Yeah, I see where you're coming from.
Hoppe seems to be too conservative to tolerate child prostitution (unless he utilizes some mental gymnastics to justify this position) but he would def be someone who'd advocate for child slavery. Unironically. Like, he would unironically say that the children are their parents' property and should know their fucking place. He's a patriarchy shill and a neo-feudalist. He admitted that himself.

I'm still a bit shocked at how much the Nazi cancer has infected 4chan. How could this happen? Is it because their attempts at being edgy have backfired? Are they essentially forced into this vicious cycle of ironic racism, fueling real racism and creating an atmosphere of ressentment and dishonesty? Can they even admit that they're wrong despite their entire online persona being built around being offensive and nothing more? Are 4channers simply peer-pressured into being (or pretending to be) Nazis?
>>20400Well, dark places like prisons, hoods, and even an imageboard like 4chan always reflect the hidden neuroses of our society, and in this case it is racism and class hatred against people poorer than you. This is why moralfags whinging about /pol/,anime, rap music, or whatever are stupid; the problem is not this specific cultural niche but the society we lives in
>>20343There is nothing wrong with lolicon art.
>>20407But what about the class hatred against the bourgeoisie? Is that better than class hatred against the poor?
>>5136I don't even know what's overhyped anymore because everyone who hypes something up says that they're not overhyping it. It's like infowars, you can't even know who's right or wrong. People get very defensive about their favorite anime so I hide in the corner until they leave me alone.
>>20432But what if… What if everyone else is right and I understand nothing? But isn't that an appeal to authority? Isn't the so-called "objective quality" just a form of mass brainwashing by the critics so we agree with their opinions all the time? What if the main reason we think of something as good is because others told us it is good so we constantly force ourselves to enjoy things we otherwise wouldn't? Think about how many times our opinions are shaped by those around us.
What if quality is a spook? What if Sword Art Online is actually an underappreciated masterpiece? What if Neo-Yokio is a timeless classic?
Live Action anime adaptations aren't that bad.
>>21786They only work, in my opinion, in low-fantasy/sci-fi settings, or realistic settings, because live action has trouble executing complicated stuff without utilizing tons of CGI.
>>17256 (me)
>browsing this thread>find my old postI have seen the light. Mystery of Mamo is the best Lupin thing and Porco Rosso is Miyazaki's best
1. Fairy Tail isn't that bad if the seasons are plodded through slowly or by themselves, at least some of them more precisely that is to say.
2. (not technically super anime related) Utagoe, both as social activity and as musical trend, is pretty based, and maybe anime conventions should have Utagoe Kissa someday.
3. Sailor Moon "Stars" (S5) was done quite well, and the quasi-romantic sideplot inside was lightly-subtly exquisitely sentimental even if the premise might've been slightly sketchy.
4. Haz and Rafiq (and their sort arguably were partially correct in their criticism of anime, insofar as to mix anime, with its heavy postmodern undertone, and serious politics unreservedly or unmoderatedly can easily lead to perversion and as they have claimed the super "moeblob" elements are sus, not always obviously, but there's some shit off about those.
5. (not anime but still relevant) (redacted)
6.New AI/ML technology can really be of benefit/help for the animation industry and workers, and expand the capability to produce anime or the similar sort of media more easily to the less sponsored masses.

Bringing back this thread because it's the most annoying thread on this board and we all deserve to become more miserable.

nadesico is better than evangelion
>>24240Not the claymores in that image, but other characters look like weird snake people.
>>20380This. I hate gynocentrism in media.
even fanart wants to rule 63 msle.characyers but never do the same for female ones.
>>2007It's been years since I've seen scryed. I should check it and the mango out again.
>>2014GITS has dialectics.
The best anime only have one season.
>>25022The best anime are all exactly fourteen minutes long
>>17470>I really hope that at one point someone makes a good cut of the entire One Piss anime.lol not only is there the One Pace fan edit (work in progress) but Netflix is doing One Piece: Brotherhood. chihuahuaposter will get their wish.
Anyway, on topic and related to this post - weekly format is terrible and will reduce even the best source material to slop. And even if it's not, it's makes things take too long. Who wants to watch that many episodes of a show?
>>25025Fan edits are truly a blessing. They can turn even a garbage movie into a masterpiece.
>>5303>>5304cartoons of pur time reflect the socio-ohysical laws. They dont create them.
>>20399child slavery is only one step away from child prostitution.
"Children should know their place" is jut euohemism for "children are not people". This genetic objectification of children is why kids are prome to abuse.
"Innocence" is a chauvinitic model thats imposed.
>>20398"chilfren are the futire" types are often the biggest sexual/disciplinary predators.
>>25196This is some truly schizophrenic shit. Also your post formatting is beyond asinine. Don't do that asshole.
>>25196The "Children should know their place" attitude absolutely leads to adultism and domestic abuse but I don't believe adults genuinely dehumanize children to that extent, the adultist attitude is a result of adults' egocentrism ("I am big-brained because I have more life experience than you, even though I learned absolutely fucking nothing from it").
>>25198I genuinely believe you have to have a genuine sexual craving to diddle children instead of just being a terrible parent with an inflated ego and anger management issues. But I understand how a pedo might rationalize their actions in the manner you described (sexual predators will rationalize their actions in any way they can in general).
>>12943> liking flat chests isnt a hot take either but its still quite brave of you to say that when everyone likes cowtits these daysRead the dates guys
>>25200ah yes. talking about the domestic discrimination against children is "pedophilia".
Even though everybody loves to talk about the vulnerability of women, elderly, disabled, and transhumanists.
Shonen nimes should have slice of life semi-canon series along with fhe main canon.
Shonen franchises should do a crossover canons.
I think when young characters are sexualized its kind of cringe.
>>25203I would have liked my hero academia a lot more if they did what you said.
>>25217What about old characters?
I dont mean middle aged, but elderly?
There isn't really "good" anime aside from a few one offs that somehow have reached beyond the mediums limitations. But it is entertaining nonetheless.
The Japanese, in general, also suck at writing anything that isn't poetry.
>>25220>The Japanese, in general, also suck at writing anything that isn't poetry.Not true, there's plenty of good Japanese novels and a very very tiny portion of manga even has ok writing.
Something like 70% to 90% of anime adapted from manga are unquestionably worse than the source material, often for reasons no more complicated than "they had a limited budget and so had to rely on padding and simplified art". While the addition of color, sound and movement make the experience more vivid this is hardly worth it if the underlying vision has to be watered down in the process.
Which is all just to say that weebs are dumb for focusing so much on anime over manga and for constantly whining that their favorite manga hasn't been gifted a mediocre adaptation from a B-list studio.
>>25316Compared to the rest of the world, their best literature is still mid tier.
>>20381this.
Awkward-edgy humor is the blight of postboomer humor
