Nostalgia is a mental disease.

Yes, and we all have it. What’s your point? Lost futures. Hauntology. Simulacra. It’s all the reality of a capitalism that will never end. Recursive eternal bullshit. We eat it up. Your referents are all just reflections of what was once real.

Weren't artists paid better than today and teams were bigger than today? So that's why 90s anime looks better?

Doesn't even fucking matter. Aesthetic and symbols are above the material measurement of time in this analysis.

Thanks. Should I watch it?

>Should you watch cowboy bebop???

Yes. It’s very good. 2 seasons and you’re done. Beautiful aesthetic. Deep characters. Neat plots. An actual good dub. MOTHERFUCKING JAZZ.

I just rewatched it after a decade recently and it was still extremely charming.

Nostalgia is literally reactionary and I roll my eyes whenever casuals whine about the present.

The specific era of anime that is romanticized aesthetic wise is late 80s/early 90s. What you think is misinformation is just clumsily worded.

Nostalgia is the by-product of capitalism trying to regurgitate old ideas to avoid competition. Porkies try to feed people something they liked before in the hopes that they'll swallow it up and ask for more. It works sadly.

Nostalgia is as reactionary as morality is. As in it's the root of reactionarism rather than something exclusive to it.

Morality is literally the superstructure. The literal product of social relations. What are you talking about?

I'm saying that just because nostalgia is a component of reactionarism it doesn't make it reactionary, just spooked. Same with morality, morality is literally a set of ideas about the right and wrong social conduct, whether the wrong is killing people or being a homosexual.

i dont know about that one, nostalgia is always about longing for the past

I mean, I get your point. The thing is, while nostalgia is reactionary, the person who experiences it isn't. They simply try to feel the joy they felt before. Granted, it won't necessarily bring them that joy (Nintendo is a living proof of that) but people are extremely naive and forgiving. It's not so much reactionism as it is optimism. Oh, that cancerous optimism. I hate it. It blinds people to reality, it's like heroin.

this reminds me of the idiocy where everyone calls anything that happened in the 2000s decade as "early 2000s"

its like people cannot make the distinction between late and early 2000s. it's so fucking dumb, its basically this but for the decade after it.

i bet something like this is eventually going to happen to the 2010s isn't it

Read a big ass twitter thread earlier lamenting that character design trends have gone down the shitter and they just complained about vtubers and Genshin Impact lol. Vtubers affect nothing outside of the vtubing bubble, and basic anime twinks have been a thing for years.
