>You HAVE to stay in this post-apocalyptic hellhole to raise your rape baby, never seeing your family again, while I go back home to play my Nintendo
>>282842846I don't know what this is but I suspect you aren't giving a totally accurate accounting of the situation
>>282842846Is this show any good? The art look nice
>>282842846>"No child wanted to born into this world hated by their parents"Sorry to hear that you didn't get enough love by your biological parents
>>282843146Very dramatic old school isekai (when other world meant exploration, rather a power fantasy) where a boy hops to a warn thorn world where kids are being killed and fighting on the field in droves, can be seen as suffering porn if you are critical of it.
I think she wanted to stay there, because she'd been kidnapped for so long she couldn't go back.Her parents didn't care much about her and wrote her off as dead or something.Anyway it's just a cartoon, not worth taking seriously.
>yet another potentially good anime ruined by an absolutely insufferable mc
>>282842846Back when isekai was GOOD.
>>282842846Now and Then, Here and There, except I (6' 5", charming, handsome) save Sara, kill Lala Ru and Hamdo, and return to my time as King of Hellywood.
It was an allegory for a country going to war.Children used for war effort, crucial resources under lock and key but also used wantongly for war, rape and abuse of power everywhere, good men like Hamdo and MC snapping and losing their values and going down the dark path.Tezuka did it better in Phoenix though.
>>282843213>t.rape baby
>>282843146>Is this show any good?Yes, but it can be very depressing to watch
>>282842846She wanted to stay there. She wanted to help the orphaned kids of that world.
>>282843054that is literally what happens
ABELIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>>282842846I know /a/ is filled with perpetual manchildren who abhor the thought of having to be responsible, but humanity would die out if people did not do so
>>282845798Dunno who was worse, if the insufferable self righteous MC or this retarded whiny faggot Either way complete dogshit anime. It's comical how it used to show up in "hidden gem" lists
>>282845843rude, i would keep and raise my rape baby
>>282842846Pro-life are nothing but a bunch of retard cunts
It's a different world. Do you really think that at least a quarter of the population of the destroyed future isn't rape babies? It's not at all ridiculous that a person from that time would advise sticking it out, because saying "no really I'm from some other time that isn't shit" is unbelievable.>Aiieeee things suck so I just have to peace out because that's easier for me specificallyOk cool but it turns out your options were the future that's not nice or a future that doesn't exist. What if Lala-Ru decided she liked being alive a lot more than giving the shitty future water again? It's not exactly a complicated allegory.
>>282842846Imagine how lucky the guy is who impregnated this white american hebe
>>282842846Yeah, for the MC it was quite the eventful evening since time barely passed on his world.>>282843146No, it was pretty shit.
>>282845989Nobody would remember this anime if the blondie didn't get raped and pregnant, or if she had chosen to kill the rape fetus and go back home. It's the combination of the two that will always make this anime a controversial one in 4chan.
>>282845843Responsibility is paying debts and helping out neighbors if they need it. Not keeping a rape baby and staying in a hell hole.
>>282843146Do you like misery porn and underdog protagonists? If yes you'll like it.
>>282848150>or if she had chosen to kill the rape fetus and go back home.She was planning to commit suicide, not an abortion. That's why the MC talks her out of it
>>282843146It is good but the MC is a faggot. Not enough to detract from the kino world so it is worth watching
>>282842846Instead of faggy Shu and retard Hanzo, the show should have been about Sara and other girls like her getting raped over and over and being forced to raise their rapists' babies. I'm getting a boner just thinking about it.
>>282842846Was King Hamdo a good character?
>>282848674Shuu is a Shonen Jump character transported into a grimdark postapocalyptic world. The overall plot is well done but his attitude can be absurd at times.>>282848540She was going to bash her stomach with a rock to force a miscarriage, not a good idea especially in Mad Max world with no doctors.>>282849445He's a memorable and believable villain. Instead of having some emo backstory he represents what happens when a weak man is given power. He's a hereditary monarch who represents a stable institution in a chaotic world, so Abelia and the other soldiers are loyal to him despite his weakness. He's at the top of the hierarchy and if that hierarchy is disturbed there a good chance that the whole system will collapse and Heliwood along with it.
>>282843146Fuck no.
>>282845510Does he mention Nintendo?
>>282850254>Mad Max world with no doctorsIt was a doctor that told her she was pregnant
>>282846767>What if Lala-Ru decided she liked being alive a lot more than giving the shitty future water again?IIRC she doesn't die from conjuring the water, she vanishes to some other time where people will fight over her again. The dark side of the ending is that now that there's a big lake at Heliwood, everyone there is probably going to get killed when rival nation sends its army there to capture the water.
>>282849445>>282850254Pretty sure hamdo used be a strong and confident dictator who lost him mind at some point. the weakling crybaby in the show is just the leftovers of his psyche. I understood what they were going for but he was extremely annoying and brought the show down in my book.
>>282843146It’s just 90s Takopi’s Original Sin
Did rape even happen onscreen? I barely remember the plot but I'm sure no one post any webms from this show in rape kino threads.
>>282843146it's tedious misery porn but it looks good
>>282850674The problem is that on top of being annoying he's completely non functional. You can write a mad king that still has followers, but not when he has a literal toddler brain and he's constantly hiding in the corners of his room and shitting himself.
>>282848150I watched the anime and don't remember that part, I guess women would be more sensitive about these things.
>>282850865If Abelia were to kill and depose him, can she be sure that all the military officers will support her? What happens if another guy thinks he should be in charge and starts a civil war for the throne? Heliwood collapses and everyone dies. Hamdo stays in power because as bad as he is, he's preferable to anarchy.
>>282843146Completely skippable. Animation, story and music are nothing special.
>>282843146Very good, it captures the feeling of adventure in the wilderness better than most other anime when they finally leave the tower.The story isn't as depressing as it's made out. It's better than most of what's output today.
>>282843146Any story which uses male-perpetrated rape to demonize men and male sexuality isn't worth engaging with.
>>282853298Are you implying the rapist shouldn't be considered evil for what he did ?
>>282853710>rapistMen can't rape, let alone be "rapists".I did use the term "male-perpetrated rape," yes, but I wasn't using it in an etymologically accurate way; rather, I used it in a conventional sense to get my point across.Men can't "rape" because "rape" etymologically refers to "plundering," and since men are the ones giving during sex, they can't "plunder"; only women can. Just like shoving money into your purse isn't the same as stealing money from it.Men can at most "assault."Only women can "rape," but even women can't be "rapists" because the vast majority of them aren't professionally certified for it. That's an entirely different topic, though; I'll elaborate if you want me to.
>>282853298>>282853710Neither of these apply to this show however.
>>282845843>but humanity would die outAnd nothing of value would be lost.
>>282853989I'd rather you didn't
I love my damaged goods wife
>>282855564NISIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>282855564Character development
>>282843054so new
>>282845843Could she not raise her rape baby back at home
>>282842846The MC should've stayed in that world and help her raise the kid
>>282856181Abelia will help her raise their child instead.
>>282850363No, he means Sega.
>>282857587Hypocrisy, I guess. They would've preferred that girl to commit suicide, rather than choosing to give birth to a baby conceived through rape, rather than abortion. Ain't nothing wrong in giving a birth, but I agree that staying in that isekai world was retarded as fuck. If she wanted to give birth and move on, then her original world was better to raise such a kid.
>>282843146it's really good but sort of marred by OP's complaint>>282845843A healthy human stops eating when they're full (yes FOOD analogy, fuck off). A healthy human turns away excess. Even animal populaces stop having babies when resources are scarce. Most of /a/ can barely take care of themselves. Kids are a crazy financial burden and we're not living in boomer times where you can raise a family of 5 bagging groceries. The reaction you see is a natural response to people acknowledging the overexcess. We're not going to run out of people anytime soon and humanity isn't "dying out". We have too many people and if having less babies is causing the economy to fail that seems more like a major flaw in the required continuous growth that capitalism needs to function. We don't need to go forth and multiply for king and fucking country at this point. If more people saw having a kid as "optional" we'd be in better shape as a society. Too many motherfuckers that have no business raising kids feel compelled to bring them into this world.
>>282853710>Are you implying the rapist shouldn't be considered evil for what he did ?Here, read this.
>>282857749you all get off way too much on being fucked up
>>282857749>1. Men don't rape people, rapists rape people>3. Only men can be rapedAnd men can't be "rapists" or rape people in general. Only women can rape. You should add that in there.
>>282845888I refuse to ever rewatch this fucking anime.
>>282857784Are (You) new here?
>>282857706It wouldn't be my decision. I'm pro-choice. If someone wanna abort, do it. If someone doesn't wanna, it's fine. That's why I don't get those lamentations about the girl from that anime and her decision.
>>282858014>yugioh me.png
>>282857784where do you think you are?
>>282843830>>282842846>>282843213>>282843830>>282857522>>282850773>Falls in love with her handsome rapist>People more upset over her not getting an abortion than the show redeeming her rapist lover with a heroic sacrifice
>>282859252>Falls in love with her handsome rapistThis is why this show is a great filter. It shows the which viewers are retards every time.
>>282859252It's been several years since I watched it, but I'm pretty sure she never falls in love with him. At best, she forgives him when he sacrifices himself to save a child.
It's just a masochist's rebuttal of Mirai Shounen Conan taken too far. I'm pretty sure those behind making this show liked the stress and difficulty of the escape from the tower and journey through the desert section of MSC, but didn't like the indomitable heroism paying off and just wanted it to be misery porn. They didn't try to hide it either and copied (and exaggerated) the tyrant, the elite military woman, the hard headed boy and the tragic girl of strategic importance
That part where the hobo raped her was so hot.
>>282860694Indomitable heroism still wins in the end though? The MC can't save Lala-Ru but his determination is ultimately the catalyst for Hamdo's undoing. One of the complaints I've heard about the show is that Shu's hard-headedness passes the point of idiocy and shouldn't have been rewarded with any sort of victory.
>>282842846>I HAVE to stay in this post-apocalyptic hellhole to raise my rape baby, never seeing my family again, while you go back home to play your NintendoFixed. And you're one stupid sack of shit if Shu's going home all fine and dandy. As soon as he gets home and his mom asks him how kendo practice was he's just going to collapse. >>282859252She didn't fall in love with him. I can appreciate the "nice" rapist getting some kind of redemption. Just because you're a rapist doesn't mean you can't do good things elsewhere. That doesn't make you a good person or erase the horrible thing you did, but does that really matter? That kid's still alive because of him. It's gross, complicated, and suits the show perfectly.
>>282842846Man this show was so fucking good.They don't make them like they used to.
>>282859252She never fell in love with him, it's just that the guy died trying to save her and that left some effect on her. Her heart was stolen by that first guy who deflowered, you can see her thinking of him plenty of times.
>>282845843t. the father who stepped up
>>282845843you don't need to sell it to me more
>>282842846I've watched a lot of anime over the years and I can't remember a single show that can capture the hopelessness and despair this show does.And as far at the rape scene, bold move showing such a realistic scene by a people who are guilty of more rape and war crimes than humanity will ever know.
>>282845843I don't care about humanity.I hope it dies out.This show is good because it makes life-affirmers seethe even though it is a life-affirming show.
>>282864364>I've watched a lot of anime over the years and I can't remember a single show that can capture the hopelessness and despair this show does.Can you name a few that come close?
>>282842846I've cum so much to her story arc over the past two decades. It will always have a place of honor in my collection
>>282842846Sarah chose to stay put on the planet and raise the kid herself.
>>282848970So am ISO AM I
>>282864921I'm sure she grew to be very happy, satisfied, and fulfilled with that decision.
>>282842846This was so fucking stupid. What a badly written show.>>282843146Well animated and dramatic but very dumb.
>>282843340That's stupid even if you hated your family's guts so bad that you'd want to condemn them to never knowing how you disappeared, whether you died, and leaving them in this horrible horrible situation... you'd still go back to the modern world instead of the apocalyptic shithole. It's so fucking obvious
>>282862259>Fixed.That doesn't really make anything better, it's still a choice nobody would ever make
