Japan saving the anime
>>284735555Based Hideaki Anus
>>284735555It makes sense. When the rest of the world is dropping western entertainment because it's been completely neutered, it'd be stupid to do the same as well with Japanese entertainment.
>>284735555congratulations
>>284735600
>>284735555So he's accepting he'll die irrelevant. Good for him.
>>284735645There's a reason for it, but we know thread will be deleted and banned
>>284735555>>284735600>>284735713Shitposting aside he is unironically right, some anime series are being censored thanks to CEOs trying to appeal to said "Global Market" >"Macross" OVA "Macross Dynamite 7" has been confirmed to be censored on most streaming services (Japan & Global).>The cut scenes depict the character Mylene getting drugged by her manager in order to sexually assault her.>Disney+/Hulu has recently started streaming the franchise in many countries. https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/interest/2025-01-20/several-minutes-from-macross-dynamite-7-streaming-release-cut-in-japan-globally/.220056>According to the CEO of Disney Japan himself they ask the studios to remove most of the nudity from the anime adaptations if they want them to be on Disney Plus in order to make the anime more "marketeable" in the West:https://web.archive.org/web/20240519075707/https://www.cbr.com/disney-anime-acceptable-wide-market-audience/that would explain why the later MHA seasons
>>284735829(continuing) that would explain why the later MHA seasons remain censored even in the BD, since they have a exclusive deal with Disney Plus for streaming in Japan (pre Disney Plus deal seasons had Himiko Toga fully nude (even if Barbie Doll) when she used her powers on BD meanwhile the TV version had her body colored brown or grey, after Disney Plus got the exclusive streaming rights her body remains grey when she loses her clothes even in the BD). this could be the reason as to why Pop Step's costume was censored for vigilantes, but who knows?
>>284735829You're almost there, but thats not it. Numerous industry leaders have spoken up about the specifics of censorship, you just cant discuss what is being censored for fear of being censored here on 4chan. You can search the uncensored internet for the interviews and quotes from various industry leaders in both anime and games industry of Japan.
>>284735555then why did he remake the series for a global audience
>>284735555
>>284736155>>>/co/
>>284735829>>284735853The studio behind OniMai also refuses to sell the uncensored version outside of Japan, only selling a censored version for overseas streaming services, so if you legally watch OniMai outside Japan you are getting a censored version, the studio did the same with Mushoku Tensei (which they also animated) after season 1. so if you watch Mushoku Tensei outside Japan legally, then you are getting a censored version, leaving piracy as the only way you can watch this studio's shows uncensored
>>284735600>>284735713I liked Gunbuster more than Eva
>>284736362Which is funny given how tame those show are compared to other series that are sold overseas without problems, that dumb studio is just being way too fucking paranoid
>>284736362I swear these guys know at this point that true fans pirate and support through buying merch and maybe even Japanese BDs. They do this to save face with corporations while having little affect on the guys actually making them anything overseas. It does still bother me to think of people watching censored copies without knowing, but I'm a bit snobbish in that way. I suppose if anything, it will give them a nice surprise down the line if they become a fan. Almost recreating the effect of broadcast to BD.
no thanks to any of you faggots, go buy a dvd
>>284736465Understandable
>>284736710Just those two states, honestly. We've always looked down on them.
Since 2011, Japan has adopted a bold strategy of "do absolutely nothing." This must be another phase of that and we'll eventually see a surge in creative output.
>>284735829>>284736362Current Japanese companies just need some backbone
>>284736684Some of the guys at BIND are strange. Mushoku Tensei has no problem showing loli ass while appealing to a pretty broad demographic. Yet Onimai, where they took a gag comic and sexed it up for lolicons, for some reason can't show the full thing. You can't even use the excuse of the lockdown period being harsher times, as Mushoku Tensei again was around the same period. Ruri Rocks also skipped out on butts at least in broadcast, we'll see what happens in BDs though. My only guess at the logic behind it all is that the source material lacked butts so they didn't show them. It is admirable in a way if they are that dedicated to fitting the source material. I might be too hyper fixated on butts but they are pretty.
>>284736895>implying the studio decidesHow can you retards be this stupid? The studio doesn't own the IP. The production committee does. They decide what gets shown and what not. Not the studio.God you retards are pathetic.
>>284735713>Anno choose 2015 as the date for Evangelion just because he liked Astro Boy >>284736774Cute
>>284736952Sorry, I'm still stuck in some of the dumb common ways of thinking. It does make a bit more sense. I notice far more based producers with a line of good projects than any other staff members for instance. Stuff like channel/service and who owns the source material do matter a lot. While it has been fixed now because of actions by Sony, but there was a point when Kadokawa stuff was starting to be censored more for instance. I guess I was just a bit frustrated and trying to find someone easy to blame. It was great, but I'm greedy and think about all the possibilities if it was even less restricted.

>>284735555Mari feet
>>284737044Fuck no. America gets more hysterically retarded by the day and that isn't coming to an end until some kind of catastrophic paradigm shift.
>>284736774Nice >>284736890>>284737250A shame Ranma's remake was so shit
>American comicsEat shit /co/ck sucker you aren’t fooling anyone
>>284735555Good!Fuck western politically correct crap.Anime will heal the world!
>Superman has a gay sonDccucks everyone

>>284737726Bravo Mappa
>>284735555why would someone watch foreign media and expect it to cater to their culture anyway?
>>284735555Quads confirm it."Localizing" foreign media is fucking stupid anyway. A big part of the appeal of foreign media is seeing how foreign culture influences their entertainment and media, be it the culture and expectations of the general population or the moviegoers. Look at all the games that are described as "slavjank", janky they may be but people still love them because of that jank because to them it's fresh and different.Not to mention when people say "localize for a global market", it's code for "localize for Americans". People need to accept that foreign media has different standards, different practices, different tropes, different cliches, and different ways of depicting them. Not to mention going over foreign media with a laser-guided knife to remove any foreign concepts is pretty fucking racist. Imagine if someone decided to "gentrify" a black show like The Boondocks to appeal to white people, it would completely destroy it because it is at its core about black american culture and its influence on black people.
>vtumers
>>284735555He's right on this one.Fuck America.
Check the catalog next time, gay boy Also, rebuilds are shit, pandering to the chuds isn't going to change that.
>>284737726
>words words words muh adapt to japan>meanwhile loli anime and gravure are doomedanno is a poser
>>284735555It doesn't matter what he thinks. The anime industry right now is barely being held together by outsourcing and old men. Soon Anno will need foreign investment if he wants to make another big project.
>>284739749Why would he want to make a big project, make a small one. Investors can shove a missile up their assholes.
>>284739749Japanese gov passed a law that bans censorship of anime by foreigners
>>284735555Takaichi is saving the anime. She returns bikinis from anime, which were banned by Ishiba. No anime was censored when Abe Shinzo was PM. Kishida started censoring anime on 2022, Ishiba worsened it. But Takaichi stopping this censorship and returning bikinis to anime. Pic rel is JCs fyi.
Thread being detailed by bots for reasons.
>>284736774Nice hips
>>284736794Time to visit Japan again
>>284739013He's too experienced to still be a boobfag. Legs and butts is where it's at.
>>284735555Hideaki Anno is right, he always is, but he's a hack. All of his anime are barely watchable garbage and his live action films are even worse. If a global audience adapts to his output then humanity is fucked.
>>284735555Good decision, Anno. Don't change what makes anime special
>>284735829Fuck disney
>>284736362>leaving piracy as the only way you can watch this studio's shows uncensoredThis is one of the main reasons I pirate. Unironically paying for CR, Funimation etc does more damage to the anime industry than pirating
>>284736890We have to go back
>>284737662>>284737675>western politically correct crap.People really think Anno is “anti-woke” and Zoomers ruined Evangelion as if the main protagonist of his most well known series isn’t canonically queer. That show came out before most Zoomers were even born.Same people who believe Zoomers ruined Guilty Gear and Daisuke’s vision when Daisuke the one who made Bridget a girl in the first place. Plus Testament has been non-binary since the beginning.>>284737498Go woke, get gold picrel, Absolute Batman total victory
>>284737675boo! Gay people in anime!
>>284749563>Shinji>"canonically queer"?????Let me guess you think the same about Homura Akemi too Sure is easy to claim anime culture agrees with you when you can just pretend it does
