Streaming. If anime never got past bittorrent in accessibility, then the zoomers who largely stream everything and watch anime from some shitty stream site on their phones largely would not have discovered it.

The US military is full of weebs, always has been. The Navy is particularly known for it, because of the scale of operations out of Japan. Same with the Marines. But it's not just the Navy and Marines.
Life in the military is hurry up and wait. Very boring 99.99% of the time, and then sheer terror adrenaline rush the other 0.01%. People are going to be doing other stuff as much as possible, trying to stay entertained. They're going to talk about shit they like to their fellow service members even while on the job, doing maintenance and shit. If your job was to sit around all day bored out of your mind, would you talk about an anime you like? Would you share it with your buddies? Would they, equally as bored as you, be glad to sit around your laptop and watch whatever it is you're watching? Would they become fans too?
Now consider that, at least among enlisted, they're almost all pretty conservative in their values. Is Hollywood producing media that appeals to conservatives right now? Is the media Hollywood is producing helping their audience escape from the drudgery or their lives or reminding them of stressful real life things? Anime actually gives what audiences want when it comes to entertaining, conservative-valued escapism. The military is also mostly male, and anime is mostly featuring attractive females. So there's that going on too. Nobody on a military base forward deployed for months on end in some shitty desert country where the women all wear burkas or whatever wants to look at Zendaya and Lizzo in their free time.

What is actually the significance of RT showing this? The russians don't like that the burgers attack their allies yet again, but on the other hand, focusing on iran helps them with their two weeks special operation. But what does the anime aspect add propaganda wise?

For one, US attacked iran (again) despite the ceasefire they signed

Also, foreign US military bases are being used to attack other countries rather than for security of the host country, which is why Russia doesn't want US or their military alliance in Ukraine

One of few media left with depictions of women that are kind and loving. Anime is a shelter from most other media.

Anime actually gives what audiences want when it comes to entertaining, conservative-valued escapism. The military is also mostly male, and anime is mostly featuring attractive females.
Arguably that's a big factor for anime's mainstream popularity in general: Being a source of entertainment unashamed to pander to straight men. Hollywood entertainment is terminally contaminated by muh male gaze discourse. Anime is where straight guys can go and still be welcomed unconditionally.

>>288363476
Nah, it is objectively true that they're doing it for Russian interests. It sucks that the war in Ukraine is happening, but they would be completely fucked like Cuba, Iran, Lebanon, and Venezuela if they didn't preemptively attack first.

>Is Hollywood producing media that appeals to conservatives right now?
They are, but no one cares about it because it is generic. Conservatives don't even like it themselves, they just like anime because it is something new.

For the purpose of this discussion it's not relevant if Zion Don and his merry band of Netanyahoo dick lickers can find some Jewlywood movies and shows that are to their liking. The question is if Joe Shmoe can. And Joe Shmoe doesn't care to go to the movies to be lectured about the evil of the nazis, all of whom were white and male and despicable just like Joe Shmoe btw, and that's why every Joe has a moral obligation to give his undying support to Israel till the sun burns out. Joe Shmoe wants flicks and shows about capable male heroes supported by pleasant female love interests who have nice tiddies. Take a wild guess where he's most likely to find that. (Hint: Not in any product coming out of Jewlywood)

Because most western sources of kid/young adult media died out or are in the process of dying out. Cartoons are either for babies or family guy, no in-between. The comic industry's characters are more valuable than the stories they are in, so its just all generic capeshit that never ends. The MCU is headed down the same path now. Star Wars and most western sci-fi are now irrelevant. Anime/Manga are widely accessible and appeal to the teen/young adult age group. Its not fucking rocket science that your average G.I. likes it.

It's just so weird because Russian moralfagging is Australia-tier. Lolicon is considered CP. Russia even tried to push treating lolicon the same as CP internationally in the cybercrime convention.
They declared some mainstream anime child porn.
Death Note is banned because it's too violent.
Anime streaming sites got banned because of "promoting pedophilia".
Prisma Illya was banned as child pornography.

>if only you knew how bad things really are.jpg
Somewhere very early on in 2023 /jp/'s janny got sacked, probably because a crossboard raid discord complained about him actually responding to reports about them and the mods listened to a group of some of the worst bottom feeding filth from /trash/ for some god forsaken reason. A couple of months later 4chan, got a round of new janitors and the new janitor for /jp/ was some insane tranny from that same discord. The janitor stayed there until the hack incident despite several years of complaints about him and his discord friends.

You can probably guess how that went for the board and the specific threads that the discord and their pet janny were targeting.
