>What're you gonna do to us, a-anon?
Anime just ain't the same without the degen stuff like fanservice.And no, the reddit bird having ironic panty shots doesn't count.
>>150844286degenerate things of course! is this your first day in the anime club?!
What's this? Cropped porn or a screnshot of something?
>>150844286Mutah with the muslima
>>150844286why, poorly learn a different language! ^_^
>>150844286Oh, hallo Lily und Sari, wie gehts?
>>150844286Did this trash at the very least increase the r34 for these two characters? If not then it contributed nothing.
Nothing, Disney already axed your shitty show and mindbroken your creator mind
They're trying too hard to make this a thing.
>>150844286I would ask them very nicely to change my diaper, and if they say no, I will take it off and throw it at them.
>>150845961KEK
>>150844286Amity and Luz look a little bit different.
>>150844286Cuddles
>>150846759Yeah, it reeks of desperation and was made at least a decade too late...
I thought this was Luz and that girl from the molly ghost show
>>150844286They're deliberately trying to look like Owl House now?
>>150847029Kek
>>150844286they keep forcing this hijab shit as the standard and i've yet to meet anyone on the street who looks like that
>>150848425Are there any hijab-wearing girls in animation that accurately represent Muslim or Arabic women and their culture?Or are they mostly just idealized portrayals based on nothing more than clothing style and skin color, without proper cultural or religious representation?I know it doesn't sound like it, but it is an honest question.
>>150848425Go anywhere in the UK or Canada and you'll see someone wearing it within 10 minutes of walking outside
>>150844286You reminded me to do my daily. 355 days learning Russian.
>>150848665>Or are they mostly just idealized portrayals based on nothing more than clothing style and skin color, without proper cultural or religious representation?This.
>>150848665It's just "let's try to look as diverse as possible" without really looking into what they're adding. In the same way as having the same approach for a smoothie and random stuff in your fridge, the end result is brown slop.
>>150844286I thought these were just chucklebone's designshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yLuUXLWR9Yc
>>150848425it's hot tho so I let it slide
>>150844774I thought so too, but unfortunately it's just a Duolingo "anime"
>>150848425I live in a town that’s 80% white and I see women in hijabs all the time
>>150844286Well, first the shoes come off, then I get the feather
>>150844286I fucking LOVE brown women
>>150848425Cause third generation dont even wear them anymore.
>>150848425because it's the most clear representation of a muslim girl. A muslim with out a hijab would just look like a normal person, and wouldn't meet their wokeness quote. also it's cute
>>150844286Im more annoyed this is considered anime. It's decently animated western cartoon but totally not a japanese anime.
>>150848665https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mKjH-WKOBHM
I wish the eps weren't so short, there is barely anything to talk about. There are supposed to be five of these, so maybe once they're all out they'll combine them all into one actual short. https://youtu.be/vwkEOG6_8_s
>>150850840>Oscar is gayAlright, anons. What's the deal with Hollywood making sure all Hispanic/Latino males are as emasculated or faggy as possible? Is it the macho culture that used to exist?>Marco from Star VS: Princess Marco>Bobby from Loud House: the weird shipping with Lincoln>Blue Beetle/Jaime: Young Justice friendship with Impulse>Pedro Pascal: his entire existence
>>150851050I think it's less about Oscar being Latino and more about him being the "artsy" guy of the group. Also the stuff with Bobby is just fanart, it shouldn't count. In the actual show he has only ever shown attraction to his girlfriend and like one or two other girls.
>>150851135Danny from Bravest Warriors?
>>150844286>>150850816first wife, second wife.
>>150851573>polyamoryew.
>>150851050If everywhere smells like shit, check your shoe. None of those examples you listed hold up to scrutiny. You are seeing what you want to see because you subsist on outrage and a persecution complex. tldr: you're gay
>>150850816they always give her a giant butt
>>150852100That's how it is on the show. >>150851158Dunno, I didn't watch Bravest Warriors or those other examples besides Marco, and I'm guessing it was less of an agenda and more someone on the writing team being a freak (maybe Nefcy herself who knows.)
>>150851135He’s Latino? I always thought he was Indian?
>>150851674It is Allah's will.
>>150852179That's literally Amity
>>150848665no, they"re all ugly, overweight, with hooked nose, greasy face, and shitty clothes, not to mention overly vulgar and rude, retard and superstitious and aggressive and also proselyte and fanatic . >Or are they mostly just idealized portrayals based on nothing more than clothing style and skin color, without proper cultural or religious representation?I've just answered your question.
>>150852712that's a bit rude, don't you think? Surely that aren't ALL like that, right?
>>150852295I was curious to see who came first, but it seems they both came out around the same time. They're both from 2020. https://youtu.be/m-3-D7S0piw>>150852207That's what I thought too.
>>150852739the other option are glass wearing, "intellectual type who tried to pose as liberals just to bring islamic need, values and privileges on the table with lefties at college or something. that's it. that's all experience I had with hijab wearing women, leaving out the +60 grandma. it's not just "a clothing" it comes with a culture, ideology and a state of mind. so no, every media who show a hijab girl being "just one of the modern girl, but with a clothes from her culture or religion" is missing the point.
>>150851674it's ffm
>>150852943still polygamous (cringe and greedy)
>>150850277>spoiler Maybe when it's when like a hoodie and not a Thomas the tank engine face on an egg.
>>150852961whatever you say.
>>150844286You must eat all the eggs.
>>150844286OH NO NO NO NO NO
>>150853386Impregnate, impregnate, impregnate and...impregnate.
>>150852739>wahhhhhh you are so rudeGrow some stones, pussy
Muslims are all inbred retards they should be ridiculed at all opportunities
>>150848425>>150848665That's just what the character looks like
>>150853420The correct opinion
why'd they make the muslim girl so fuckable? they didn't have to
yasashi bengoshi gohan mizu kudasai desu
>>150851699Gaslighting nigger, go back to bluesky
>>150850816Are they a canon couple? Or are they just shipped together cuz they look like Luz and Amity?
>>150848665I love Luz's free-spirited nature so I hate that they used a trad Muslim woman (inherently a slavish and timid creature) as her representation
>>150855281They're just friends. In the Duolingo app, you sometimes listen to little stories involving the characters and some of Zari's show her having a crush on a guy. As far as I know the only canon gay characters are Oscar, Bea (black lady), and Lin (sidecut lady.)
>>150848665Usually in comedies to either make fun of them or to be the MCs joke friends/neighbors
>>150852739No. But does that matter? The point of function is to not be realistic. Just entertaining.
You know, with all the dickriding you guys give anime, it's a stark contrast to how /a/ operates. I tried making a thread by saying I'm a /co/ lurker looking for anime recommendations and they all told me to fuck off. I guess all that bitching you guys do about modern western cartoons being beaten by anime really is spiteful dishonest ramblings of awkward nerds. By the way, this show looks mid. I still wanna fuck the two girls but I want Duolingo to stop using AI.
>>150852918Amity didn't have the purple hair look until halfway through season 2 though, so whatever this anime garbage is, they did it first if both came at the same time. Considering how little originality there is to the owl house, I'm not surprised to find another thing they ripped off.
>>150851050Well, it's simple.>We need somebody that fills as many checkboxes as possible!If it didn't make animation and storyboarding harder, they'd wheelchair him too.
>>150851699>If all these confirmed gay characters are gay and you notice, you must be gay too!Or, you know, he has eyes. Definitely one of the two options!
>>150856922The only people that dick rides anime on /co/ are retards who just hates /co/mblr or artists in a nutshell. I use both /a/ and /co/ and still have problems how both boards view comics and animation. The separation is strictly a pageantry where most western cartoons are from a single country that is the USA, while the majority of other cartoons from the UK are NOTHING like the state's sensibilities.The United States treats cartoons as a product to entertain kids so mommy & daddy can do whatever, and for retardedly bored adults to laugh at toilet humor to get stoned to.
>>150856922>I tried making a thread by saying I'm a /co/ lurker looking for anime recommendations and they all told me to fuck off./r/ was made for this
>>150857111Huh? Are there UK cartoons? I thought it was only France doing a few back in the 2000s and that's all.
>>150856922You could've simply said you wanted recommendations without saying you come from another board. You made your thread sound like you were trying to start trouble. Like, imagine>I come from /pol/. Are there any comic recommendations for me?How long do you think such a thread would be up? It reeks of bait. Don't blame your lack of social skills on the boards.
>>150857111That's odd cause I've seen more recent shows made for adults that are not Family Guy clones as of late. It does feel like the medium is held back especially these days, you just have to be a really good salesperson to convince a company to fund your idea.>>150857153I didn't know /r/ allowed hyper specific requests like that, good to know
>>150857202OhI didn't think it came across that way, thanks.
>>150851699I'm so glad at the end of the day all sides can find a consensus in mocking fags.
>>150857211>I didn't know /r/ allowed hyper specific requests like that, good to knowActually it's /wsr/ these days, /r/ was turned into a NSFW only board
>>150857278To clarify, you can suck dick and not be a fag?
>>150856922>i acted like a retard and got called a retard, how is this everyone else's fault?
>>150855537>As far as I know the only canon gay characters are Oscar, Bea (black lady), and Lin (sidecut lady.)And how do people know about that?
>>150857337How is it retarded to be transparent of where you're from? How was I supposed to know that boards hated each other at first glance?NOW I know because you all hate each other
>>150850816>>150853386>>150855537Are people truly shipping them despite knowing what her culture would do to Zari?
>>150857536They're doing it exactly because of that
>>150856922/co/cksuckers are just like /v/ermin. The modern Anon hates cartoons, hasn't read a comic in years and their exposition to the medium is limited to Marvel and DC... from instagram reels, TikTok, that one guy who uses AI voices in Youtube to summarize comic book runs, or Death Battle and its copies. Hence why most complaints here are the disconnected ramblings of bitter men.Shit dog, everyone has been shitting on IDW Sonic non-stop. I've just finished the whole thing and it's alright, but some Anons swear its worse than ten 911s, as if IDW fucked their pets or something.
>>150844286Could a thread about this be made on /a/?
>>150857890yes. it's called an "anime" so you could. Hell, I even might
>>150852207Vikram is the Indian guy. Oscar's ethnicity isn't really brought up, but he's a Mexican supposedly.
>>150853386OH YES YES YES YES YES
>>150857410https://blog.duolingo.com/lgbtq-representation-in-duolingo-stories-and-characters/Lily and Zari are nowhere to be found here, so they are safe.
>>150844286How does having these absolute semen demons as characters help you learn different languages?
>>150858108makes blood flow (to da penis) which increases general blood flow (which puts more blood in ya head to do da languages)
i'm in love
>>150858046>Allowing an LGBTQ character to exist without specifically drawing attention to that identity—this is something we believe should be a best practice in storytelling. In order to normalize something, you simply present it as normal, which means you don’t draw attention to it when depicting it.>That’s why there’s very little focus on these characters’ queerness. They simply happen to not be heterosexual; it doesn’t define them, and there’s not much discussion around their sexual orientation. It’s just a single part of their identity and their story.To think that Duolingo has more insight on proper inclusion in writing than most modern showrunners should be a telltale sign that something is not right in the industry.
>>150858046>"Lin dates women">Sidecut, single ear earring (likely a piercing) and dresses like a slobEvery. Single. Time.
>>150858216My Musluz shouldn't be this cute!
>>150858823To be honest, the only one I knew was gay via using the app was Lin and even if it hardly ever came up, her sidecut made it pretty obvious. I never paid much attention to Bea and most of Oscar's stories are about him being a big snob. I don't recall any of them mentioning a boyfriend or partner.
>>150857940Tell me how it goes
>>150853386Ew the bottom two
>>150851050You need to remember that there's not a whole lot of Hispanics/Latin people in the American entertainment industry. The place is populated by Anglos, Jews, or Asian nepobabies with rich families. Hardly ANY of them live around Hispanics, and Hispanics certainly don't want to live near them.The influx of women in the industry (and corporate-mandated percentages of female dialogue/characters) has resulted in a lot of women (and men) either writing men as women (since they don't know how to write men), or as immature children. Write what you know and all that. Latin men tend to be pretty macho/chauvinist/high T...

>>150856922>I'm a /co/ lurker looking for anime recommendationsanon, if you know anything about /a/, you know rec threads are against the rules, come on. Though to be fair, /a/ definitely shits on a lot of anime but that doesn't mean they wont shit on western shows more. It's like when Americans shit on America but will still choose to act superior when comparing it to other countries. Either way I don't really care, both mediums have good and bad stuff, though I'm a /co/tard at heart
Wait, I thought it was Miko and what's her name from Glitch Tech, I regret posting in this thread now.
>>150858216Holy sexo I wonder if a cute muslim wife would be nice. >>150858823It's propaganda 101, thank god hollywood is too stupid to figure this out
couldn't they hire Jap animators?
>>150844286Learn Italian
>>150856922let me be honest, for me, it's so fucking stupid how /co/ or gaijins (especially americans) in general often tries to play the victim like this. it's like rich white kids in 1950s claim they are actually the victims of discrimination. you guys are getting away with making shitty fake-anime without hiring Japs and stealing anime art styles from Japs like it's nothing, and no, your cartoons will never get the same level of insults and slanders anime has got. it's pretty concerning.
>>150846759"Trying too hard in marketing" is basically just Duolingo's whole thing. They pump so much money into all these elaborate cutesy things with their characters so it's ever present in social media feeds. Sometimes they make something good, sometimes bad, but they're always making something.The only thing they don't put any effort into anymore is the actual app itself. It's the same as Red Bull who are just everywhere to a level that's absurd for what is just marketing an energy drink which doesn't even taste good.
>>150858046I wish Bea got as much love in art as Lily and Zari do, but she got a redesign which put her hair up and clothing which aged her by like 20 years. The hair down look is cute.

New ep is up. It seems like they're coming out every two days, so the next one should be on Sunday. It also seems like one character gets eliminated per episode, but there are only two more episodes left and the group currently has four people. So either there will be more than one survivor or there will be a cliffhanger for a season two maybe. https://youtu.be/GSrU2LSOZRE
