Why is anime still so misogynistic and sexualized in the current year? And why is Japan refusing to become more progressive, like the West?
the main character is a simp faggot tho
>>215533512>incel-friendly indelicacy
>I hate this thing made for me
>>215533512I hate the term ‘manosphere’
kek I read that one too. where does the guardian find these freaks?
>>215533760Then what term do you prefer?
WB sold their anime business that's exploding in popularity worldwide, and they doubled down on the superhero bubble of the 2010s. I'm really tired of Gunncucks claiming WB knows what they're doing
well, it's shonen
>>215533512You just know that reviewer never shuts up about media literacy.

>>215533512>waaah the demons trying to kill each other shouldn't be toxically masculine ahhhh I'm having a melty!
>>215533875Where are the racist tweets in question?
>>215533512>losing your shit at fucking CSM of all things for being too chuddyJust imagine if Taxi Driver came out in the current year, these freaks would stroke out
>>215533512Denji is one of the most pathetic characters in shonen, literally every single woman in the series plays with him like a toy.
>>215533786>where does the guardian find these freaksThis is what every single White British woman turns into after hitting age 30. If you ever wonder why the UK is the way it is, just remember these people are the ones running the show.

denji is canonical trucel all the way to the climatic peak we are at currently which is based, he might get aids tho from semendemondevil which is still based but also cringe
They've always been that way. The Japanese are a race of perverts.
>>215533994>does /tv/ like Chainsaw ManFrom what I can tell the ones that aren't of the Hollywood Chauvinist Boomer demographic seem to like it for the most part. I'm not a fan but I enjoy seeing Zoomerchads rape Boomersissies and their Springsteen slop into the dust with it.>the author is a huge film westaboo like kojimaHe's more like Watanabe imo, he's not as smooth as Kojima
>>215534034>aidsI thought AIDS didn't exist in the CSM universe, much like nukes and the Holocaust
>>215533959that's kind of the point but the guardian can't get it apparently
>>215534073wardevil is all bout dem nukes unc
>>215533512>misogynisticAre they mad about Makima being the modern archetype for toxic femininity?
Leftoids literally can't write an article without mentioning >trump>musk>rogan>tate>"the algorithm">"the manosphere"
>>215534101bish wanted to make all men her slave dogs and control the minds of everyone, she any woman from 2025 men need to take a chainsaw to that concept
>>215534127They're mad all their woke shit flops and yet all the supposedly horrible man stuff hits
>>215534073Nukes got reinvented so War got her groove back, AIDS is still deleted so you would probably get syphilis or some shit
>>215533914Disagreeing with a non-white is racism according to Marxist Jew Demons.
The idea that the east (which created tranime) is standing in opposition to the west is some typical retarded zoomer revisionism probably learned from a millennial grifter on YouTube… tranime comes from the east. it has always been wildly gay. meanwhile the west was making action films starring Bruce Willis.
>>215533994It’s the only manga I regularly keep up with these days.and yes, it’s very clear that Fujimoto is a big fan of western films.
>>215533875
>nooooo you can't have an immature protagonist that learns a lesson leftoids usually aren't this stupid but they often expose themselves when they try hard to shit on Japanese shit
>>215534177As long as there are homos, aids will come back.
>>215534243"childless single men who masturbate to anime" was used by a political analyst to describe Trump supports a decade.The term "Tranime" was invented by soijak fags in between having the vapors over an 18 year old streamer dming a 15 year old or some shit.Anime is the only form of media left the openly and unashamedly caters to the mail gaze. If you're a tranny obsessed faggot you probably won't like it.
>>215534243The sex swap of ranma was full magic complete conversion and mostly seated in wanting a woman who acted like a man while not sounding or physically resembling a man in any way.

>>215534385>mail gaze
>>215534290>>215534517the best part is his witch wife clearly had a covered up herpes sore at some point in the episode if I recall correctly

>>215534035The human race is a race of perverts.The only people that don't like sex are religious weirdos and dried up roasters. I wish feminists would jettison the prudes, they do absolutely nothing to helptheir cause.
I have no idea what even counts as misogyny these days, it's as nebulous as racism.
>Watch the dub version in theaters>Sit next to these two twink nerdy dudes>I laugh when Nomo tells Reze that he's a sucker for women with a nice piece of ass>The two twinks groan and one of them says "Really"?When will these faggots realize that shounen is catered mainly to young men who are into crude sexual humor?
>>215534047>he's not as smooth as KojimaThis is the dude that fucking reviews the shittiest Marvel movies like they're masterpieces. Please eat shit. Meanwhile this movie had a No Country For Old Men reference.Kojimatards are actually braindead.
>>215533814the masculineradialinfluence
>>215535345Basically, you have to let women do whatever they want at all times while funding it and not complaining, otherwise misogyny. Exactly like racism. i WoNdEr HoW tHaT hApPuN?!?1?
>>215533814Intelligent society
>>215533512So, Americans are afraid of this kind of "backlash" and are no longer able to make watchable animated films?
>>215533512>Japanese cartoon man enjoys dismembering a woman= >:(>Evil clown enjoys mutilating women= :O
>>215535432Or any other kind of films.
>>215535355To be fair, he doesn't say that in the Japanese dub or in the manga. It's a dub original line.
>>215534261>it’s very clear that Fujimoto is a big fan of western filmssurely, you jest.
>>215535292Well okay. There's sex, then there's sex with a corpse that turns into a horny demon that rapes a nurse until his schlong expands to the size of a telephone pole and she explodes in a shower of viscera and blue glowing cum. There's a kind of a divide there, and the Japanese have always been able to bridge it with ease.
>>215535443>>215533512>>215535443Denji does not call it a rush to cut off her leg (unless that's a completely rewritten, entirely retconning complete mistranslation nonsense dub line). He is actually upset that they're fighting to the death (instigated by her trying to murder him and at once point reducing him to only the charred head and upper body of a corpse) BECAUSE it's a waste to cut off such a beautiful leg.where's your media literacy now faggot?
>>215533814Normal people with good taste and correct opinions.
>>215533512Japan is pozzed now.
>>215533512Debt with 250% GDP they must have tried to take on that part of the world, and lost..
>>215533512A lot of these types whinge about anything dudebro/filmbro adjacent while loving anything girlboss adjacent. If it's a perverted film but it's directed by a woman or gay person, they'll love it and embrace it. It's a kind of blatant bias that I'll never understand. Letterboxd is full of them.
>>215533512>And why is Japan refusing to become more progressive, like the West?Why do faggots confuse "progressive" with "regressive"?
>>215533814It's only initially annoying because it's used as a derogatory by fags and fems. But If you gave me a little dark age edit with some nazis and giga chad and master chief where Manosphere was where agartha is then I'd be ok with manosphere.
>>215533959Better than gaslighting the audience into cheering for psychopathic foids like sakura.
>>215535358>This is the dude that fucking reviews the shittiest Marvel movies like they're masterpieces.>takes Kojima shitposting at face valueGo back

>>215533512They are really pushing the “Manosphere” meme.
>>215536937It's the only boogeyman they have left to explain why they lost in 2024.
>>215535759This
>>215533512Might start watching it. Anime have become so censored and shitty because of women wanting to ruin everything. If this is really like the anime's from old, should be amazing.
>>215533512I already told you I'm watching it you don't have to sell me
>>215533814Phallocracy
>>215537001There's a nude swimming scene at the High School at night with the two main characters, and both of them are basically Barbie and Ken dolls.Just letting you know before you get excited.
It's unintentionally funny when the lead, Denji, remarks that "He's finally seen a girl's nipple" in his inner dialogue, and neither of them are drawn with nipples at all.
Also there was a new extended trailer for Sisu, which now has more outrageous stunts that the last Fast and Furious movie.
>>215537042In the manga it doesn't explicitly show nipples, because the scene is dark. The only one that can see them is supposed to be Denji, so it didn't censor anything. Seems the joke was far to adult for anyone that didn't get that.

>>215536937>>215536955which is a fucking retarded rerun because isn't the "manosphere" a relic term from like fucking 2014
>>215535345Why is she making quirky faces after she tried to kill a guy and almost got stabbed herself? Who is this for?
>>215533512>Why is anime still so misogynistic and sexualized in the current year?Because art thrives in controversy.
>>215537377That term only really picked up in use after 2016, as a way for the left to demonize podcasters and youtubers that didn't parrot leftist propaganda. Even nowadays where there are a lot of grifters in the "manosphere" it's still not really a coherent entity outside the imaginations of Democrat pundits. It's a bunch of independent youtubers and podcasters who each try to eke out a living from their audiences, and most of their content isn't even political. In fact, most of the "manosphere" guys don't have political content at all, as a general rule.
>>215533512Because it sells and profits maybe westoid comics can learn a thing or million
>>215537001Women are into the freakiest anime shit, the entire eroguro genre is sustained by them both as artists and consumers.
>Anime is tranny!!>Anime is misogyny!!Haters are always projecting onto their targets what they hate or fear.
>>215537295It doesn't work in a movie where they can clearly see each other at all times, even underwater on what has to be a full moon. It's absurdly puritan for a Wapanese cartoon that has an R rating slapped on it.
>>215534035Look at the fetishes that Disney is promoting, burgers are a race of perverts
>>215537433No one "demonizes" you, they just call you an asshole, asshole.
>>215537495I'm not a podcaster or a youtuber. And yes, they do demonize them. They were blamed for the loss of the election in 2024, and are treated as architects of fascism by most of the left.
>>215533512I will now watch your anime.
>>215534290The webm that saved /tv/
>>215537480Theatrical releases tend to cut down, which is a shame. OVAs and ONAs is where the freakiest stuff is at.
>>215537471>HatersIt's really more that they're just American chauvinists coping about the decline of their country by lashing out at the rise of another using different lenses.
>>215533875>NOOOOOOO! DON'T TELL ME TO TIDY UP MY SHIT!lmao
>>215533512Why do you read movie reviews written by insufferable faggots?
>>215537528>architectsNone of them are intelligent enough to be architects of anything. But an amazing number of them seem to be fans of fascism-lite. They are assholes who defend policies they would be horrified to have applied back at them, and you are an asshole for defending them. (And yes a lot of online Leftists are also assholes).
>>215533875Centipedes?
>>215534243The Japanese don't think what you think is gay is gay.
Still not gonna watch it.

>>215537872The Japanese aren't a bunch of sheltered Eloi unfamiliar with faggotry, they've been heavily exposed and influenced by Western culture longer than you've been alive.It would be more accurate to say that they aren't offended by The Gay the same way he is.
>>215537943>>215537928sorry, xisters, but it's a movie showing in american theaters right now.
>>215537943it hasn't been good since generals stopped being instabans
>>215537961Western culture actually made them less faggy.
>>215537961Yes, but what you probably think is gay (ie: pretty boys). Isn't what they think is gay.
>>215537969>>215537974Go back trannies
>>215535687homo relations is the least of japans worries when every Japanese woman is going to have a swollen belly full of Punjabi children by 2035
>>215533512Almost like the movie was made from comic books in Seinen (Young Men) genre or something.
>>215538001Where this retarded notion that Japan is getting flooded by pajeets even comes from? Every big Western country has more of them than Japan.
>>215538000"manosphere", actually.
>>215538040>Where this retarded notion that Japan is getting flooded by pajeets even comes from?It'd been a big and rapidly escalating issue since Kishida and is a big reason their new PM came to power.>Every big Western country has more of them than Japan.The concern is that Japan could closely follow the UK and Canada in that regard. Unlike the West the Japs aren't as cucked regarding nationalism (though they are on plenty of other stuff).
>>215537870>they are assholes who defend policies they would be horrified to have applied back at themi assume you mean actualy border control?paco and fernandez can go to hell
>You can't portray teenage romance from a boy's perspective!I've been feeling lately that the United States is a soft dystopia.
>>215533814For WHAT? What even is a "Manosphere"? Sounds like shit you made up.
>>215535095It got memory-holed because Anime went even more mainstream than it was at that point, so leftshits had to back-track.
>>215534385This leftists hate anime
>>215533959That’s why the critics panties are in a wad, can’t show women as manipulative pieces of shit, they’re not known to do that & it’s harmful to depict a false stereotype.
>>215533814The Circle of Fellas
>>215533512The Grauniad using the word manosphere lmao. Japan panders to men, it’s shocking for (male) feminists.
>>215533814I don't know because I don't know what the fuck people are even talking about when they say that.is there a "womanosphere"? if we live in a Patriarchy(tm) isn't everything except for starbucks and curves gym the "manosphere"?
>>215537870>But an amazing number of them seem to be fans of fascism-lite.That means nothing coming from histrionic & hypocritical faggots like you. You think basic Border Control is "fascism" (when America does it, at least).>None of them are intelligent enough to be architects of anythingWell then they have more in common with Women than you're giving them credit for, kek.
>>215534385the "tranime" narrative comes from weird, terminally online nick fuentes types
>>215533512Look at the sales of western comics vs manga and maybe you'll understand.
>>215538309fuentes became active around 2019
I watched this movie yesterday, and during the lingerie scene, a family of five got up and left the theater. They probably had no idea what they were getting into when they bought those tickets.
>>215533959That's the pointhe's easily manipulated and unintelligent Makima treats him like the dog that he is
How many anime do you think are made per year?How many of those are aimed at men and how many are aimed at women?It's a pointless argument to say that anime is gay or misogynistic.It's a form of media and can be anything.
>>215538343fucking hate worthless lazy parents like this, all it takes is less than a minute to look up the fucking film you intend to drag your whole family to, it's not like it's some obscure information to getthere's been cartoons that weren't fit for kids for multiple decades now
>>215538351Around 200. They are aimed at manchildren, but sadly younger generations don't grow up anymore. >can be anything Yeah, like 95% of it is about teenagers in school with or without super powers. Such a diverse medium.
>>215538351It's always retarded when they try to act like Anime and Manga are only for men and perverts.The best thing about Anime and Manga is that they have a large market thats specialized for different audiences Even some Anime made for women and girls can still be pretty good.
>>215538416>with or without super powersIronically, you've already admitted that anime is more diverse than American cartoons.
>>215538350>unintelligentdumb stupiddensedaftslowretarded
>>215538421Yeah, different audiences, except for actual adults.
>>215538412yeah, it's bizarre that parents in 2025 are still surprised that an animated movie can be intended for teens and up
>>215533814Homosexuals or "faggots" specifically Men spending time together is one of the Gayest things I've ever heardYou spend time with your wife and kids, know your priorities

>>215533814Joe Rogan Interview guest
>>215534243In Japan, gay representation is mostly fan service for straight men and fujoshi, while in the West it's for political purposes and psyop.They seem similar but are completely different.It's important to note that Japan is one of the few developed countries that produces a lot of "tranime" yet still doesn't allow same-sex marriage.They do it because they know it's fiction.
>>215538678This is not even true anymore. It's clearly not just fanservice, at least not in yuri manga. >doesn't allow same-sex marriage.That's true for all Asian countries except I think Taiwan.
>>215534385based and true
>>215533512The irony is that liberals have a real lack of media literacy when it comes to anime and Japanese media.Denji is a poor boy who is constantly sexually exploited and used, and Makima takes advantage of that.Denji situation is the polar opposite of the manosphere.It's a story of an ignorant boy being oppressed and used.Same thing with Attack on Titan. Fascist propaganda? Did they see the same thing?
>>215538309>weird, terminally online nick fuentes typesQuite the opposite, it comes from Facebook Boomers that came here.Nick is actually neutral on anime and is well-known for being a massive EVA fan (he loves Kaworu btw).
>>215538448>except for actual adultsWatch literally anything anime before the 00s and you'll see the vast majority of it is not for children.
>>215539054funny you should say that because most zoomers seem to be allergic to anything made before they were born and proudly refuse to watch any boomer anime like cowboy bebop and berserk and shitmillenials had the born in le wrong generation meme, zoomers think that everything that isn't new is shit and lame kek
>>215538416>younger generations don't grow up anymoreYou're literally a Millennial
>>215539145>allergic to anything made before they were born and proudly refuse to watch any boomer anime like cowboy bebop and berserk and shit>>zoomers think that everything that isn't new is shit and lame kekEbonics aside, it's incredibly clear to me that you do not know any non-Mexican Zoomers.

>>215539250>whiteknighting for spic fuentes a couple of posts I was calling him a faggot for simping for Kaworu retard>mindless zoomoid droneIt's an objective fact that Zoomers do not like new things apart from anime and certain indie movies. Why else do you think the BO of franchise crap has been singlehandedly been shouldered by Millennials since 2020?

>>215538953>media literacyThis is thought cancer that is making everyone who ascribes to it dumber
>>215539379>>media literacy>This is thought cancerWhen wielded as a rhetorical weapon it is, but I think it literal sense of the term makes sense when you have some retard argue that OBAA is a parody of the left or that Chainsaw Man is fashcore.
>>215538678>gay representation is mostly fan service for straight men????
>>215538350>kills her and eats her then so she is dead for goodA tale as old as time, you can only manipulate men as long as they are willing to tolerate your shit.

>>215533994>like kojimaThe chainsaw man author is like an entry level movie fan that's only watched whatever's in the top 100 of imdb
>>215539401Not everything needs to be viewed through a Marxist propaganda lense. Im fact, doing so makes you dumber and more brainwashed. That's the reason every university and public school is forcing it on their students now. The education system doesn't want you to have critical thinking skills, or be too intelligent.
>>215533512because you're on the wrong board
>>215539462He's a film student who worships Tarantino and European arthouse slop actually
>>215539484>worships tarantino
>>215534290Marie doesn't just hug him. She puts her whole body into him. She stands on her tippy toes to receive him. His wife just stands there and expects affection with an arm out.
>>215539471>viewed through a Marxist propaganda lenseWho says it has to be a Marxist lens?>The education system doesn't want you to have critical thinking skillsObviously yes, but saying a movie or tv show has a certain political/cultural/philosophical bent and explaining why you think it is so is very much critical thinking.It's just another formerly useful phrase that's sadly been reduced to a meaningless buzzword by terminally online leftists.
>>215539462His favorite movies are Kayako vs Sadako, Coraline, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Evil Dead II, Pulp Fiction, Reservoir Dogs and Godzilla Minus One according to interviews he gives.
>>215539533It's cultural Marxist deconstructionism at its very core, designed to turn your brain off and turn you in to a walking propaganda mouthpiece for the establishment.
>>215539538>Kayako vs Sadako, Coraline, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Evil Dead II, Pulp Fiction, Reservoir Dogs and Godzilla Minus OneOh, sweet Jesus, let me kill this nigger
>>215539462isn't he barely in his 30s? late 20s? that sounds normal-ish, especially for a jap who probably watches everything on a second monitor when working on this.
>>215539558>designed to turn your brain off and turn you in to a walking propaganda mouthpieceSo your solution is to simply not analyze anything? I don't understand what you're trying to say.
>>215539538Yeah that's not a cinephile that's an adrenaline junkie with a fondness for filmKind of an embarrassing lineup besides Coraline
>>215533959Yeah he sucks and the author does this with all of his works. Fire Punch is a tremendous waste of time. It's just a Japanese man writing a story where he wins his blonde European waifu. TONS of manga and anime stories are essentially this. A Japanese man friending heavily for European women to the point that he draws Asian women and goes as far as to dye their hair blonde or ginger or what have you. When you start to see it as drawn fanfiction where it's a guy writing about him having cool friends and leading them to be better people by stopping "evil" a lot of stories lose their draw.
>>215539561>>215539559He also likes Heriditary, Sharknado, Fight Club and tons of Pixar and MCU capeshit slop.>>215539578The fact you aren't even able to consider an alternative to the media literacy programming you've been brainwashed with is proof of how toxic and effective it is.
>>215538953The real "media literacy" is that you can't apply the Western liberal/democracy dichotomy to Japan. They're neither blue hair pronoun kids or based and redpilled Israel fellaters.
>>215539613calm down
>>215539618>liberal/democracyFuck I mean liberal/conservative
>>215539561>japOk I'll give him the benefit of the doubt since those retards only consume hentai and cartoons. Anything other than that is a step up
>>215539603>When you start to see it as drawn fanfiction where it's a guy writing about him having cool friends and leading them to be better people by stopping "evil" a lot of stories lose their draw.That doesn't describe Chainsaw man at all. Denji is the biggest loser in shonen and all his friends die or betray him or are manipulating him and he's too stupid to realize it.
>>215539578Don't project your western Marxist values on to other culture's media, it leads to you fundamentally misunderstanding it at a base level, like the OP guardian woke tard reviewer did>>215533512
>>215539611>media literacy programmingI don't know what the fuck you mean by "media literacy programming", I define "media literacy" as in the literal sense of being literate about interpreting the intention of media using different political and cultural lenses (which was the traditional definition until recently). You're somebody who had never even heard of the term before leftists started lobbing it around xitter as a limp-wristed rhetorical bludgeon against cultural appropriation (which failed hilariously). What they call "media literacy" is actually Marxist cultural analysis or critical theory.

>>215533994I gave up on it a bit after the Gundemon arc ended. It was obvious the writer was running out of material and jerking himself off trolling the audience
>>215539663It was a cultural Marxist term from the very beginning that originated from Derrida and the Frankfurt school, you big dummy.
>>215539680Fujimoto clearly wants to stop drawing it but it's making too much money for him to stop so his editors don't allow it.
>>215539675You type like one and are dumb like one though.
>>215539682>It was a cultural Marxist term from the very beginning that originated from Derrida and the Frankfurt schoolNo it didn't, the concept was coined by this guy, who as far as I can tell was just an autist fixated on researching the nature of media and was not particularly ideological or at least Frankfurt School influenced as far as I can tellhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marshall_McLuhan
I tried to watch chainsaw man but boy is so intellectually raunchy
>>215539719>You type like oneIf I "typed like one" I wouldn't be calling people niggers on 4chan
This is just posting ragebait, right? I'm sure there are thousands of reviews for this film that say nothing about manosphere incel nonsense or calling it heckin problematic.That said, I can only hope anime continues having a wide variety of unique stories to tell and doesn't self-censor their content out of whiny social media tards claiming that they're out of touch and whatever other sort of implications to suggest that in an era where they need wider markets to make anime and especially games financially viable, 'nobody will buy it unless you tone it down'.
>>215535355You should have agreed with the twinks and tell them a nice male ass is a lot better, faggot-kun.
>>215539757>This is just posting ragebait, right?It's realhttps://www.theguardian.com/film/2025/oct/27/chainsaw-man-the-movie-reze-arc-review-tatsuki-fujimoto-manga
I'm really tired of you retards pretending that anime is traditional and based or whatnot.Just because it doesn't have niggers, doesn't really make it less of a brainrotting slop. Muttmericans are so focused on themselves that they can't really grasp the idea of culture-specific types of decadence.Anime was always full of homoeroticism, gender-bender cliches, girl-power characters. Just because they don't present it in the same way as USAnia does, doesn't mean it's not a deviancy.And this inane bullshit about "male gaze" is also pure contrarianism. Sexploitation is slop on the same level as goreporn. Serves no purpose other than cheap thrills. And no, fanservice doesn't develop a "healthy sexuality" or whatever nonsense, it only breeds more coomers. There is a reason why Abe's demographics campaign heavily criticised anime industry.But why do I even bother, you retards watch action cartoons for teens in your thirties.
>>215539613who me?
>>215539538>Coraline and Evil Dead 2he's alright
>>215538343>>215538412>>215538451The film has an 16+ age restriction, do cinemas not employ restrictions where you live?
>>215539777I know its real, but its a bit like someone going to ResetEra / Polygon or finding an obnoxious tranny-flagged stereotype on Xitter and posting their review of a game where they docked some amount of points because the protagonist was a straight male or something. Its like claiming>The world is covered in shit! Feces is everywhere! We have to fix this now! only to find out that the person making the claim was basing it exclusively on a dirty gas station toilet. Well yeah, if you're going to look in a plugged toilet you're going to see some shit.
>>215539401>>215539471you dweebs type like you both want to be beaten up
>>215539757>anime continues having a wide variety of unique storiesIt never had. One of the most cliched mediums in existence.>doesn't self-censorIt does so from the very begining. One of the reasons why I switched to manga. Anike is sterile in their own way, because socio-political censorship in Japan is way more heavy-handed than in USA, even.
>>215533512>man is it male oriented, though First off, I know a lot of girls who love this shit. Second, so what? Your target audience can’t be men? >denji’s frilly pink fantasies He’s a horny teenage boy. He thinks fucking will solve all his problems and it’s one of his major motivations. Of course he’s going to fantasize about cute girls he knows. And Reze exploits his lonely horniness to get close to him. No shit she acts sexy. >courting those who feel wronged by the opposite sex What’s the correlation between being attracted to women and feeling wronged by them? >I just cut off a beautiful woman’s leg Now I don’t know if this is bait or just a retard. He explicitly feels bad about it. He’s not saying “wow this is awesome, I cut off her leg!” He’s lamenting it. In the same way he gets angry at katana guy for killing a girl in the first season. And even after everything she does to him, he still wants to give Reze a chance. Where’s the misogyny in that?
>>215539788>anime is traditional and based or whatnotNobody here is saying that>they can't really grasp the idea of culture-specific types of decadenceIt's because we have no culture of our own so we latch onto crude, commercialized images or impressions of other cultures instead. That's why you have a country consisting of Christian Zionists, Koreaboos, Weebs, Tankies, Europhiles, Nazis, and all sorts of other larpers; because America as a culture is dead and has been for decades.>Anime was always full of homoeroticism, gender-bender cliches, girl-power characters.Yeah so is technically all fiction when you paint in culture war strokes that broad faggot, you're the one using a 21st century American lens to see everything >Sexploitation is slop on the same level as gorepornThe reason people like gore and eroticism is because violence and sexuality were commonplace before we were tamed by modernity. We're genetically programmed to kill and fuck and did so until we all collectively decided not to anymore after 1945.
>>215539757Anime has already adopted the vast majority of woke ideology, without even being pushed into it. It's all extremely emasculating or childish, with basically no masculine protagonists, but a lot of role reversal, where the female character is the dominant one, and the man's a total fucking pussy.On top of that, half the male character literally dress like trannies.It's not what it was 20+ years ago.
>>215539533>terminally onlinelmao and how many hours a day are you here?
>>215539906Everybody under the age of 30 is terminally online, I was merely talking about a certain tribe of people that are terminally online and spend a lot of time in certain spaces and use certain language unique to said tribe
>>215539757It's the guardian, one of the highest-rated ''quality newsbrands''. It says a lot about the current state of the western media.Now I can see why western animations have been so ''safe''.
>>215539801It's rated R in the US which means a kid can watch it if they're with an adult
>>215533994Can't really beat off to that. 4chan enhance damn didn't work
>>215539801>16+ age restrictionNot sure where you are, but in the U.S R rated movies are fine for kids if they're accompanied by a parent/guardian.Also, as somebody that works at a kinoplex in the U.S, I can safely say that Mexicans make up the vast majority of people that bring their little kids to see R rated movies, especially particularly violent ones. I have no idea why, but that's the correlation I've noticed.
>>215539801In any part of the US that I've been to, with the exception of anything above NC-17 not playing in 'normal' cinemas and most having some sort of >Kids obviously under 17 won't be admitted to a R rated feature without someone over 18/21 policy, its not really strictly enforced in the first place and what's more is that with what seems to be a parent or guardian, you can take a kid to just about any conventional (ie non-porn) film. As far as a family getting up and leaving, I'm guessing they figured that it was probably rated that way for violence. Also, I've not seen the film (or the anime series itself yet) but i'm guessing that any family walking out due to some mild sexuality were either religious fundamentalists and/or the parents did zero research at all. These days the price of a cinema ticket for 5 people is a lot to waste, atop the principle of the thing.
>>215539966>religious fundamentalistsWhat are you talking about, people in the U.S are infamously puritanical about sex in media while being completely fine with vulgarity and graphic violence
>>215539937Wait so the coveted R rating I always hear waffed about as the definitive rating for adult media still allows literal children to go in? No wonder I always hear that american theaters are dogshit. Imagine trying to watch a serious crime thriller or a war drama with a bunch of elementary schoolers.
>>215540018>definitive rating for adult mediaIt's actually unrated in the U.S, been that way since about the 00s
>>215539862Again, your irrelevant incessant babble that has almost no relevance to my post>Nobody here is saying thatRe-read the thread, retard. People here are trying to tie anime to this anti-wokeism or whatever you nigger-worshipers think is contrarian nowadays.>It's because we have no culture of our ownI agree, my point stands, thank you.>when you paint in culture war strokes that broadNo, it's your little imbecilic ass that tries to slide it with generalisations. Even back in the day mainstream anime did depict nonconforming sexuality here and there. There is a reason why anime community attracted weirods and was mocked for that since its advent in the West.And even if we follow your retarded logic and assume that anime was as deviant as any other medium, then it's still not based, or redpilled, or whatever edgy term you have for it now.>The reason people like gore and eroticism is because violence and sexuality were commonplaceStill is. And doesn't really change the fact that gratuitous violence and sexploitation are slop.Reported for namifagging. Now please fuck off, you shat up this thread enough.
>>215533814The Area Of XY.
>>215538343Kek, surprised they didnt walk out during the pool scene, they also missed out on the blood and gore from the final act>>215539801It's PG 15 in my country which means even 6 year old children can watch it no questions asked, only R rated equivalent movies ask for ID like John Wick 3 and Logan, here all Deadpool movies Mad Max Fury Road and Joker and all other 3 John Wick movies were PG 15 so even kids could watch those
>>215540039I meant more like in the colloquial sense. Like if there is an upcoming film and it is confirmed to be R rated people say things like "it does not have to pull any punches" or if a film reviewer talks about a film and notes the extreme gore or other adult content, they often say it is "hard R". So as a non american it builds this image that getting an R rating actually means something.
>>215533512The manga's author is obviously into femdom, how the fuck is it misogynistic?
>>215540135In my country 16+ movies require you to be atleast 14 if you have someone who fills that requirement in your part. 18+ is however a hard limit and given to most movies that are very violent. If a cinema allows an underage person to see that movie, it is legally considered to be as heinous as selling tobacco or alcohol to a child.
>>215534573I own that show on dvd, vhs, and laserdisc.
>>215533959>supposedly grows as a character by the end of part 1>instantly goes back to being a piece of shit in part 2
>>215540209Do they ask for ID though?
Fujimoto can't write, every new chapter is basically lolsorandumb crap without substance that gets abandoned instantly
>>215540088>People here are trying to tie anime to this anti-wokeismThe establishment itself is declaring it's an "incel chud" movie, the other mutts plugged into the culture war on here are simply reappropriating it as such given it's now seen as kosher in their eyes.>anime did depict nonconforming sexuality here and thereWhat and fucking 80s movies and shows from the West didn't? The West was making literal tranny propaganda like Bound and Boys Don't Cry by the 90s.If you were truly "based and trad" you wouldn't be on here nor would you use the internet or watch /tv/, "electric Jew" and such.>attracted weirods and was mocked for that since its advent in the WestIt was mocked because it was seen as niche and foreign because it was (not helped by how gay and lame millennials were about it in the 00s given anime itself also got really shitty at that time). It's no different than how French New Wave or Italian neorealist cinema were written off as pretentious Euro garbage for faggots for decades by the American public.>Still is.It isn't in developed countries with the exception of Russia or if you're Black. There's not Huns or Mongols raiding your village nor a draft in place where there's a colonial conflict to put down or a World War that decides the trajectory of humanity to fight.>gratuitous violence and sexploitation are slopGoing by this logic all the major religious texts and all great epics in human history are slop.>Reported for namifaggingYou can't report someone for that dumbass, reported for false reporting.
>>215535687>nowThey've had gay stories for fujo for ages. There is a huge fan comic market for it.
>>215537961I remember my gay friend who did atudy abroad there said his host mother told him that Japan didn't have gay men like America does. He didn't correct her, but at the clubs in Shinjuku and elsewhere he found out how wrong she was.
>>215540286But they still make stuff for straight men which Hollywood doesnt
>>215539632>>215539618Maybe you were thinking of Japan's conservative party, The Liberal Democratic Party.They mean liberal in the classic economic sense, as they are lax toward coporations and pro-capitalism.

>>215533786I want to believe it's AI but femoid pseuds line up to write for rags like The Guardian.
>>215539852>Cliche Well, as much as anything else. I don't think its necessarily any more cliche than TV or films elsewhere. >self censorshipWhich sociopolitical censorship are you referring to? I mean mass media in every society conforms to their norms to some degree, but with Japan its relatively recent that the different phenomena where censorship specifically to please foreign consumers (supposedly) is a factor. Adaptations between manga and anime, like any sort of literary to film adaptation often mean changes of some sort, but normally its not censorship as much as it is fitting something into a network/timeslot (ie Interspecies Reviewers of High School of the Dead both having several versions with different amounts of nudity/violence depending on if it was on a standard broadcast/cable channel earlier in the day, a 'premium channel' like AT-X later at night, or BluRay/streaming etc), the project wants more episodes (ie filler arcs being added) while the manga is being continued, or the like. >>215539866>Woke While I'm open to there being some recent changes, I think a lot of tourists are seeing everything with newfag woke goggles. For instance claiming that magical girl series were woke or whatever because girlbossing or female focus or something despite Sailor Moon being nothing of the sort. Likewise, "men dressing like trannies" depending on what you mean goes back years and has their own tropes like otokonoko and all kinds of other stuff, not to mention that the bishounene/biseinen phenomenon had 'pretty' male characters that were seen as masculine and were desired by females both in the story and viewers; pic related was from a battle shonen in the 90s! >>215539925>The guardianI was under the impression (as a murrican) that Guardian (UK) was a center-left paper but like a lot of other UK papers have leaned more heavily into clickbait for the digital era especially for contributors/editorials and culture content
>>215538343>oohhh yes, anime. And the media says this movie is very popular right now. It must be from Studio Ghibli or something similar.
>>215540319Damn right they do!
>>215540262For 18+ yes. For age rating below that I think they usually eyeball it, as only the 18+ thing is an actual crime.

>>215538343I bet the oldest son wanted to see it and mom or dad thought “sure, we’ll take the whole family!” It was the wrong call, but You really think 15 seconds of anime tiddies is gonna scar the kids for life?

i do use the guardian as my main news source because I'm a leftist but let me tell you anyn article written by a woman on there should be ignored instantly
>>215540712Because they kept asking her, so she had to keep repeating herself. She actually got disgusted with the idea of people looking at it as anything other than a joke.It's like those old cartoons when Bugs Bunny dresses up as a girl to fool people in a gag. It's meant as a joke. But some mentally unwell people take it seriously.Same idea with Ranma.
>>215533512why are people shocked that there’s some fan service in Chainsaw Man? one of Denji’s main character traits is that he’s a massive pervert. even still for people who love to gloat about “media literacy” they should know that Denji being a impulsive pervert is played as a bad thing.
>>215541848>more diverse stories than anything anyone else does in the movie industry RIGHT NOWfixedAnime/manga are just worse than what it used to be, and more bland, stereotyped and samey due to mainstreamization.But yeah, it goes without saying that the western output gets mogged in its current state
>>215542069and even if it wasn't played as a bad thing it would still be ok.
>>215542024>some mentally unwell people take it seriously
>>215542128exactly, besides on a surface level yes Denji is a coomer. But deep down, as shown before the Reze arc and during I think he wants an actual connection as as opposed to just sex.
