I only hyped this
Western-made anime is so ugly
>>732345539Can we expect them in Smash Bros?
>>732345628Fucking moron
unfortunately it looks AI generated
western piece of shitno, you will never be japanesefuck off
>>732345937see >>732345745
>co op
>>732345539>it takes 2, but animemeh, whatever i dont have anyone to play these games with
>>732345628>>732345937Weebs miscategorizing generic anime slop as western is like jeets trying to poison the well my mistaking legitimate art for AI. It’s either duplicitous behavior, or just massive retardation
>>732345971you will never be japaneseand your game will flop
>>732346082my thoughts exactly.I really want to play it takes two with my brother, but he never wants to play with me, in lieu of wasting his time with gachas all day
>>732345539>making a co-op game that appeals to autistics with no friendswhat were they thinking?
>>732345745>>732345971>>732346126Nah I checked. They're no more Japanese than African immigrants are Swedish. They're trying to fool bums like you because they know "anime game made by Japanese" sells better than "anime game made by British weeaboos.">office in Manchester, England https://x.com/Shapefarm/status/1663526600774758400>LinkedIn is 90% whites https://www.linkedin.com/search/results/people/?currentCompany=%5B1770423%5D&sid=%40sJ>company website and socials all in EnglishAnd the cherry on top, This is one of only 2 (two) Japanese phrases on their Twitter:>ムーブメントに参加するWhoever manages it doesn't know Japanese. This is a 1-to-1 MTL of "join the movement", but saying it like this in Japanese makes no sense. If they donated once in the past they could say 参加した, if they're actively donating they could say 参加している, if they're saying this as an appeal (ie "YOU should join the movement") they could say 参加しよう or 参加しましょう. But "ムーブメントに参加する" by itself is a statement addressed at nobody that implies they haven't even "joined the movement" yet themselves. I only ever see wording like that in textbooks or options menus.
>forced soul
>>732345539"Safe" 80's anime style is uncanny and you could tell it's made by westerns80's anime was all about macho and tittles, even if it wasn't about macho and tittles it had obligatory macho and tiddies somewhereYou can't take that identity away if you're going to cash-in on that aesthetics
>>732346628based poster showing the true face of the white devil
>>732345745Foreign owned studio based in Japan is not Japanese retard
this was the only good game shown in the showcase that we didn't already know everything about and we already saw it last time, disappointed they couldn't lock in an actual release and just said "SUMMER"
>>732345539trooncoded and completely missing the point of the aesthetic they're emulating, like all those shitty french "anime" games except retro inspired
>>732346716This. Shit fucking reeks of sanitized westoid origin.
>>732346827>whiteSAAAAAAAAARS
>>732345539this new deadlock update is wild
>>732345539The stylized classic anime designed honestly looks like something a fat Tumblr Latina with glasses and a septum ring would have came up with.
the dev might be crying while reading this threadlmao
>>732345745>>732345971>>732346126Why do you lie?
>>732347003When the game was first showed off at TGA I recall some anons doing some digging and yea it’s literally done by tumblrfags
>>732347083Pretty much. They have lgbt flags hanging in their Tokyo office.https://www.instagram.com/p/CtXI7OZvHYc/
the fuck is this bluethebone looking trash
>>732347393Haha, thanks man, what a joke.
>>732347393fucking lmaowho would have known that tranny anime AI slop was made by white satanic brainwashed peoplewouldn't surprise me if he's actually jewish desu
Why do anons get mad about everything these days?It seemed like a fun co-op game to me that I'll play with my little sister.
this looks like kinosnoys just upset that they still have no games lol
>>732347471don't shit talk my trad wife like that you fool
>>732345539surely they could've done something else than Borderlands graphics
>I really like this anime stuff from japan>But you know what would make it way betterrerer?>Completely changing it to be more like the shit I already have and claim to like it more than!I'm so tired of this shit. I don't want localized I want translated. I like japanese stuff because its japanese, it's got that foreign oddness to it. If i wanted fucking tranny marvel wedonisms i'd stop avoiding bluesky like its monkeypox incarnate.Also it's super 'funny' that japans the only shit this happens to.If you tried to "localize" some fucking african oogabooga bushpeople shit, the same people screaming at you how this shits needed would melt down at you appropriating some nigbo culture that didnt exist 30 years ago because thye have no concept of time.
>>732347752Nigger are you for real?
tranny on tranny violence the threadyou’re all trannies obsessed with tranime slop
>>732346716>pretending that any jap studio would have made this macho and full of tittiesDid you play no jap games at all in the last 20 years nigga? Jap games are twink central.
>>732345971>>732346126Start apologizing.
>>732345539I'm not buying westoid goyslop larping as japanese.https://arch.b4k.dev/v/thread/732345539/#732346628
>>732345628thisthey thinks weebs are retarded, but they are not retarded enough to fall for this western goyslop
>>732346628I knew since I first saw it in December there was something off about this game, thank you for doing the research anon.
>>732345539Holy kino. >Vintage sci-fi anime puzzle game with space problems Actually will get this.
>>732347949>proud to introduce our Shapefarmers IDENTIFYING as womenlmaoit's so tiresome
>>732348047>>732346628
>>732345539trooncore pseudo-soulgetting AI Miyazaki gens vibes from this game
>>732345539Looks like a It Takes Two clone with 80s sci fi anime aesthetics. I'll play, but none of my friends are into this genre :(
>>732347949>We are very proud to introduce some of our Shapefarmers identifying as women>identifying as women
>>732345539Doesn't seem to offer anything different than Hazelight's games and that shows with how much they keep pushing the "Retro anime" gimmick and not really any novel gameplay.
>>732347083>all the tumblerinas draw stylized classic anime instead of cal-arts vomit now Wow, how horrible. But you know I think I'll live in this brave new world.
>>732348121>with what tumblr thinks are 80s sci fi anime aestheticsyeah it's really not appealing. Extremely corporate and not genuine.
>>732348121I mean, I would in fact take It Takes Two with a not shitty aesthetic/settings, yes.
>>732346628>>732347949Literally from the first reveal I had the weird feeling of my instincts warning me this reeked of westoid sloppa and was made by westoids.Somehow I ended up being completely right to the point I wonder if this is some weird kind of superpower.
>>732345539>it's made by western shitlib troonsDoesn't change my opinion that it looks pretty cool. I may want all of these people on sex offender lists but the game looks stylish and fun.
>>732348370i miss these threads
Its actually amazing how you can see the devoit of soul in this, and you can immediately tell who is behind it.
>>732345539>western tranime styleI shan't'd've boughtened
>>732348392same bro, holy shit
>>732348370It Takes Two has a better aesthetic than Orbitals. There's no thought put into Orbitals design other than imitation.
>>732345539Didn't know homestuck got an anime, much less a game.
>>732348392Pattern recognition, basically. It’s instilled in humans but I had people call me schizo or obsessed when I bring this up.
>>732348515Don't you think you're trying just a little too hard?
>>732348457THIS
>>732345539It's insane how much I love how this looks. I don't care if you all hate it I want like 20 games that have this games visuals (just make it single player so I don't have to play with anyone else)
>>732346716It is really bizarre. These fags by all means shouldn't like it because of what you mentioned. Japan was looking at potentially becoming the world superpower and had no reason to feel ashamed of anything. But they still latch on to it. I think it is because of their hatred of otaku works like loli, moe, fanservice, etc. Back then those things were harder to notice as the genre hadn't matured fully and the characters were slightly less cute. I think the less cute thing especially attracts these types, they hate the otaku pandering that made anime break out popular on the Internet to begin with. But it gets stranger, as these fags can't make anything without it being their own variety of cutesy. So they'll take something "old school" and mangle it into their Tumblr ideal of "cute". Which makes it look like an awful amalgamation and the fact that they also always apply retro effects just makes it look antiquated.tldr: Moe Derangement Syndrome works in mysterious ways
>>732346628>>732347949It's like if Ken-sama made his own game company.
>>732348620Thank you for stopping by /v/, Sonam. How was it like working on the game?
>>732348104but do you watch modern anime and play gachashit?
>>732346628Into the ごみ it go!!
>>732345539This will be the second game my gf playsFirst one being It takes twoThat shit was tough to carry
>>732345539Fuck this couples only shit.
>>732348392It's just your brain picking up on the little thingsThe blue guy with horns for example, doesn't really look like something a Japanese person would draw, I can't really explain it, but you can tell
>>732348702LMAOThis whole company has to be a money laundering schemeNo way they gain money by making these shit games
>>732348930You can also play with a friend or family member
>>732348574No, I just don't find insipid design moving. At the very least It Takes Two's design is representative of it's themes and narrative. The storybook and arts & crafts design help communicate a story centered around family and specifically one pertaining a child, and the visual design then informs the level and gameplay design. Orbitals is just making something look retro and that's it. Just meaningless appropriation of aesthetics.
>>732345539>Published by Kepler Interactive, same ones that published Expedition 33>decided to make this Switch 2 exclusiveWhy? I don't think Nintendo funded this at all. I'm hoping this gets ported to other platforms.
>>732349435i hope so too, you can have this pile of westoid goyimslop, i don't even want to see it on the switch 2 exclusives wiki page
>>732345539>80s anime aestheticK I N O
>>732348940The design is a lot like something you'd see on Tumblr.
>>732345539>enter video game thread>NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER >TROON TROON TROONGame looks alright
>>732345628this looks more like anime than anime does these days,
>>732348940If you say sohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FGBhQbmPwH8
I have gaijin fatigue
>>732349993gave me Saint Seiya vibes
>>732346628Based knowerthough if you honestly looked at any of the promo material for this game and couldn't tell it was made by westerners you're probably braindead.
>>732350423to be fair a lot of people don't have their kike-spotting radar all that sharpenedeven for me i got suspicious on the first reveal but the dogshit MTL japanese for the promos confirmed it to me, i didn't spot it on the very first reveal like a lot of people did
>>732345539Strange how not a single game journalist cares about "cultural appropriation" when Japanese aesthetic is being not only used by others, but those others hide that they are not Japanese.
>>732350423This, it was fucking blatant.There are a lot of EOPs who seemingly just can't tell, though. I've had to tell so many of them that Karryn's prison is a WEG, they don't get it at all.The worst are all the openly dishonest chink/gook games, at least this one is blatant.
>>732345539Amaterasu, kill all gaijin and my soul is yours.
>>732345539>I looooooove the lofi beats aesthetic! anime was so good back then! what animes from back then did I watch? YOU DONT NEED TO WATCH SOMETHING TO BE A FAN OF IT
>>732347949>white girl>western asian women(the worst kind of asian)>jeeta>"""Identifying as women"""LMAO
>>732347949>2 out of 4 "Japanese" have blatantly non-Japanese names, and the other 2 have pen names so they're probably gaijin tooComically dishonest.
>/v/ suddenly cares about cultural appropriationlmao
>>732350790The people making this would care a lot about cultural appropriation if they weren't ripping off honorary whites, so they're hypocritical racists.
>NOOOO AHHHH IT'S NOT REAL ANIME IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE MY CHEAP 2000s MOEBLOBS
>>732350396Made me think of the stuff Kojima produced in the 80s.
>>732350774Hagie is the only one that looks remotely japanesethe others are some blend of SEA mutt.
>>732346628One day the west will start making stylistic knock offs of successful chinese games as well and- Oh wait, that's Overwatch.
>>732350982Hagie looks like a dude.
>>732350876The problem isn't that it's an 80s artstyle, the problem is that westerners can't nail what they're trying to imitate. It always feels off. Especially when they keep layering on shitty grain filters to try and invoke the feeling of VHS recordings, it just looks like shit.
there's so much of this in recent yearsthere's entire """anime""" studios ran by westerners with a token office in tokyoi don't have a problem with foreigners working on jp games, they've existed since what, the 80s? but when it's clearly done to mislead consumers it feels like some kind of fraudthe art looks alright to me, it's not a western or eastern thing (though the designs clearly have western sensibilities), they just aren't succesful in emulating the style they're aiming for
>>732350790It isn't even taking inspiration from Japanese art techniques though. These people fully pretend to be Japanese and it is creepy as hell. It is like they are poorly wearing a skin of a Japanese person. All this derivative garbage features random Japanese cultural elements for no reason and feels like they are larping. Instead of making something like the Japanese it is like they feel they have to convince everyone they are Japanese. There is literally nothing to gain from this either. Even worse, a lot of these fags will make a million and one excuses for why westerner made stuff needs to be described using a foreign term. It is absurd and the world has just become too sick to see it clearly.
>>732350614It's cultural sharing. The Japanese copy stuff from the West all the time.
>>732350876not buying your westoid goyslop lol
>>732350423Only because it actually pays tribute to 80's anime, and somewhat accurately captures the aesthetic.Japanese people don't even try to do that. If they made this game, it would look like Astral Chain.
>>732350876MOMOOOO
>>732351272They're nailing it harder than Japan is right now.
>>732345539>multiplayer friendslop*yawn*
>>732348392pattern recognition
>>732351616fromsoftware (dark souls) copies western culture better than any wectoid could doOP game is made by westoid trying to do japanese anime but it fails to capture the essence, hence why its void of soul
Let's be real here, we all know what's going on. This whole "Oh it's not TRVE 80s anime but I can't tell why it isn't!" circlejerk... it's because it's a Nintendo exclusive. This thread is just full of mentally ill Sony fans who are pissing and shitting themselves over an exclusive.
can you really just make companies and put them in japan for the visaI don't see any reason why this company is located in tokyo
>>732351535>but when it's clearly done to mislead consumers it feels like some kind of fraud>feels likenot feels like, it is literal false advertisement to try bait "da weebs" into buying goyslop
>>732352080It's embarrassing to be a Japanese supremacist when you yourself are not Japanese.
>>732352082I think it's because they have never actually seen 80's anime.We're talking to kids who think "the anime style" begins with Naruto.
>>732352082I love Nintendo and believe the Switch is the only console worth having. This thing is shit though and panders to trannies. A lot of their partner shit is bullshit like this. I think it is because there are different directs organized by different branches. NoA is allergic to anything good so they instead push child corruption games.
>>732345539>The sapce eyes are mental illness flag coloredYea if you needed more than that, you're not ready.
>>732351826>Japanese people don't even try to do that. If they made this game, it would look like a good game.Is this supposed to be an insult?
>>732350774the japanese love pen names though
>>732352082anon, trying to dismiss shit as "it's just da snoys!" doesn't work when im calling out shit like hi fi rush and astro turf for trying to skinwalk as japanese games as well
>>732352182What else does he have going for him as a filthy brownoid thirdie?
>>732352334yeah okay Druckman lmao
>>732350614That's not cultural appropriation. That's just regular-ass cultural sharing and blending. Appropriation is when something has a specific meaning or significance in the source culture, another culture imitates that thing, and then the meaning is elimated from the thing.For example, Indian headdresses are worn by war chiefs and spiritual leaders. White people drew random Indians wearing them all the time as costumes to signify just being random Indians. So over time, the headdress just completely lost its significance as a symbol of office.A better one that you might find less woke or whatever is how Japanese people celebrate Christmas, but they attach zero religious significance and it's entirely about eating fried chicken and finding a date. If you're a Christian in Japan, it's a little weird having basically the whole country treat your second biggest spiritual holiday like a completely different thing devoid of religious meaning."Anime", as an art style, isn't some deep significant thing on its own. There aren't anime priests or something. You don't have to complete some cultural initiation to draw manga.
>>732351616From Software does not pretend to be British, nor does your argument work. If sone Native Americans dress like Anglos, it does not prevent the argument that an Anglo wearing a headress in cultural appropriation from being raised.
>>732352082Nah, don't be like that, I don't hate Nintendo, I just hate this kinda shit specifically. It always has>we are true japanimation fans, except for all the icky parts and missing presentationwritten all over it.
>>732346628Thank you anon-sama
>>732352368>astral crap>goodplease.
>>732352673So this is a Snoy thread after all lol
>>732352368It's an accurate assessment of the cultural differences between Japanese otaku and Western nerds.When Japanese people bring back an old franchise, they try to update it. there's no one making legitimate 80's style anime in Japan anymore. Look at any modern revival of an old anime, and it will pretty much look like modern anime.
ok but the girl on the left literally just has captain tsubasa's face pasted on
>>732352480>>732352182just say you don't wanna accept the truth and deal with itboth of you find surreal excuses like "filthy brownoid thirdie" and then go claiming this game is great for diversity, inclusion and antiracismhypocrites
>>732352495I'm talking about Loli Cunny Rub Redux and Swords and Boobs United Against the Globalists. The cool stuff the Japanese make that is actually popular but NoA wants to pretend doesn't exist.
>>732352837A game can just be a good game.I think this looks neat, because it kind of looks like Dirty Pair. Why would I not want to be served something I enjoy?
>It's not racism when we do it because we say so>It's not tokenism when we do it because we say so>It's not appropriation when we do it because we say soLeftism is centered on hypocrisy and pretending to be retarded/not understand, and projection.I'm so fuckin tired of this NPC shit. >in b4 some butthurt faggot jumps to one of their pre-programmed responses about muh conserbadibs or muh rightiez because politics is sportsball
>>732352502Anime style this game appropriates has ties to a specific and place, and thus to specific values. What this game dies, is just take surface level aesthetic, without understanding why it is such, and strips it of anything that conflicts with their pre-existing values and culture. That you do not see the siginificance of what this game takes from Japan, is not an argument game journalists would accept when their pet culture was being appropriated, as it is not your culture being disfigured.
>expecting to see gameplay debate>westoid,trannyslop,goymslop,fake anime>you will never be japanesewhat about the video game?
>>732352952it's fine if you wanna eat shitI don't stop yousome people are born with brain damage and shit taste
>>732353032Or they just liked 80s anime and wanted to make a game around that? I really don't understand all the buzz around this being made by non-Japanese people.
>>732353067You are in the files
>>732352258Retard my favorite anime production is Iczer-1. Orbitals is pure Tumblrshit through and through.>>732352952It's nothing like Dirty Pair.
>>732353232When Japanese like something, and copy just the aesthetic, without the underlying culture, the product gets censored.
>>732353067Didn't you know? This is a culture war board. Also it's only Switch 2 so normal discussions on it aren't allowed.
>wah wah wah culture war! the faggot decries>as he tries to distract with console warring faggotryits all you retards can doliterallyits the only thing you know
>>732353067it's yet another 2 player platformer akin to it takes two or split fictionit's generic friendslop you play with a girlfriend or a little sister that is not into vidya, there's not much to talk about there
>>732353469>SE>Japanese.Lol.Funny to see the shills instantly go full antijapan after the cat got out of the bag and it got revealed this is westoid goyslop trying to grift "da dumb weebs" though.
>>732345539I love Japan and Animes so I will buy 10 copies.
>>732353648
>>732346289Man, that must suck. My bro doesn't play gachashit thankfully.We co-op not only in beat 'em ups, but also Tales games and the Josef Fares titles.
>>732346628>>732347393>>732347949So tired of this industry.
Why instead of trying to copy the art style they just get a chara designer that worked in the 80s?
>>732346628This trend will only get worse, western entertainment is JUST NOW realizing anime is more popular than cape shit.Further sad, wokeness is JUST NOW hitting Japan. So prepare for an unrelenting onslaught of liberal anime slop.
Is this thread getting bumped by the same 2-3 people? The way anons are speaking here seems very samey.
>>732357625Japan has already rejected leftism, you are a bit behind on the news cycle in general
>>732357975In japan I think that them electing yet another JDP party member is generally different from them becoming more pro-gay/wanting to imitate the west as a general trend.
>>732350423There are people who think that Netflix castelvania is made by nips.Sometimes you see people saying that all anime looks the same, and they aren't exaggerating. Their brains are unable to identify the differences.
>>732351826>somewhat accurately captures the aesthetic.The character design is completely wrong and reeks of tumblr.
>>732357625>wokeness is JUST NOW hitting Japani have been hearing this for over a decade nowmeanwhile in reality japan were the only ones to call out lockley trying to pass his literal homo fanfics as historical fact when in the west even "based chud" ecelebs tried to defend him90% of the anime industry also just rallied behind anno to give the west the middle finger with only really mappa sticking to sucking kike cock with netflix, and even then mappa is so comically overworked they may not last long once they run out of JJK money>>732358091the kosher plant sanseito got BTFO by the way
>>732347691Because they're talentless rightoids that can't draw and hate that art competency is a mostly leftist leaning trait
>>732358360>90% of the anime industry also just rallied behind anno to give the west the middle finger with only really mappa sticking to sucking kike cock with netflix, and even then mappa is so comically overworked they may not last long once they run out of JJK money???
Why is everyonne seething about this being made by Westerners? Is it cultural appropriation or something?
>>732358536How fucking out of the loop are you? Even that's old news by now.
>>732358536Schizo nonsense. He's just making shit up as he types. Typical roghtoid HIV brian
>>732346131>you will never be japanesenot a real insult
>>732358604weebs aren't human
>>732358604See>>732358506The right is entirely incapable of creating art. Japanese people find this sort of thing endearing and flattering. The only ones getting and are polturds mad they cant draw a Loomis head (because art requires empathy)
>>732358746makes sense. They might have learned to draw if they weren't being psy-op'd by Epstein
>>732358506>>732358746Luckily the gaming scene is 100% dominated by allies that will pre-order this "game" full price + tip + a humble donation to the movement, amirite xisters?
>>732358604had it been advertised as western-made from the start there would likely have far less pushbackbut no, they went ahead pretending it was japanese while having just barely enough leeway to claim they legally didn't lie and it wasn't false advertisement, which made people feel like you are trying to grift them by jingling anime girl keys on their face, which is also insulting
>>732358628I thought that Gainax was sold out to some other company, not sure if Anno not liking the west has any material effect on the world>>732358663I just want to know what he is talking about. The new lady president wants to be EVEN more ingrained in the US than Japan even is now>>732358746I think the "The right is entirely incapable of creating art" is a nonsense term that largely just applies to the west because American conservatives constantly harp on you needing a "Real job" that pays money to succeed because American conservatism has a foundation of being almost entirely capitalist from the onset. The conservatives of other nations can draw elements from the past or in slavic's case bits and pieces of the USSR as well.
Can someone explain why this thread exists
>>732357975She is based and drives an awesome car. But like >>732358091 says, many artists there are still in the "racism is le bad!" phase. They are just now venturing into equity and Marxist shit.Thankfully the average Japanese citizen is still pretty based.
>>732345539art style doesnt seem genuine and feels like its tracing a trend or capitalizing on 'remember this' key dangling.
>>732359034nah, lurk it
>>732358965>I just want to know what he is talking about. The new lady president wants to be EVEN more ingrained in the US than Japan even is nowshe just decoupled the yen from the mutt dollar through debt bond fuckery while everyone was distracted with the taiwan shit anonthe fuck are you on about
>>732359093Considering that the Japanese economy is going to collapse, I can't imagine her being that popular for that much longer. I imagine she is mostly popular because Japan has been quite frankly been declining and she is saying harsh words to the very insecure japanese
>>732359093>It is certainly true that after the bursting of its bubble, from the 1990's Japan was mired in almost 20 years of deflation and the economy was sluggish. But today, I have come to tell you that Japan will once again be a country where there is money to be made, and that just as Gordon Gekko made a comeback in the financial world after 23 years of absence, so too can we now say that "Japan is back."
>>732359034It's about a video game on /v/ - Video Games. We’re discussing video games

I mean a lot of manga and anime were generally pretty "leftist" for the time period it is (Even if a lot of it isn't really "Woke" it was still anti-war and shit) while modern anime seems more like chud escapist fantasies and generic rebellion overtures. I can imagine leftoids being more into say ideon or votoms than the myriad of isekai crap you see from 'em these days.
>>732359203Japan is doing better than most of Europe in population and economy yet you never hear them kvetching about a coming collapse of Europe, strange.
>>732345539It looks cute, but isn't this just a port?
>>732352787there are a few exceptionsmahoujin guru guru for oneplus the new GITS
>>732345785It looks that way because it's literally what the AI was trained on.
>>732345539westernshit fake anime
>>732360184>>732359203That's because European leaders would show up to Epstein's island.They hate Japan because they wouldn't play ball (with Epstein's balls). When you realize the Jap-hate is purely shills, it becomes obvious every time a vaguely-japanese game is mentioned (including this obviously not japanese game)
>>732359184The current administration wants a weak dollar so Trump can say that the industrial jobs come back to the US. Same reason why he also wants interest rates super low.
>>732360151The industry basically was originally more progressive and got taken over by people just interested in the sexy girls (based) who became right leaning when the left dropped straight sexual expression. It is probably why you see some artists who did a lot of otaku stuff in the past like loli and ecchi suddenly shift into doing boring shit. They were only doing it because it was a form of "protest" at the time. I remember seeing Japanese on 2chan even sort of comment on this with bewilderment that the JCP was now the biggest enemy to them and the conservative parties were the better bet for the media they enjoy. Why the left made this sudden shift and allowed the right to become cool is mind boggling.
>>732360637Then again I don't really see much of a future for anime if all I really see from them (outside of a few artists) is a bunch of escapist power fantasy stuff. The Chinese and Koreans are much less shameful about doing that kind of stuff and they even have quite a bit of an edge that you don't really see in the more sanitized nip power fantasies desu. Maybe there is more lolicon stuff, but I don't think that is that popular in Japan in spite of everything.
>>732350614>Strange how not a single game journalist cares about "cultural appropriation" when Japanese aesthetic is being not only used by others, but those others hide that they are not Japanese.The Japanese are an extension of the Western world, and all anime is a rip-off of Walt Disney.
>>732358347you think everything is tumblr
The problem isn't cultural appropiation or Westerns doing anime. That's fine. The problem is that it's ugly as sin and the designs reek of basedboys and Tumblr whales who would cringe at anything fanservice and probably think they can "fix" anime. Pretty much confirmed by >>732347393
My favorite announcement from the direct.
>"tumblr art" in 2015 - hideous gangly abominations with red noses and vitaligo and shit>"tumblr art" now - literally just 80's animeWhatever, bro.If this is tumblr art, I'm fine with it, and I'm more down with tumblr users than I am you miserable nogs.
>>732361271Should have got Mizucat to work on it.
>>732347393>check the other images>most are gaijins>in tokyoThis is false advertisement, but it explains why the artstyle looks so off.
>>732360885They need to stop catering to Chinese and Koreans as these audiences will eventually learn to entertain themselves and stop being profitable. This is correct, Japan has enough people that they could make more than enough entertaining chiefly domestic audiences again with mainstream stuff. I think the point about loli is also true. It has always been uncommon, moralfags having meltdowns over it just exaggerate Japan into "le pervert country" because it melts their brain that it exists. It will probably remain no matter what happens as it is almost like a parallel industry that makes the high quality stuff. Korean and Chinese also don't have much of a taste for the type of moe Japanese like so I doubt they'd copy it on any large scale. All of this said, the Japanese have done some things. It was like last year or the year before that Sony did a protective buy out on part of Kadokawa to keep it from being overtaken by Chinese and Korean investors. Kadokawa sponsored stuff does seem to have changed since then. So it could be that investors are strong arming the companies into making stuff for their countries. Which gives an avenue for the Japanese to reject this for nationalist reasons. Only time will tell how it goes though. Hollywood is also big on the Chinabux right now and I feel like that will be an even bigger crash should a domestic Chinese film industry ever take off. Too many betting too much on unstable investments.tldr: your people are always the ones you can trust the most
>>732345539Fuck you guys the female protag is cute
>faux 80s anime passed through a tumbrl-ifying filterHow come that when I was calling out this game for the same exact thing you were telling me to shut up?
>>732345539Fake anime art style for /co/ faggots.
>>732361943shut up.
>>732361754She ugly you don't know what cute is. Enjoy your fake anime game.
What's the name of this phenomenon? What the fuck is up with people larping as Japanese? The same liberal retards that bitch about appropriation do this shit to the Japanese all the fucking time. It's fucking unbearable to see. It's almost like yellow face but gayer because they still have the superiority thing going on in their head but want to take all the good parts of Japanese shit for themselves. It's the most confused shit I've ever had the displeasure of dealing with. t. 三世
>>732346628btfo the westoid cucks, screencapping this
>>73236015170s leftist anime and manga artists and the modern american left have literally nothing in common. They were actual commies and perverts who loved hot women and sexual violence that would make the PTA angry, not SJWs.
>>732361959You can pretty clearly see the Ghibli and Rumiko Takahashi influence. Maybe some space animes like Dirty Pair or Interstellar 5555. What's "fake" about it?
>>732346628>ムーブメントに参加するoh no no no
>>732362092Dont be a prisoner to such ideas.
>>732362209>What's the name of this phenomenon? What the fuck is up with people larping as Japanese?It's literally called weaboos
>>732355945They can't even copy the 80s art style it fucking looks off.
>>732362209>What the fuck is up with people larping as Japanese?Been a thing for 30 years.
>>732362265Yeah but then again the economic and international politics matters a lot more than whether or not they are coomers or not. Maybe to the hyper sensation orientated (Jungian not MBTI) types on 4chan might see this as weird but to everyone else sexuality is secondary to survival and as such they can over look the coomerism of the 70s-80s mangaka. Then again the hottest right-wing media from Japan (Frieren) is pretty asexual and yet nobody complains about that.That being said I do wish the left was a bit more pro-coomer tho cuz I too like hot anime bitches
>>732362334>>732362390No I don't mean regular weaboos. This is different somehow.
>>732345539What the fucking hell is this abomination?I'm so glad I didn't watched this shit.
>>732362312This wasn't influence they just picked random shit to copy. It's a Fake anime art style for fake anime fans it's super Soulless shit.
>>732349993This.
>>732362312Somebody already explained it: it's fucking lame. There isn't even an attempt at making a cool or sexy character, they're tumbrl blobs designed to be as inoffensive and inclusive as possible and then passed through an anime filter. These fake western anime are all this same shit.
>>732346628They know nobody would buy their shit if they're not pretending to be Japanese
>>732362323Go back to Tumblr faggot. No one going buy this soulless shit.
So anons, why exactly do Tumblrinas think its culturally okay to appropriate the nips while also sanitizing the content? Isn't this appropriation while also simultaneously being "cultural erasure"? How does this dichotomy not appear in their minds? Or do they know about it and are actively insidious?
>>732362312"influence" and "inspiration" doesn't mean something is authentic.
>>732362496Some people are just weridoes. I rented a house with a guy in the late 90s who wanted to be a Native American of the Lakota tribe so fucking bad. Nigga actually went out to South Dakota for months to do rain dances and shit while collecting disability payments. He was a real werid piece of work.
>>732362713It's not appropriation if they do it, same as blackwashing
>>732362713>Or do they know about it and are actively insidious?it's mostly this
>>732345539a gundam game in this artstyle would be kino
>>732362708Tumblr was only good for porn. No need to go there 13 years later. Everyone is going to buy it. Yes: that includes (You).
>>732362713Stop asking questions nazi
>>732362809Should just get Mikimoto to do it.
>>732362265the problem with directionbrain discussion is the left and right of forty years ago are entirely alien to the left and right of today.To put it simply, being "left" back then meant you were broadly a libertine. You liked freedom, sex, and being foul and offensive to upset moral authorities. You didn't like religion, pretty much as a rule.These days being "left" is basically following the rules, self censoring, and apologizing to black people. Any religion that isn't a white people one is sacred.Two completely incompatible worldviews that we conflate as the same thing, for some reason.Was this done on purpose to confuse discussion? yes, probably.
>>732362750It's just Tumblr faggots leech on to shit think the weebs and Japanese are retarded enough to buy there shit.
>>732358604I don't want White Leftists touching, nor ever being involved with anything Japanese. All they want is more Brown people, and the validation of their mental-illnesses. They will infect Japan with their illnesses, and their love for Brown people. They should be exterminated, really. They're like parasites.
>>732362839I'm from/a/ I never use that shit before.
>>732363034You should have moved onto kpop or joshi puroresu.
>>732362713They sanitize the content because they only want to take bits and pieces of the culture Japan may display, they want their own version of Japan. It can't be icky, it needs to be sanitized, lame and gay.
I wonder what people here think about Dowman Sayman's stuff and delicious in dungeon (One of the modern manga that actually feels tabletop/crpg inspired and not some vague archetype of what an MMO is).
>>732363079Kpop is shit kpop is better.
This is some of the most artificial anti-shilling I've seen in awhile.
>>732363149I agree. Wonhee is probably my favorite atm.
>>732363136Delicious in Dungeon is alright I guess, the /a/ threads can be fun. Vidya like this is blatant kusoge though.
>>732351923But not as hard as I'm nailing ur mom
>>732362943Eh, I think that Kyle Kylenski is bringing back that sort of vibe these days and a lot of anti-woke youtubers will shit on you relentlessly for having a black or a gay in your movies these days.
The 80s style is nice but those designs are tranny coded
>>732347393WHY DO THEY NEVER IRON THEM

>>732363136Fuck half elf, hard
>>732362638it's called being cute. Not every character is for you to goon to.You'd watch Crayon Shin Chan and call it tumblr
>Hey kids, I heard you like 80s anime! Here's our new Akira inspired game, just as cool if the japanese made it!
Wait so it's It Takes Two but anime? Hard pass.
>>732348392>Miyazaki dicksucking only prevalent in weebs, to Japs it's just another style and not particularly compelling, >sexless lgbt-coded designsA jap indie would never make this.
>>732363441NTA but you are outing yourself the more you speak, Shin Chan is very Japanese my gaijin friend. Keep talking tumblrina.

>>732363159I think it's made by those hyper conservative twitter people from say the US, back when twitter allowed you to see who was posting from where for like a day or so.
>>732346628>>732357625Never forget when people defended this being called a manga.I forgot the image in my last post
>>732363441You're a fucking cretin. There's nothing further than anime cuteness (or moe) than western tumbrl sensibilities.
>>732363526You think every anime is about sex, because you don't watch anime.
>>732363441You have never watched Shinchan
>>732363606If I told you a white person drew that, you would hate it instinctually, and complain that their tits aren't big enough.
>>732363609Every anime is not about sex gaijin-kun, it's about being Japanese which this is not. Stop thinking everything is porn, it would serve you well.
>>732346628now this is autism!
>>732363681I don't see the point of being a Japanese supremacist when I'm not even Japanese. If other people can do what I like about Japanese media, I'm not going to get mad about it, because I'm not demented.
>>732363678Nah chuds just hate average tit sizes
>>732363681>moves goalposts
>>732363772I am not a Japanese supremacist, I like Japanese media a lot. Gaijin media that masquerades a skinsuit of Japan's corpse deserves every bit of criticism gaijin-kun.
>>732363457This poster is mentally ill.
i genuinely need to see more of this game so i can better understand how they managed to make this aesthetic so soulless. will be a great educational tool for what not to do with visual design.
>>732350649Wew, been over 12 years since I seen this pic
>>732360443>When you realize the Jap-hate is purely shills, it becomes obvious every time a vaguely-japanese game is mentioned (including this obviously not japanese game)It's funnier now, in the past I "knew' the hate for jp stuff was artificial but they had the plausible deniability of being a bunch of different schizos that just so happened to agree on something.Now with the confirmation epstein and his cronies literally considered people learning japanese to be as bad as kids finding crack dealers I know for a fact it's literal jew gayops.
>>732364072it's just tumblr lepers finding industry positionsyou'd see this shitty 'imitation crabmeat' anime style all the time on there before the great exodus
>>732362209Japan has cultivated and protected its image for years and people want part of it. Like cheap Chinese shit on Amazon with Japanese writing
>>732363457kek
>>732346628Welp, it was fun while it lasted, pack it up boys.
>>732350614It's okay and encouraged to be racist against japan. Those yellow jap monkeys.
>>732362209It used to be humorous ribbing but it's now the only identity left that hasn't been full-jewed. Literally every other form of media, form of entertainment, form of culture, form of human communication in the western world has been subverted and misused to either push mindless propaganda or devolve it into low-quality mockeries in an attempt to demoralize or destabilize major American industries. This isn't by mistake either, the rush to the bottom is done with the explicit goal of attempting to force people to want more while having less. Think of an American industry that hasn't seen a distinct, sharp decline of quality and quantity within the last 10 years, and realize the squeeze is real. The only section of the world that has not gone along with this is the East. Who used to be known for making cheap shit, but somehow their cheap shit is beating our billion dollar attempts at psychological warfare. So people naturally pretend to be Japanese and consume Japanese things first and foremost to escape the squeeze.
>>732366653And it gets better when you read the epstein files and realize the richest people on the planet were explicitly buying things to ruin them on purpose: because it kept people at each other's throats when all of the things they liked were inexplicably destroyed for the benefit of tiny minorities who didn't want it either.
>>732348392Same. I kinda liked the way it looked for a second when I first saw it, but then I started noticing little things.>Gameplay looks like a PS2-era western licensed game>Environments looked like they could be from any generic western action-adventure game with some Japanese writing occasionally thrown on certain objects>The character designs seemed a bit off>Music sounds more like 80s American pop than anything from Japan in the 80s or 90s
