Don't you know how to talk about anything besides Prison School and Gatchaman Crowds?

Nope!

Insert Calvin and Hobbes dad explains two types of things meme edited to prove my point.

Dying in office because you insisted on clinging to power until the very end instead of letting a new generation of leaders rise should be seen for the shameful, egomaniacal act that it is.

The only morally correct ageist opinion is that absolutely no one above retirement age should be allowed to work in public office. Not a single soul

"some" = Paramount and the Ellisons, who wants to discredit criticism of this shitty merger.

Netflix doesn't have to do anything; every time Warner Bros mergers it's a disaster. They just have to wait three years and buy the resulting carcass for half of what Paramount is paying ($108 billion)

this is true and bad but part of the problem is that *the market* also seems to be treating this as "distant crisis mostly of interest to nerds that will work itself out" which is a deeply confusing signal that is not entirely the fault of the press in this case

adaptations to take less risks which subsequently means getting less interesting art

It also kind of harms anime as an artform too because when the expectation for anime adaptations is to function as the "definitive version" it helps breed the kind of mentality where people will rag on an anime for not perfectly recreating manga panels and just creates an overall incentive for

default option for experiencing a manga's story despite manga as a medium having a lot of its own flourishes and techniques that even the best adaptation can't replicate directly

I know a lot of this comes down to the unfortunate reality that anime is still SIGNIFICANTLY easier to access through legal means over here than anime is, and not enough has been done to correct that but even so it's hard not to get frustrated when anime adaptations are usually viewed as the

Not throwing shade at anyone specific, but I feel like at some point we need to reckon with the reality that a lot of western anime fans, even including some respected critics, really do just view manga as glorified anime storyboards rather than its own medium worthy of equal respect to animation

The people asking “Does Israel have a right to exist?” are usually asking, “Does Israel have the right to prioritize maintaining a Jewish voting majority above enfranchising every person living in the territory they are governing?” And I wish they would be honest enough to ask that question.

You don’t need a birds eye view to appreciate the Earth, but it definitely helps! Happy Earth Day from Senku, Ryusui, and Chrome 🌏

You want to vote for this person? My parents defended this country and fought to prevent genocide. I expect your parents or grandparents might have done the same. But you do genocide if that's who you are. #Reform #genocide

We need to stop accepting views expressed on Twitter as real opinions. The sooner everyone assumes that the median post on that website is done in bad faith and principally designed to chase clout, the sooner we stop letting these fake controversies take up all the oxygen in the room.

MARRIAGETOXIN ‒ Episode 3

[Review] Even with how much his anti-social tendencies have been played for laughs, these looks into Gero's past make it clear that the way he was raised ended up emotionally stunting him in ways he's only just now starting to realize.

My favourite burger chain died because of it 😭

talk about it the people making your favorite thing, you shouldn't be surprised 99% of the time they're just gonna think you're an asshole who doesn't give a shit about their livelihood and respond accordingly

I'm not here to argue about piracy as frankly unless we're talking about stuff new and easily accessible through legal means or stuff getting leaked early, I don't really care what anyone does in private circles but at the very least you've gotta understand that when you

At the risk of sounding my age here I don't think I've ever experienced more second hand embarrassment on the internet than seeing (what I hope are) teens harassing their favorite mangaka over petty shit and weird accusations or straight up telling them to their faces that they pirate their work

Column - Does Social Media Ruin Everything?

With access to creators only an @ away, does social media do more harm than good?

Toei has gotten (slightly) better about international distribution in recent years so maybe this won't be a total disaster on that front but it's certainly gonna be a challenge I can tell ya that

If people were cruel by nature why do all of our soldiers have PTSD? Shouldn’t they be fine? Why are all of our cops and paramilitary groups paranoid? Shouldn’t they be based?Why did Christian Bale crash out over that puppy in Equilibrium? Don’t answer that last one.

Israel has killed more than 700 people in Gaza since last year's US-brokered 'ceasefire'

Very weird how this discourse never happened with The Walking Dead or The Last of Us or Dad of War or Bioshock, I wonder what could possibly be the defining factor here

I had to do it you see

regardless of actual quality, for better or worse. (Hopefully for the better but the Hollywood track record leaves much to be desired)

I mean imo, trying to do a live action version of 0079 would have probably been the worst thing they could have done. Especially when the franchise is already built in a way where it's easy to slip in an original story. So long as it's a war story with mechs it'll still be a Gundam series
