    Current Systemic Issues in the Anime Industry and Community

    Dear lord Houseman, you've gone far off topic You have no nuance or understanding of the point and are just stonewalling I will be honest, i don't understand why you think attraction to childish bodies or minds is a normal or social acceptable thing. Don't give me hypothetical or fringe cases...

    Current Systemic Issues in the Anime Industry and Community

    Yes, information changes things but while we can feel something from a biological sense, we are humans. We have a mind that can go above the id of biological desire. As such, if one gains information, one should modify and adjust their feelings as needed.

    Current Systemic Issues in the Anime Industry and Community

    To just have fun is disingenuous and ignorant in my mind. We are people with critical minds and the ability to analyze. The main nuance missing in this is the question of intent. Characters, as i stated, aren't born fully formed from the ether. They are made by human hands for a purpose or...

    Current Systemic Issues in the Anime Industry and Community

    I'm just going to point this out: Characters don't just spring from the ether fully formed with histories, body types, and personalities without intervention. Characters are made by human hands for a purpose or reason. In the case of stuff like Tatsumaki, there was an intent behind the design...

    Season 2 of Shield Hero

    I endured 13 episodes of this crap show out of a feeling of obligation to critical analysis but man this show, it feels so indulgent in a self justifying revenge fantasy. From what i remember of the show, the show felt like it had no real world building or character development outside of...

    Current Systemic Issues in the Anime Industry and Community

    I suppose i best reply to stuff -Yes, when the medium was smaller, i didn't have these issues. But I have also grown older and found stuff to be irritating at this point. After a firm exposure to the best the medium has to offer as well as the best of film, I find the majority of anime to be...

    Current Systemic Issues in the Anime Industry and Community

    I will be quite frank, I find the notion of escapist fiction in anime to be very unbalanced. Yes, the shows made and that i have issue with are made to escape from the realities of the world and to be a salve to stresses felt. However, I find that there is a lack of awareness of the fact that...

    Current Systemic Issues in the Anime Industry and Community

    Uzaki-proportioned existent woman comments on the ongoing controversy.

    I find that amusing seeing as we have had anime discussion in the past As for the topic itself, I'm with Devils x on this one. I really don't understand why the "clumsy or childish is sexy" thing exists. It feels far too pervasive and systemic in anime at this rate to be a one off thing...

    Thought Experiment Regarding the Replication of Powers in RWBY

    Yes, it's been done but I still feel it was missing two things. One, it was hard light not actual metala or materials. Two, it was missing the ability to create a territory to generate weapons faster and away from the user.

    Disorder Reviews: The Rising of the Shield Hero (2019)

    OH dear god ,this show I personally found that the subtext between Raphtalia and Naofumi was too much, it felt like stockholm syndrome and the show was a bit hypocritical for saying that in addition, i found the world building to be artificial and bending over backwards to justify Nao's...

    Death Battle Escapist Forum Edition: Misaka Mikoto vs Virgil Hawkins (Static)

    Welp, i'm bored and seeing as Death Battle online continues to pull it's punches way too much in terms of actual combatants and power levels, I figure I would try something on the Escapist Forums. As such, I would like to make a Death Battle Escapist Forum Edition. First up on the docket are...
