I can't believe you actually said the line.
Here you have it, folks. Jujutsu Kaisen joins Attack on Titan, Disney Star Wars, My Hero Academia, and Game of Thrones for having an ending so horrible no one can actually name anything good about it. They can only tell you to accept what it was.

And my fucking god, has there been any point in general entertainment history where there were flops so clustered together?
Then I dare you to write how it could have gone. I'm smiling as I type this because for you to even use those other shitfests (with the exception of maybe Attack on Titan), the cope levels are spilling out of my screen. Please, I await your very original alternate ending that could have made it into a masterpiece. :story:

Why would I bother to do that? My only interest in Jujutsu Kaisen was curiosity on how the story would progress and end. It had a mediocre start, meandered for a few arcs, rushed into its big middle arc after hasty setup, and then rushed through it's slog of a penultimate arc to finally finish. It's as you said: we got what we got. And that is the best anyone could say of it. Not the themes, not the character moments, not the outcome, and not even the satisfaction of it concluding. It simply exists.

Oh, it's so sad that Gege couldn't make it even more high fantasy that aliens would come down from the heavens and rain unholy death on the human populace. It might have been entertaining for someone of your preferences. Really reaching there, bud.

Personally im just fucking sick and tired of japanese high school being the premise of the majority of anime.

Its such a creatively bankrupt and overused setting that it may as well be a red flag at this point and all of the fans of that kind of slop are immature retards who never have anything interesting to say. They just act like the majority of uppity tertiary coomer retards and vtuberniggers that end up with threads here.

Seeing parallels between an anime and a western work just gets you ostracized and seen as “weird”. God forbid you don’t have any cringe sonichu tier shitposts and actually have an imagination with innovative ideas. That’s the worst thing since hitler if you don’t draw porn or attempt to plagiarize character designs/be a nigger.

I think its better to avoid anime fandoms. They ruin the enjoyment of anime for me because I like to talk about anime I like. But I don’t want to deal with cliquish retards playing god and running their mouths while admittedly not even watching the anime the discord server is named after because said server killed whatever previous online community it latched onto by banning everyone at random.

Are you posting this from 2010? I fucking wish we went back to high school after the deluge of isekai.

The protagonists beat Sukuna only to be immediately btfo'd by curse version Donald Trump caused by a decade of seething by leftists.

More seriously, wouldn't modern times have way more curses which are more powerful just from having more people that can dedicate time to their misery? Why is it always some feudal age guy being the big bad?

Thats why you invest in smaller anime that are overshadowed and filter anyone fast like Texhnolyze.
Or you just avoid interacting with fanbases and enjoy your own shit like a normal person. If other people ruin media for you, it proves how weak you are..
 
Life back then sucked ass. Life today relatively sucks less ass.
Yeah, but back then you had relatively little to blame than fate and didn't have a lot of time to wallow in grief. Meanwhile today there is probably just as many people as lived back then whole sole purpose is to A-log about politics/media.
 
Speaking of going back, the best Tolkien anime not made by Tolkien returns.

Ok retard. Your constant sperging in the silent hill thread shows how much of a "weak" hypocrite you are. Shut the fuck up about the silent hill 2 remake and take your own damn advice.

I still think you really shouldn't be around fanbases, its a good way to ruin something you enjoy, especially NOW. You don't need a community to enjoy chinese cartoons, just sit down and watch the damn thing.
Are there any obscure and abstract manga/anime anyone knows of to recommend?
I always recommend Casshern Sins. It's a solid kind of reboot of an older 70s anime that is very solid.

Uh huh... I see. *AHEM* Anyone got any obscure anime or manga that isn't gay or just coomer bait and more akin to seinen? Just something truly weird and surreal. Something like Mononoke, or any schizo shit art style wise.

I've been meaning to watch the Casshern Sins reboot, it's just another pretty large anime episode wise. Probabably after I finish Samurai Champloo.

Hey the scantily clad girl doesn't really do fanservice and isn't even attracted to the protagonist due to spoiler reasons. Plus it's not shonen in the slightest despite the premise and has an actual ending.

Interestingly it has the same producer as Mononoke, and there's his other work Trapeze which I've heard good things about.

Not sure how obscure you're looking for, but:

Mushishi
Sayonara Zetsubou-sensei
Pani Poni Dash
Kaiba
Ergo Proxy
Nichijou

Ergo Proxy is not very obscure I've seen it, its pretty weak storywise but I do miss manglobe studios. The others look neat.
The best thing about Ergo Proxy was this and the fact that the protagonist is literally just Amy Lee from Evanescence.

Okay what's the deal with the Evangelion translation controversy? I know Studio Khara and Anno himself supervised it.

What exactly is the difference between the ADV subtitles and the new ones? I love the old ADV dub but I'm willing to sacrifice Fly Me To The Moon and whatnot for the subtitled version only. (Come to think of it I never actually watched the subbed version in full)

I know you also get Death/Rebirth and EoE in the bluray too. (EoE was too sad for me. I'm sore over Misato and Ritsuko lol. Also it scared me when everyone turned into Tang. Granted I was like 14. I know Yui implies they can return and all but.......) They also have a ton of extras. I think Kotono Mitsushi did a bunch of promo voiceover from what I've been told?

I have the Platinum set without the extras. Misato and Asuka in particular are the best acted ones in ADV's dub. But as I said idgaf about the new dub. Its a hate crime they made Shinji a troon, and casting Erica Lindbeck as Ritsuko makes absolutely no fucking sense because she's too young and doesn't have the range. A bad fit. But regardless if we pretend the dubs don't exist at all...and its only subs. Looking at it from that angle, how is it?
Crossposting just to be safe. I'm genuinely curious about it. Any Evangelion veterans/enthusiasts/experts that can weigh in?
