Well, finally finished Shigurui.

WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT ENDING.
Great now I really gotta go read it. Not gonna lie, the whole part with Fujiki doing CPR on sensei, I couldn't stop laughing? Like it just felt so ridiculous to me but it just.. worked.

Anyone got any other gory recommendations outside of the usual? (Elfin Lied, Higurashi, Hellsing, Another, Madoka, Devil Man,etc.)
Length doesn't matter nor does the genre. I can handle a decent amount of gore, but i'm not super keen on torture porn.

Has she been living under a rock for the last 20 years? Lol this is amusing, but also frustrating at the same time. If they're going to go after drawings at this point, they might as well fess up and admit they want to go after comic book stores selling what amounts to "porn" to minors since according to zealots, comics are a gateway to porn due to how women are drawn.

She was paid for this presentation and it was given to state and federal law enforcement officials. I do not have a better place to share this but I was so torn between wanting to break down laughing and being mad that it just validates my continued disdain of and suspicion of any so-called "experts" in any field.

In all seriousness, this just does not sound right at all. Not even to puritans that despise anime.

One series I unironically wish would get a sequel is Darling In The Franxx (bite me).

Having been rewatching it, while yes, the last act of the show is extremely messy, I still ended up liking the series overall, mainly due to Hiro and Zero Two's relationship. Not to mention that its ending actually does have several unresolved plots that could be explored in a second season. There's a reason that some are still asking for one to be made; both to give the series a proper non-underwhelming ending, and to see more of the characters.

How on earth can you make a sequel to that series that "adds more to the characters" when the ending is supposed to be a 1000 years since Hiro and Zero Two left to deal with the Virm? It's impossible unless you want to scrub/retcon the original. Even then, there would be nothing for the characters to do except fight the Virm again if they come back which would be boring.

It isn't right at all. She's just an idiot.

Honestly I've never found much anime or anime adjacent material in the possession of pedophiles. I did find a whole lot of my little pony shit about five to six years back but that has almost entirely tapered off. A lot of the first timers we work are aspiring "streamers", though, but I have yet to find one with more than a hundred subs on any account I knew of.

Given that both Hiro and Zero Two are reincarnated back on Earth, I would like to see those two slowly regain their memories of their past selves. Maybe even follow them on their adventures as they finally decide to see what the rest of the world is like, all while they continue to grow their relationship together. Heck, that was the strongest element of the series in my eyes, so all the better to hone in on it.

Maybe it couldn't support a whole season, but something like a movie or OVA would do the job. I just really think that there is still more that can be done with the show. And heck, many online are still asking for a continuation, and the character of Zero Two is still extremely popular. So it would be a waste in my eyes to not go for it.

I work chiefly in sex offense investigations and today I had to sit through a meeting with a sex offender counselor who told a group of professionals about a new form of pornography called anime, and how it should be confiscated if any is found to be owned by a sex offender. According to her there is also an even newer form of anime called hentai, and it is all child pornography. She believed fully that hentai was and should be treated as child pornography and the grounds for an arrest.

After that the presentation veered off into roblox and VRChat being proxies for rapists to fondle kids online and rape their avatars. There was no shit a picture of Ugandan Knuckles in this presentation.

She was paid for this presentation and it was given to state and federal law enforcement officials. I do not have a better place to share this but I was so torn between wanting to break down laughing and being mad that it just validates my continued disdain of and suspicion of any so-called "experts" in any field.

Sorry to veer slightly off topic or power level but I think that is the only time I have ever heard anyone mention anime in my professional life and I have been hiding my immense weebdom for well over a decade at this point.

You fool, you could ask question until it got in to interesting topics? Imagine the counselor trying to explain tentacles and how is accept in mongolia?

It is almost always a given at these sorts of seminars when an "expert" who hasn't actually ever done anything that isn't written on paper is talking, you know they're full of shit. You, and everyone else other than the sniveling cockfag who always wanted to ask the teacher to elaborate on every mundane thing right before the lunch bell and who somehow survived high school without getting drowned in the toilet, just tune them out, play on your phone, and mark down your continued education credits.

It did make me both amused and mad, though. Amused because it reminded me of the video games make you school shooters stuff on the 90s. Mad, because it's one thing to be experienced enough to be able to ID an "expert" as a retard. What about the "experts" pontificating without rebuttal or questioning in the fields you don't know anything about? I'm a skeptical, suspicious, and somewhat paranoid guy to begin with. Stuff like that makes me immediately question the motives of speakers rather than deferring to any expertise they may have.

None that I can recall. But despite the cunnyposters of the world, anime just hasn't been something I've ever noticed sex offenders in general to really have a major propensity for. Certainly nothing more than casual interest- it's not weird to see, say, a DBZ or pokemon tshirt, but for late 20s to early 30s people that's the sort of throwback nostalgia anyone might have.

It makes sense, pedos would probably follow the trends that kids would be into, they'd probably be some trying to get into tiktok or whatever kids are watch or play.

Yeah. This guy is just deflecting to try and protect himself. He is in a media shitstorm in Japan over comments he made about the Olympics. So he is saying anything right now to try and get the focus somewhere else.

Funnily enough I'm pretty sure these comments will get him in just as much shit too.

Plus, Kadokawa makes far too much money from sexual LN's to switch course now lol

Edit: That twitter thread is great and covers everything.

Aaaaand The prez got BTFO. Hopefully this causes @InsolentGaylord to persona 3 himself.... in persona 3 of course
 
I know it's not the true way to gauge popular anime, but I got curious and calculated the number of anime on MAL's top 100 popular anime and nearly 75% of it aired in the 2010s. 20% are 2000s anime, which backs up my personal belief newcomer fans think anime older than 2008 isn't worth watching, and I want to die.

Heh, that would be quite a sight to see again.

In all seriousness though, believe it or not, the show, even though it is quite divisive and a bit of a source of mockery in the West, DITF actually still fairly popular over in Japan, and there is actually a decent number of people who want to see a continuation.

Who knows? Maybe after Nishigori finishes his collaboration with Khara on that Idolmaster concept film, he'll go for it. He's probably learned a lot from his time working with Anno on Eva 3.0 + 1.0. I realize that I am one of the very few on this site that is still a fan of it, but dang it all, no matter how flawed it is, the good stuff I found in the show was simply too much for me to just ignore, alongside its untapped story potential.

But if you became the sniveling cockfag when your supervisor/boss does this shit and can't leave(but not became too annoying to be fired). It's the situation to lose a battle but win a war,because you can get away from this shit and nobody will bat a eye. It happen to me a situation similar, there was a phrase called "speaking phase" to make history short it's nobody read the book that the phrase originated including the speaker, my cocksucker supervisor how had the brilliant idea lost the day and I paid some beer for my colleagues after not to burn me too much.
