Welcome to c/anime on Hexbear!
A leftist general anime and donghua community for discussion and memes.
Simple rules
Be nice.
Use spoiler tags.
Don't sexualise underage characters, including 1000 year old loli ones.

High quality threads you should definitely visit
Gigathread: Good Anime Talks, Presentations, Conventions, Panels, etc
Piracy is good and you should do more of it. Use https://aniwave.to/ and https://4anime.gg/ for streaming, and https://nyaa.si/ for torrents. Piracy is the only means of digital protest that audiences have to fight poor worker treatment.
“Anime is Christian” anime uses what is basically blasphemy constantly, a veneer of Christian aesthetic for the purpose of a plot or character. That’s how you get a “vampire hunter” adorned with crosses and saying jumbled church Latin. The Catholic Church would never admit vampires are real. These people are tourists about Christianity. And anime. Life in general. A fucking dandelion floating on the wind.
Yeah, Japanese culture is so non-Christian that they find Christian symbolism to be exotic, and weave it into their fiction for edgy shock value.
The bad guys in NGE are called 'Angels' very Christian, very cool
Anyone who uses that slur deserves to be promptly beaten to death with multiple sticks before being kicked and pissed on.
It's an instant "no more questions, face the wall" 
It's so pathetic too, like tr---y has some oomf to it but like tr--n just feels so lackluster. First time i ever saw it used unironically was glinner (57 years old) calling a 17 year old it on his blog because he had an argument with her
Anyone caught using 4chan language as an adult should be mocked and their heads put into a toilet. The only exception I'm make is the word based, but only if you're calling actually good things based
Rickroll, kino, creepypasta, weeaboo and some derivations thereof, troll, brony, waifu and husbando, rules 34 and 63, MFW, muh, fedpost, zoomer, coomer, copium, consoom, cumbrained, god tier, and vidya are some other terms originating in chan culture that I think have become more or less fully normalized in broader Internet culture if not culture in general. Also, Lil B came up with based (albeit with a different meaning than what 4chan eventually twisted it into), show him some respect.
I think weeaboo was a similar case to based, where it's originally from this Perry Bible Fellowship comic.
The shortened form of weeb might be a 4chan original.
Oh, yes, good idea to point that out. I believe it was that 4chan's word filter turned "wapanese" into "weeaboo", right?
Don't know myself, but my searching seems to say yes.
It's a shibboleth but one that marks you as the most pathetic and distasteful bottom-dwelling scum
Please CW for transphobic slur.
One piece season 2 is campy and the pacing feels off at some points but it's really fun and I love seeing people (see: navy fash) get murdered in horrible ways because oda would never.
Yeah if your scope of anime is weirdo isekai harem slop then you'd think anime was fascist and christian.
One Piece is one of the wokest pieces of media I've ever seen come out of Japan. These people are hilarious.
Not an anime but I was reading reviews for the new Spartacus House of Ashur series, and some people were skewering it for being too woke for having a black gladiatrix be the star, saying the creators had forgotten what made the original great. Spartacus, the series about a slave rebellion, with like 3 aggressively gay relationships with on-screen sex scenes, with a black woman slave who becomes one of their main fighters. Just wild trolling from people who were watching (if they watched it all) with one eye on the TV and the other lodged on Facebook right-wing rage bait on their phone.
Anime is right-wing and Christian, reality shows are liberal and Muslim, police procedurals are Posadist and Buddhist. It's simple facts.
This is how I learn the second season's out I guess.
Also in a just world people would be in ~~a gulag~~ Impel Down for posting like this.
Big same. We can rely on the right wingers screaming "WOKE!!!!" at anything.
Now that the chuds are mad, I know it exists and it looks fun.
Only watched the first 4 episodes but it's been cheesy fun, like the first season. Some sick performances in the soundtrack too - Whisky Peak sax goes crazy
for a second i thought the anime was back, cus of all the season1 memes that appeared after it was announced the anime was going seasonal. now im just kinda sad
the father of anime was a member of the communist party
Who?
I think Osamu Tezuka, but his ideology was kinda all over the place and he was a party member for less than a year
Hey just like me!
If by party you mean the JCP(couldn't find which org he joined from a quick search, or when) they're haven't even been marxist since the mid 70's they're basically center left social democrats, although more radical in the past but never very revolutionary
He would have been a member some time in the 1960s since he apparently did a cartoon in a 1967 issue of the JCP newspaper
the mid 70's
Osamu Tezuka was born in 1928
so was ew mother
I'm sorry I don't know who this is
Yeah, Tezuka wrote an Astro Boy arc where he goes back in time and fights the American military during the Vietnam War. But he also has Astro Boy commit 2 separate genocides (against alien species) which are portrayed as a good thing. Tezuka also wrote a manga called "Message to Adolf" about Hitler (I haven't read that one, so not sure what the politics are).
I can't wait 'til they get to Ivankov
I started watching OP last year and I can't wait until I get to Ivankov.
Cole Escola is truly too good and too talented
I liked John of God more than Jon of Rice, and that's saying something.
