Inside Out, Deadpool and Mufasa.

Hollywood has its problems I don't doubt, but believing that anime can become an obstacle or a rival.
My boy, these are weeb reveries.

Complaining about diversity in a place that's made for absolute weebs and social outcasts (here) is an irony that isn't lost on me. Jfc, OP, be real right now. Being a transphobe and racist won't make society look at you any better, you're still an otaku and you don't get any more clemency 🤣

Someone smoked way too much while creating this

Not a fan of this westernization of anime anyway, feels kinda like colonization. When done with passion, like Edgerunners, it's tasteful. This just feels like it's purely made for money. The commoditization of art is already a problem in the west and I fear it's spreading in the east now too.

@Koyorides_ this show is gay

The point of entertainment is to entertain, which this show has done well in so far. You’re overthinking it.

@Koyorides_
so Kohei Horikoshi, the author of MHA, is the worst for you?
He always said he was a fan of Marvel and DC and, inspired by comics, I started my career in comics.

Unfortunately weeb kids like you live in a bubble.

@Koyorides_

clearly your problem isn't DC, or why they made him an anime series.
But why some problem with gays.

@Landonime

I'm guessing you've seen very few anime if you've never encountered a gay character.

However, those who often repeat "diversity inclusion cashgrab", I read a too veiled racial/homophobic thought.

@Koyorides_ I didn't even read it, I'm about this anime. I mean it's purely commercial work I get it but I like to see it as mocking western comics. There were some funny moments but other than that whole show make my stomach hurt fr. Ending goofy af, that's pretty cool tho that they made zoomer Joker but what the point if he's gone, all he did drove a car with piano (the hell?). That dude Rick Flag my favorite character so far, he's like most normal character idk, obviously Harley and Clay dude pretty cool too but what about John Cena on peacemaker xdd? I'm sorry, had to let it all out...

completely agree with you mate

There are thousands of koyorides_. They watch anime but don't actually care about it besides it being a product. Yeah, anime are just ads for light novel and manga sells in Japan, but within the last decade anime has slowly started to change. More studios have been doing original creations or giving more niche manga/light novels a chance to be made into a production. DC has been giving b tier anime studios work for years. And Warner brothers have been working with anime studios before you were even born. But original works like this are nice because this would have easily just been one of the many straight to DVD DC movies (those are average at best, but some are really decent) but they didn't. I think their last DC anime was Batman Ninja? That animation studio was only known for the jojo intros, relentlessly praised by weebs. Yeah, now they are working on Sandland for the cgi. I expected a Dragon Quest anime before seeing Sandland get adapted. If you had shown me Dungeon Meshi in the past and told me trigger made it, I wouldn't have blinked, but I would have been shocked how well it was doing with viewers.

I live for this experimental shit. If you didn't understand what Space Dandy or Chainsaw Man (I fucking hate chainsaw man as a show) were doing and how cool it was, then you just aren't a fan of anime as a whole. I love anime when it's actually trying. I love it when Japanese studios allow creative collaboration from other countries at different career levels. It's more common than you think, and it usually leads to some amazing stuff.

For a site made to keep track of what anime or manga you have watched and read, I would think discussions about the industry and the artist, voice actors, directors etc. would be encouraged.
Not another person taking time out of their day to make a thread about western influence putting their dirty desperate diversity enabling hands on my precious pristine Japanese anime.

Clearly not if you think otoko no ko means man in a dress

Yes otoko is man. otoko no ko is a boy. no ko is literally used to say a child child-men = boy. That's why onna no ko is a girl. Oshi no ko is the child of my oshi (the idol I support). Nothing to do with trans people or dresses.

If you want to say they call men in dresses boys, fair enough. but it does not mean man in a dress. I think the word you are looking for is probably okama

There are not that many names for trans people in Japan, and very few indicate anything about them wearing women's clothing. The technical term for transsexuality would be seibetsu henkan (which translates to change of sex). Transjendaa is also used.

In terms of rude/slang words you have okama, and okege. Okama is usually used in anime when they use transsexuality as a joke. It is also used to reger to effeminate men/ behaviour that is seen as girly.

If you mean that in general, men dressing up as women is used in comedy; definitely, but there's a distinct difference in men dressing up for comedy and being trans.

I'm not going to argue Japan is very trans positive, it isn't. But more in the sense that it isn't much of a topic that gets discussed, and when it does, most people don't care, because they let people be who they are. I'm sorry the terms used in Japan don't fit your bias.

TLDR: men dressing up as woman is used as a joke in japanese culture, yes. But they see this as fundamentally different from people being trans. If you don't see the difference, that's on you.

japan in general does see trans people or gay people for what they are

annabloem said:


Which is?

But yes, Japanese anime focuses on it's own audience, most of Japan does not care about the world outside Japan at all. But you've clearly never read Japanese literature if you think pretentious high IQ stuff is a Hollywood thing and not found in Japan

"but desperate cashgrabs should not be respected"

the reason why 99% of the anime that come out each season is made.

In order to attack Western production, the worst hypocrisies come out

@Koyorides_

what lol?
it is clear that the author of re zero has only seen the Suicide Squad films and has not read any albums.

The anime series presents the film version with all the strengths and weaknesses, even the other world is nothing new in comics.
