Okay, let's see which takes we've gone through..

So we did:
  • They're pushing agendas!
  • Oh no, puritanical westerners. We've got to stop them!
  • Oh my god, stop forcing your diversity on me!
  • This is literally censorship!
  • It's all the left's/SJWs'/feminists' fault!
  • They're going to take away our moe girls!

And right now we're at global conspiracy by the jews..




Heh, figures this thread would bring out the dudebro incel gamergaters crying "oh no the ess jay dubyoos want to destroy anime!" when that's the furthest thing from the truth. We only want to:

a) force racial diversity quotas - only nazi racists would oppose this idea
b) eliminate the misogynistic ideal girl stereotypes - because irl all women are whores
c) ban sexually provocative material - because women should be respected not ogled

But western influence is beneficial to the anime industry. Dont forget too, that this is for the better treat of the animators that need to know about unions.

Unions aren't current year though. Also, Japan has unions and had them for a long time.

Honestly as much as I don't like Funimation this whole this is going to end anime view is incredibly stupid. Crunchyroll has been on production committees for three years and really did the stuff they were on change anime?

If you want to be worried about that the stagnating Japanese market, poor treatment and development of animators and the fact despite the growth in profits 30% of studios are in the red is the biggest issue.
Accurately assessing this problem would require a level of attention to detail and also fine-bristled criticism of the anime industry.

It's a lot easier to just blame some supposed outsider.


Well there is a reason to be concerned Funi's brand has changed a lot from when I first got into anime when the advertisement was about producing completely uncensored anime content. Though at the end of the day anime does need the international market to expand anyone can look at industry reports and see that. Most of the growth is coming from the international market.

Plus so many of these people have bashed Funi for not "supporting animators" (this isn't going to do that either) and now they are making direct investments into anime which people mocked them for not doing. Plus CR at most has done around what like 23 titles out of the maybe 270 released over the last three years and they are just one party on the committee. This whole "culture war" bs has gotten so stupid and annoying. If Funi does something stupid then boycott the show or source. One of the best things about bigger Western influence is that it matters what the community does. It's not like Japan has had plenty of censorship scares either.

Are you kidding me? Is that the serious suggestion that union hating America with one of the worst hire-and-fire systems and exploitation of near-slave workers (aka "illegal immigrants") will improve working conditions in Japan? I take one ounce of what you are smoking, please.

We're stuck at home; that's why we're arguing on the internet.
