Even though anime is mainstream in the West now (unfortunately), I’m still conditioned to pretend that I don’t care about it at all. Maybe that’s a good thing, for me at least.
I find it really obnoxious when these indie game composers use zunpets. It’s only used because they think it’s an epic reference the listener will get. It’s the same as hack Western animators putting in Akira bikeslides or people from California referencing the 405 freeway.
I’m praying that Letterboxd gets sold to Paramount. I need to see worms like Sally Jane Black writhe around in agony knowing that their website is owned Ellisons and is devolving into hecking corposloppa. A bunch of Goliaths who think they’re Davids writhing in mental anguish.
yeah Oshii GitS is like 10x better but comparing them is so annoying. It's like comparing a 5 star meal to mcdonalds. obviously the 5 star meal is better, but you find yourself eating at mcdonalds way more. that doesn't mean mcdonalds is better, its just simple and accessible.
Things that will be raped by normies in the future
-Shmups/STGs, think very palatable stuff like Dodonpachi, Thunder Force, anything Treasure, etc
-Anything Doujinsoft adjacent, VNs and Rance being the canary(s) in the coal mine
-Ryona/Gore, these will become safe horny somehow
-Mega Man, it’s already developing a fandom exactly like Sonic. Instead of endearingly clueless Gen-Xers and Brazilians, it’ll be awful American zoomers who want to see good about it destroyed. Worms like @DRN_003, @SuperRichie64, the people running @20XXpo, etc are to blame.
The only enjoyable thing on this website is optimizing how cruel and convincing you can make your demands for people to kill themselves within the 280 character limit.
