A syndrome of a sick society that holds up losers as role models for social figures, a kind of "loserification" of society.
This is something observable not only through anime but also through literature, music, and even cinema.
We can also say that the moment when art only copies art is the moment when art finally dies.
Art draws inspiration from reality, distorts it, or makes it ugly, depending on the will of the author and the message (if there is a message) they want to convey.
We've moved from an era where creators relied on history, literature, ideals, philosophy, theology, or the lives of the world's great men as their reference points to an introspective style that ends up, in one case, taking itself as its reference material, and in another, becoming depressing and pretentious, wanting to emulate its forefathers without having their life stories, their experience, or their depth.
The manga and anime market is a consumer market that obeys economic rules; it's a soulless industry more than a medium for artistic creation; anime has become a product, not a work of art.
To this end, I urge us to take an interest in the different archetypes of men and women in anime.
There's nothing original anymore; everyone copies everyone else.
What changes is only the design and appearance of the character, but even the voice and facial expressions resemble each other.
The characters are nothing more than products with different tastes, like what you might find in a supermarket.
You want a tsundere? A good deal—how do you want it? Redhead? Blonde? More of a loli? Or a Milf? All of that already exists; the nuance and humanity of the characters is definitively dead.
Only a few works sometimes manage to emerge to offer something authentic, but they are rare, because time passes and good artists die or lose their souls.
One day, there will be no more bread or games, and only fools will eat the flies sold to them as meat.
