>retard who cannot segregate fiction from reality

Yeah, Japan tolerates pedophilia in media, and yet, it is 100% opposed to it in real life and its inclusion in media is not an endorsement. Westerners cannot segregate fiction from reality and their inclusion of pedophilia and homosexual in their media is often unsettling to most people because westerners tend to view fiction as a vehicle to manifest something in reality. An agenda, an endorsement. This is complete contrast with how the Japanese see it and you are an obvious westernoids because you aren't embarrassed by making such retarded comments. 1980s America was more tolerant of homosexual then modern day Japan is.

>>280353366
Anime studios need to make more of this, make more loli shows, more nudity, cute girls doing cute things, remind the general population that otakus are disgusting, that's the only way anime can be saved because that's the target audience that actually pay for stuff, case in point, solo leveling is in the red despite the popularity.

>>280353879
>Westerners cannot segregate fiction from reality and their inclusion of pedophilia and homosexual in their media is often unsettling to most people because westerners tend to view fiction as a vehicle to manifest something in reality.

You would think this is a popular opinion but the current political climate seems to think Indians and Chinese would do their job better. At least this is the case at Netflix.

https://www.techopse.com/netflix-report-reveals-how-its-improving-the-japanese-animation-industry/
>To shake things up, Netflix plans to demand invoices from the entire production chain, cutting out middlemen who just hike up costs. This should give investors a clearer view of where their money’s going, allowing them to insist on specific improvements. Netflix also brags about improving live-action standards, introducing privacy coordinators and encouraging a “harmonious” on-set environment.

Literally, they saw anime and their first reaction was "How can we stuff this medium with indians and chinamen?

>>280353810
>Is there really a lot of overlap between anime staff and diet members?
No, you Brainlet.

good morning SAAR

Are Americans actually so stupid that they think Japan is liberal? This is about as stupid as saying Japan is European. Liberalism is a philosophy that was invented by Western Europeans and only Europeans have liberal societies. One can argue that liberalism is the European God and religion because many westerners make assumption about our place in the universe based on ideas invented by enlightment philosophers who created liberalism. Almost every political conception in the west is based on liberalism, both your liberals and conservatives are liberals. Reactions to liberalism are considered extremism in your society, even ideologies that address the failings of liberalism are considered alien. For fuck sakes, Japan doesn't even have liberalism in its society, its only enforced by the post ww2 consensus and American power.

>>280353092
Depends on what you consider “liberal” Japan have universal health care, legalized interracial marriage almost a century before USA, offers Japanese language classes and textbooks for free for immigrants paid by taxes, etc.
about anime have the main couple from a popular shonen romantic comedy manga and anime from the 80s be a gay couple, have a gay man who usually performs in drag play the role of an attractive woman in a 1968 film who still is an influential celebrity today and voice anime characters both male and female. “liberal” and “conservative” doesn’t means the same things as in USA where politics, religion and society are grouped in left and right box.

>>280353961
>The people who think Cartoons are reality are mentally ill.
anime can influence people's minds, that's why they forced Isayama to change the ending of Attack on Titan

>>280353976
>Are Americans actually so stupid that they think Japan is liberal?
110%
They literally think any nation on Earth that is not living in its own mud and feces believes the most liberal of specifically-American progressive political worldview. So much so that you see the kneejerk reaction progs have in this very thread at the concept that a Nation that is socially conservative creating something since their version of the Commandments specifically dictate that Conservatives can't create.

Again all of this makes sense when you realize that the concept of "Liberalism" died over ten years ago in America and we're watching a fash movement puppet its face around.

>>280354023
>anime can influence people's minds

It wouldn't take much for these streaming services (Netflix/Disney/HBO/Apple/etc) to buy up or invest in the anime studio in japan to make more western friendly slop. I think that's the next step we're going to see over the next 10 years or so. No japanese media company can compete with American streaming giants who have tons of cash to burn, everyone will dance and censor their content for western sensibilities like Sony does with their games. The golden age of anime is coming to an end

>>280353092
>Muttmerican tries to fit Japan's politics into America's mold
This is why anime isn't a conservative hobby. You are unable to see the world through somebody else's perspective, which is vital when it come to make art.

Just how far past this chart have we taken it? There needs to be a part 2.

I just hate when Netflix takes a show cause they don't bother with bluray releases so shows like Dungeon Meshi stay in streaming purgatory. It doesn't happen often, a lot of Netflix anime is trash but sometimes a gem comes out.

>>280354197
>Marvel's Thor is a blond man, this comic has Thor be a black man. Both equally unfaithful to the myth
Yeah, you're just racist, bro.

>>280354242
Politics is objective, all human experiences and evolved behavior is "conservative", its the default natural state of humans. The existence of genetics is one giant middle finger to the assumptions of progressivism.

That is why the best art ever made by Westerners were made when the average man would be considered an extremists. It is why Japan makes better entertainment then the West.

>>280354185
What, you want me to say it's the Jews? It's the lizardmen? The banks? No, it's failed American Executives who have fucked EVERY SINGLE TENTPOLE of american entertainment because they are literally too big to fail.

Here's the timeline of how things went: These burgers fucked over Comic Books trying to turn it into a movie-money printing machine. All of their stories and writers left because the story and writing doesn't matter in a 2 hour long video game cutscene.

Then once the bottom fell out on that, they packed up and moved on to video games. We're just recovering from these companies losing big on the AAA games bubble popping. Now they are looking at Anime. You can fuck yourself if you think I won't be angry about watching the same thing that happened to all movies, all music, all video games, happening to the thing I've watched since I've been a kid in the 90s.

Fuck you, fuck your bodytype bullshit, fuck your attempts to consensus crack, and FUCK AMERICANS.

Thank fuck it didn't, if Netflix took over we would never get Baiser or her harem ever again. Assuming the author ever makes more volumes.

This is the same Netflix that did 4kidz edits to 30 year old shows https://censorship.fandom.com/wiki/Netflix and you think they would let a Looking Up to Magical Girls air on any network they own when their current output is this.

In reality and not your drugged up mind: remember when Americans at crunchyroll pissed and screamed because they snapped up the Ishuzoku Reviewers anime and IMMEDIATELY dropped it because none of them watch anime, none of them read manga, and they don't even do cursory looks at the licenses they pick up? Just smash and grab everything?

The reality is that Anime will change to fit Netflix and Crunchyroll's tastes so they get picked up. That's what bringing American money in actually means: They assume control of what gets made.

>>280353479
>no westernized adaptations
bruh Power Rangers was in the fucking 90s
and Voltron years before that

>>280354446

>>280354446
>How come it didn't? Must be a miracle!

NTA but you have an IQ of a fruit fly and don't get that some does not equal all.
Some anime still getting made that isn't picked up doesn't mean that they won't censor all the anime they pick up. You made that jump in your head.

>>280354446
>How come it didn't? Must be a miracle!
Literally circumstance, look who made the anime:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asahi_Production
Literally the only reason it got picked up was because Asahi made it. Scroll down to the bottom: Notice all those independent studios, those are the ones Netflix are looking into buying up

Otaku days are numbered. They're already purchasing these studios in small numbers and it'll only ramp up from here. There will come a point where there is no purpose producing anything that doesn't have a chance at being snapped up by Netflix. Why? Because this happened to Comic Books and Movies. The Streaming Slop directly killed the movie theaters because going anywhere except direct to streaming was a losing endeavor.

>>280354505
>>280354558
This is that on Steroids. Saban never had any interest in acquiring Toei nor did they want to be a Japanese company. The Israelite instead just wanted to cut and snip the parts away that were Japanese.

Netflix entering will be like if Toei stopped making anything past 1995 and just became a Sentai studio.

>>280354623
This sounds like a lot of insane reaching and doomer posting.

>>280354547
This
Derivative media like movies, tv shows, anime adaptations, etc will always attract the lowest common denominator by default
The same people who wouldn't pick up a book because they need "movement" "color" or "voices" otherwise their peanut brains cannot stay focused
Go directly to the source material and the casuals just filter themselves while you actually get a better overall experience because you don't have to deal with bad adaptations, budgets, suits making stupid choices, censorship and all sorts of issues that arise as a consequence of catering to those very same normies creating a vicious cycle of decay

>>280354547
I don't know if you remember the ancient days of 2019 but Marvel Movies taking off killed Marvel Comics for the same reason Netflix Anime taking off will kill Manga: The purpose of Manga will be to act as story support for Netflix anime.

>only three shows on the list that aren't sequels (and one of them is some gay youtube thing i had to look up)
yeah, anime has never been better

>>280354706
No, at least not immediately. Comic Books were just the Big 2 and all independent sources up until the Marvel Movie craze happened in the 00s. The independent sources died off first, because they were not making Marvel Movies, then Marvel died because they had no competition.

Manga isn't made for hte purposes of anime, it's the other way around. But that may change if American investment money gets involved.

>>280354730

What a bunch of pretentious bullshit. And you are the supposedly civilized society.
You are pretty much implying that our actions and behaviours are not different from a wild animal which acts based off of instincts.
Humans have reached this far exactly for it's pursuit of progress. Why send a man on the moon when that man did not evolve on space?

Also, Japan makes better entertainment than the West simply because it doesn't care to cater to anybody's sensibilities. That's why anime is so appealing and has so much variety. They were doing homosexuality on anime when Americans were shitting their pants at Pokemon for being satanic and animal abusive
If a western animation studio attempted to make some gay shit, accusations of "woke" would be falling upon them. But, under your logic, that would make them extremist, and extremist make better art than anybody else. Am I wrong?

Most of anime is adaptions of manga or light novels at this point so until they start going after those industries then nothing significant will change.

And Koreans are spreading their censorship standard like pic rel to Japanese anime, and Pro Korea TV stations in Japan like Fuji and TBS is gladly accepting them for Korea Japan relation and cultural trade. And Aniplex and crunchyroll is cooperating on this shit. To blame China, only 20% of animes per season are aired in Bilibili. Chinks cannot watch netflix nor prime.
Vigilante, Nigoriri, Rezero S3, 9nine are not aired in China, but heavily censored. Which shows that Korean corpos must have spread poison to Japanese TV station. Kakao has 15% of Kadokawa stock.

Yeah. I see Korean censorship standard spreading to Japanese anime by CJ, Kakao lobbying Jap TV stations, and Jap TV station kneels to Korean overlord for Japan-Korea relation and cultural trade, and accept Korean sensitivity standard to anime with Japanese watch. And Aniplex and crunchyroll is cooperating on this shit.
To blame China, only 20% of animes per season are aired in Bilibili. Chinks cannot watch netflix nor prime.
To blame west, BRS dawnfall, heavenly delusion, Bastard, 4 knights of apocalypse, JoJo, dragon's dogma anime has lots of nudity.

Vigilante, rezero S3, 9nine and Nigoriri got heavily censored spite not being aired on bilibili. Why?

This is the end. Good times are over.

i mean, netflix has the convenience to stop where you left at because sitting through an entire episode is such a hassle so you can watch half of it and then finish watching after spending your day having a social life unlike those weirdos basement-dwelling weebs who you're definitely not one of them. also netflix remind you which episode you already watch instead of keeping a mental note where you at or bookmark it or keep notes in you computer because why would you? you're not a nerd, you're not weird! computers are for gaming and calling out chuds on X

>>280355497
I read an interesting theory about how Yugioh cards are still censored, despite the playbase being mostly guys in their 20s and 30s. It was because of the timing of the Korean cards. They are printed right after or maybe during the English cards, so they censor the arts for Korea. And to get the money out of that, the English release also gets the censored art too like a trickle down effect. I don't know how true that is, but it wouldn't surprise me.
Also I'm 99% certain Konami NA simply hates its customers, so they made do it partly out of spite too.

>>280354262

Kind of too late for that anon. It's going to have to run it's course until people become tired. This is not Americans watching Netflix, think of India, Mexico, China, South Korea. Basically Anime companies are trying to cater to that market. This goes beyond the West, and sadly catering to China and South Korea is already like catering to the West already.

ANON Chinese and South Korean shit is basically no different than the Western stuff. China invented DEI. Stop being retarded.

or maybe it autoplays after some movie they watched
or they're like this is what that popular new movie is based on!
theres also those fags out there that will watch one single show and consider themselves anime fans and its alway sshit like MHA

Streaming gives no proper data like tv networks do so anyone can over blow just how popular something really is. Its about the same as youtube views. A Japanese spokesmen mentioned awhile back how they can't tell if these streaming shows are even popular because they gave no proper data on who's watching what. We also already know you can buy views and likes so for all we know, someone could be AI mining shows to use for their AI.

And before someone post some shitty streaming popularity chart as "data". TV network ratings system pulls from age, race, gender, nationality, sexuality, religion, number of kids, occupation, married, divorced, single, school, pretty much everything about you as they can then pin point who's watching what at any given time.

I think this is the main reason why they're trying to force ID checks on everything. All this shit became a problem once Chinese and Indians came into the market. Flooding reviews and popularity charts and sites while bots try to trick retards into thinking how popular some literal who chinkshit anime is.

>>280358911
In reality anyone against gatekeeping wants the fandom to die of aids. It's a much quicker death than the opposite extreme, where gatekeeping is so successful the fandom literally dies with that generation of fans after a long period of stagnation. Think baby boomer car collectors for a rare example of over gatekeeping.
But the thing about stagnation is at least a fandom into Ducks will still be into something that looks/sounds/smells like a Duck as it circles the toilet into the great beyond over the course of decades. But flood a hobby with normalfags? Two or three years later they won't even know what a Duck is.

>he didn't know
tl;dr yes
do you ever wonder how anime studios managed to somehow keep themselves afloat despite the infamously expensive and stressful nature of anime production? (hint: it's government funding)

>>280359059
Gatekeeping works mostly when it's done against groups with very specific traits. See how effortlessly a lot of fandoms gatekeep Nazis. Overall though, I think a balance is needed. As well as a willingness to let something die on it's own terms rather than drag it out for a unnaturally long lifespan.

>>280359059

Anyway, there are things like anime originals. Not all anime are adaptations of manga or light novels.

normies will only ever watch shonenshit so all the other genres are safe

What the FUCK are you all bitching and moaning about? They're making mostly the exact same kind of anime that they've been making for the last 15 years.
Light Novel adaptation that never gets a season 2? Still there
Battle shonen adaptation? Still there
Ecchi comedy? Check
Romcom? Check
Cute girls doing cute things slice of life? In spades

There's been some major shifts in how things get produced and we don't get much original shows anymore due to how risk averse things have become, but otherwise it's all the same fucking shit. This thread reads like it came from some alternate reality where the industry turned into some MCU farm or something. I swear a chunk of you just like to bring your grievances with American media everywhere you go even where it doesn't apply.

China? But only 20% of anime per season are aired in bilibili via China and only these 20% are affected by Chinese censorship. How can Chinks watch anime which are not aired in bilibili? Chinks cannot access prime, netflix, U+,D+,Hulu, Abema, and Crunchyroll.
That's why I am blaming Korea to explain ones not on bilibili such as Rezero S3, Vigilante, Nigoriri being heavily censored even than ones on bilibili like Roshidere and Witch watch which had fanservice scene intact. And China has no feminist so they don't crack loli lewds, unlike Chosenjing(朝鮮人).

How can Chinese watch anime which are not aired in bilibili? No way that China can access Oshi no Ko(child pregnancy) and Gquuuux(for glorifying delinquent). And Ironic that vigilante is not aired in China for glorifying criminals, but got censored. It must be Korean overlords poisoning the well.

Anime list of bilibili looks quite empty.
How can China censor animes which are not available in their nation?
Korea airs over 90% of anime so Korean corpos like Kakao and CJ can easily enforce their censorship standard to Japanese anime.

Chinks cannot use netflix, prime, Crunchyroll and Abema... since ones not being aired in China are being censored heavily like Rezero S3(gore), Vigilante(glorifying criminal), Nigoriri.
It must be Korea which airs over 90% of anime.
Chink censorship is like sniper rifle(single target) while Korean censorship is like grenade(splash damage).

Must be worst Korea spreading their censorship standard to Japanese anime by CJ and Kakao lobbying Jap TV stations and anime studio.

I agree bout Korea tho, due to their massive influence on Japan by Hallyu, more influence than China or West.

I agree. But maybe they're afraid that anime starts if it hasn't already censoring/removing content to appease to the west like what's happening with vidya due to payment processors or turn into generic slop with shit-quality art & themes (I'm talking about something similar to the west with the whole tumblr-bean mouth-esque shows with not-so-subtle reference of modern day American politics, not necessarilly mentioning them, but the kind of things that happen in some subs or translations). But overall, the only annoying things related with anime in the west now are e-celebs, their irony-poisoned fans and western """""anime""" wich is a poor imitation of the real thing, but with shitty animation & writing (imagine writing something worse than an isekai). I think this is another one of those threads that wants to either demoralize, talk about xitter politics or both.

Well, unless you become 100% fluent in Japanese, which is not something that a lot of people have the money or time to do, you have to keep your eyes glued to the screen at all times in order to follow the story, which makes it nearly impossible to do even basic tasks like eating while watching, or at least not without making a mess.

You can rest assured that they will never make major changes to appease the "west". The only reason they did this with some videogames is because the western AAA companies fooled everyone into thinking they were the center of the world. With anime though, especially otaku stuff, the full product line is something contained in Japan that will likely not make it out of Japan for a long time. As in, they have to appeal to their own based because that is that base that also purchases all the tie ins that truly make things profitable. Stuff like figures, all those random promos, the manga the anime advertises etc. Not to mention that it is a lot more affordable for more niche studios to push out their stuff only in the home market.

Stuff like "Loli-chan really really likes to take baths" won't be changed unless they happen to get paired with a shitty studio who is overly cautious. What you might actually see changing is perhaps stuff like the huge battle shonen. Those things have their product lines internationally and thus may simply opt to appeal to the bigger audience. Then again though, the guys behind it know that the Japanese elements are part of the success. There is also vested interests in the Japanese government and other groups to keep the export of their culture flowing. Not to mention that the west is pretty rapidly rejecting the shitty stuff.

tldr: The anime industry is in a safer place than videogames. The most you might see is occasionally a "west" pandering mass appeal show.

Haven't people been fear mongering over this for like a decade now? I remember seeing people say this back in like 2014 and it still hasn't happened yet.

It doesn't matter how fast you can read if there are multiple characters yapping back and forth for several minutes, like in slice-of-life anime.

As soon as you finish reading, you only have a few seconds to take a bite of food before someone else chimes in, but often times you're too late in doing so, and you have to read their dialogue as quickly as you can again.

The cycle repeats, and before you know it, an hour has passed, and you've barely touched your food, which is now cold, or you tried eating while reading the subs and you end up covered in grease or sauce from all the food that fell off your utensil and onto your shirt and/or pants.

Maybe you are fine with having to constantly switch your attention between eating and reading subs, but I prefer to mindlessly stuff my face without making too much of a mess while I watch TV and eat.

>>280381752
To be fair, Heinlein himself said he didn't fit the exact definition of a Libertarian and that a more accurate label for him would be "philosophical anarchist" or "autarchist", but the term "libertarian" was "easier to explain and fit well enough."

Philosophical anarchism is an anarchist school of thought which focuses on intellectual criticism of authority, especially political power, and the legitimacy of governments.

Autarchism is a political ideology that promotes the principles of individualism and the moral ideology of individual liberty and self-reliance. It rejects compulsory government, and supports the elimination of government in favor of ruling oneself to the exclusion of rule by others.

Easier to multitask. I can only watched subbed anime if I'm not busy doing anything else. Also dub feels more authentic if it's a story taking place in an anglophone country like England or the US, though I do get annoyed when the dub cast doesn't even try to put on UK accents for shows taking place in the former.

Anime is a creative process. That last 5% exists only because of that 95% pool of trash where studios can pick out the talented and elevate them.
Hollywood cut off that 95% in favor of massive blockbuster hits and also cut off it's legs and why it cannot stop sucking dicks.

>Marvelization is coming
Nah. Disney has tanked Pixar, and Dreamworks is flip flopping between good and bad movies. I doubt anyone in Japan would tolerate getting purchased by a large studio just to get fired and replaced with wokies who toe the company line.

The only reason normies are fleeing to anime is it's not total woke shit. It might be bland shit, or shonen shit, but its not woke shit. So it's way more tolerable. Eventually some studio will rise from the ashes of Disney and friends to take over and make decent content again, and the normies will go back. It just will be a while for some fresh crew to get their shit together.

nigger I can still watch a season or two every few years, this is a passive hobby that demands near 0 effort or time investment to enjoy unless you're a full on otaku (no shame in that, especially if you made the effort to learn moonrunes).

Manga is hyper popular in certain foreign countries (West EU, SEA etc) but you don't see them suddenly start to aim content exclusively for those markets, even frenchfags had to resort to manfra to get a local fix and jap sales heavily outweigh manfra in France.

Most anime directors worth a damn with actual say in the medium would have been crucified in American medium had they been working over in America.
Yoshiyuki Tomino was both viciously anti-war as well as pro-mixed race relationships. Hell, in 1999 he made a Gundam anime with a black main character who wears dresses and has two men that are sexually interested in him, one of them explicitly sexually interested in him as a closeted gay man.
Kawamori over on Macross was even more progressive with his usage of idol culture in anti-war stories, and beat Tomino to the mixed-race punch in 1983 with an explicitly black on white sexual relationship in Macross.
Go back to the 60s and 70s and you already had staff highly critical of Imperial Japan and relishing the freedom from it they now had. Tetsuwan Atom (Astro Boy) did plenty of stories on racism and classism right there in the 60s, Cyborg 009 had a (very American inspired) black character in its main cast despite Japan NOT HAVING BLACK PEOPLE, works like Ashita no Joe were highly critical of how Japanese society had spurned the post-war generation and the treatment of the youth and the cast-outs by government bodies, and so on and so on.

Anime has been intensely progressive for decades.

>>280395216
Cyborg 009 was a Tintin in the Congo situation. Having black people in your story means nothing if they look like racisr caricatures. You guys are so retarded. Tomino is an ardent anti feminist in every single anime he made from Zambot 3 to Brain Powerd. He also believed in the JQ.

>Tomino is an ardent anti feminist in every single anime he made from Zambot 3 to Brain Powerd.
Actually retarded.
His works at the time were also very progressive in regards to women as well, people just see the scene where Mirai gets slapped or go "lol Katejina" and call it a day, while ignoring that both Zeta and Victory are works about how MEN ultimately manipulate and destroy women for person gain. Victory especially is written off as an anti-feminist work because a lot of women die in it, when its ultimate conclusions are that men with petty pride and egos are the cause of all that death and destruction.

008 is kinda weird in that he's a pretty serious and intelligent character and nobody treats him as a joke, but for whatever reason Ishinomori still chose to draw him as a caricature.

>>280397051
I was satisfied with it before 2010 when we had lolicon series being made. Desperation started to sink in slowly but now I'm mostly just disillusioned.

>>280395416
You have ZERO media literacy. Tomino condemns women and mothers in the workforce. Please explain how Kamille's mom is a feminist character. Or his emphasis on including Emma's death too. Tomino is NOT subtle as can be seen in the Christmas card scene from Brain Powerd. It doesn't matter that he's a minor character he said the Jews control America. That's not progressive.

/a/ was full of gen x and millenials who took the Angrynerd approach to anime not knowing how good they had it at the time. Something like Hyouka will never get released today but back then it was just 1 mark in a stacked year.

Right. People say Tomino was progressive but he had to apologise for his depictions of Koreans, his outward hatred of women got him subjected to years of anti-Tomino brigading on /a/ by Miyazaki(and other auteurfags). Even something like his portrayal of Africa is not progressive where people drawn in racist caricatures randomly drop to the floor in islamic prayer.

>>280397207
>Tomino condemns women and mothers in the workforce.
What Tomino condemns is war and the direct consequences it has on women and forcing them into roles of conflict that then reverberate onto their children.
>It doesn't matter that he's a minor character he said the Jews control America.
He said they controlled Hollywood. That wasn't even a conspiracy theory at the time, it was a common talking point and joke of the era that only because something you can't talk about in recent times with the ADL.

>>280397378
Tomino is a sexist, so sexist you see redditor neolibs calling him sexist.

>>280397224
Considering that he did try to address the problem by changing 008's design from Legend of the Super Galaxy and onward, I don't think Ishinomori was a racist. At least not in the sense that he was trying to do so intentionally.

>>280397378

>>280397500
Anime is largely a medium made by socially conservative japs, some progressives like anime but cant socially detach from the idea that the thing they like was made by bigots and so they then attempt rewrite history but luckily its pretty easy to disprove their talking points. Yes anime does have some progressive ideas, I wont even deny that but often those ideas are through a very very fantastical worldview which is fetishized by straight japanese men (yuri for ex) that doesnt apply to real life and representation is applied in almost caricature like fashion which if made in the states would likely lead to said show being canned. There is some progressive japanese actually but they dont really exist in anime, go read more manga.

>>280397557

You do not understand what this actually means. Basically they got suspicious of certain foreigners (Catholics) so to control them they forced all Europeans to trade in a single port. They still had decent relationships with the Dutch, who they were not suspicious of. It did not mean they had no connections with foreigners or hated then all. They just made trade extremely restricted to control what they thought could be foreign invaders.

Modern day Japan is still the third largest economy. They are not going to close down and restrict trade cause it will hurt Sony and Nintendo's bottom line.

They didn't. But they were the first to launch a paid streaming platform and they are still the largest, so that gives them a lot of clout as well as the money to produce new anime for more subs.

>>280395340
Almost all of this is inaccurate. You sound like a retard that is basing your post off of how you misremember fansubbing. This isn't manga translations where groups are scared of stepping on each other's toes, people subbed shit regardless of other groups subbing it. And releasing only in avi?

>>280399141
Yes because if you have any unpaid medical bills upon entry you cannot enter. I assume 90% of americans do kek. If you want to use the medical system you now have to pay into it, you do not get free gibs for being on a student visa or whatever other tourist/temp visa. So if I theoritcally have unpaid medical bills from an illness and my hospital cucked me now upon entering japan I cant get access to shit unless I pay for it or I can be revoked the right to entry. None of this applies to jp citizens, this a purely hostile bill against foreigner.

These articles all describe a bill to discourage the medical equivalent of dibe and dash ie foreign visitors who gobtova hospital and leave without paying. Simultaneously the LDP will make more foreigners aware of their obligation to pay insurance premiums, which come in the form of an invoice. Foreigners are not gonna be barred from the Japanese healthcare system, they are just making sure foreigners cover the expenses by either mandatory insurance or reminding them of their obligations.

You know whats truly funny about anime legit becoming mainstream and fully taking over western comics/animation/culture&etc. EVEN THO EVEN FUCKING THO manga sales are up over 9000% year after year since the 2010's. Fucking Japanese companies are still being completely fucking retarded. (((Parahasidic))) localization companies TRANSlating manga are charging even fucking more for shitty soft covers right. All a Japanese company needs to do is open a god damn western subsidiary in like Canada. You know to take care of translation(which takes like no time, its fucking manga not a novel/vidya every chapter takes 5-15mins) publishing and distribution. You would only need a few employees plus you could offer your services to other japanese publishers because even if they are competition, fucking none of them care about outside of Japan.They just charge a tiny ass fee to pick up a series. most dont even ask for a % of sales on top of paying for the rights.

PLUS setting up shit digitally for an app to view manga of old/currently serilized titles as well as the magazine.

Would take fuck all effort you could charge 10-20$ a month and it would get subscriptions in the millions. Yet its only since covid companies are starting to look into this IN FUCKING JAPAN they are realizing hey wait.These other magazines&companies offering digital manga for free &or small fee are making money pushing sales and their series are doing well. Maybe we should be doi-NOU BOOMER-KAMI-SAMA MUSTU BEU INU CHARGEU OFU EVERYTHINGU
NO DIGITAL NO WEBSITEU NO APLUCATIENTIONS NO SMARTUPHONES PROGRAMUS. NO FILTHY WESTERN IDEASU OR TECHNOLOGYU INU OURU COMPANYU. MANAGMENT MUSTU BEU THE SAMEU PEOPLEU FOREVER WHENU SOMEONEU RETIRES WE RETIREU THAT POSITION IF THE ONLY PERSON WHO CAN FILL IT IS UNDER 45.

>>280399698
That literally barrs those foreigners, that's my point and thats why this bill exists because you had thousands of them doing exactly what you just described.

>It's subtitling, there is no fighting.
Hey retard, the GROUP fought over specific anime. Rather than ten groups subbing ten+ different anime, it was ten groups going after the biggest show of the moment. That was the issue.
(Also, people DID fight over which subs you chose).
>Every fansub group wants to do a series in their entirety, not starting off from where some incompetent fuck left off.
And the point was that they accomplished fucking nothing and wasted their time and space on the internet.
>Only for ancient anime or shonenshit.
Nah, pretty much any anime was fair game for this. Only today is this true.
>Not remotely true.
A good chunk of the groups that existed were guys going "Yeah I know Japanese, I can do this" and then making a release where all the text was flat generic fonts.
>Not remotely true. You can even check this.
It was true. You can check this.
>Never true. At worst, it'd be 40% and that was rare. Someone was always willing to sub the shittiest shit out there.
Dude, you're making shit up. There are still shows from as late as like 2010 that haven't been subbed, like Ring ni Kakero. Hell, mega popular shit like Pokemon just never got subbed past episode 80 until recently.
>You're bitching about having choice earlier, and now you're bitching because the one sub group you don't like made shitpost subs. Your problem.
Again you dense retarded LARPer who would be put down like a dog in any normal society, the issue was that MOST GROUPS would focus on the SAME SHOW.
>So you're mad because you didn't download a show when it got subbed and was relevant.
No, a guy ups his episode and then stops seeding the literal next day. That was extremely common.

Just completely refusing to not even look outside the box but not even looking at the box anymore. Thinking shit has never changed Japan is still in the late 80's early 90's.

So much money to be made for a long ass time and these fucking parasite boomers refused to fucking even accknowledge anime&manga is popular outside of Japan. Minus a few companies taking investment from China because they were hurting for money.

Japanese boomers will do anything in their power to keep a company from evolving and fucking worse of all.Allowing anyone young into management or true power. Yet companies will cry they are hurting for funds, we are making less money from ads oh its no fair the price to print has gone up yet we can hardly raise the costs of manga/magazines. WHAT RELEASING SHIT ON THE INTERNET THATS STUPID there is no money releasing manga on the internet how will we make money from ads. EVERYONE WILL STEAL OUR PRODUCT. Sales wouldn't jump 6000001% if we created an app for our magazine and simultaneously released our product in english french spanish and huehue. Translating a chapter of manga every week/month would take hours! and cost so much money!!

Like srsly free money 5-20$ a month with or without ads. All from translating their series and doing a little redrawing which assistants can shit out in 30mins.

Fucking Japanese boomers man, making the coutnry suffer so much. Making everyone under the age of 40 suffer because their company is stuff in the past. And every boomer needs to be fired for having no modern skills let alone understanding how basic shit works. Instead they hold japan back and cry how no one is ghaving families refusing to raise wages or get people to invest in japan because of how backwater they have become being so far behind even some third world countries

>>280353545
That's not liberal.
Ah fuck it, the whole thread's political anyway:
"Liberal" in America (and the wider West) means two things:
first is political liberalism, which is politics aimed at protecting the rights of individuals to live their lives however they want, different streams of liberalism offer different ways here (the big question is how much rights private organizations like corporations should have, with some liberals arguing that they are no different than states while libertarians think otherwise). Trains, healthcare etc. isn't necesarily an issue in that kind of liberalism, and it's not an opposite to conservativism.
The other "liberalism" is just and alternative name for the left-wing alliance. Remember: Left and Right are not really ideologies or something, they are the dominant political alliances between various political and social groups that formed because their main issues don't conflict/compliment each other/their opponents are already on the other side. That's what left (nicknamed liberal) and right (nicknamed conservative) really are. The site on which some issues land on is often designated by historical circumstances. I think it's not too hard to see an alternate America were the Left is primarily against gun-control and the Right all for it (to prevent "thugs" from having them) - things happened otherwise.
It's also the big reason social groups like Blacks vote Democrat, even though their not overly progressive: the other site has the Klan.
But always remember that they are alliances, and as actually liberal people had to bitterly realize: the dominant forces might change, and the Woke killed most political liberalism within the Left.

Ah, but those were part of the Left from day one. Originally Left-Right just meant how much monarchy you wanted, because Marxism/Communism/whatever is inherrently anti-monarchist and pro-republican it immediatelly ended up with the Left, which it - at least in Europe - swiftly dominated (because worker's rights and that jazz - that was a time when protesting against dangerous work conditions got you shot).
An interesting idea: the monarchy-republic divide already had a rat tail of consequences: kings are traditional and traditionalist people sided with the right, religiously open people went to the left because it was a better atmosphere for them to work in etc. Without communism I think it's not impossible that the Left could have ended up being aggressively capitalist, with the Right being the more anti-capitalist ones (christian values and such).
