>>22831514 (OP)bro anime is just fucking built different okay where else can you watch the same dead-eyed high schooler named Haruto get absolutely flattened by a truck and wake up in the Kingdom of Granzreich Drachensteinburg where the king is named Reinhardt von Brandenwald Einzbergh Luxbourg Kirschstein the Third and everyone speaks katakana German while somehow also knowing what miso is and the second he arrives this socially stunted fuck starts revolutionizing society by introducing onions sauce and bath water to literal medieval peasants who live in stone huts but also have magic-powered vending machines and the party is always the same every fucking time it’s the 900-year-old elf girl who acts like a child and exists solely to say “ara ara” the tsundere knight whose armor is just steel lingerie and the obligatory comic relief slime named Bob who turns into a goddamn mecha by episode 9 and every character has a French-German-Anglo name like Celestia von Flügelheim or Emilia de Saint-Marie Bourbon but they still all bow politely and say itadakimasu before eating their anime stew and calling the main character onii-chan even though he’s a random guy who showed up two weeks ago and can now one-shot dragons using a fucking menu screen labeled “Fireball EX++ [JP only]” and of course he’s overpowered as shit but still blushes when a girl holds his hand like yeah bro you just nuked the Demon Pope with ramen noodles but you’ve never touched a tit in 300 episodes and season 2 always ends with him being crowned emperor of Latinkrautia or whatever the fuck and opening a maid café in a ruined cathedral like is this a joke is this performance art this is what the world thinks Japanese culture is now not Kurosawa not Mishima not Noh theater no it’s 500 flavors of some fucking teenager getting murdered by traffic and bringing onions sauce to feudal Europe while marrying twelve spirit wives and inventing convenience stores in a society that didn’t have plumbing.
