More like a mentally unwell hikikomori. Most otakus are benign and peaceful.

I never want to see another KyoAni. I’m glad they’re taking it seriously. The anime industry is very rough on it’s workers, they shouldn’t have to worry about their safety as well. 

Did they kill off a girl or something? Or is this a random threat kind of dumpster fire of a person?

I wish there was clear guidance on dealing with in-laws that think we’re “in the clear” because states are opening back up. They were wearing masks, socially distancing, buying curbside take out, etc. Then a switch flipped when stores started opening and they drove 300 miles to spend memorial day in a South Carolina…

Japan’s whole post-war economic miracle is even more amazing when you realize that the backbone of all their business dealings consists of overworked, sleep deprived middle aged men in suits drinking themselves stupid.

Lies! Propaganda! America has done the best job! America ALWAYS does the best job, at everything! Everyone else’s numbers are fake! Especially China!

One thing that’s starting to grate on me is the number of folks going on and on thanking us for still working and being open (as a bakery). Do not get me wrong, I understand that it’s coming from good intentions, and if it was just the regular polite thanks you’d say pre-COVID that’d be great!! What I don’t think that…

Growing up, I could never buy horror or disaster movies where people wilfully ignore an obvious crisis. It always broke my suspension of disbelief when characters wanted to reopen the beach, gawk at the monster, keep zombie grandma in their guest room, etc.

As someone who’s work is deemed essential I have not had a day off this year. From that perspective let me tell you that the people who are at work, wherever that may be and doing whatever it is they do, are all human and are all dealing with this shit in their own way. Some are obviously unhappy and genuinely afraid a…

This is seriously fucked up. Why aren’t they eligible for any government support? I mean, zoos always claim to be “for conservation”, surely that must entitle them to something? They’re just euthanizing innocent animals that had NO FUCKING REASON to be in that zoo in the first place, or feeding them to other animals?

A Trump supporter referring to another country’s government as being run by “thugs” is blatant projection 

They don’t even bother hiding it.  The Japanese name is Yuki-menoko.  And “menoko” is just the Ainu(Japanese indigenous people) word for “woman”, which is what “onna” also means.

The world of Pokemon in the Pokedex is far more weird, scary and interesting than the world made popular by the games and anime.

Agreed. A terrific article.  As mentioned by others, people like me watched this show because it was on TV. There was literally nothing else to watch and it became a de facto favorite because of it.  I assume everyone who watched it felt the same way.  Even as a young kid watching this, I was in on the “joke” that the…

Very nice article Gwen , I enjoyed it a lot. 

I was giggling at first but the leaning back while thrusting lead to guffaws.

He’s a pretty effective fighter, because I’m certainly dead over here.

If you came into this post and didn’t expect dicks, you’re probably gonna get fired from your job soon anyway.

...and I’m not sure how Bandai Namco could possibly go about removing them.

I can;t stop laughing at the Lizardman fight.
