I’m loving your choice of topics lately.
Ahm, I just have to say that Japan adds, yet another, service to make up for the loneliness and incapacity of relating among human beings its society is experimenting. I saw a documentary some time ago and I was left enough heartbroken....
and the problem is that people dont seem…

Totoro just drank 20 big cups of coffee

are they yanki

those “some” you speak of sound like people who has no clue about Japanese pop-culture or sub cultures at all. Why would Black Diamond care about them? It’s obvious they’ll always be a niche product. It’s not as if they are dreaming to be in the next Oscar red carpet or any other western super mainstream event...
People…

this obsession for a piece of cloth.
it’s almost cute (in a pitiful way)

the funny thing is that those teeth are considered extremely attractive in Japan
people get that as an actual teeth job

yanki is so dead tho. (SADLY) it’s only alive in sloppy TV dramas

One of my favorite topics... YAY!!!

omg.... how much are you going to keep reaching???

Love your assumptions.

I have several happy meal toys and I’ve have to dispute them with anyone...
and in any case, kicking kids seems easier and faster than spending hours lining up

in 50 years I’m sure that irrelevant Miyazaki will have more entries in the “history of anime” than the “bigger than ever” mediocrity rn

and I say this as the weird person who…

as long as japanese neckbeards but their waifu figures and merch they dont need anything else, they can be mediocre forever.
This is killing Japanese entertaiment in more than the animation area only.

Guilty Crown is horrible.

the best thing would be to develop the idea that Japanese culture is not solely the realm of the otaku.

he refers to asia for sure
