Well, technically it IS anime but it’s diverging in an incredibly interesting way.

Just call it genetic enhancement and cherry pick genes without overtly offending anyone.

Is this a web series yet? It needs to be. It’s awesome.

Uhh, hold on. If I had a girl friend and just had an orgy at my parent’s house only to find that the local, impoverished, loser nobody with a telephoto lens had just snapped pictures of my date undressing in a window from the cover of a forest and bushes, I would have destroyed his damn camera too.

Actually the original comment was about criticizing the author for “sorta” equating tom boyish behavior with the term “badass”. It sounds like the person making the criticism wants to establish a notion of badassery that is independent of male behavior.

Damn. I dunno if this bridge is part of the conspiracy but I heard once that certain East Coast bridges were purposely built low so as to prevent buses from being able to access certain highways and freeways. This was straight up a Jim Crow kind of thing since when these bridges and overpasses were constructed, most…

Um. Nope, can’t agree. Shows like these are so popular because the creators have pulled off the neatest trick in story telling: appealing to multiple niches. Sure Adventure Time appeals to kids and so does Ren and Stimpy and Stephen Universe and Invader Zim. That’s one of their goals. Same with Looney Toons. But you…

Cowboy Beebop was not only a turning point in the popularity of anime in general it remains to this day to be one of the best story series I’ve ever experienced in anime or sci fi (and that includes live action).

Sorry, I’m dumb. Zim was 90's.

Invader Zim!

Don’t listen to those snobs. Like whatever you like for whatever reason you want to like it. At the same time, listening reasoned arguments of others for liking or disliking something can lead to deeper understanding, greater appreciation, and exploration of new things you might not have otherwise discovered. These…

Thinking you can do a deep dive of culture through anime is like saying you can learn how to shoot a gun from action movies or how to fight from karate and kung fu flicks. It’s at best naive.

Well hold on there a second. Why should Japan be inclusive?

First off. Let’s please all just admit that so far almost none of the live action movie anime movie adaptations (at leas the ones with action scenes, sci fi or fantasy) has ever come close to being as good as the animes with maybe two exceptions (Old Boy and Ichi the Killer and Old Boy is Korean so I’m not sure it…

I know how we can have our cake and eat it too... Icon could be all ninja style, cover up from head to toe and then systematically and secretively destroy all Southern weapons and major manufacturing capabilities and then assist with the already effective blockades and disable their ships and ports. Then maybe destroy…

Well, he’d actually have to kill like three people now so...

Wait, really? Jews experience peaceful coexistence where? Jews have been victimized and abused just about everywhere they’ve ever gone. They didn’t become magically targeted as scapegoats just because of the Nazis. Christians and Muslims have always given them a hard time.

Actually more than a few Native Americans I’ve known call black people “white”. There were definitely cases of tribes allowing escaped slaves to integrate but you can’t be sure it was all like “anti honkey brothers” back in the day. If you ain’t part of a first people tribe, then you’re an outsider, an interloper or…

Ugh. Seriously? I know some of them wave flags on occasion but how exactly are you going go “over there” and “beat up all the bad guys”? Are they to wave at you? Will they shoot at you and that’s how you know?

Actually I wouldn’t kill Hitler as a baby or an adult. He was charismatic as hell and intelligent but he was no strategist. In fact, one of the reasons he lost the war was because he stopped listening to his very experienced generals. If a more capable leader had taken his place then a lot more allies would have died.…
