I guess I'm a glutton for punishment because y'all have given me a mountain of recommendations for Anime/Manga to check out and having insomnia helps to get extra reading/watching tv time. I enjoy having so many shows to watch and mangas to read but I was wondering if anyone could recommend any that are western themed or were inspired by westerns. I guess something like 7 Samurai would work since that inspired Magnificent 7.

Also, so far it seems like anime/manga fans do the best job at gatekeeping. I say this because I see the most pushback against whiners about representation or "sexualization". I frequently see feminists hacks whining about pushback amongst amine fans when they want to have a discussion about the male gaze or something. I've reached the point to where I think anyone bringing up such topics should be weeded out immediately because they are poison for fandoms. As I always say, imagine how gaming would be if Zoe Quinn or Anita Sarekessian had been told to pound sand from day one.
