The lockdowns sure helped.

I randomly got recommended a fansubbed video of Inugami Korone in 2020 during lockdown, I found myself wondering "How is this woman so endearing?" and I've been down the rabbit hole ever since.

The last one ended with a score of 8-5, which can be read in Japanese as ya-go.

Sports are fake.

I'll be back when they're released to feed you your words.

Not a perfect analogy, I agree. Vince was a total scumbag--just because he likes Trump doesn't make him a good person.

I seriously started watching AEW because he was so bad near the end.

It's all a feint.

This will drive up demand for the release of the Epstein Files, thus creating even bigger of a splash when they are released.

Trump is friends with Vince McMahon. How do you build hype for an event? By tantalizing viewers over time. Roman Reigns held the title for THREE YEARS, arguably one year longer than necessary, just so the next guy would become a star when he beat him--and that wound up being Cody Rhodes.

Strategy.

But talking sense doesn't get you upvotes. Panic does.

Briar-patching.

He's driving up demand for release of the Epstein Files.

Trump never set foot on Epstein's island.

Kenji Urada rolls in his grave.

Correction: Urada was the second known fatality caused by a robot. Robert Williams was the first.

Just think how great it'll be in five years! It'll replace any human endeavor!

Is it wrong that I feel awful for people like this?

Tricked so badly that they mutilate themselves, just as I was once tricked into leftism because I was so naive about how the world worked.

It's preaching conservative principles in a positive light and that's not enough because it has black people in it.

This is why we lose.

"This is the most pro-Trump show there's been in years!"

"Don't care. It has black people in it."

This is why we lose.

Anime took the reverse path.

1950s: Osamu Tezuka stuff, like Tetsuwan Atom/Astro Boy. Stiff and choppy compared to what came later.

1960s: Mach GoGoGo/Speed Racer. Not much more animated than the above, but in color.

1970s: Space Battleship Yamato/Star Blazers and Mobile Suit Gundam. Stiff in places, especially early on, but the evolution was showing.

1980s: Akira, Gunbuster. Katsuhiro Otomo's movie and Hideaki Anno's six-episode OVA revolutionize the medium, and still look amazing today.

1990s: Neon Genesis Evangelion. Hideaki Anno and Studio Gainax somehow turn limitations into art that has endured for 30 years. I came into it only two years ago, yet it now may be my favorite anime of all time. Sailor Moon and (most of) Dragon Ball Z less so, but only because Toei forced them to do one episode a week, EVERY week, 52 weeks a year, like they still do with One Piece today.

2000s: Gurren Lagann. The last hurrah for Studio Gainax before it all went to hell for them and so many split to form Studio Trigger, but at least they went out with the biggest of bangs.

2010s: Kill la Kill and anything else done by Studio Trigger. Also anything done by Kyoto Animation...which is why I'm still so pissed that Shinji Aoba murdered 36 of them in his arson attack.

2020s: Still ongoing, can't make a judgment here yet, especially since I haven't seen so much of the new stuff yet, including Freiren.

To think the only studio that seems to hire Trump supporters (and actors with some perspective about the job) is Sentai Filmworks, a non-union anime dub studio in Houston.

For you old-school otaku, they used to be ADV.

So, while "showing signs of collapse?"

I'd show you proof you said that, but you'd sperg out again about "a fucking screenshot."

Genndy may be the last creator to understand the power of silence.

Also a major reason I loved Evangelion.

One of the few games to perfectly capture Zelda kicking ass while still being feminine was, oddly enough, Hyrule Warriors.

Given about 20% of all dollars ever were printed in the last six years, you'd better get on that.

Go on.

Get to it.

So you want house-of-cards fiat backed by nothing and which will endlessly inflate until worthless.

We had zero inflation until 1913.

Zero.
