Richest country problems

Out of control debt...

Out of control inflation...

Massive unemployment and homeless...

This country ain't rich.

totally lost their capacity for pattern recognition and identifying deception.

It's more like realizing that the NPC meme is real and they never had those capacities to begin with.

already proven in court to have shot in self-defence.

The goal of communists is to make you dependent on the state for everything.

Food.

Energy.

Self defense.

They are working to control the means of production for food and energy. They'll make self defense illegal, a service that can only be provided by the state run police for citizens with a positive social credit score.

According to TV Guide, Stargate SG-1 is free on Pluto. Don't give money to Bezos!

The robot dog chasing away other humans stood out to me. Did the AI write the script too?

Seems like sinister messaging. Other humans bad. Trust only your robot companion.

I dunno about the anime, but RWBY had a really good mobile deckbuilding game that died horribly because they didn't know how to monetize it properly.

I wasn't aware they had a Myspace ripoff or the CP aspect. Not surprising after what's been going on in the world these past few years.

Crunchyroll got its start as a bootleg anime streaming site. After establishing itself as the place to for anime online they used that clout to go legit.

Of course they don't want you watching pirate sites. Gotta stamp out the competition while they're still small.

My experience with anime reboots:

1- Watched Fate/Stay Night Unlimited Blade Works TV. The movie version wasn't bad but TV is better.

2- Skipped Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood. It's supposedly more faithful to the manga, but I enjoyed the first adaptation and never read the manga so that's not really a selling point for me.

3- Watched Kino's Journey -the Beautiful World- the Animated Series because most of the episodes were stories that weren't included in the first adaptation, so it's more like a new season than a remake.

4- Watched the 2006 version of Kanon because I didn't know there was a 2002 version. Haven't seen a compelling reason to go back and watch the original.

5- Skipped the Berserk golden age movies. From the title I get the impression it's a remake of the original TV series, so meh. I'd expect the animation to be improved, but TV is just a better format for long story arcs.

6- Haven't seen the new Sword Art Online movie yet. From what I understand, Progressive is a remake of the original Sword Art Online books. With Sword Art Online being under fire from leftists for having rapey villains makes me uncertain if the "Progressive" title isn't just a coincidence as the author attempts to appease those critics through a remake.

Anime has the occasional reboot, but who has time for that?

There is so much new content I can't keep up!

Haven't watched it, but isn't the sister one of the most reviled characters in anime?

Wonder how she stacks against Kyubey (from Madoka Magica) and Malty (from Rising of the Shield Hero).

Now it's time for... The Wheel of Morality!

Wheel of Morality, turn, turn, turn.

Tell us the message that we should learn.

And today's message is:

That's why the public service message comes at the end of the episode!

Now you know.

And knowing is half the battle!

Others have given a lot of good suggestions. As I've mentioned before, Fate/Zero is a good fantasy anime. And Sword Art Online is technically Sci-Fi. Have you seen the Gun Gale Online spinoff? I thought that was fun.

But for a series about sci-fi and fantasy crossing over, the "to aru" series must be mentioned.

The main setting is a city of science. They have technology ahead of the rest of the world and many of their people have developed "esper powers". Outside the city are various factions that rely on magic instead.

A Certain Magical Index (Toaru Majutsu no Index): The main branch of the series. First 2 seasons are good. Season 3 has a dramatic drop in quality of writing because they tried to adapt too many books into that season.

A Certain Scientific Railgun (Toaru Kagaku no Railgun): A spinoff that runs parallel to the main branch. Two seasons. Three seasons.

A Certain Scientific Accelerator (Toaru Kagaku no Accelerator): A side story.

Alternate between watching Index and Railgun since they're concurrent. The timing is a bit off, but figuring out how they fit together is half the fun.

Accelerator is the last anime from this series that was released and should probably not be watched until after watching the first two seasons of Index/Railgun.

There also a movie, A Certain Magical Index the Movie: The Miracle of Endymion (Toaru Majutsu no Index Movie: Endymion no Kiseki). It's basically another side story that should be saved for after getting familar with Index/Railgun first.

Kino

Full title: Kino's Journey (english) or Kino no Tabi (japanese)

Both versions are worth watching because the new one is more like a second season than a remake.
