Not able to game as much as I used to, but when I do:

  • Still working my way through Dragon Quest XI. SHTF with the plot and still trying to make it right

  • Endless Sky with the new Midnight mods; adds a lot of cool content to the game

anime recs:

  • Rising of the Shield Hero (season 1): this is the one that triggered lefties after Kavanaugh because a female scumbag falsely accuses the main protagonist of sexual assault

  • Fate/Zero: mature anime and lots of masculine characters; Highlander style duels for the fate of the universe mixed with the intrigues of Game of Thrones

  • Black Lagoon: mercenary action set in the criminal underworld of SE asia

Also, when it comes to Manga, what do they do differently compared to modern day comic books?

Skimming over the thread I didn't notice this addressed.

Manga in Japan is mostly released in thick magazines that contain individual chapters from multiple different series and lots of advertisements sprinkled throughout for various anime/game/manga related stuff. These magazines never make it to the U.S. They resemble medium size phone books, and have paper quality to match (very poor quality).

Instead we get the tankobon, aka graphic novels, that combine multiple chapters from a single series into a book. If there are ads, it's usually one or two pages in the back advertising the publisher's other releases. The paper tends to be high quality. They are slightly taller and wider than most western paperback novels, but not as thick. The books normally have a volume number on the spine, so it's easy to figure out the order they should be read when lined up on a bookshelf.

Japan has unofficial fan comics, doujinshi, that more closely resemble American comic books. They tend to be thin, wide, and tall. Probably just one chapter of content. The anime "Comic Party" focuses on doujinshi culture.

I've noticed that happening for more recent shows.

That means that ad blockers are working.

Good.

Anime and manga specifically target certain audiences with stories

I believe this has been the main reason why anime has been resistant to wokeness. By understanding their audience first, there is less ambiguity for what belongs in a show.

For example, gay plots/characters belong in josei. Attempts to shoehorn it into shounen/seinen as anything other than minor comic relief will obviously be wrong to everyone who's honest. This frustrates leftists who want to preach to audiences that are traditionally unreceptive to their garbage messaging.

That's why I only recommended SIGN.

It's where .hack begins, so no knowledge of the rest of .hack is required.

And unlike Roots, it wraps up its main plot by the end.

Sword Art Online is part of what I call the "Aniplex Trio", three big anime from Aniplex that dominated 2011. The other two were:

  • Puella Magi Madoka Magica

  • Fate/Zero

Madoka looks cutesy but it gets dark. The movie's plot sucked, but it has one of the best gun fights in anime.

Fate/Zero combines the epic duels for the fate of the universe of Highlander with the plotting and backstabbing of Game of Thrones.

Also, for anime about people stuck in an online game:

  • .hack//SIGN

It's more of a mystery anime than an action anime.

Trump could be easily bought off

Billionaires do the buying off of politicians, not the other way around.

Don't give them the views.

Watch good shows like Shield Hero or Goblin Slayer.

Vaxxed kids can be just as infectious as unvaxxed kids.

If you don't like that, vote for the other Brandon.
