    Funfact: The mascot is for Jubilee 2025.
    The reason why she and the other characters are wearing raincoats and muddy boots is because they are pilgrimage merch. This is also why they are holding pilgrimage canes.
    They expect kids who take part in the pilgrimages to take one of these toys with them as a memento.

    All I did was like anime. Classmates had already been distancing themselves from me even before discovering that I liked anime. Once they knew, it just got worse. I was ostracized and ignored for liking the “Chinese” cartoons, got absolutely roasted in class because if you liked anime you instantly lose all credibility, and anytime people mentioned anime it was always in a negative connotation. People who are just now recognizing anime because it’s mainstream now only just realized anime is not a kids cartoon, but now we have problems because they’re seeing anime, like the basic concept of a loli character which is the biggest problem by far because the newcomers are tourists and have no understanding of anime, no history with anime, no in-the know of the culture, nor even just simple running gags and tropes.
    Now they’re coming into the space/community/fandoms and creating an even worse toxic environment with their political beliefs, extra stupidity, and colonization attempts at changing Japanese culture because everything the goddamn earth revolves around the USA as it is the only culture to them. Nothing else exists.
    These people are same people that attacked others for liking anime or they’re people who did like anime, but now want to insert their delusional narratives and politics into an anime rather than enjoy it for what it is. Recent example: Ranma 1/2 remake, the weirdos are now calling Akane bisexual. They hated anime and ostracized me and now I can’t even enjoy anime without it being a problematic. Fuck this timeline.

Sure, we have Kirei, Karen and a cardinal whose name I forgot, but that is far outweighted by all other things they do. They make sure the Holy Grail Wars don't go off the rails; They have the Burial Agency, that hunts down dead apostles; and they actually care about others. Most of the bad things the church did can be excused as for the greater good or as some bad apples in their mix, unlike the Clock Tower.

    I wasn't bullied for liking anime as a kid in the 80s/90s. I was just bullied for being poor and ugly. My limited friend group watched at least DBZ or Sailor Moon in highschool. Of course, we were literally the losers club in highschool. But we weren't bullied because we liked anime. We were just all chubby, poor and/or ugly compared to all the rest of the kids. Most of our classmates couldn't care less about what we were into. They judged us because we were poor and unattractive. And not just guys. The chunky girls were in our group to. If you weren't fit, athletic and from at least a middle class family you were ostracized in my school.

    Before 2020 I remember disliking anime for literally no reason, like when the few anime fans I knew talked about it to me I'd just get confused and try to change the topic aggressively, like the reputation of anime was that horrible. When 2020 came I saw anime getting more popular and somehow ended up watching Naruto, leading me to here. Anyway I don't know how God and Anime really ended up joining forces but it's 2024, eh.

    Bro what you’re saying about new anime fans is pure facts. So many of these people you can tell are the same ones who would bully those for liking it 10 years ago. The fact that they don’t venture beyond the most mainstream stuff proves it’s mainly a fitting in with what’s currently popular thing as opposed to truly messing with it on the level of hardcore fans. You can tell how fake they are by how they get triggered by classic anime tropes as opposed to back in the day when these things were accepted by the niche community and never analyzed seriously.

      Crazy how when anime became popular the quality fell off. 😔. At least we have cartoons and comics to watch as we wait for animanga to become good again. (Csm, one piece and dungeon Meshi are only good animanga left dandadan overrated)

    • @filipe_paixao
      @filipe_paixao День тому

      @Jery-ej3iz there's a lot of Good anime, but since the quantity of animes being produced exploded due to popularity, that also leads to A MAJORITY of them being mass produced for a quick check.
      For example, Isekai animes are always popping out (at lest 6 or 7 episodes every week for the last decade 💀).
      But despite that, there's a few good Isekai.
      Currently you can just look at Re Zero.
      Even in season 2 they would skip openings and endings and it would still take 30 minutes instead of the typical 20 minute animes.
      Episode 1 of season 3 was basically an entire movie length to (probably because some people only care about action 💀 so they went until our first action moment of the arc)
      Now... some animes are not so lucky as Re Zero...
      Look at Blue Lock season 2💀
      The manga was the most selled manga of 2023 and they made a slide show presentation with worse animation than the manga 😰
      That was probably top 2 worse fall outs of 2024.
      Other good adaptations where the studio goes all out also exist.
      (Sometimes when a NEW STUDIO gets created for a new anime, they go all out and make 1 Very good anime... and then they get popular and get a lot of work, so they start mass producing to make more money to compensate how much money they invested in that first anime. Or they might just sell their studio to a bigger studio.)
      Btw, if you liked Dungeon Meshi, I
      think there's a chance you might like the concept of "Dungeon people". The quality is not that crazy and it's basically a slice of life of people working in managing a dungeon,
      Behind the scenes. but it's pretty good as it's its own thing.
      As for Dandandan anime, the first 6 episodes (they got leaked) seemed like introductory episodes to what's the show about, the story itself is a bit all over the place cause the author literally just wrote whatever the hell he wanted. (Which 50% of was around balls 💀... should I question wh-)
      From those first 6 episodes I cannot really say I'm going to remember anything next year.
      There's nothing MEMORABLE.
      it's appealing because of Chaos and randomness, but that also makes it forgettable long term.
      A show I wasn't expecting to get a good animation (thank god it did) was Frieren, you can tell the studio placed in work and passion in it.
      They did a good job portraying what the story is.
      There's other examples but you get the point.
      Not all shows deserve love when produced into an anime, but sometimes, not even the ones that deserve have the chance to get it, or a studio that actually understands/knows how to put that work well (God of High School was... 💀)

    now that's not the case and i will say i really enjoy/like anime with barely any hesitation (probably).
    also i'm new time wise but i'd say i'm past the entry level by now,
