That translates to Love and Lies, right?

Lol

Oh I'm finally watching Darling in the Franxx! First episode was good

The first episode was a good primer, but kinda weak. Episode 2 and 3 are pretty good tho!

The first episode is my favorite, 02 is cute in the lake scene

Did you finish Your Name? @epic

I tried doing that "Epic Pop" show stuff. Jesus Christ, I've gotta' be honest,

I couldn't make it past the intro.

It started out okay, with like the episode preview at the beginning.

*but shiiiiit*

Not for me I guess.

Gonna' stick to action anime.

Lol

@Thomas to be fair you have to have an extremely high IQ to understand Pop Team Epic-

*without a basic understanding of Japanese adorability factors msot of the jokes will go right over your head*

That was a good copypasta while it lasted.

Lol

@Thomas have you tried Darling in the Franxx?

*lolno the hell is that?*

I tell you man

these Japanese cartoonists and their names.

This name is actually totally straight forward, "Darling" us referring to the romantic relationship between the main characters, and "Franxx" is the name of the giant robots they pilot.

Koi wa Ameagari no You ni looks really good, I'll check that one out today

Yo

Your Name is great

Watch this movie, nerds

I watched in the theater with some friends (back when I had IRL friends)

It was amazing

Probably my favorite romance anime

Oh yay! Tell me what you think about Koi wa Ameagari when you watch it, there are only 4 episodes out right now

Back when you had Irl friends?

Lol????

It's a long story, but a combination of my politics and religious beleifs lost me most of my friends last year. They were "weed lmao" reddit secularists.

@Alyssa Cordelia Watching it right now, I'm already love the artstyle

I love the art style too! Its really interesting, it kind of reminds me of the really old school anime

the close ups are so detailed

@Simon Sasquatch oh that sucks. F

What are you watching?

@epic https://nyaa.si/view/995332

Whats it about?

"Koi wa Ameagari no You ni"/"After the Rain"

@epic https://myanimelist.net/anime/34984/Koi_wa_Ameagari_no_You_ni?q=Koi%20wa%20Ameagari%20no%20You%20ni

Its good I love it

A high school student falls in love with an old man?

Really nibbas?

;_; hes not an old man

45 with a son is way too old for a high school student, autists

It's trad, dude

*no*

*says the guy dating an older woman*

LOL

~4 years = 30 years and a son

Cool

AND WE ARENT DATING WE JUST WENT ON A DATE

Shes only 1 year off from it being considered normal

*no*

laws =/= morality

I said nothing of laws

Its legal in japan

> I didnt say laws
> I said it was legal

<:brainlet:402673657391874059>

Before you brought up laws, all I said was it would be considered normal

Its not normal tho

30 years and a son is pretty gross

5, 10, 15, 20????? *maybe*********
But 30 years and a son?

ooof

Thats gross

Its not like I would condone it in real life, I would never tell a 17 year old girl to be a stepmom

But anime lets you suspend disbelief for a bit

That's part of the fun of anime

> watching pedophelia is part of the fun of anime
thats cool

>pedophelia

> buhhhhhh consent laws make it okay
> buhhhhh consent is the only thing that matters
<:brainlet:402673657391874059>

Okay, Destiny

17 is not pedophilia

> its not pedophilia is hebophilia!!!
okay, reddit

Dude

Blaze, now you're just being unreasonable

Your chick is not a pedophile for being with a 16 year old

^

> early twenties = late fourties
*aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa*

Okay, so now the other persons age determines whether its pedophilic, even though they're both adults?

It's just an anime, you're not going to disavow traps and catbois now are you?

> if they're both adults its okay

not very trad

It's Alt-Trad

In traditional european Christian societies, women would get married in their early teens to men in their 20s and above

HOLY SHIT THATS STILL COMPLETELY DIFFERENT REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

This feels like the same sort of arguementation used by the folks that keep asking Nick to disavow traps and catbois all the time

It's just an anime, it's fine

I dont want to watch it tho, I think thats gross

Don't watch it bro its okay

Good, I'm gonna eat some food and (re)watch some GOOD anime

This anime doesn't condone pedophilia

+1

Lol Blaze

We can all agree that Bebop is great at least

Alyssa hasn't seen it because she's a romance dweeb. Very sad!

Harsh neg

What can I say, I'm a shoujou anime type. I didn't even see NGE until I talked to Nick about it

Bebop has some good romance elements, though they are more subtle. It also has some religious themes that you'd probably like.

a 17 yo girl isn't really like

what pedos go for lmao

its basically a grown woman

If you watch til episode 5, you'll be hooked @Alyssa Cordelia

Especially if you liked Eva

Hm, I'll have to give it a shot! I know its a classic

@donut true

lso Koi to Uso is about a future Japan

where an algorithm determines your future spouse

so arranged marriages

and it's really hard to get out of them

its super good though 😃

Ohh, that sounds really interesting! I'll have to check that one out too

basically MC was in love with this one girl

@donut I watched the first two episodes of that one, really like it, but I forgot to keep up with it when it was airing

and she confesses to him the night before his 15th birthday (you get your "note" at 15)

and the person he gets as his spouse isnt the girl he was in love with

and yeah

it goes on from there

the first episode is amazing so it should hook you

and it has a very shoujo art style

17 and 18 are ok ages

In my humble opinion, I dont think you're a pedophile if you're attracted to 17/18 year old. There are people who are more strict though

But I especially think its okay if its just dating and doing cute things, with no explicit or dirty things

I'd agree with that, especially when within the context of a Christian relationship

reminder loli is a body type

theres def

people develop at different ages

a maturity difference

and a 40+ year old man can for sure take advantage of a girl in her late teens

but it's not pedophilia

just abuse

lol

There are 18 year olds that look like kids and 12 year olds that look like models

Hence just no sex until after marriage works

I think that part of why it worked so well in the trad Christian societities, they where getting married right after puberty, which would curb a lot of the pre-marital sex nonsense you see today.

Also, they were having puberty later than today. Chemicals in the water have screwed with that.

actually.....

i mean it also had to be approved by the parents

which helps lol

Due to the smaller life expectancy it was earlier

Women having children at 16 was normal

ESPECIALLY in arab countries which is why they're all pedos

a young girl generally wouldn't be doing that great of a job of choosing a lifetime partner

@A_Sturmmann✓ᵛᵉʳᶦᶠᶦᵉᵈ that's what I meant

The parents being involved really clears up a lot of confusion

Definitely

Arranged marrigages must have been great

Lol it would definitely be easier

Church mandated gfs

for sure

The problem now, is most kids have bad parents, and most kids don't have God

So we have to forge our own way

Our next generation will have it a bit easier though, hopefully

Definitely, if we, Gen Z, do our part

yeah my mother has terrible taste in men

I'm luckier than most of Gen Z, my parents are good folk and I'm glad they stay together and love each other, but they really not into relgion

Your parents must be pretty cool considering how you are lol

My biological parents are not so great, my dad more so than my mom, but I was very lucky to have a very Christian Aunt who gave me the right values

Most of the Gen Z folks I've talked too had were not as lucky as me, and many are nihilistic because of their Gen X headonistic parents

That's good, I'm glad! I've been reviving religion in some of my friend groups, I'm really happy about that. It feels really good to see people around me become happier with religion

That's great, keep up the Lord's work. I made poor decisions in who I chose to be friends with in HS. As I mentioned before, most of them ended up disavowing me becuase of my overt religiousity. I wwas a little overbearing at times, for sure, but my attemps at evangalizing ended up pushing pretty much all of my non-movement friends away perminently.

Which is probably a good thing for me, I was proabably being negatively influenced being around so many "sckeptic atheist types."

I'm very glad to have found this movement though, I've found some the first actually christian friends through this thing.

le skeptic = smart xdddddd

basically

That's really good, if they leave you for trying to help them, then they're not good friends

skeptics are SOYed up retards

Exactly, that's what I learned

It's good to be around chad, trad, catholics

huge improvement for sure

just bullycide the ones that are on the fence

I was too accepting, I didn't want to offend them to bad

Which was definitely bad praxis

I should have been arguing from a more confident postion

exactly be like Shawn

lol

I should have been more like Shawn

Argueing from the defensive position makes you look weak, but I didn't understand this at the time

They didn't even mind the edgy alt-right memes, it was specifically Christ they had a problem with

<:Crusade:402369915010547723>

be on the offense

ask questions

and continue going in that direction

until they start to "break" off into your direction

It's too late now, they all think I'm a closeted homosexual Neo-Nazi christian fundamentalist

which is pretty funny tbh

lmfao

Yeah man I lost a childhood friend of 8 years for telling her to be abstinent and learning I was a little too late

Wow, that sucks. You're probably better off for it

that childhood friend is weak minded that's why they left probably

A lot of those friends were into degeracy, sex, weed, etc. and I constantly told them that what they were doing was gay

I never participated in any of it, and my moral indignation is partialy what pissed them off so much

She is very weak willed and I can be really argumentative about things like this... I told her she was gonna end up just like her mom! That was rough. Same here Simon

That's probably it then

For me I'm lucky because most of the friends I hang out with are Irish Catholics

Who are ring leaning and are not as degenrate

right leaning

@Alyssa Cordelia That sounds rough, wow

@Augustus InFuccsticks that's good

I've met some good IRL folks via DailyStormer Book Club groups as retarded as it sounds

A lot of trad catholics and christians

But, like clock work, we recently had a split in the group over degeneracy and secularism. One side wanted to continue to engage in hooking up with college thots and drinkning and smoking etc, they other side was more tradition and didn't want any part of that.

Those degenerate side is more TRS folks as you could probably guessed, but even whithin Far-Right friends, sexual immorality and religion are huge dividing lines.

Lol I'm knitting while we talk about this and I feel like I'm in a sewing circle. But yeah, that seems to divide everyone in the right. It's the people who were raised without values I bet, so it's not exactly their fault. They're a product of their enviorment, but if they are given the option to fix themselves and they don't, then the blame is on them

Whatre you sewing? :^)

@Alyssa Cordelia That's so trad lol

I agree

I'm knitting, and you know exactly what I'm knitting! :D

Hahaha

Good luck

👀

Youll see, simon

Dont worry about it

lol
