because japan rejects social justice

Because they're white when it's convenient

"muh muslims are oppressed"

I mean, Islam *really* rejects social justice

Asians are basically whites in terms of class in the west

anime is fascist now

I mean, shit I don't know, they're still not really allowed to have an actual military force.

japanese society is extremely anti social justice, and is very anti political correctness. islam PRETENDS to be pro social justice,

I don't think it's any coincidence that anime has exploded in popularity in recent years

It feels genuine in a sea of SJW-converged western shit

and yes, anime has exploded cause anime rejects the shitty sjw stuff that kills american shows

compare marvel comics with my hero acadamia

the show that is a love letter to american comics is more genuine than said comics currently

compare one punch man to literally any hollywood action movie. that show is literally about a mary sue character, and is a far better action story than nearly anything hollywood has ever made

Mmm. I don't do much Japan shit, because I'm not a weeb, but I do like the shit that seems to form a cultural intersection with western stuff.

Shit like Dark Souls and Cowboy Bebop really sticks out to me.

there are a lot of 'gateway' animes, which are what you're discribing

fullmetal alchemist, one punch man, my hero acadamia. things that americans can watch without being into japanese shit

things with good english dubs

there are a few more but i cant think of them off the top of my head

Having said that I'm not gonna pretend like I wasn't watching the Pokemon marathon for a few weeks.

god i havent seen that show in years

It's a show that's really gone on far longer than it should have.

Ash stopped having any interesting development after the Johto League.

lol

see, i havent seen it in so long i dont have any idea what johto is

last thing i saw was the mewtwo movie

i saw that in theaters as a kid

tl;dr, Ash finally actually beats Gary, and has completely failed at any real growth beyond that point.

i didnt see it in theaters, but i had the vhs, which came with a mewtwo card

theater did too

The movie came with some sort of card. I don't know if it was a Mewtwo card though.

I know the second one came with a special Mew one.

i still have a bunch of pokemon stuff somewhere

I'm not a weeb but at this point I prefer anime to western animation by a mile

I gave all my card that I had to my kid brother.

i dont watch any animated shows at the moment

I really don't either. I don't watch TV, and I don't have any current subscriptions to any streaming services.

It depends for me. I'm really picky in general

The only sort of "kids" thing that I follow any more is the Sonic comics. Those are pretty good.

typically, to get made into an anime, you need to be very successful in manga or light novels. it is very meritocratic, so most animes are very good. trash still gets through, but all that matter in the industry is success. SJW stuff, which never sells, would not make it in the japanese market. at all.
