It’s okay if you’re into wholesome stuff.

Controversial view point in...3....2....

I hope the inclusion of the black character on AoT was more about their educational montage of how clueless/isolated they were to the outside wold, and not some pandering/woke attempt cause it's 'black history month'

I don't know how much amine has ever done stuff like this, the Japanese don't seam like the type to give a fuck, but I don't know.

Considering that AoT is consistently called fascist propaganda and its Japanese, no, its not woke.

That doesn't take much though. Look at how Gate is ultra right wing because it doesn't paint the JSDF as the IJA in Nanking

This seems like the right thread to ask.  I remember an anime that came out about 2003 ish timeframe where in the beginning a dude and a chick were shopping or some shit at a mall.  It was very peaceful right up till someone started bombing the shit out of the city.  Any ideas on what the name was?

Virtually all anime has one giant black guy, with about 5% of those being cross dressing queens.

I think they were dropped from planes.  It changed the feel instantly; from people shopping and chit chatting to buildings crumbling.

It was a show and not a one off or a movie right? Did you only watch the first ep? Was a modern setting or a future setting? You saw it on TV around 2003ish? There was only so much anime on American TV back than, so that would cut it down the options.

Funny I know a manga that starts out the same way, but instead of planes a bunch of giant man eating gold fish attack.

I just finished The day I became a God.  It got a little dusty in my house towards the end and my eyes started sweating a tiny bit but I still enjoyed it.  Even though it was a really good story I don't think I'd watch a second season of this because in my opinion there is only one logical way to continue the story and I couldn't bear to watch it.

Do you remember any other details or would you recognize the title if you saw it?  I know there is a list of all anime released in the US by decade on Wikipedia if you think you would possibly recognize the title.

I was looking for a wholesome anime to counterbalance Redo of Healer and I definitely found it with Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear.  It was basically 80% BOFURI: I Don't Want to Get Hurt, so I'll Max Out My Defense and 20% That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime.

Make sure you watch the sub for this one though.  For some reason they thought the best choice for the 15 year old MC in the dub was a VA that sounds like she's 40.

Kuma Kuma Kuma bear is a great mix of cuteness, juvenile plot lines, and little flashes of genius.

(I can't help but think about 'Lain' when I see the bear PJs, but she is definitely not Lain.)

Given the very wholesome feel of the anime one thing that really stood out to me was in the 2nd episode when the MC randomly accused that guy she literally just met of being a pedo.  The guy was simply taking care of his dead friend's widow and her two young daughters and she interrogates him about whether he is after the little girl when there was nothing to suggest he was.

Something VERY dark from the LN that they left out of the anime:

That might have seemed a bit out of place in the anime.

I can honestly only think of one really awesome black character in Anime...

BLACK LAGOON'S DUTCH |BLACK HISTORY MONTH 2019|


Not like there's diversity or race wars in Japan I guess... 98% of anime characters are Japanese or Japanese aliens, Japanese god/demons or Japanese robots.

Almost sounds like something similar to Eden of the East, but EotE came out in 2009.

Last Exile, maybe?

I think we're going to need a few more details, if you can remember any.

Appreciate the tip, may have to keep digging through wikipedia for those years.. hey hack.//sign!  I don't remember anything else, I've had a few bumps on the ol noggin since then.  It was that opening scene that really grabbed my attention.  I'll post up if I run across it!

Mate they didn't draw it this month lol. It's based off of the manga, which as far as I could tell, didn't come out anywhere near black history month.
There are definitely shows and works that have leftist slants, but typically you won't see "woke" stuff, because it's not something that effects their society at all, for the most part, and typically when it does they are against it, not in favor of it. The only time it's generally a problem is when something is brought over for dubbing, as the translators and VAs can alter it to insert whatever bullshit they want.

Dutch from Black Lagoon was the first one I thought of. There was also Argo from Sword Art Online. There was the half Russian in Durrarara. The bounty host on Cowboy Bebop. There was the Afro Samurai thing too. Recurring black male characters are not that common in anime. When they show up it's not for checking some boxes, at least not yet. Companies like Soyny are moving in.

Someone posted awhile back a manga that showed that the same crap we face here is cropping up over there too. Basically a happy go lucky school girl stumbles into a Japanese Antifa rally and things go south for her, and she has to get rescued by the Japanese Proud Boys. It was only about one chapter but I found it interesting how similar some things were. The media being untruthful and misleading the public like they are here was sad but not surprising.

If anybody has a link to that manga I would like to see if there was more.

I don't know how much amine has ever done stuff like this, the Japanese don't seam like the type to give a fuck, but I don't know.


Mate they didn't draw it this month lol. It's based off of the manga, which as far as I could tell, didn't come out anywhere near black history month.
There are definitely shows and works that have leftist slants, but typically you won't see "woke" stuff, because it's not something that effects their society at all, for the most part, and typically when it does they are against it, not in favor of it. The only time it's generally a problem is when something is brought over for dubbing, as the translators and VAs can alter it to insert whatever bullshit they want.





I'm well aware it wasn't drawn this month (and I don't read the manga) but I'm pretty sure they knew when it should air. I had just came from reading through my favorite thread here that I go through everyday--the Dank Meme thread, in which shit like that IS pointed out.....ad nauseam....So it kinda popped in my head, and I asked. I didn't think the Japanese cared about that shit, but wasn't 100% sure, so I guess it's not, we can all move along now and talk about Cat Girls and Anime Boobs

You don't think Mr. Popo and Superalloy Darkshine are good characters?

I'm currently watching Ascendance of a Bookworm and Yurucamp with my oldest daughter (10). Any suggestions for further watching? MCs with blue hair are not strictly necessary, but not a detractor, either.

Non Non Byori for sure

It’s my favorite slice of life show about a super small town and the handful of girls that live there

It’s packed with funny moments and it’s the type of show that just flat out cheers me up

The fish flopping scene.

It’s very interesting.



This show. Lol.
