I randomly came across the South Park anime episode.  It’s still one of my all time favorite SP episodes

The fact that it’s Trey Parker singing the anime-esque “Fighting Love” song makes it even funnier.  I don’t speak Japanese, but apparently he does a good job.

South Park Lets Fighting Love (Fight scene\English Translation)



Also, anime Kenny looks pretty badass.

WTF is with Japan and incest?  Does every girl in Japan want to bang her older brother?
According to the training films... yes every last one of them want to screw their older brothers.

That's not fair.  Some of them just want to screw their older cousin.
Only because their older brother died tragically in the Waifu Wars and they are making due with what they've got.

I have the DVD of that season, and there is a whole 'behind the scenes' segment on doing that episode.

The frequency of it occurring seems to have started dropping off in the 1960s.  Seems to have been a mix of education about the increased risk of birth defects in offspring, improvements in travel (rural communities less isolated), people leaving rural areas and moving to cities (increased options for marriage candidates), and a trend toward families becoming smaller (decrease in the number of cousins available).

There is actually a discussion or two about this issue buried in the pages of this thread.

I believe due to the more tightly knit nature of the family in Japan as well as the culturally accepted practice of bathing together even in later years (above the age of toddlers).

The opportunity for such feelings to develop is greater than here.

I guess I’ll take that as a “no” then.

I couldn't find anything giving a definite answer on whether it was still viewed as socially acceptable by the majority of people in Japan.  Best guess I could come up with, from the information I could find, is that it is probably not as easily acceptable as it once was, but hasn't yet reached the "Eww" level.

And on a somewhat unrelated note, I really find myself enjoying Japanese rock.
It seems to hold the energy that western rock has lost, and to be honest some outstanding musicians.

Case in point..


And if you think why would a violin even be considered in a rock band…

I was not familiar with that group before watching those clips - they’re totally infused with high energy.

As for the violin - I like it - yet, even though I can’t quite put my finger on it, something’s definitely missing without a shakuhachi, a koto, and a shamisen…

Then you’ve been spoiled by Wagakki band and Beni on her Shamisen and tsugaru jamisen style.
Understandable, that band rawks  too.

ETA…
Can’t forget the mad monk Daisuke and his Shakuhachi.

Anyone have any opinions on In the Land of Leadale?

Reading just the first 3 sentences of the premise it reminded me of the SAO AIDS kids “arc.”  However when the AIDS kids died they were wiped from existence (IIRC).  The MC in this one is paralzyed and on life support and when she dies she enters the game (though it might be an Overlord situation where the game world becomes real).

It’s light and enjoyable fare - I kinda like series where the protagonist has overwhelming powers that nobody expects (especially those wicked villains who get their well-deserved comeuppance at the hands of the protagonist).

There are a lot of series that feature that general approach - among them in the current season I would include:  “She Professed Herself Pupil of the Wise Man” and “The Strongest Sage With the Weakest Crest”.

But you could even include series like “That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime” and “So I’m a Spider, So What?” and many others, although I suppose that a distinction could be made between those that are more explicitly crafted as an isekai vs. the ones that have a stronger link to “player ends up inside the game for real”.

It's about a high school kid who loves books, is killed, gets reincarnated as a dog, and ends up living with his favorite author (who is a hot tsundere) who he can communicate with telepathically.

Those of you who have fantasies about cute anime girls abusing you should especially like it.  The one of you that also has a sister fetish should REALLY like it.



Brittney "Auditory Butter" Karbowski also voices a character that is very Brittney.

A bit sad Dog and Scissors was added to Funi like a month before their announcement of moving to CR.

Gonna utilize the shit out of my subscription for the month, now that I have some more time to watch.

So I had it in my mind to watch it at some point and happened to see it recently when I was browsing for something else.

If I didn't read that the MC is "permanently paralyzed and on constant life support" I wouldn't have bothered checking.

I enjoy both of them, but other than they are both isekai with OP-ish MCs I don't really see the comparison.

Both gain the powers of everything they devour, which is what makes them OP.

Am I the only one that gets frustrated every time I see either one NOT eat something?

I think that was explained (or at least hinted at) in the anime.  Though, the reason for it doesn't make it any less unsatisfying, IMO.

To make it even worse...

The most unforgivable thing though is the fact that if the king and Malty would not have done what they did then Naofumi could have ended up in Siltvelt where he would have been given a harem of hot kemonomimi girls.  That just by itself is deserving of a gruesome death.

I can see a comparison for the first few episodes, but once Rimuru leaves the cave and Hajime leaves the labyrinth that stops.  That ability is a big part of who Rimuru is while, IIRC, Hajime exhausted that ability in the labyrinth and can't do it anymore.

Maybe I'm remembering that wrong though.  I really enjoy Arifureta, but its not exactly a cerebral anime.

It's in my top 3 for the season, and it's the last show I watch on Wed's so i can be in a good mood.

You could just try watching some things

And

What's that got to do with the price of tea in China ?

Sorry, not sorry that I'm missing your 'issue", it's standard Isekai-Fantasy, but video gamed 'skewed',you either like that stuff (which I do) or you don't. It's got a 4.7 out of 5 on CR and 7.8 out of 10 on Livechart, so people enjoy it.

Per my suggestion, stop nonstop posting here and watch some shit and find out for yourself, that's what I do, it's not hard.

99% of the shows I watch I don't bother asking anyone's opinions on before watching it.  However, while I do usually like isekai, I generally don't enjoy depressing anime and reading that the MC is a girl that is "permanently paralyzed and on constant life support" sounds potentially depressing so I just wanted to see if people here thought it was good before giving it a try. TBH, I don't really get why you're acting as if I was trashing the anime when all I did was ask if anyone had an opinion on it.

Ranking of Kings continues to impress.  Highly recommended if you aren't already watching it.  

If you're hesitant because the premise seems dumb and/or the art style looks bad: so was I, but by the end of E1 I was intrigued and by the end of E3 I was hooked.

Well you do have a bit of a rep, so......

If you wanted to know/was worried about it being 'depressing', you could/should have asked that, and I would have replied that is all of 30 seconds of the show, and then you instantly forget about that fact going forward, truth be told I totally forgot about that until you brought it up in the question.

I think it fits right in with shows like 'Killing slimes for 300 years' and 'Kuma Bear' in tone, action and comedy. YMMV.

I’m up to episode 3 so far.

While it’s got a totally different vibe and energy level, I can’t help but notice that Dog & Scissors seems to have drawn at least some inspiration from Edward Scissorhands (but not nearly as much from Kill la Kill, other than perhaps some artistic hints and over-the-top personality traits).

I’m mostly enjoying it, but I’m still trying to figure some things out - I’m a bit on the fence at the moment, as her character and her deeply-rooted pathologies are a bit complex - but who doesn’t enjoy a barrage of non-stop physical comedy, abusive relationships, and tiny-titty jokes?

I should probably just turn off the analytical part of my brain and simply watch it for the entertainment value alone.

I wanted to know what people's opinions were on it so I asked "Anyone have any opinions on In the Land of Leadale?"  Treemydawg posted "I have been enjoying it," Targetworks posted "it’s light and enjoyable fare," and so I added it to my watch list.  I get we all have anime we are passionate about, but I'm not sure how that activated your "I must defend my lady's honor" mode.  I wasn't trying to insult it.  Apologies if you took it the wrong way.

Believe it or not, that had little to nothing to do with it.

Eye-roll/trigger #1 we've already gone over, the whole, just watch it and find out. I've never asked anyone about a TV show/movie or book that I was interested in, if I want to know, I investigate it myself, no one knows what you'll like better then yourself. (I can respect being worried that it was a 'sad' show, and asking about that fact, I'm tired of sad show's)

But the main eye-roll/trigger was how you and a few other "active/frequent" posters (seemingly) never watch new season stuff, it's always the same old shows being brought up, so when you asked the question about this new show, I'm like 'where the fuck have you been for the last 9 weeks ??!?' I know the answer, it's posting memes and arguing over weather a Loli got screwed or not, not watching new content.

Of the 27 show's I'm watching/watched this current season, 13 have never been mentioned, with about another 6 mentioned once or in passing, and I think that's kinda weak for an active 'lets talk about anime' thread. Add to that, that you (and a few others) haven't even fully watched some the the biggest/most popular shows like Aot and RE:Zero, so when I comment about how 'Wow, Aot is great" (in reference to current events), or a semi 'warning' about where RE:Zero goes, you have no reference to know what I'm taking about, but will comment and infer how the show is meh based on 50% of the story--personally I find it odd to invest that much time into it, and not want to see it through, there are about 3 show's I'm watching now that are lower on my list, but I got this far with them, so I want to watch till the end, my 'ocd' would bug the fuck out of me if I just stopped. Anyways.....

'Rant' off, there are 5 show's that air on Fridays I have to get to.
