I was there 16 years ago or so. Something that I really like was when it was dark, it was very silent and little to no people despite Tokyo being a big city (excluding the hotspots). Most public areas overall was very quite and respectful. It also felt 100% safe. At least that is how I remember it, not sure how it is today. It was just before everyone had a smartphone.

It's still the same going by your description. Someone described Japan as "the future of the past frozen in time". If it weren't for the dogshit iphones that virtually 100% of them use, it's like "2008 in 1989". But yeah, when night falls the streets seem to be virtually empty.

Geek culture was still mostly safe until the end of the 00s and the start of the 10s.

Marathoned Goblin slayer second movie and season two.
The character development was such a tease. Was overall very good and it truly understands grimdark and uses it very well.
That said I felt pretty desensitized to the violence and other horrors. It's been awhile since I watched the first season and movie so I am not sure if it's something about the presentation or if it's because I knew what to expect but the violence and horror didn't have much of a impact.
It actually meant that most impactful moments were quiet moments of self reflection or discussion that gave greater depth to the characters. that moment when Goblin slayer broke down after a night drinking, beating himself up about not being worthy to be happy. That scene got to me man.

Also was a lot more fanservice which felt kinda weird in part but whatever. It isn't that seeing TnA offends me or anything stupid like that. It's just some of it strains my credulity due to the setting and where they were at the time. I am mainly complaining about the lake ep with the succubi wearing bikinies as well as sleeping unarmored while in the wilderness after already fighting off a hoard of goblins earlier in the day and knowing they didn't kill them all so they should logically all be on guard.

Tiny nit-picks aside was a great season of a great show. If that is the last of it I am satisfied. If there is more I look forward to it whenever it comes.
I just wish the setting had therapy or something because I seriously feel bad for Goblin Slayer's mental state at times.

I stoped reading goblin slayer the moment they stopped doing rape scene from the goblins. I hate the fan service was just a tease and they stopped doing it afterward

Speaking of rape…

I made the mistake of watching Redo of Healer.
It was gross. It having a couple of legitimately good action scenes somehow pissed me off more then if it was just the edgiest softcore rape porn ever created.
I was disgusted by the vast majority of it, yet watched it to the end out of some sort of obligation not to be beaten by it. I mean it wasn't boring and was animated well, but the writing was shit, the charters were shit, and the plot was retarded and shit.
I am getting too old and jaded for this bullshit. I am fine with edgy but shit was just gross and nasty for no fucking reason. Like the sexual equivalent of gross-out only without the humor.

I remember this anime. beside the rape scene watching succubi naked, there's no reason to watch it at all beside the sex scene to me lol

Anime is dead. The new anime coming out is trash, rewatching old anime gets tiring and some old anime doesn't age well like tominos side projects or gets lost in time.

The otaku identity is now pink and blue tranny rooms on YouTube full of $5000 spent on first result in google anime merch of the latest seasonalslop poser anime like jjk,mha,nagatoro, uzaki-chan,my dress up darling. The "otaku" these days don't even know who is aura battler dunbine or ideon.

Anime and Japan also lost a lot of its "power" so to say in the way of mysticism/ nerd cred. Initially being viewed as a high quality nation with #1 schooling in the world it's now cheap commericial touristwank. The politicians are all now pozzed centrists payed off by the West instead of based hard right wing. The average Japanese teen nowadays prefers McDonald's over sushi. It's truly over.

OP, as sad it is, you have to understand that most great things in this world will start creeping out of their golden ages and start deteriorating soon enough.
We all have to keep ourselves in check when we even try to give something we love a divine status with unrealisitc expectations.

The new Ranma ½ anime is confirmed to stream on Netflix outside Japan (via SAG-AFTRA Signatory Search) in the 5th of October, i bet with my own ass that this serie will be the most hated remakes ever made because all anime that had been taken over by westerners and streamed on fucking Netflix ended up being failed ( actually not all of them) its like when someone bought from you an ice-cream truck and told you that he is going to add new flavor with his own spit
>Fuck you Netflix and Fuck you Paramount
Let the anime shit made by yellow people dont fucking ruin it.

Conclusion : Netflix is an asthetic destroyer

Anime is in complete ruins, almost everything wide open to fuckery. Every time you call for a reboot, remake, a sequel or whatever to an existing manga/anime, you risk it being marred with globohomo crap looking to make the biggest buck for as a wide as an audience as it can.

FSI stands for Foreign Service Institute. it's the government department that trains diplomats that go all over the world. their ranking and hours are based on objective data they have collected, how long it takes them to train someone on average to reach R-3/S-3 proficiency (around B2/C1 on the CEFR scale). they have no incentive to inflate the numbers because students get paid to study full-time in their programs so they would be looking to do it as efficiently as possible. apparently they can't do it faster than 88 weeks on average, 2200 classroom hours + about as much homework and self-study. and this is with people doing it full-time and highly motivated intelligent people that are on track to work as diplomats.

not trying to discourage anyone, but people should know what they're getting into and that it's a big time investment. even with a good method based on input and immersion, it will take years of commitment.

I'm not too big into manga and LNs, I prefer VNs.
It's a medium that's really like an iceberg, only a small portion on the top is translated. Whether the stories are better depends on what you like. Untranslated VNs in general tend to be more focused on romance and erotic content, and there are also some very obscure VNs made by like one person that can get quite crazy or je ne sais quoi.
In general, I'd say that the main reason to learn/know Japanese is not for untranslated media per se (a lot of stuff gets translated, and AI translation is getting better by the day), but to get a more genuine experience, because translations tend to be bad and nowadays even politically charged, but even a "perfect" translation often can't capture what's really being meant in Japanese.
