/dep/ anime Anonymage 10/29/20 (Thu) 18:40:28 No.34725 [Reply][Last 50 Posts]

Maybe this belongs more on /hob/ and if the mods agree I would hold no ill will for them for moving or deleting it but I recently got around to watching Serial Experiments Lain and wanted to find some other wizzards with good reccomendations for /dep/ anime. The ones of course given are succubi last tour and Lain. I would personally not count Watamote as it seems quite shallow and everything turns out fine in the end and whatnot. So what are some other anime, manga or light novels dealing with actual depression or schizophrenia and not in the mainstream boohoo am so sad way.

Hold on but what about anime and manga that aren't just depressing but also try to convey something important? I mean, lain isn't pure depression, it's also trying to relay some ideas to you. Granted, I may still have no frickin clue whatsoever what the hell it is that it's trying to tell you, but there's definitely a message in there.
So yeah, what about anime or manga that both fits the atmosphere and the symbolism?

For me, Lain's story was a bit "too normal" to treat it as a proper existential horror movie.

The guy in VR helmet from layer 07 was spooky, though. Hadn't it been for him, i would have forgotten the very fact I, in fact, did watch some pieces of S.E.Lain back in late 2000s.

Regarding Japanese Imperial Family. Anonymage 07/17/26 (Fri) 08:56:04 No.44369 [Reply]

I know this is a controversial thing to say, but I learnt about the Japanese Imperial Family, and I felt so horrible in my own stomach knowing how the Japanese Emperor can't leave, even if he wants to. And the horrible treatment of his wife for not producing a male heir.

The Japanese Government's perspective regarding the Imperial Family is extremely horrible, they worship the beautiful throne but will not let the individuals who should be on that throne live in dignity to be honest. They are not even citizens and the Japanese Government only seems them as State Property.

At least the Princesses can marry commoners and leave if they want, the Empress can be divorced, but the Emperors and Prices can't even fucking leave, every single one of their moves is monitored, they are forced to perform unnecessary rituals, etc. I honestly, will get massively hated for this but life is significantly better in a trailer park than it is the Imperial Palace.

Honestly, if Japanese really revere their emperor they should force the government to give emperor basic human rights and freedom of movement. Like this really reminds me of when I read about GITMO tbh.

The only silver lining about learning this is that I unironically have more respect for my life in the third world country where I can go where I want, eat what I want, and speak what I want.

Economic crash leads to unpredictable outcomes, we live in a competitive world and just because it's "wrong" for a struggling declining power to be taken over by a stronger one doesn't mean it won't be the way things go.

>>44363
No, killing old people regardless of your edgy sociopathic ideology doesn't fix the problem of reduced demand from a shrinking population causing economic crash. The wealthy will see their investments plunge in value and will follow the natural incentive to increase immigration to prop up real estate prices, consumerism, etc.

Here it is spelled out:

Gatekeeping Anime Anonymage 06/04/21 (Fri) 01:41:51 No.36815 [Reply]

What should be the best measures that we should take to gatekeep anime has hard as it get?
Remember, if you don't believe in gatekeeping, you are a normalgroid.

Some measures that I suggest are:
-Knowing in deep a lot about an anime, visual novel, light novel, novel, manga or game in particular.
-Having a decent knowledge about the medium.
-Being very invested into at least one work.
-Being very invested at least in one fandom.

Is not neccesary to have all these things, but at least one. What more should be added?

>I wish I was autistic enough to enjoy those sorts of anime.
The capacity to feel endearment for children, especially little succubi, is owed to a developed neofrontal cortex, specifically the amygdala. Autists (real ones) have small sized and/or low synapse activity of the entire region. So to be autistic is to not enjoy these types of anime.

Stop conflating autism with having any semblance of healthy male personality.

I feel the same. In essense it is not a true battle of mage anime, since the system is left vague and power scale is avoided at all cost. It has its charms with the whole rock paper scissor angle to it.

I don't like how soft the male characters are honestly. When the illusion of "dream like sequence" is gone after the initial chapters, the magic really fades away.

I liked it because it was slow, there wasn't anything dramatic happening and it had some emotional moments. Music was great too, both the OST and OP2 of S1 "Haru", which has become one of my favorite songs.
