I'm looking for mangas that tell story of people like us: outcast, losers, NEETs, oddballs, hikkis and such.

I only found Welcome to NHK. Does anyone know more?

Majokko Tsukune-Chan is a funny and adorable OVA series that parodies the magic succubus genre of anime and manga. It's all on youtube, if you want something short and sweet to watch, I say check it out!

Berserk is such a unique blend of multiples influences
it is fascinating to see how all those different media materials got blended together
into miura's mind to form berserk

here is some inspirations to name a few:

movies:
Evil Dead 2 / 3 Army of Darkness (Guts's mechanical arm and sword and a medieval setting)
Hellraiser (God Hand which share similarities with the Cenobites)
flesh and blood (the themes of a mercenary band and the relationships within it)
Phantom of the Paradise (Griffith's transformation into Femto)

mangas:
Fist of the North Star (art style and the depiction of violence)
Devilman (The design of the Apostles)
The Rose of Versailles (the strong emotions and intricate relationships)

novel series:
Guin Saga (world-building and overall scope of Berserk)

Would you call and considered ANIME an animation made and produced entirely by a chinese
or north american
or south american
or indian
or european team?


Give me your best argument for and against this. More and more anime is coming out and being produced by not japanese.

Ive been reading hundreds of isekai harem ecchi and op protag mangas and manhwas and been wondering if theres a manga that suits my selfdefeatist psychology. The mc has like a cute succubus thats kinda likes him for being op and he just abandons her and then the manga shows how much the succubus suffers and how unbothered and asexual and wizardly mc is. And basically that on repeat. also bonus points if its an isekai doe.
manga im reading rn is I'm a Curse Crafter, and I Don't Need an S-Rank Party! btw

Domesticated Yapoo: The Human Cattle
Technically an adaptation based on a novel written by a veteran of both the Manchurian Occupation and the Imperial Japanese Navy. The adaptation was largely done by Shotaro Ishinomori, a man more famous for having created Kamen Rider and the Super Sentai than for his manga works.
You can feel the early to mid 20th century flavor to the horror seeping through the whole manga. The book seems to have been something of an underground classic in Japan, kind of like the works of The Marquis de Sade or von Sacher-Masoch in much of the European continent. So far as I know the book is untranslated, but the manga have English versions thanks largely to Ishinomori's fame.

Fair warning, if you found something on the level of Superconductive Brains Parataxis distasteful then you should stay far, far away from this one.

It is worth emphasizing that the books were considered pillars of literature. Yukio Mishima praised them as the greatest literature Japan had produced since 1945. They're still subject to serious academic analysis, including by westoids such as this:
https://www.academia.edu/5347860/Empire_through_the_Eyes_of_a_Yapoo_Male_Abjection_in_the_Cult_Classic_Beast_Yapoo
But all of the social issues they comment on are very distinctly 20th century, and the manner of their most scathing commentaries take the form of sexual brutalities that generally are not receivable when used in a visual medium such as manga. So none of the manga adaptations have gained the cultural ground held by the books, and there will hopefully never be an anime adaptation despite the prestige names incl. Mishima associated at various points in history.

I haven't watched the Pokemon anime in a long time, is there anything truly worth going back to, or is it all just blind nostalgia? I'll occasionally read news about the series, like how Ash finally won the Pokemon league, and has at long last been written off the show. Honestly, I lost interest in the anime after the infamous XYZ meltdowns and subsequent Sun and Moon seethe. Nothing will ever top that.

Welcome to my world. I haven't had interest in anime since Attack on Titan ended. Looking at what's coming out these days makes me think that was the peak for this decade like madoka magica was for 2010s. The 2000s and 90s was full of good stuff every year every season from what I checked.

I had time to kill a couple years ago and so I decided to pick up Pokemon Violet and give it a try. I'd heard it had the same open-world gameplay as SWSH but had refined it, and honestly I had wanted a Pokemon game like that since gen 1 so I was pretty excited.

So I get playing, and eventually I get to the Ghost gym/city. The city itself was only nominally ghost-related, which was disappointing but I thought whatever. Then I went to the gym, and rather than it being anything related to ghost pokemon for some reason there's this black person who is all like "Ash Ketchum I challenge you to a rap battle muh fuggin bix nood."

Nu Pokemon is so disappointing and I highly recommend staying away from it. Absolutely nothing is sacred and beyond the grasp of American globohomo

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?
