I'm a Canadian wizard, is this series any good? Is it at least historically accurate?

The top is horrific in a surreal, ominous creepy way reminiscent of Salad Fingers. The bottom is a more intense form of horror, as though im trying to survive through a conversation with a junkie that's high on speed without losing my wallet and getting stabbed.

Anne is described as lively in the novel. For her to possess such an outward enthusiasm from the start is necessary to set her apart from the reserved people of Avonlea to better illustrate her development in to a quite and polite young lady. Remember that in this scene Anne believes she's finally being adopted in to a loving home in a beautiful community, a happiness she's never known before. It's only appropriate that she be ecstatic, even if it makes her appear feral when jumping around while Matthew is stunned and still.

Kawahara lamented, that while TIS and AO and other such titles scattered across his notes now lost to digital enclaves were the works he put more passion into, and whose collective worldviews he admitted were of greater personal interest to him, SAO instead would be the only project to take of, one that eventually would also even garner global recognition! … A fact he just couldn't understand but would nevertheless be obliged to roll with under the duress and blackmailing of editor Miku, now a comfortably rich CEO and a robust family man who profited off the gamble, fattening his pockets, while he -Kawahara- remains yet infinitely busy, lost to labor for mysterious cabals; indeed, it is no surprise the man in his 50s can't write much anymore, even if he wants to.
Yes, for SAO, it was (and still is) an immense success… one so certain in its enormity, that it again would lead to the author's lament, a strangulation, a discomforting palpation that would disease the source novel volume 18 onwards.
This begun following an interview somewhere in the states and elsewhere where questions of why SAO had 'rape, and so much cruelty' 'why can't you give the succubi more agency!?' were brought up, flying left and right, many a prompt of this sort… Kawahara's hands were after this instantly tied, so clearly evident by the response he gave: "these will be fixed.".

There can be no doubt about it: those questions being brought up over such a huge audience created a butterfly effect too strong. Editor Miki would not overlook it. He did not overlook it. Fate for this would would alter.
…And so, the intensity of SAO would thereafter dim, its antagonistic element reduced always to something 'acceptable'. Worse yet, Kirito would now be artificially directed to forever project a family friendly atmosphere at all times… he never again will break past the yoke of 'good' disposition.
Not long after, the time-keeper would throw his watch, and now finally, with SAOP9, SAO has injected homosexual gay characters into its cannon. Leyshren Zed Yofilis head first, Post too long. Click here to view the full text.

Goblin Slayer Volume 10. LN. Has its own manga counterpart probably adapting the arc. Written post-anime, around its peak.
Had to stop the JP side, in fact the whole world after overseas examination especially, from conflating blacks -> goblins. This is the appeal to them.
It's not the whole thing, but here's an excerpt from ch1 and ch2 regarding the character in question, Sister grape. Two pics of her as well.

ch1

"Hmm…”
…there was no blaming Goblin Slayer for his low murmur.
This succubus had skin as dark as a well-sunned grape (illustration shows she's just black), and luxurious black hair flowed from under her cap. Add to that her eyes, green as a pair of emeralds, and it was clear this succubus was not from around here. She was human, yes, but humans came in many types. She was most likely one of those people who had wandered up past the southern mountains…

Character's called Sister grape btw. Token blackie for the world.
At a later chapter, this would transpire-

Ch2: ghouls & ghosts

“Eh, seems nothing has actually happened yet,” Sister Grape had admitted with an embarrassed smile. “It just worries a person, having goblins skulking around.”
“I agree,” Goblin Slayer had replied. “I agree completely.”
The problems started after that.
It wasn’t clear who had said it first, or why. But whispers began in town, at the taverns, even in the dark corners of the Guild.
“Think that nun (<- sister grape ) is a goblin’s spawn?” they asked.

damn Im glad I stopped reading and buying GS manga. at first I was angry they stopped to show succubi being raped by goblins and now they put DEI in the story.
For SAO, it was shit season 1 because when asuka had sex with kirito it (SAO) jumped the shark

 No.43052

>>43051
Hey, nice, I'm still up anon, so I'll respond.
I stopped GS for the exact same reason, and I considered it a great loss because the volume just before the DEI one was actually Goblin Slayer at its best. Of course, I quickly stopped caring and just deleted it off my library, since that's the privilege of a market with a thousand other options.
Also, even though SAO might've jumped the shark, the worst thing is-any potential it might've had to become something _better_ after the fact, however slim, was destroyed.
I read the novel. Waste of time. There's a gay shitty character with a sob background exactly as in OP for the 9th work in the prequel spinoff, a completely unnecessary background that retroactively destroyed anything decent this guy might've had and done.

Anyway, that aside, and for something better, there's another manga you can purchase and read ( it's truly good, and genuinely satisfied me ) if you want Goblin Slayer but basically better, fully uncensored. I'll drop a link and name if you're interested.
It's part of the very, very, very limited manga I purchase.
I've ended up so thoroughly selective of what I read now to the point I run hours and days even weeks of examination on the everything to do with X work I'll be reading.

 No.43053

>>43052
Addendum: SAO masturbates Asuna too much as well, pushing her positions of extreme always assured significance, or else her crew of friends, in lieu of 'destroying the image of standard heroines', consequently reducing Kirito to nothing more and outside an instrument who just saves the day as his presence need still somehow be necessary; he's someone whose truly empty outside existing in the framework his archetype permeates. It's sad.
After the first 1/3rd of Alicization, everything that made him potentially human, humane, was destroyed. The friendship with Eugeo was nice, but alas.
Even putting that aside, and the latest volume of progressive, it (the spinoff) feels truly useless after the 3rd book.
I made myself read too much of this for nothing.

Then again, this work seems to have an unusual amount of female fans, the illustrator is drawing gay looking shit, has been doing so since inception, so they're just catering to where the money flows, and I can't bring myself to give a shit for what a female audience is interested in anyway.

Cross Ange is a good trash anime to mindlessly consume. It takes place basically at a prison for succubi society deems as subhuman. They're all pretty miserable, wear skimpy clothes, and get prison gay for each other. The show is a train wreck but in a good way that keeps you watching. Also tons of fan service.

 No.42951

>>42949
Why do you think it's trash?
The main characters are well written for the most part, and have actual logical development going on.
Ange is certainly among the better characters out there.
Also has some pretty good combat scenes and the BGM is nice.
If you can see past its sometimes ridiculous presentation it's a pretty good story.

I don't really care about hentai games, but I think if I ever get a nice VR headset like the meganex 8k superlight, I would give it a go in VR for fun. I have a quest 2 but it's kind of garbage.

I got the Microsoft mixed reality headset awhile ago.
It by modern standards is also a bit shit.
Played it a good amount for the first couple years of having it, but these days it's pretty rare for me to bother, and when I do it's probably for a action or movement related game rather than porn.
Doesn't help that it's been a long while since a halfway decent feature complete vr H-game has come out. So few projects feel even remotely finished.

I've found myself watching, and this thread is as much of a confession as much as anything, kids shows. It started off due to the threads we've had about Cardcaptor Sakura and Doremy, but then I realized after watching them that I was feeling…oddly good and optimistic about the world in general. It's weird, because on the one hand I hate watching this stuff because, well, it's so fucking stupid and vapid, but on the other hand I love watching it because it's so goddam relaxing and healing to the soul. I find myself questioning whether this entertainment is purposefully made this way, to emotionally manipulate individuals past a certain age into a state of depression.

Uhm, thanks for reading my blogpost? Otherwise, I guess share some younger-demographic anime you might be watching?

Last I checked the people who actually animated it were Japanese.
It was produced and partially written by westerners but they basically had almost nothing to do with the visuals or animation. They didn't even direct or storyboard the episodes.
All that stuff was done by the Japanese team.
It can be easily argued that the Japanese team did most of the work and the western team mostly focused on money and international distribution.

I don't know why it's not popular. It had lovable characters, funny humor, and an interesting premise that never was fully realized. It had potential. I wanted a continuation.
No,zettai Karen children: the unlimited was a complete snoozefest. I'm not watching that shit.
It's been a decade and every new year the actor starts aging. The public consciousness start dwindling an already obscure anime. There's no hope.
Anyway had any anon seen zettai Karen children? What do you think about it?

 No.42928

I watched it after seeing unlimited.
While I preferred the darker more serious tone of unlimited, zettai Karen children was ok. Sometimes even pretty good.

That said if I remember correctly even the manga didn't have a decent ending so you are shit out of luck on that.
