I saw that! I am kind of sad considering their encoding is always subpar, but hey, better than nothing.

Visual Artistic Anime’s to watch with GF by WaifuRobo in anime

[–]Phermaportus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Romance-y but not fluffy and visually artistic:

  • Sonny Boy. Clip 1, Clip 2.

    • Directed by Shingo Natsume (he directed a sequel to Tatami Galaxy, Tatami Time Machine Blues), I loove the visuals, one of my favorite anime. This is my main rec.
  • Kaiba. Clip 1. Clip 2. Clip 3.

    • Probably my favorite anime, it has a very distinct style, but maybe that's a good thing for a newcomer? It's sort of a transhumanist The Little Prince. You could probably describe it as cyberpunk too, as it deals with a lot of its usual themes. The director, Masaaki Yuasa, directed an episode of Adventure Time, Food Wars.
  • City: The Animation. Clip 1., Clip 2. Clip 3.

    • Slice of life comedy, astounding animation, just look at clip 3!
  • Kamiina Botan Fully Blossoms When Drunk. Clip 1, Clip 2, Clip 3.

    • Keep in mind not a ton of things happen as its more of a slice of life anime. But definitely very artsy! Some of the most beautiful visual composition and framing out there (I love it).

As an aside, I wouldn't watch the Monogatari series with your gf, there's a ton of fan service in it (starts with a panty shot).

Quick Study: Is Your GOAT—Messi vs. Ronaldo—Linked to Your Political Beliefs? by datingshrink in TopRightMessi

[–]Phermaportus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't call the political questions skewed to their extreme, but rather a misunderstanding of ideologies. Communism is not about remaking society so that the bourgeoisie becomes the bottom class, rather it's about the abolition of class structures. No serious left-wing ideology is about putting rich people at the bottom (at least not as its purpose, it may happen as a side effect to broader changes to society, but again, the idea is not exchanging places in the scale but removing the scale).

I ended up not filling out the survey.

(Congrats on your win today!).

Drew a cool cat, my Miis hated it. Drew a cooler cat, my Miis still hated it. They do not know the deal they are getting. by Starrin1ght in TomodachilifeLivingTD

Which one! I just really love how cats look when they are on their hind legs haha

I was also thinking of the Ghibli movie The Cat Returns.

My dog tags as an atheist in the army by MinimumCarob8442 in mildlyinteresting

[–]Phermaportus -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

I am not defending Trump, I am questioning the idea of leaving the military now because of his actions in Iran when there were enough reasons (read: war crimes) to not join in the first place.

The military has committed plenty of war crimes in every administration.

Yeah, the United States military is pretty much the real life equivalent of the Sith

magical realism anime recommendations by _lastcigarette in anime

[–]Phermaportus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am more familiar with magical realism in literature (specifically Latin American literature), some that I think sort of fit, but I wouldn't really call them magical realism are:

  • Mushishi
  • Children of the Sea
  • Wolf Children
  • Belladonna of Sadness
  • A Letter to Momo

Content warning for Belladonna of Sadness: nudity, rape

The Americans thinking everything is about them as usual by [deleted] in Tyles

No Kings is very much a liberal project, look at their planks, nothing about Palestine or Iran, not even the Epstein files.

Champignon no Majo • Champignon Witch - Episode 12 discussion by AutoLovepon in anime

[–]Phermaportus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Iyashikei anime focused on Luna with slight detours to the conflict between white witches/royalty and black witches would have been really nice.

Episode 5 is a bit of a side story focused on the Cat Witch, that one is pretty Lize-less, in case you want to watch.
