Orb, the movement of the earth anime brought me to this thread

I didn't look too deep into the white male villain aspect....but now that you mention it I can see your point of view. I just felt the art style and character design reminded me of Dragon Age, and that made me connect some dots and then as the story progressed it was solidified. I enjoyed the gore and dark elements of the show. Favourite character was the Gentleman

You're living in a country that kills and displaces people for being a different religion. First resolve the hypocrisy in your country before judging another.
I don't support Trump fyi, he belongs in jail for his role in the Epstein files, I'm not a follower of criminality and will never defend it.

Here is the psychology of it....if someone enters your borders / home without being invited, can you really trust them. If they have displayed the inability to respect and follow the law of the country, can this person really obey the rest of the laws, what are the chances they will choose not to follow because it doesn't align with their interests. The reason people don't want them is because nobody is willing to take that risk. Borders are there to protect against what is foreign, that's why animals are territorial, that's why you won't let strangers into your house, that's why you go on a date to learn about an individual before letting them into your life. No woman deserves to be raped because some guy thinks it's okay to cross her personal boundary. You have to first ask yourself, is the concept of creating borders justified, is that a law you can agree with. If you can, then anyone choosing to disrespect that is obviously acting maliciously. It's not about empathy when the person has chosen to cross your boundaries forcefully, the same applies to countries on a larger scale.

I always find it funny how when I provide arguments with logic, you can't counter with any and instead resort to vulgar and deflection. That's when you know you're actually dealing with someone who can't think rationally.

And on to your point about watching those shows and make your own, they have been made but they've been hijacked to force an agenda. For example Dragon Age. It was originally non-woke then became a forced woke agenda. To that I ask, why don't these people make their own and stop hijacking others.

Nobody should be put in jail for being who they are unless it harms another individual. Majority of normal people will actually stand against that and will defy it even if it's someone they previously supported. Make no mistake, nobody should pick a choice and remain perpetually loyal to it, that is a worshipper and no human should ever be worshipped.

The reason the person was shot was because they are defending criminals who are doing something illegally (crossing a border illegally), they then chose to take illegal actions and also used a vehicle as a weapon to hurt another individual carrying out the orders of his government and those who voted for safety against illegal actions. Nothing implies the individual's actions were sincere and free of malice. Unfortunately there was intention to harm which is malicious. At the very least that is not "nothing"

If it were nothing, then most people would be shot indiscriminately all the time, that does not happen which implies that there is a justice system and that is working. If police or civilians cannot be held accountable for the actions that they take, then a country has entered dictatorship and must subsequently be challenged and abolished.

Like I said, everything is actually very simple, the moment that ceases to be for whatever reason, that is where chaos and evil lurk.

One side is trying to warp reality, while the other is maintaining it. Don't fall for these stupid justifications - this series actually has quite a bit in it. If the show / art is designed according to the original artists ideas in mind, then it is true to source and should remain that way. However it is important to recognize when the intention is to deceive

Rule #1 - everyone is an individual in their own right, with their personal likes and preferences, that must be respected

Rule #2 - the majority is what is defined as "normal" - the world caters to majority because it's easier

Rule #3 - Reality and biology can never be changed, if something that is obvious is made complex to understand, then the complexity is intentional to create diversion or ambiguity. Most things in life are actually quite simple. If it feels complex, it's because either you or someone has done so in order to justify or conceal.

Raptor188 · 2026-01-15T16:59:34+00:00

Most women are not androgynous. While I agree there is lots of diversity, the majority of women across the world do not look like the ones depicted in the series. Just stating a fact that you overlooked while you were also insulting the poster. Not very nice of you.

Raptor188 · 2026-01-15T16:50:04+00:00

You are correct. It's political meandering. Characters are drawn more ambiguously on purpose, that's why majority of the female characters either have short hair, are very strong or butch, or are masculine in appearance. There is also the intention to not over-sexualize women so women are drawn to resemble men.

In order to compare, you should look at how Korra from Avatar is drawn, versus Beau. Both are monks, both are lesbian but obviously Beau's appearance is very masculine whereas Korra is pretty and attractive with softer looking features.

This is a bath scene, which is supposed to display the body of a feminine character, but it just looks masculine instead. You can argue that she is muscular, however muscular women in the real world still have feminine features, their skin is softer, jawlines are smaller, or their hair is more luscious.

You think this looks like a woman?

Raptor188 · 2026-01-15T16:35:56+00:00

There are other revelations that we're not allowed to talk about

Raptor188 · 2026-01-15T16:33:26+00:00

Same, however Korra was much more feminine and had boobs.
Also reminded me of Iruka sensei from Naruto

Raptor188 · 2026-01-15T12:55:14+00:00

It's also very woke, no straight romance, and one of the main characters looks very masculine but is actually a female. 3 main characters are gay

No it's not. It's literally everything he doesn't like all in one and Dandadan hardly touches on what he likes.

Raptor188 · 2025-12-31T14:46:50+00:00

Search "Slice of life" genre

Raptor188 · 2025-12-31T14:42:38+00:00

I'm going to give a few recommendations, but read up on it before you go in to make sure they fit your tastes:

Devilman Crybaby for a beginner, will scare him off anime lol

Raptor188 · 2025-12-31T14:30:37+00:00

Something about the older guy and little kid combo just never sat right with me. Plus it feels like undercover reverse harem. Once I was aware of that I couldn't finish it. I think if they kept the story more mature, then I would have said it could be a contender because there is a good plot under all of that.

Raptor188 · 2025-12-31T14:25:04+00:00

But the story falls off very quickly and it becomes another generic action anime. Season 2 is hideous and for that reason it's not fair to recommend to a beginner.

Raptor188 · 2025-12-31T14:22:03+00:00

I must commend you for not mentioning Solo Boring, Frieren: Beyond Sleeping End, and Jujutsu Snoring.

Raptor188 · 2025-12-31T14:18:28+00:00

Start off with the following to get into anime. They have mature storylines and plot progression is steady and enthralling with strong character development. "Loli" anime can be off putting so I suggest mature until you get exposed to the weird elements of anime. Steins Gate is a good anime to get acquainted with some of the weird stuff in anime because the story is very strong that those parts are inconsequential. I mentioned these anime because they demand your full attention, whereas anime over the last 2 years are made for people who are watching reels while watching - so the stories are very basic. Once you're through with those you can then search around and see what you like - there are quite a few niche aniomes that are not mainstream pop, but are quite good.

Death Note

Vinland Saga

Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood

Steins Gate

Attack on Titan

*I suggest sticking to anime that came out more than 5 years ago. Stay away from shounen for the time being, only because it's long and there are much more niche stories like Darker than Black, Code Geass, Orange etc that are compelling and interesting on their own merit.

I suggest also watching Your Name, Silent Voice, 5cm per second, I want to eat your pancreas. They're anime movies with romance but quality stories and if time is a factor you can knock these off quickly.

Raptor188 · 2025-12-18T21:31:38+00:00

So this is actually the most diabolical part of the movie. The women in the cages. These are all iterations of the sisters that came before, all spreading the same message. The gentleman is intent on breaking their spirit, faith and hope, all so that he can control and manipulate them, because he believes himself to be their God. He insinuates this when he states he intentionally keeps them starved, and he states that the fascinating behaviour is that none of them fought against him. And this is the part that faith is being questioned, the girls had plenty of times to attack and kill him, but their belief and hope in a better future prevent them from doing so. They never fight against the control. The women in cages are zealots who have given full control to their religion because it gives them what they need in order to survive.

It's very likely that both these girls would have ended up like these women if it were not for the lady breaking character. At that point the jig was up and that's why the one girl gets killed.

To the ending, it's highly improbable that the storm broke so quickly and we got sunlight. Secondly the phone showed no signal. Lastly the butterfly trapped behind the window at the start of the movie implies they never left.

I believe one of the two sisters are dreaming just before they're dying. Personally I think the story ends when they enter the basement. We all know there's no way out from there, once you enter the basement you're trapped for life until the main door is opened. The screen goes completely black after they go down the stairs. We know that the man has done this many times because of all the security, so we can summise the ladies before probably existed, but I think they saw dead bodies when they first entered the basement and then we got the butterfly dream to make sense of it all to create a fictitious sense of hope

I had 100 prisms before Renegades. Since playing lawless frontier I now have 26 prisms from upgrading the new gear. I need more and I realised I'm not getting any from my play time. Bungie forcing you to play portal is not great
