If you are even remotely worried about something like that, you should be using tor or a vpn anyway. Im gonna keep using it regardless but it would be nice to have an imageboard to talk about and share loli on since the atf forums are so autistic they put incel forums to shame, and you got to be a member to use them.

But more on topic, is explicit loli still globally banned? I don't see any notice of it in the global rules and faq anymore.

Thanks for replying.

Using long spears and throwing spears is a better strategy than melee.

Is her design Pebbles from The Flinstones?

Just a bump to announce that the OVA special has been subbed.

Harem. The entire point of them is originally to be adapted from dating sims/VNs with multiple girls, which doesn't really work. After a while, the genre started spinning off in it's own direction, often forgetting the entire point of the original games. The protag choosing one girl and the payoff from that.

Any anime where the MC is a scrawny brat between 14 and 16 years old that looks even vaguely like something from pic related. I used to tolerate them at some extent but once I realized how predominant they are I feel nothing but disgust when I spot one of them in some promotional art. I know the main focus of anime is escapism, but why am I forced to self-insert myself into a guy that is just as pathetic(if not worse) as my real self?

>>949921 (OP)

Highschool Dramaromcoms. Stuff like love is war.

Watching them feels like I'm reading one of those drama magazines for teen girls.

>The protag choosing one girl and the payoff from that.

I think that's the bigger issue with VNs going to anime. In the VNs 99% of the time you are exactly in the MCs shoes.

Watching the protag feels weird even though I'm know I'm supposed to be self-inserting.

This, around 18 I started really hating shitty MCs because they were completely unrelatable.

I like Diablo and Tomoki. MCs need test.

No, but good luck. She really is best girl.

Was I IMAGINING things or did the idol that inspired Kuromu look like Clara's mom? Maybe she's a graduated idol!

And for my breakdown (again, there's way more then this, but too busy/lazy to type out a better one and the twitter one I'll link is even more comprehensive anyways)

>I'm very happy that the archtecture we see in shots like 0:00 and 0:08 are painted and aren't just bare stone ruins. Actual Mesoamerican architecture and buildings was, in their heyday, richly painted and adorned with fine sculptural facades, reliefs, and friezes (see 1st pic); something which is ignored in 99% of media sadly. The accents near the roofs of the buidligns at 0:08 look Zapotec to me, but it really could just be a random geometric pattern.

>On the whole, though, this town we see early on is primarily Maya influenced: At both 0:08 and the second prior in the background, you can see an arched tunnel which I would assume is based on those found at a few Maya sites, but top me it looks most like the ones at Uxmal (I think). At 0:05 you can also see a Sculptural facade of what I assume is Chaac (the Maya rain god, analagous to the Aztec Tlaloc; both being an example of the googled/fanged rain god archtype, see second and 3rd pic) in the Puuc Maya style. The clothintg and hairstyles we see from 0:08 to 0:11 seems to be a mix of both actual Mesoamerican stuff (one of the women in the foreground from 0:10 to 0:11 has what I believe is an Aztec Axtlacuilli braid) and more generic things, but I think it all does still seem "mesoamerican" rather then generic tribal stuff.

>Using a Conch as a Trumpet as the guy does at 0:11-12 or so is also accurate; and the guy we see dead on the ground at 0:16 and from 0:19 to 22 seems to be wearing a Teotihuacano mask and headdress; I'll have to look into it later. Humorously the guy at 0:38 is wearing an Aztec Quechquemitl garment (see 4th pic, also shows the axtlacuili braid), which is, AFAIK, a thing only women wore, though you do see a woman wearing one while running way at 018. The "we made humanity 4 times before" line at 0:42 is a very clePost too long. Click here to view the full text.

cont:

>At 1:04 to 1:15 (interupted by a shot of what's obviously the Aztec god Teczatlipoca with his disitncively yellow and black face paint (see first pic) and mystic smoke; and the aformentioned skin peeling shot of the other divinity) Izel seems to be diving into a Cenote off another Puuc maya structure. Cenotes are basically columnar pits filled with water found in the Yucatan Penisula where the Maya were located, and were seen as entraces to the underworld. If you've seen the Road to El Dorado, you get the idea, thiough there the cenote was this massive whirlpool rather then a still pool.

>The shot at 1:21-22 is, IMO, really one of the best indication that the people working on the show really know what they are doing: There's not much in the shot, but it says a lot that the outfits the two characters in the backdrop are wearing are somewhat fantastical, particularly the girl; but still feel authentically mesoamerican. Obviously, plenty of other media have characters in similar outfits with big headdresses and such, but they almost always don't actually look like anythinng actually Mesoamerican and just a generic blend of a bunch of sterotypes of tribal and vaugely mesoamerican and andean stuff blended together to the point of losing any distinct cultural influence, wheras this is clearly and overtly actually influenced by Mesoamerican aeshetics I could pin down and talk more about (but I can't rn due to being busy)

>1:30-1:32 is both my and the aformentioned person I collabortate with's favorite shot in the trailer. We both absolutely fucking love that those goofy ass Aztec knives with the googley eye designs (see 2nd pic; though I think the specific design used in the show is from a depiction of a specific knife glyph i've seen before from a specific codex) got used for what I assume is the magical creature guide/helper character. It's fucking perfect Another anon caught this; but at 1:36-1:37 there's a shot of Quetzalcoatl in a human form, with the wind-conch shell crPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

how uch bounce is too much bounce?

is this too much?
