Anime is unchristian.

It promotes all sorts of degenerate sexuality and it represents men as weak and women as strong at the men's expense.

Anime is like candy, only that instead of rotting your teeth it rots your brain.

Clannad is the best that's explicitly about family life but loving families are common in anime even if the show isn't explicitly about that. Castle Town Dandelion for example has a huge loving family with a mom and dad and nine kids who all help each other with chores. You are more likely to see a loving intact family unit and idyllic scenes of a things like a housewife cooking breakfast for her kids in the morning while the dad reads the paper in anime than in modern western media.

Pornography is inherently sinful. Anime is just a medium, it isn't required to have perversion, etc., to be anime. It just has to be a Japanese animation. Obviously this medium can contain both good and bad things.

>WRONG look at older animes Nd yhey havr just as much sodomy as new ones. And plus when do you hear these weeaboo faggots talking about old anime? NEVER! Their anime images they post are all modern gay shit

So don't watch the ones that promote sodomy.

>And what values are that?? Why watch something just because it agrees with you? If you need to then guess what buddy… READ THE BIBLE

Often anime portrays much healthier male-female relations and family relations than Western media. Girls are expected to cook, if a girl is a bad cook it's poked fun at. If a woman dates around it is regarded negatively. Often when homosexuals appear it is as comic relief because for example an effeminate stereotypical man in drag is coming on to the main character and he is rightly disgusted by and afraid of this. Compare this to Western portrayal of homosexuals which is always positive. The elderly are seen as wise and respected. Compare to Grampa Simpson. Older siblings are expected to take care of their younger siblings. Of course there are exceptions because anime is just a medium.

You are like someone pointing at American Psycho and saying novels are bad.

Brain scans of a man reading vs consuming watchable media are entirely different.

Watchable media puts the viewer in a relaxed state very susceptible to subliminal and programming messages.

Watchable media is one of the great feedback loops that drove society at large so away from critical thinking and God.

Well he said "name one" so I did. It's like with any kind of secular entertainment, there are a lot of problems with it but there are also usually some good things about it too.

I disagree with your weird and stupid Puritanical/Luddite views. Again, would you say all novels are bad because some are bad? What makes watchable media different? Yes most (Western) watchable media is shit, that's because of the people producing it, not because it is inherently bad. Do you think old movies and TV shows from the '40s and '50s are all immoral? If not, then you must acknowledge that the medium itself is not the problem. A mature Christian can also separate the good from the bad, and watch something that portrays a few bad things without embracing those elements.

From Mein Kampf, chapter 11- Race and People

>If beginning today all further Aryan influence on Japan should stop, assuming that Europe and America should perish, Japan's present rise in science and technology might continue for a short time; but even in a few years the well would dry up, the Japanese special character would gain, but the present culture would freeze and sink back into the slumber from which it was awakened seven decades ago by the wave of Aryan culture. Therefore, just as the present Japanese development owes its life to Aryan origin, long ago in the gray past foreign influence and foreign spirit awakened the Japanese culture of that time.

> But if it is established that a people receives the most essential basic materials of its culture from foreign races, that it assimilates and adapts them, and that then, if further external influence is lacking, it rigidifies again and again, such a race may be designated as 'culture-bearing,' but never as 'culture-creating.' An examination of the various peoples from this standpoint points to the fact that practically none of them were originally culture-founding, but almost always culture-bearing.

There is a name for anime that's degenerate and sexual: "hentai" (jap translated means "pervert"). But that's a class of its own. Most anime is not like that. You don't find cultural marxist poison and nihilism sprinkled in anime.

Like a clockwork, yet another anti-anime thread. It's like there is an organized campaign. That's not such a far-fetched notion, given the recent revelations about the tranny campaign on /r9k/ and various other boards, as was also reported here on /christian/. Apparently the interracial and cuckoldry porn campaigns on /pol/ and other boards were organized too.

Shill 1: Posts a repetitive gay thread with an anime pic.

Shill 2: Posts a formulaic >gay thread >anime picture style comment.

Rinse and repeat.

It's like there is an organized campaign to promote degeneracy, and one aspect of it is trying to push people away from healthy forms of entertainment like good anime. You aren't expected to spend all your relaxation time reading the Bible and Bible commentaries, right? Californian animation is deep into degeneracy posed in ways that seem child-friendly. Apparently Steven Universe for example is all about genderless lesbian gem creatures (plus a human character), and there was an an anti "fat-shaming" furor in the fandom so big and vicious that it spilled over to general e-fame, because the merest imagined implication that fat cartoon character might look better thin was seen as a horrible offense, no matter how unintentional. (This is your brain on Californian animation.) Also I have a young niece, so I ended up seeing a few Disney princess movies and noticed some very bad messages.

Indeed, the whole weeb tranny/prison gay thing on imageboards was definitely engineered by outside forces. However, at the same time the hentai genre also has a lot of focus on trannies and shemales. The imageboard weeb culture was always vulnerable to this sort of subversion, precisely because they were already overflowing with degeneracy and perversion. Even if you ignore the homo stuff, the overwhelming majority of imageboard weebs glorify pornography.

> one aspect of it is trying to push people away from healthy forms of entertainment like good anime

Nobody NEEDS anime. There are indeed some anime and manga that are perfectly harmless, but it is no threat to the forces of evil. There is no benefit for the powers that be to discourage people from participating in weeabooism, because for most individuals choosing to be a weeaboo results in degeneracy. The weeaboo subculture was terrible in 2004 and it's considerably worse now. There is no reason whatsoever for the powers to be to oppose its existence.

People benefit from relaxation and entertainment as a necessary counterweight for work and studying. When talking about audiovisual entertainment, good anime ranks remarkably well on the healthiness scale compared to a lot of other things.

There are anime and manga that have good moral messages. There are anime and manga that uplift and give hope. Some anime and manga even show Christianity in a positive light. The enemy is opposed to these things.

>There is no benefit for the powers that be to discourage people from participating in weeabooism, because for most individuals choosing to be a weeaboo results in degeneracy.

Pushing Christians out from liking anime changes the anime-liking demographic so that good anime gets less attention in the West and degenerate behaviors increase.

Think: Which form of animation shows beauty today? Isn't beauty good?

>it represents men as weak and women as strong at the men's expense.

Anime is not as bad as western cartoons in terms of gender representations, especially when talking of weak men and strong women:

Billy and Mandy:

Mandy (the female) is the power figure of the show. She exhibits unnatural strength as well as intelligence whereas Billy (the boy) or Grim (Grim Reaper) are less intelligent and weaker than her.

Simpsons:

Homer and Bart are very unintelligent and commit many foolish mistakes throughout the series. Marge and Lisa are highly intelligent while Marge especially is the power figure of the house (as evident by the fact that she forces Homer to sleep on the couch whenever she's angry).

Legend of Korra:

The main character is a strong female that exhibits little to no femininity to the extent that her character's gender could've been changed to that of a man with (presumably) little loss to the storytelling. This is especially noteworthy considering that the character is a lesbian.

Loud House:

There isn't much of a problem in gender roles in this show apart from the fact that homosexual relationships are openly shown and represented as normal by the show itself. We learn that a sister of Lincoln is a Lesbian and that Lincoln's black friend has gay parents.

From my own experience I haven't seen politically-correct manipulation to this extent in anime. If anime deserves to die, then cartoons deserve to be executed by a firing squad.

At least the last anti-anime vs pro-anime argument had SOME pretensions to intellectual discussion.

Now we're back to the same old stale standbys:

>All animation is inherently for kids because mainstream society says so! Grow up!

Even theough mainstream society's opinion on animation was influenced by the dark age of animation that lasted from the 1950's to the 1980's in the first place, and before that, animation was a medium for adults:

>please read my super special post

There is no regular state of consciousness: it constantly shifts depending on what you're doing and how you're doing it. You're entering borderline trancelike states every day as you do mundane shit like showering, driving to work, )and yes, reading books) and the only reason you haven't noticed yet is because the transitions are so seamless. People like Milton Erickson have also discovered that it's possible to instantly hypnotize someone by interrupting or confusing someone while in the middle of an automatic motion like shaking someone's hand or bending over to tie your shoelaces because the brain has no idea how to respond and shits itself.

As for suggestibility, even in hypnosis it isn't possible to outright make someone do something they don't want or something against their morals: you'll just wake up the subject and piss them off. It is possible to gradually shift what a person wants, given enough time, but is more a matter of subtlety than abusing trance states and doesn't even require hypnosis in the first place.

You are suggestible if you vegetate your way through life and never question anything, whether you watch talmudvision or not. Despite your statement it's also very possible to vegetate in front of a book and be slowly programmed the same way (there's loads of normalfags who vegetate while reading, if you read to fall asleep you're doing it too), the only real advantage literature has here is that the fairly small population of dedicated readers are taught to read attentively and critically while the average moviegoer or radio music listener was taught nothing of the sort. Your state of consciousness shifts no matter what you do or what media you consume, the key to avoid becoming the brainwashed goyim is as simple as paying attention to everything you do and honestly examining your beliefs.

Of every form of media I've looked at, Japanese animation and vidya are actually really winnie the pooh light on programming unless you count the Japanese government's clumsy attempts at convincing NEETs to marry and reproduce. Nips more or less make what they like while being honest about it.

Lets be real here, your burger or floorboards aren't showing you sexually immoral pictures of women most of the time, nor introducing you to themes of theosophy either. Not that it's exclusive to Anime, it's in all media, but that doesn't invalidate it either.

"Decoding" stuff based off eastern folklore and literature with a western conspiratorial lens is a bad idea. It was retarded when evangelicals did it to Pokemon (dreamed up by an autistic bug collector who mixed his childhood hobby with Japanese folklore) and it's still retarded when some Youtuber tries interpreting some mangka's riff on Journey to the West as satanic programming or whatever this tl;dr Youtube video is on about.

Really, multi-part Youtube "documentaries" and analysis are cancer and 99% of them could be easily summed up with an infograph or a shorter video under 10 minutes if it was scripted and edited by someone competent, which your video probably isn't since it comes from a channel which gave us masterpieces such as "TACO BELL WANTS YOU TO JOIN THE BELLUMINATI" and vid related, a half-hour rant about how blacks were the real native americans.

There's a big difference between these two. The majority of any medium (especially nowadays) is trash, but that doesn't mean we can't or shouldn't enjoy what's good.

How do you even justify being on an imageboard? Nevermind the fact that English language imageboards were initially created by and for weebs, but how can you condemn all anime yet contribute to a forum format/subculture that's largely filled with degeneracy?

That's a generalization, you should judge a video by it's own content. Pastor Anderson is a good example of this, yet Marching to Zion is still a good Documentary regardless.

It's been awhile since I watched the good seasons of the Simpsons but isn't Bart, at least in the older seasons, displayed more as a delinquent vs just a dumb kid? Homer being weak is a fair point but at least with older Simpsons Bart is closer to a weak link in that argument. Everything else is 100% on the dot though. tfw I kinda want to be an animator but the western industry is so degenerate, it's pointless to even try.

inb4 try anyways to be a shining spot in the industry. The industry is filled to the brim with controlling Jews that want nothing more then the destruction of anything white or Christian which is why 99% of shows being made are shit and is also why there is no heart in the shit being produced. See steven universe for the perfect example. The work they put out is shit, the retarded Jew that heads has a clear faggot agenda, and the art and animation suffers due to the lack of any soul.

Thats a fair point. The problem is really that you'll have zero support. The biggest problem is that you'll have to get past the networks to just get your thing funded and networks won't fund you because whatever you have isn't on the agenda. Any good piece of animation will cost a crap ton to get out timely and these groups won't fund something that costs so much if it negatively effects them on a political level (ie something thats wholesome and or not shit) even if it makes them a good amount of money (which TV animation does not at the moment). Having a third party fund you might work but that is not likely in the slightest considering the costs and something like youtube is unreliable due to the amount of money you can make per minute animating is not sustainable (You can get away with it if you make enough off something like patreon but thats unrealistic for most animation outside of porn and those gosh darn channels that are glorified blogs that are not animated like that jaden"animations" and vid related).

>>636169

Cool channel, but to be a negative Sally that doesn't solve the issue. The guys who make this still have to live off of the freelance they do and their patreon is only making them a little bit under 300$ per video which for animation is unsustainable especially in Japan. Just because the resources are there it doesn't mean it's realistic for really for anyone to be able to do this in the long term. Look at literally every single big youtube animator. Most of them have moved on because youtube and other sites doesn't make them enough money (unless you are drawing porn like redminus) and they could care less. Hell several of them moved on to playing gosh darn video games instead of animating because it makes them more money (see game grumps with egoraptor quiting animating altogether, Chris O Neal slowing his pace until he started work again on something not too long ago and oneyplays for the biggest examples). It's a sad state of affairs and I don't see it getting better without a massive overhaul of our current society. But that would never happen because the people around us are complacent retards who are too lazy or uncaring to revolt.

Excuse me for being so negative, I hate being alive and I can't enjoy the things I care about any more. Computer industry is shit and the Animation industry is shit and I piglet hate it so much.

>You can't have artistic freedom and live off it's money.

Unfortunately that's the trade off of money for freedom. It depends on what you personally want out of animation, if it's a job that pays well, there must be a studio you can join that relates to you in some way, or do you want to the artistic freedom make something?

> It's a sad state of affairs and I don't see it getting better without a massive overhaul of our current society. But that would never happen because the people around us are complacent retards who are too lazy or uncaring to revolt.

Don't try to change the world, and realize that whatever the ((world)) does often is reactive to the people in it, even if it's following an agenda. You don't need to solve the apocalypse to animate a cartoon.

>Excuse me for being so negative

It's fine to be realistic, and I'm not saying you're wrong about the awfulness of the world, but that you're losing focus of what is important, your goal.

One example would be Cave story, and how it went from a free game into a popular game sold on modern consoles. The band Anal Cunt was some guys with day jobs. I would recommend reading their wiki. I'm not recommending the band, more so to read into how they started small while working other jobs for money but still being able to accomplish what they wanted.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anal_Cunt

>The band's first performance was in 1988 at Putnam's mother's house in front of some family members, namely his mother, his two little brothers and his grandmother, as well as some of his mother's friends.[6] Several other small performances followed, in various basements and living rooms, before their first public show live over the radio at Brandeis University, with Anal Cunt being the latest in the long line of Putnam's bands who had performed in this way. This was scheduled to be the band's first and last show. Putnam invited future member Fred Ordonez, from the band Shit Scum, to the show, but he failed to turn up. As a result, it was arranged for the two bands (Anal Cunt and Shit Scum) to play a concert together so Ordonez could see Putnam's band, and a further show was arranged at Shit Scum's rented practice warehouse. The first demo was recorded on a 4-track in April in his mother's attic but this has never been mixed, released, or heard by anyone outside of the band members themselves.

Yes, you can't live off the money, but you can accomplish it. That's not even getting into the crowd funding resources that we have today with.

That strict lady practicing bdsm on the girl that we have to see naked in every episode. How many times do we have to hear the same joke about the robot kids genitals? The show is degenerate and I should have been suspicious of the fact that only non-christian recommended this show to me.

Why do people have such a problem with ribald humor? Or even sin being shown as long as it's in a bad light.

Now, the cross-dressing was a negative to be sure since the main characters didn't seem repulsed by it.

The BDSM tie-up stuff was certainly meant to titilate the audience so, again, will accept that as a big negative.

However, what's wrong with jokes about the robot's functioning genitalia or his reaction to girls. I mean, that's heterosexual and normal and he's embarassed by his lack of control, not flaunting it.

It's important to remember sex does not equal bad, rather, perverted sexual stuff equals bad.

Natural curiosity and acknowledging the awkward reality of the teen sex drive isn't degenerate and trying to make even that degenerate will turn everyone into closet perverts like the Victorian-era sexual repression did. At least, that's my take.

I just think it's obnoxious and tasteless to endlessly joke about the kids genitals. I agree that acknowledging the awkwardness of puberty is fine, but when a grown man forcibly pulls down the kids pants to check out his ball, I'm repulsed. I would respect the show more if it addressed the issue in a subtle way rather than just blurting out the word "penis" multiple times and expecting me to laugh.

Just my two cents, but the fanserivce was always there, although entire shows weren't based around it. I think it was because they were seeing what sticks, so quality over quantity, now that moe sells they can focus on quantity. It also has to do with Japanese culture, they have had paintings of women having sex with octopuses, and waifus on their jets, and doujin before WW2. They see sex as a commercialized treat, completely dehumanized every physical and emotional aspect of dating. Their reserved culture has allowed this, just as the West's individualist culture is used against it, japans reserved unity shares the same treatment. The SJW in japan exist, they just don't censor media, instead they choose it over men.

Anime is there to profit off of the gender gap/otaku industry while giving you instructive symbolism. D&C the genders, then make money off the people lost in the media, just like in music, video games, television, internet. The reason why we have feminist trying to campaign for censorship, why suicide squad was released alongside The New Ghostbusters, to motivate people to buy something that offends or replaces the other, to take out their frustration on the other gender's gifted evil reputation and approval.

This is such a false equivalence. If you had said going to a sportsball game then I might agree.

Watching a play or any kind of theatrical act is first of all social. You are amongst other people, engaging with the action going on before you. You laugh, cheer, clap, heckle or whatever, in unison with others, and the players on stage can even interact with you as the crowd. You are really immersed in the good sense, your belief is suspended and you are wholly involved in what is going on. If you don't like it, you can leave, which in TV terms more often than not just translates to changing the channel, not switching the damned thing off altogether.

You are also inhibited, meaning you are only there for a few hours (at most) before going on to do something else, so unlike with TV, you can't just sit there all night pigging out like a disgrace.

Deal with it. TV, phones, tablets and computers (especially when all of these are connected to the net) are actually toxic. Even if TV addiction is rooted in the same problems as alcohol addiction (i.e. a biological predilection and is not inherently addiction as a substance itself) it's a propaganda machine that ought to be avoided at all costs.

>What's going on in Japan?

Roughly since the end of Japan's self-imposed isolation in the aftermath of the nation's encounter with Commodore Perry, Japan's de facto god has become "work and productivity for it's own sake."

The Japanese people's fanatical autistic-level work ethic has enabled them to go from a third-world backwoods country perma-stuck in medieval times, to a first-world economic and technological powerhouse in a frighteningly fast amount of time, all things considered.

It has only cost them the low low price of their humanity. Whether it be non-existent childhoods taking a backseat to hellish cram schools, salary men dropping dead in their mid 30's from working themselves to death, or the the literal commodification of every aspect of the human relationship experience, as perfectly illustrated in the Vice mini-doc.

The proliferation of Otaku/NEET/Hikikomori culture is simply a symptom of above. Such individuals take a good look at the aforementioned culture and basically say "Winnie the Pooh this; I'm out."

Considering that Japan's society is the logical end of Capitalism void of religious/spiritual/higher values to keep it in check, I guesstimate that the lower amount of NEETs in the West is the product of our lack of Japan's over-the-top work and education culture to speed up the process.

In other words, most first-world capitalist cultures divorced or gradually divorcing themselves from religion are just Japan in slow-motion.

On a related note, there is an excellent episode of the anime TV version of Galaxy Express 999 that is a biting satire on this exact phenomenon.

The episode is called "The Souls of Professionals" and portrays the stereotypical Japanese work ethic as literally reducing human beings into mindless repetitive robots:

Religion in Japan for most, whether Buddhist or Shinto, is just window dressing, habit and tradition for it's own sake, void of substance.

In other words, your garden variety nihilism/paganism.

I watched the whole first season…children being stripped naked and beaten, a lot of sexual content, borderline pedophilia, nihilism, characters with suicidal tendencies, lewd undertones…cross-dressing is the least of concerns with that show.

>>639590

I liked the show, yet I think at times the people behind it enjoyed the depravity of it, not just the delving into it as a surgeon would do when doing an autopsy but rather the joy of a necrophiliac dissecting a body for the pleasure of the act in itself.

Because I agree, the descent into the abyss is a reflection of man itself going deep inside the recesses of its whole being in search of something he or she has lost; but the show focuses on some of these morbid aspects in the wrong way.

I don't agree since the crossdressing is pedophilic in nature. The show has a habit of involving the child characters in various kinds of fetishism. Made in abyss is pedophilic, don't see how anyone can like it while being aware of this fact.

It's the human nature, sadly…some of us are aroused and attracted by death, abuse and perversion. I know I am one of those people. But the seed of that evil is planted in all of us, together with the seeds of redemption which can drive us away from those dark desires.

We all have a fascination with what disgust and frighten us (hence why we "enjoy" horror movies and other scary events or even sadomasochistic activities in which we inflict or receive pain). Now, it's how you approach these topics and how you want to delve into their cause and effects that matters a lot: you can pull the roots out, dig around them to make them exposed to the world or actively feed them.

I think there are interesting aspects to all of them, but as Christians we are called to keep them at bay and fight against them; we can investigate and "study" them, but we have to thread carefully around such things, for we can end up in a Nietzsche quote: “He who fights with monsters should look to it that he himself does not become a monster . . . when you gaze long into the abyss the abyss also gazes into you”; and the core question and topic of investigation of Made in Abyss is indeed this scary yet alluring question/fact. My beef is in how the anime tackles it, in its tone and how it delivers on the answers at times. One of the best yet most dangerous characters is the one who appears at the end of the series, Nanachi: she is an hollow, someone who is a soul lost in a body without shape due to the effects of trying to go out of the abyss too fast, which imprints the layers of this dark void onto the body and melts it away, into a shapeless abomination. Her only friend, Mitty, sacrificed herself to let her keep most of her humanity intact, and thus she's lost in a "limbo" between humanity and the state of hollowness of the others who fell victim to the deepest curse of the Abyss. But she has suicidal tendencies and has done terrible deeds to find a way to "free" Mitty's soul from the mangled body she's trapped into, trying to free her sole friend's soul…the ramification of such desire are terrible: euthanasia as the most evident, but also the fact that, for a loved one, she has killed ans experimented on humans, and the show leaves (for the moment) no clear position on whether or not she's right or wrong. She surely seems desperate to kill Mitty, and in the end she succeeds through the help of the android Reg: she cries in despair while also later saying she's happy her friend is free…quite disturbing topics.

Again, the juxtaposition of children and horrors dwelling an abyss, of a creature which looks like a cute bunny but has a dark and cold mentality…those are interesting and powerful themes, but they are often used in that show to provide more shock than an actual answer to burning questions, and surely it's something that we, as a (for now still) Christian culture, find repulsive. And yet, attractive in a dark, despicable way..(I'd make a parallel between this show and Ugo Iginio Tarchetti's novella "la Fosca", where the main character falls in "Love" with a sickly and kinda unpleasant to look lady for the same morbid reasons for which we cannot stop looking at a disfigured victim of a fire, but I think that would be redundant after an already pedantic "analysis" of that show)
