    “Anime is Christian” anime uses what is basically blasphemy constantly, a veneer of Christian aesthetic for the purpose of a plot or character. That’s how you get a “vampire hunter” adorned with crosses and saying jumbled church Latin. The Catholic Church would never admit vampires are real. These people are tourists about Christianity. And anime. Life in general. A fucking dandelion floating on the wind.

      It’s so pathetic too, like tr—y has some oomf to it but like tr–n just feels so lackluster. First time i ever saw it used unironically was glinner (57 years old) calling a 17 year old it on his blog because he had an argument with her

        Anyone caught using 4chan language as an adult should be mocked and their heads put into a toilet. The only exception I’m make is the word based, but only if you’re calling actually good things based

          Rickroll, kino, creepypasta, weeaboo and some derivations thereof, troll, brony, waifu and husbando, rules 34 and 63, MFW, muh, fedpost, zoomer, coomer, copium, consoom, cumbrained, god tier, and vidya are some other terms originating in chan culture that I think have become more or less fully normalized in broader Internet culture if not culture in general. Also, Lil B came up with based (albeit with a different meaning than what 4chan eventually twisted it into), show him some respect.

    Please CW for transphobic slur.

    One piece season 2 is campy and the pacing feels off at some points but it’s really fun and I love seeing people (see: navy fash) get murdered in horrible ways because oda would never.

    One Piece is one of the wokest pieces of media I’ve ever seen come out of Japan. These people are hilarious.

    Not an anime but I was reading reviews for the new Spartacus House of Ashur series, and some people were skewering it for being too woke for having a black gladiatrix be the star, saying the creators had forgotten what made the original great. Spartacus, the series about a slave rebellion, with like 3 aggressively gay relationships with on-screen sex scenes, with a black woman slave who becomes one of their main fighters. Just wild trolling from people who were watching (if they watched it all) with one eye on the TV and the other lodged on Facebook right-wing rage bait on their phone.
