For the anime anons.
Anime is Degenerate. We must deal with this problem of our youth.
There can be fine anime entertainment, LoGH is the best possible example for its case, but we must accept that the majority of anime is degenerate, 99% of it. And we must acknowledge the common ridiculousness of it too, as a sort of degeneracy. For to make a man ignore such a thing, just general stupidity or sometimes perverseness(as common with anime), and "try to like it" is degenerating effect.
Such common ridiculousness, and its lonely cult of immature men;-- We all remember our cherished childhood investments, and this is fine when it is a cherished childhood, and not lived into adulthood. For make no mistake, the man that got into anime as a teenager and has grown up with it no less faltering in his often obsession, and love of it, is no different from the boy who grew up with his comic books and cartoons and never outgrew it. Perhaps there is the level of degree in which the weab is above the soiboy, but small matters of degree. Where the more "seriousness, violence" of anime(, has also in itself its common perverseness) , may allow a greater ease to which an adult can enjoy it, but it's still a ridiculousness, or embarrassment(of fatherly virtue), no less when he considers himself a committed watcher of anime, and we are speaking even irrespective of the perversity.

And the actual topic of appreciating it, any supposed depression from anime, or a depressive character about it; that is, an impact from anime, is more the result of a mind zapped of its intellectual rigour, by his over devotion of his energies onto this emptiness -- wherein he must create something or lower himself to it -- , from focusing on unsymbolic forms for too long, an adjusted state to its type of language, mostly meaningless shapes which we must "learn" to understand. Take NGE for example, they the creators have to make up the lack of content in the show with explaining and more complicating monologues(not to say what they're saying is complex itself, but it feeds into the whole of the show), the only reason it's an anime with such value that it does have for an anime is because of such explorations in the medium.
But continuing, we must "get past" the silliness and stupidity to "appreciate it". The drawing style itself, with its big eyes, is stupid and made for little girls, arising out of the sedated and in many ways feminised post-war Japan, these are the shows that children watched. And there is nothing wrong with that, the original cartoons, like an Astro Boy(though of a racially different motivation to us, and as result in many ways emotionally incomprehensible as like many other cases from its country), which is similar to a Mickey Mouse. But we have as of yet, and do not intend to, actually go into detail of that 99% of anime, wherein there is an active force of perversity, consciously directed in such a way, and not by subconscious structures.

And the soiboy problem always comes back to the feminine, there is no blame for a man being physiologically feminine, but there is a blame for him to not try to self improve. And for him to willingly neglect himself to such a lowering thing. I remember the completely foreign character it had on my understanding in its every look and pronunciation when I first watched it, but I went through all the supposed "good" anime and after trying it all, I have only recapitulated my original beliefs of its oddness and pointlessness, though as I have said some may be fine entertainment. Cinema is a lazy modern medium, and limited by this, even after it has been championed by the midwit during the twentieth century as something better or more unique than it is; Anime is the even more so lazy medium.
So what do we do about its disturbing influence on the minds of so many? Do they not read?

Every single point you make is undermined by the fact that you think LOGH isn't an immature show for teenage boys. It's on the same level as Evangelion. When I see nerds on this site whining about how they're too smart for anime it just sounds like a little kid whining about how he's too smart for Barney.

I never said LOGH wasn't a show for young teens.

I liked it. The "Third Impact" sequence is fantastic, 10/10, but everything else is just ok
Adrian Sanders
it's pretty well done in everything it does honestly, something new in the animation is always catching my eye if I ever go back for a rewatch (which is rarely but I see clips or webms from time to time)
Adrian Anderson
Yeah I think it is animated well but 25' by itself doesn't have anything that makes me say that it is great. 26' gets a little bit pretentious with the real life sequence in the middle but I would say it is the better half

I love Rei :)

Ngl, the strong female warrior stereotype in anime is incredibly stupid and played out.

I've seen NGE, and your point doesn't really deny it.
Mason Perez
besides episode 7 and ritsuko being smart, it's not really that bad. Gendo and SEELE (the men) are still the ones in full control of everything

Again, I'm not saying it's something domineering over the story (other than there being a point of Shinji's inability before the female, but that's something different from the anime "stronk woman soldier" thing altogether), but it is there. It's just obvious that NGE is a cartoon at the end of the day, and not only has some of the stupid tropes of modern pop-culture, but also in cartoons, and even worse in anime. Such as "stronk woman going into war," it's just ridiculous and a stupid part of a cartoon.
Alexander Allen
NGE was made to be eye candy, it doesn't really invalidate any themes or narratives just because it has stronk womyn
