That bullet is going like 300-700 meters per second. She would have ripped her tits apart long ago.

>over the years dozens of artists spent their lives trying to legitimize the medium as an artform
>only to be met with huge titties dodging bullets, endless waves of recycled moeshit for pedophiles and shounenshit for manbabies
Anime is unironically curses.
Samuel Butler
Wrong. Firstly where does 820 m/s for the bullet come from? Does he know the bullet velocity from the gun? If so, actually proved a name rather than pulling it our of your ass. Secondly, you need anglesize the bullet and boob. You need to find out how far away the bullet is from the viewer and how when it'd reach you. You use the timeframe and how far her boobs moved to relative to the bullet = actual boob velocity.

You mean the place that loves shounenshit and ironic weeaboo tier trash like maid dragon and franxx?
If anything that's your home, not mine.

The kind of people who beg and cry for their hobby to be seen as a "legitimate art form" are always the kind of faggots who don't like anything for the sake of said thing and just want someone to tell them they're special for their hobby.

Did this scene happen in the manga too?
Caleb Campbell
No. If something retarded happens in HoTD it was typically anime original.
Aaron Reed
I accept your concession.
Nathan Long
huge titties dodging bullets is honestly closer to anime being "art" than some fags pushing hyperrealism as a goal onto itself.
Like the implication that just because something is absurdly unrealistic it must not be "artistic" is fundamentally flawed. Art is not restricted to realism after all.
Wyatt Gomez
The assumption that it's about realism and not endlessly appealing to the bottom of Maslow's pyramid is wrong.
Liam Jones
No, mangaka died so we'll never get a season 2 of this kino.
Jordan Fisher
Where exactly do you see most entertainment falling on Maslow's pyramid? I can see how art could reach the top for the artist, but for the viewers of art it's not like it normally reaches very high.
James Cruz
Most of it falls in the basic needs layers, some fall in the psychological and only a minority sits at the top.
The thing is that japanese animation, perhaps animation as a whole, is awfully tipped towards the bottom.
And when it comes to art, both the creator and the viewers do not matter.

Alright, but the entire HotD anime is predicated on appealing to the bottom of the pyramid, so why does OP's gif get singled out from the rest? I'd suggest it's entirely because of it's unrealistic absurdity.
Also i don't think Anime is particularly any worse about appealing towards the bottom than any other modern media. TV video games and movies are in general designed with more primal appeal in mind.
Jonathan Morris
Honestly I never liked the idea that anime all gets lumped into the same "THING" anyways. The only thing most of it has in common is that it's animated.
Gavin Russell
Yeah, it's kind of silly to say shows like Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei, Space Brothers, Naruto, and Highschool DxD are all in the same "group" known as Anime.
William Bennett
HotD wasn't singled out, it just happened to be the OP of the thread.
>TV video games and movies are in general designed with more primal appeal in mind.
And TV/film has its fair share of visionary geniuses that changed our notions of media as a whole. What do anime and video games have? Nothing. Some very good names that heavily influenced their respective mediums, undeniably so, but still nothing in comparison to film.
Connor Lee
It's part of why I hate telling people I'm an anime fan. I'm certainly not embarrassed and I don't purposely try and hide my power level or anything but if I say I'm an "anime fan" it feels like Im saying Im a fan because it's anime and less because the stuff I like happens to come out in a weirdly high volume from Japan.
Owen Cruz
"film" is a broader category than "anime" though. the equivalent would be something like "film vs animation" or "Japanese films vs Anime"
And Anime is more influential than you're giving it credit for. It's popular enough that other countries are mimicking it all over their animation industries.
The idea that Video games aren't influential is so absurd i'm not sure it's even worth discussing.
James Martinez
And let's be blunt, how much of "FILM" these days can even be considered high art. Nah the days of old Hollywood are gone. Now it's all corporate franchise and products. This modern era doesn't have it's Kane, Gone with the Wind or Spartacus. There's no Ben Hur, 10 Commandments. There's not even a Back to the Future and Ghostbusters and Jurassic Park have all become mockeries. Instead we get over budgeted super heroes fighting cartoon Purpleman. (I mean Thanos not the actual character Purple man)

Anime should be better divided between film and television. We hold live-action television to lower standards than film overall, so why not do the same for Japanese cartoons? Breaking Bad is okay as a TV show, but would (and did) make for a dogshit film. Evangelion is a decent show, but when Anno moved to film he actually treated End as an actual film rather than a 2-hour TV episode, so it works. Same with the Rebuilds, even if they're much lower-brow. Regardless of being animated, Millennium Actress is a good film. It happens to also be anime. A lot of anime is dogshit. This does not make Millennium Actress dogshit by association, but it makes it harder for Kon to be seen as an auteur when his work may be so easily lumped in with the likes of e.g. BnHA.
Angel Martinez
Anime has always been shit and only dumbasses that want to be able to talk about moeshit at the bar and not get looked at like a retard want it to be art
Jonathan Morales
Damn right, Marvel drone
Luke Cruz
I didn't say they're not influential or popular. I said they're not changing anything besides maybe how far technology can be pushed.
Where are the Kubricks, Antonionis, Tarkovskys and Hitchcocks of anime and video games?
The Platos, Sartres, Shakespeares and Dostoevskys?
People whose works and ideas changed the very course of human endeavors.
They're nowhere. I know anime has (had) Kon and that he was incredibly good, but did he even start a movement or a strive towards artistic pursuits in the medium? Not even, it's that dead.
True enough. But the point is that film does have works made by geniuses that shook our very notions of entertainment, storytelling and even the monomyth itself.

>Firstly where does 820 m/s for the bullet come from?
It's a 308 fired from an M14 so 820 m/s is about right depending on the ammo. Could be as low
