i dont like shows that have lots of fanservice in them

If you consider "a lot of fanservice" to be something like Queen's Blade or Girls Bravo, then no. It's not like that.

There's more jokes about sex than actual fanservice, I'd argue. There is a difference.

They also had Yukari narrate the Japanese trailer. This is a movie where the tank crew gang-rapes a woman offscreen and kills a German soldier who is begging for his life while holding pictures of his family. What the gently caress were they thinking?

This movie is about tanks. There's an anime about tanks. Let's get some otaku yencoins.

All the girls in it are wearing typical anime fetish outfits but so far that's all.

Did people called the movie out for advertising on World of Tanks, a game where like 1/5th of the userbase is made out of neonazis?

hahaha oops

Maybe I should check out that Maria anime because I loving loved Taniguchi's work on Planetes. The Planetes manga was written by the Vinland Saga mangaka, and you can tell how much Yukimura has improved since. Meanwhile, Taniguchi added so much more to Planetes, like better characterisation, as well as some beautiful technical design.

Most wouldn't jam the comedic parts together with a bleak overview of PTSD and war crimes.

Dark comedies or drama films with moments of levity is still different then mashing a film entirely about how awful war is with cute girls driving tanks.

Oh blow it out your butt. I said different and I meant different. I don't think anything will change, period.

I'm not really digging a lot of the pandering poo poo that's happening right now, and that's aimed at dudes. When things shift, I still won't really care for the pandering aside from nerd tears because "where'd the panties go???:qq:"

I was condescending because it was a conversation held with my sister, not because I'm Lord Anime the 4th. Sorry I upset you so much, friend.

Judging by old posts dug up through Google groups, 90s rec.arts.anime is exactly just like any online anime forum from the present. People love to complain about the exact same things they do now. It's kind of fascinating.

You seem like a fella who might enjoy a romance series but maybe not just a droll shojo. So why not have a taste of Octave! A fun, exciting romp in Tokyo following a failed idol who has no idea what to do with her life and winds up shacking up with a lesbian above a laundromat. Said failed idol may be a horribly depressed, kinda lovely/selfish person. Enjoy!
