I thought my post wasn't too unreasonable in tone, if you see that as a "melt down", you're 100% reinforcing my point you weirdos

It's not that emotionally taxing to write out an opinion on the internet guys, particularly when it involves something as universally disliked as the sexualization of young characters in media

you're the ones that are not normal is what i'm trying to get you to understand

Bloodborne is my favorite anime because it's mostly free of dumb tropes, and yet it features a dude who has a fetish for dolls (but you know what, this works with the plot well, imma let it slide)

I also like Berserk but holy poo poo homie really loves his rape scenes and naked fairy bois

And this is all, from what I can gather, based on older styles of anime that were less blatantly pervy

Is Night in the Woods one of those games where my responses are subtly affecting the world state in ways I'm unaware of, or am I mostly just down for the ride?

It's a good story so far but hella depressing, as expected.

AFAICT there are callbacks and scenes you can miss out on, but the main storyline doesn't change, so you really shouldn't worry about it (do watch stars with Mr. Chaznokov when you get the chance, though)

The best anime I've seen in recent memory is Showa Genroku Rakugo Shinju. It is an anime following the job of two rakugo performers (i.e: A Japanese one-person storytelling form) during the WWII era and features no pedophilia or excessive over-the-top laser beams and is instead thoughtful, slow-paced, emotional and has incredibly well-done voice acting that carries the story.

http://www.crunchyroll.com/showa-genroku-rakugo-shinju

Anime exist that are about things besides people with giant swords or giant anime tits, because anime just means "animated things coming from Japan." Thank you and have a good day and also watch Rakugo because it's very good on its own merits, not because it is anime.

E: Yeah, anime does come in all sorts of genres and I really should dig up some non-tropey options because the few I've watched that aren't cancer have been extremely enjoyable, Berserk is already kinda getting tropey for me and am about halfway through the manga

This and 'March comes in like a lion' are both things from 2016/2017 that have been astoundingly superb. I can't think of too many dramas I've seen or read in recent years that I'd put above those two.

Got pulled over by the police, fiancee's getting a couple of citations we can't possibly pay for, car potentially got towed if our friend doesn't get there in time to drive it to us and if it got towed, that's another fee we can't possibly afford right now, and the citations were because the car wasn't inspected because the car doesn't pass inspection and would cost too much to actually get fixed up and legal and then my fiancee had a panic attack from being pulled over so we're sitting in the ER right now with her feeling suicidal and she's wishing she just had a job again and she's mad that her job offer she was so excited about had rescinded the offer an hour after giving her the start date and the whole thing is a mess and

Hey chat thread, I guess I've been living under a rock or some poo poo, because a remaster of Zero Escape: 999 + VLR is coming out this week for every system but the 3DS? Which kinda sucks since apparently they added quality of life features + full voice acting to 999, so it's kind of like the old DS version is pretty strictly inferior now? Oh well.

They added voices but without looking into the details I imagine that remake is going to be a weirdly gimped version of 999 because the narrative was tied to the hardware of the DS in pretty particular and important ways.
