The labor strike episode was a baseball bat to the face if you know what you're looking for because it all maps perfectly to a Marxist analysis of capitalism. Traditional magic is capital accumulated through say, feudalism, which the magical servants need to survive while the witches command the vast bulk of it just to have literal power. The crisis is only temporarily resolved by introducing a new mode of production for magic represented by the digital magic form, which is the industrialized capitalism that can eventually supplant traditional forms of power. That both forms are also revealed to literally exploit the surplus magical value of the masses makes it map to Marxism 1::1.

i only watch American Influenced Anime, like "The Dragon Prince" or the new "She-Ra" because it's empowering and doesn't have weird big anime titties and bad uncomfortable sexual plotlines

THS posted:is it actually good? i've been hesitant to introduce it to my friendgroup No. It's not good at all. The best parts are Karl and Friedrich bro'ing out and talking philosophy, but it's mostly hagiographic pablum that papers over a lot of the most important parts of Marx's life and thought because they only produced like 7 episodes. If your friends are otaku freaks that love any anime no matter what then you should recommend it, but nobody else would be impressed or find it interesting. THS posted:also where do I get a good copy of it? the episodes are uploaded to youtube, but I'm not sure which channel has English CC.

Pener's critique of Castlevania is correct, but he is also free to strike me with a flying guillotine for saying that Carnivale should have received its final two seasons. edit: I agree with him in that it winked a little too much at the camera, but I disagree that it was too full of itself. it was adequately full of itself right down to Trevor Belmont trying to kick Alucard in the balls Victory Position fucked around with this message at 07:46 on Mar 23, 2019 |
