It was a low effort response to someone that doesn't get the difference between using themes/aesthetics from fascists vs using actual slogans they popularized, and they didn't seem interested in actually discussing the difference.

the line in 86 was an odd choice by localizers but it made a weirdo have a hilarious meltdown so it is impossible to say if it is good or bad

Initial D is the only "sports anime" I've watched, though. Oh, both seasons of Megalobox are good if you haven't seen that. Reik has issued a correction as of 04:14 on Oct 11, 2021 |

Ashita no Joe is one of the most influential anime of all time for a reason, if you fancy something older. Haikyuu regularly gets rave reviews. If you don't mind weird fantasy sports, Gundam Build Fighters and Girls und Panzer are genuinely excellent.

At the risk of brining up the stuff I just tried to derail away from how weird is the Nazi poo poo in Girls und Panzer, because that’s one I was considering based on how goofy the premise is?

They're literally just schoolgirls playing a weird fantasy sport with tanks. Some rival schools are based on silly national stereotypes (the Americans are boisterous goofballs, the Italians are gigantic foodies, the French are LARPing Rose of Versailles, and so on), but that's as far as it goes. The protagonists are a scrappy underdog team using any tank they can get their hands on in a long-shot bid to save their school.

Cool. I saw descriptions mentioning stereotypes and that made me wary, but I’ll give it a go.

Yeah most people aren't interested in the distinction between using actual fascist aesthetics and using actual fascist slogans because it's a distinction you made up seemingly to justify getting mad at an anime you don't like but not an anime you do like.

The protagonists are a scrappy underdog team using any tank they can get their hands on in a long-shot bid to save their school. There was that one episode where one of the protagonists looked directly in to the camera and said "We must secure the existence of our people and a future for tank girls" though.

You're telling me 18-19th century Prussians walked around looking like this? Also, I like 86 and I plan on continuing to watch it, I just think this character is probably gonna suck.

As much as it’s verboten to badmouth LotGH I’ll say it’s not very leftist and is fact pretty lib. It’s pretty enamored with great man history for one, to the degree that actual material and economic factors are completely irrelevant. History is driven entirely by some idea of “virtue” and whether a society succeeds or not depends entirely upon if it’s leaders have enough virtue reserves. The idea that the masses might even have class interests is never even considered. And the eternal war that benefits no one, not even the ruling class, is kept going for nonsensical reasons instead of actual material ones. Like there’s no way a society that still uses loving serfdom for 90% of its population could last so long over a whole planet, much less half the galaxy during a total war. But LotGH has a super romantic view of authoritarianism being efficient and effective.

The tedious libness of 86 is 100x more annoying and offensive than the nazi poo poo. It's just not a very good show, not worth arguing about.

the annoying angry-about-nazis poster is totally right that anime in general absolutely has a weird trend of fetishizing nazi stuff and I think for the Japanese market and the japanese creators it’s innocuous-enough and fine overall but then there’s an uncomfortably large western audience of statue avis and loli anime avis who just absolutely revel in the sense of representation they project onto that stuff even if it’s somewhat apparent the author doesn’t think it’s good or cool there’s also a modern lib brain media obsession with pathologizing the villains until we empathize with them and make prequels about how “they were good people who became evil and we are all actually just misunderstood if only we could connect and truly empathize with one another we’d do away with war and misunderstanding 😌” I truly think if these mangaka had a better grasp on the way their attempts at grappling with these themes and characters were received by a not insignificant part of the western audience, they’d change their approach edit: it’s also totally correct that the west fetishizes the Hugo boss stuff and nazi themes in their own ways which have big issues too
