We need more women in STEM, and by that, I mean skateboarding, television, esports, and magic.
But what if the thing that appeals to me about Keijo is the insane concept and rampant horniness? It sounds like these shows are conventionally good

Keijo is loads of stupid fun. Maybe other shows are better are providing stupid fun, but it isn't like if you watch too much anime you die.

Watch them in Broadcast Order, by which I mean watch all of K-On first and then do the mismatched episodes of Haruhi. I've heard that's the best. I've only watched like 2 eps of K-On. and one ep of haruhi but close friends have recommended this order for maximum enjoyment.

i haven't watched the broadcast order of haruhi but release order is uh... an experience lmfao. all the endless eight episodes are back to back

endless eight has only ever been all together like that, it was one of the arcs that got added the second time around, not in the original run

It's like Prince of Tennis except instead of smashing a tennis ball and wiping out the dinosaurs it's Titty Hyponosis with a dash of butts glowing and turning super sayian

Keigo I mean. Also something about a butt cannon that splits the pool in half.

saki canonically takes place in a sci-fi alternate universe where gay marriage is legal worldwide and they've invented a scientific method for women to have children with each other. one of the main characters is a wacky short girl who loves tacos and is given the power to play mahjong better when she eats tacos. the reason she has taco super powers is because her aunt's girlfriend is from mexico and they all ate tacos together in her childhood

theres a saki character who can travel forward in time to see what is going to happen next turn. one time she tried to look forward two turns but collapsed and promised to never try that again, except when she's backed in a corner she reveals she's been training and looks three turns ahead. as a result shes hospitalized but its okay because she transferred a part of her power to her friend while she was resting her head on her lap, appearing to her as a mahjong genie that she can ask 3 times to peek into the future for her. they still lose though.

I love saki, I love tacos. I need to get back to reading it because it's so good the character actions and the mahjong powers.

it was weirdly dismissive of yuri, saying most of it was either 'murder lesbians' or 'purity lesbians' (she kept pointing at and framing the editing around Bloom into You as a latter example as well?? and grouping it with stuff like girls bravo) and that most yuri anime is "seinen" and made by dudes (ignoring the original manga authors) so she's not interested in yuri in general. and then she spent the last 10 minutes complaining about how the writer of madoka magica said "probably" rather than "yes" to a question about madoka and hamura being in love, in an interview that was doubly translated from japanese to german to english

I skimmed the video a bit and she does a demographic analysis by looking up the demo tags of the series listed on the wikipedia page for yuri...

which wouldn't have been helpful anyway since marketed demo, intended demo, source magazine vs authorial intent, it can all be different (preaching to the choir here of course but just venting i guess lol)

extra weird is that they fail to make note of a large chunk of the graph being for dedicated yuri mags, which like. some of those tried to have more separated gender demographics. once. it didn't really work. mostly the same people would read them all equally anyway and a lot of them are women lol
