all the Edgey Teen Stores like journeys or hot topic have more cowboy bebop and DBZ merchandise in their windows than when either of those shows were airing. those rayon DBZ button downs were a joke 10+ years ago, and now they are hot hot hot etsy and all the cool zoomer vintage stores.

I think it is. It's hard to find specifics for Qualitative Research, but they do charge authors for publishing.

COPE is also on the case.

Original Article: Karl Andersson. I am not alone – we are all alone: Using masturbation as an ethnographic method in research on shota subculture in Japan [published online first April 26, 2022]. Qualitative Research. 2022. doi: https://doi.org/10.1177/14687941221096600)

We began investigating the publication of the above paper on Aug 9, 2022, and are continuing our investigations. We will consider closely all guidance from the Committee of Publication Ethics and ensure that any actions taken comply with COPE standards.

Finally got around to finishing GitS SAC: 2045 and it's so drat messy. I still don't even have a good idea of what the N is supposed to be, exactly. It feels like they're trying to combine the puppetmaster and GitS 2: Innocence plotlines into a big jumbled mess. The second season looks better than the first, but the art direction still looks like a video game cutscene. I was half expecting that I'd have to take the controls of a tachikoma any minute. It feels like they had a lot of interesting ideas on the table but didn't know how to string them together and make a point. A lot of stuff happens only to not matter at all, like the Prime Minister of Japan being a white American, or Togusa's flashback to being tortured and having to run in the woods for four days. Just a lot of unexplored ideas and wasted time.

Its so weird how the anime industry goes through these periods where they forget how to do anything right. Like just unable to tell a coherent story. Even the basics have been temporarily forgotten.

Dude put out a notorious Swedish paedophile magazine back in the 00s. He seems to have dedicated his life to finding ways to campaign for his creepy, creepy interests to be normalised, and I guess he's shopping around the world for publishing outlets that haven't heard of him and don't do due diligence. Kind of like the academic version of Clawshrimpy.

It's not so weird. You can't expect the same people to make great art forever, but the choices they made in producing SAC: 2045 seem to be the biggest offender in terms of the project not being able to come together. They had a whole year to get the second part out the door, and it definitely feels more worked on than the first part, but it's all dragged down by misguided choices. The best thing I can say for it is it has some great Battou moments.

Maybe I ought to give 2045 another watch, but I don't think it's going to make any more sense in the end. I'm also downplaying its coolest part: the American Empire takes the front stage as a villain and they plan to do a genocide.

It's frustrating to even talk about, because its most interesting ideas are all spoilers. Even if they're malformed there's a lot to chew on. I reckon the biggest problem was splitting the show into two parts in the first place. The first season feels like it's meandering too long to get to a point, but the second season is almost purely plot driven. The sense of pacing is totally hosed, and there's no time to breathe. The end result is a story that explores the setting less than the other two SAC seasons, and communicates its ideas worse because it doesn't have enough time to make a point. Do I need to have seen the GiTS movies to understand it on a meta level? Because I suppose that's the only reason why I can even suspect what N is.
