Hey espioyume! We've moved to the 8ch moe /fast/ board in the meantime if you didn't know

>>36958
Dw, I'm well aware. I was on /fast/ before I was on /sthg/. Thanks though!

THIS BOARD IS GREEN
ELPHABA IS GREEN

Making the black woman green seems really weird. I only read the books, didn't see the play, but Elphaba being green was because the Wizard of Oz was her bio dad after he gave Elphaba's mother some green snake oil. She wasn't a racism allegory. The talking Animals were the allegory (worse, I know.) Just looks so uncanny to make her green.

WICKED SECOND TRAILER IS OUT!

I think they ruined the final note of the song in the film compared to the musical but otherwise pretty great film.

I think I will when they make a lite version, I'd be shocked if they didn't. I just got a Switch Lite a few months ago because I haven't had a console since the 360.

>>37317
I have a lite too! I bought it because I preferred the look to the regular one lol

>>37312
I've had my switch since 2017 so it would be really nice to upgrade but it's way too expensive imo.
Idk if I am just growing out of my hobbies or current nerd culture disgusts me, but my enjoyment of video games has decreased significantly over the years.

>>37319
in a similar situation. Hate to use buzzwords but I definitely have some fatigue when its comes to over comercialization of nerdshit. Even online its just a bunch of asocial assholes ragebaiting and pushing youtube channels, or people comeplaining about the wrong thing, IE a character being black/female instead of just terrible gameplay and writing…
As far as the switch2, ToTk was boring and I cant really name any future nintendo title I care about. By the time the next big zelda is out I'll probably have my own PC and just emulate it(I used my ex's to play ToTK with mods)

>>37312
Nah, I'm still having enough fun with my OLED Switch. I thought about a Switch 2, but looking into it, it sounds prettty disappointing actually. Apparently the performance is only slightly better than original Switches, 30 fps cap, screen does not look as good as the OLED Switch screen, the joycons can still drift, and there have been a lot of them with dead pixels right out of the box. I'll give it a few years until there's a better version and some more exclusives besides Mario Kart. A new Pokemon or Animal Crossing game might convince me. But if you got one without too many problems, hope you are enjoying it.

Kaze No Tairiku a.k.a The Weathering Continent.
Key the Metal Idol.
Arslan, the original OVA.
Anything by Masamune Shirow.
Anything by Leiji Matsumoto.
Anything by Mamoru Oshii.
Honneamise no Tsubasa.
Visions of Escaflowne.
3x3 Eyes.

The list goes on honestly.

i looked some of them up and the first two seem to have a lot of sexualized photos of the female characters. it could just be the official art tho idk

Dororo the Anime isnt old but the source material is. Beautifully animated action. Every few episodes theres a new B plot with some good drama.
Trigun is a classic and has probably the most 90s aethetic you can find if you really that old feel.
FMA and FMA brotherhood have some fanservice sprinkled in but its few and far between
I highly recomend Golden Kamuy if you truly want a unique story that keep you on edge. It has fanservice…but its all centered on the male characters…

>>37301
If you're into historical older animes I definitely recommend The Rose of Versailles. It's a bit cheesy in certain places but it's a cozy watch.

>>37301
Nice thread. I'm also displeased by all the creepy sexual stuff plaguing most modern animes.

.hack//SIGN is one of my top favorite older series. It's an early isekai that tells a very serious, dark story. It doesn't have much action but the interactions between characters, and the mystery they are following, are very interesting. Also it has one of the best anime OSTs I've ever heard.

Overall, .hack is a very detailed series involving multiple animes, games, and books. There are other .hack animes but imo SIGN was the best one. I'd watch ROOTS only if you are planning to play GU directly afterward since it's a prequel story for that game. And the other animes only if you are interested in some additional lore.

>>37311
I've watched the first 3 series you mentioned and they are also excellent recommendations. Dororo was my favorite out of those.

FFVIII for sure! Love the story and how easily you can steamroll everything with good draws. Dissidia was a lot of fun too, once I understood how to play it.
I thought I might go to the FF Magic the Gathering prerelease this weekend, but it was just too smelly…

Ultimate love for Noi from Dorohedoro. I love how Q Hayashida portrays woman in general.

Also, her relationship with Shin is an absolute goal.

loved her since I was 13

beato is SUCH A QUEEN holy shit (complicated lore about her past aside)

ryukishi in general loves writing strong sadistic women and i love it

Can't believe nobody put Heather yet smfh

No way, I love 8-bit theater! It's a comedy, it's not supposed to have fleshed out characters or a real plot or setting.
>it is not clever
I think it's pretty witty.

>>37302
okay, it had some funny jokes. but i felt like it beat me over the head with them, or something. maybe its better than i remember.
>It's a comedy, it's not supposed to have fleshed out characters or a real plot or setting.
I know, but felt like I needed.. something, idk. some indication of a progression, of some kind. fwiw i could never get into sitcoms or the like

I just finished the show Shameless off of so many recommendations.
It starts out weak as it is but shows some potential, then it very quickly makes every single character completely hateable and unsympathetic, then by the later seasons it devolves into just a far, far worse Always Sunny. Every Gallagher is the exact same person.
>Neurotic, substance abusing, petulant, selfish, portrayed as "smart" while making the least intelligent decisions possible.
You can't actually create a family dynamic this way because it's all just clones of one person screaming at each other.
I thought Sopranos was the most overrated show I would ever see but that at least has SOME things about it that I like. This show is irredeemable trash.

>>37307
Agreed. I'm sick to death of "mean people doing mean things" shows. Life is full of mean people doing mean things. I prefer media that prepares the viewer to react positively in the face of it. CGDCT anime are a nice relief, but how about a hero? Everyday heroes choosing kindness when meanness would be easier?

>>37146
Same. I really liked the show the first couple of seasons but having to watch Bojack make the stupidest decisions over and over again and continuing to wallow in his self-pity got tiring.

The only saving grace for me was Princess Carolyn who also made some stupid choices but at least remained relatable.

get an autism diagnosis first

>>37169
would someone with autism have two full time jobs

>>37171
2 more jobs than you
also stop hitting on me just cause im rich

>>37143
She's charliexcx Essex good

>>37161
It just sounds like they’re trying to rip off this one artist that pretends they’re from London, I think it’s ghostinnafurcoat/roshina. Overall boring song, I’ve heard better.

>>35431
I refuse to believe this movie is real.

>>2793
Nigel insisted that I watch this lol. My brain switched off half-way through because I could not understand what they were saying. Literally every moid in it talks like a whispery Texan Batman with high-functioning autism . Do Americans really talk like that? It made the main villain 80% less intimidating . Anyway, if you decide to watch remember to put on subtitles. Would bang Llewyn Moss.

>>25258
I would also like to know this, and what are your favorite movies directed by women?

>>36280
we do not talk like that. we are much louder
