Metamorphosis is a very grounded story about a girl whose life took a nose dive after being introduced to drugs, and as implied by DundaStation has a downer ending in the original version.
The common joke is that gooners looking for a doujin to fap to end up being emotionally broken – which personally I didn’t get but to each their own – but because it’s so grounded in reality it can set some people off, especially if they’ve had past trauma.
You fool! You fell victim to one of the classic blunders!
In all seriousness Metamorphosis (AKA 177013) should probably come with some content warnings. Just wanted to give you a heads up in case you’re being completely genuine.
( ≧▽≦) Oh sweet baby Dionysus
Huh. Nope. I see other posts in this community with the little red [NSFW] bubble and blurred thumnails, but not this one. Dunno what’s going on if it’s already supposed to be tagged.
Hey looks like this list hasn’t been updated in a while (either 2 years by the title or 9 months by the 🖉 mark). Have there been any changes lately?
Also I’d be curious whether RWBY-related communities would qualify to be on the list? I’m currently trying to drum up activity in the only one I’ve found over on sh.itjust.works but also semi-considering starting up a RWBY NSFW community somewhere because there is just so much of it and I’m not seeing it shared anywhere.
As an aside, ʚ♡⃛ɞ(ू•ᴗ•ू❁) thank you for your work keeping the moe communities active on ani.social.
Should be marked NSFW.
Aside from that, nice.
Oh, damn, my mistake. You’re definitely a rarity in the anime fandom, then. I only know of Twinkle Nora Rock Me!, Chargeman Ken, and other similarly notorious anime from the 70s and 80s because of this one youtuber Kenny Lauderdale who covers old anime like that. It may have been from him that I even learned of YKK.
I would never be able to get into collecting LaserDiscs for various reasons but I tip my hat to you for being able to and helping with preservation, however small.
Kenny Lauderdale fan spotted ☆(*^o^)乂(^.^*)☆
Personally, my favorite parts of it have always been the themes of connecting with people and the hedgehog’s dilemma, rather than all the action-y bits or the heavy-handed religious symbolism. Between it, Eureka Seven, and The Big O, and comparing them to the likes of Code Geass and whichever-actual-Gundam-series-I-watched, I learned I don’t really care for mecha being mecha, but I enjoy when mecha are metaphor.
QUICKEDIT: I realize I’m sounding like I’m trying to convince you to like it and it’s not my intention here, more just trying to explain my side and make conversation.
Yeah I still remember like a dozen years ago watching a Digibro video that was trying to proclaim “your tastes should always be changing!” and I was literally within 2-3 years of their age at the time and was like, “how fucking young are you that you think this is a revolutionary thing to say?”
Like, my love for FMA has only grown over the years as I’ve matured and am better able to appreciate its themes, and meanwhile I can no longer stand even a single minute of Hetalia. Similarly, I grew up on all the long-running shounen battle anime like DBZ, Naruto, Bleach, etc., but I couldn’t bring myself to like Fire Force because I’m not 15 years old anymore (though I will admit HeroAca is a guilty pleasure of mine).
There’s dozens of us! Dozens!
My condolences. Haibane Renmei is one of my favorites.
I think on the one hand it is fair to say NGE is one of the greats from its time and arguably one of the most influential anime ever made (to the point where it’s now part of Japan’s cultural identity – you can hear Cruel Angel’s Thesis just causally as waiting room music for instance).
On the other hand, even as a fan myself I recognize how many brain-dead evangelical (heh) supporters try to tout it as the end-all-and-be-all of anime when it’s really just an unorthodox entry into a very specific type of genre.
I’m an idiot it took me so long to realize the dude on the left is eating his own food and not sneakily trying to steal from purple hair’s plate (I haven’t seen Frieren only a handful of memes and r34).
I’m just a rando online but I would say give Abridged a shot. It’s clear that they understood the show and while they do poke fun, it’s not just constantly shitting on it like I’ve seen from some abridged series. That said, Abridged Kirito is portrayed kinda like Donald Duck in that he’s deliberately insufferable so that you laugh when he gets his comeuppance (which is frequent), so if you think that would be too much to power thru, just give it a pass then.
I’m not a certified SAO hater but I did sour on it by myself after the Alfheim arc started so I loved what Abridged did to “fix” some of my issues with it, and it has a hella memorable ending to the Aincrad arc that actually uses the OP (This Is War by Thirty Seconds to Mars) for the climax.
I’m OOTL, what happened to them?
So, first off, (º ﹃ º )
Second, what is this perennialte.ch address? I already have a Pixiv account so I expected to end up seeing it there but that didn’t take me to the regular site. Is it just a frontend like nitter so you can browse without an account? I’d gotten used to Pixiv’s UI but this one does look quite slick.
