Spy X Family starts off in the line of fire, proving the allegations correct. 
Apparently they are suprised a manga about a blonde haired, blue eyed nazi 
is anti communist 
Not simping for the WEF and the corpos running the internet is an alt right take. And somehow shocking from the guy who made an anime against the technoptimists of the 90s.
The straights are NOT alright either
Homo manga isn't safe either... without naming any names.
Even my boy Kumeta falls into the line of fire

The only far right anime I know of the VN series Muv-Luv which is half dating sim and half starship troopers. I spit out my drink when characters started going on rants about how Japan needed a Shogun again to protect it from the imperialism of capitalist american pig dogs in between rants about how great the millitary is and how superior Japan's valor and mechs are in fighting alien invaders. Its like a more neurodivergent and more right wing attack on titan

Isn't Attack on Titan apologia for Japan's atrocities in WW2? I dunno, I watched the first episode and got those vibes so I assume I'm right.

I saw it as a message against forever wallowing in guilt for what your ancestors might or might not have done and seizing the freedom every man should have at birth but then it became frick all that if the girl you have a crush on is a moralstrag who thinks you should be enslaved forever instead so I just don't even care anymore.

Not Bengalis but well, we're basically taught our ancestors oppressed the whole country and that's why we can be thrown into jail on the word of one of those whose ancestors were oppressed, have to compete for only part of the seats in any exam because rest are reserved for them it gets tiring when discrimination against you is codified law and major segments of your own blood act like it is justified. More than the islanders, it is the people at Liberio who I felt I could relate to. But then all of them fought loyally for their slavers.
There's a reason Ayn Rand appealed to me so hard too. It feels sometimes like this whole country is one of her novels dialed up to maxx with the antagonists but no protagonist. Grasping r-slurs that cannot create anything so they castigate the only ones who can for being the haves. And spineless haves who surrender then claim it was actually a 10D chess move to not get lynched.

The story opens in an island where the protag lives, a walled city with 50-60 feet man eating giants roaming across the rest of the island. They're the islanders. But later its revealed they're basically last remnants of an empire that had controlled the whole continent once upon a time with the power of those giants and any of them morph can ones. A moralstrag king used the power of the titans to brainwash them all and dismantle the empire and believed they should go extinct peacefully even on the island when the rest of the world came for their inevitable revenge. And what remained of the imperial population on the continent was put in concentration camps to produce a constant supply of such titans to the empire(former colonials) that replaced them on the continent. One such was Liberio.

It's mostly a character show. It's apologia in that it "forgives" its characters by justifying their actions but gives them deadly comeuppance.

My guy, do you forget GATE?
Same shit, pro Jap militarism. I'd also say Arpeggio of the Blue Steel does the same thing with it's political intrigue but its too
for me to actually care about it outside wanting to frick Takao.
That said great pick lmao. There are plenty of transparently right wing pieces of Jap media imo, it's just that it somehow surprises most twitter commies that the average Jappa has views they consider anathema. I guess they feel spoiled by Aka dedicating an entire mini arc in Oshi no Ko talking about how bad it is when people call celebrities sluts, Fujimoto having trans characters in Fire punch, or the WItch Hat guy going on random rants about how see through magic is a CRINGE TROPE and then randomly adding in minority characters.

Muv-Luv is way better and way more directly political then GATE. GATE is pure slop like most anime which has vaugley nationalist themes hidden within the big boobies and cutsey characters which twitter chudoids like since they hate thinking "ew too political just give me anime girl eating MUH BORGER
". Muv-Luv just drops you into the weeds with insanely long political rants, neurodivergentally long descriptions of alien biology and mechs, detailed battle plans, pure grimdark edge kino, and goes fully over the political machinations.

Oh frick and speaking of """Woke""" JP mangaka I forgot the the worst one, the vineland manga author.
He pivoted his entire story from vikings murdering shit to farmland saga to a "violence is bad" story that'd make Neil Drunkmann blush with how shitty and overbearing it is. He has tons of twitter threads going on about how men are the ultimate evil, how feminism is the only thing that will save us, and how he broke down in tears when his son wanted to play swordfight with his friends.
And yet through this he keeps his twitter pfp Askladd, the guy everyone remembers as the giant Viking who killed shit like a happy r-slur.

!comicshitters why can't people who write about Vikangz not devolve into complete trash? Strangely the
comic on St.Patrick was more realistic on this.
Beyond that I can recommend The Golden House of Samarkand and the new Cu Chulainn comics look kino.

Okay but what is it with a lot of media nowadays having Druckmannesque endings?

I blame Sony and Netflix shit mostly.
It's not "mature" to want to be Kratos and murder monsters and bang whores, it's mature to raise your stepson.
The answer is yes, there are a (lot) of people who like them.
It's the trend along with shit constantly being IRONIC and META and having TONS OF LORE. Imo the tides are turning too with shit like people enjoying something like Smiling Friends while now calling Rick and Morty "cringe".

Rick and Morty had an episode where the punchline was Rick wanted Szechuan sauce again and goes back in time to get it. As a part of a cross promotion McDonalds brings it back for a bit and then this guy makes an """ironic""" public freakout video.
After this point the internet started turning on Rick and Morty, which got compounded by the s*x pest shit Roiland a bit later. Rick and Morty still has the kids and weed shops, but it's not a joke when people say Smiling Friends will replace it within two or three years.

Does fire punch ever get good? I got to around the part where the naked biker shows up but even then the story just felt like it never went anywhere.
Punchman gets mad his incestuous lover, his sister gets killed by a man. Kills the entire city and regrets it, for some reason. He continues fire punching and crying about it endlessly, while random pedophilia and naked women happen in the background.

Nothing really it's a solid fantasy series, I was just pointing out the creator of the manga is a bit of a twitter libcuck and those types swooned when he fed them a certain scene in a recent arc. Basically the magic jannies bust some chuds using magic to see through clothing and tell them how its a fricked up s*x crime and NOT COOL. (Since magic that can see through clothes is a trope don't you know
) And they get busted by a spicy GIRLBOSS of all things too! 
Exaggeration aside it had the subtlety of a brick, they were basically talking to the camera as this scene happened.
That said, the story is ALSO an elaborate 2nd amendment metaphor if you want to get
The bad guys want
gunsmagic for everyone up to an including recreational nuclear weapons, and the """good""" guys think the proles are too stupid forgunsmagic and janny them by erasing their memories men in black style. (The twist is any butthole can do magic, he just has toread the anarchist cookbookdraw runes in whatever order, the magic jannies trick people into thinking you have to be born with power and use it to create an artificial aristocracy). Things happen in the story that support both sides and the main character is torn between these two ideologiesJump in the discussion.
