The producer of anime film "Your Name.", Koichiro Ito, has been sentenced to ONLY **6 years in prison**. Prosecutors revealed that he had been engaging in sex with over 100 underage girls, whom he had met on Twitter, for the past 11 years.😨 He is far worse than Watsuki !! pic.twitter.com/IyDLKgKFav

This is why I don't watch girly "uwu there is a sissy anime boy with feelings and some girl and I wish I was a Japanese high school student" gay tranime shit
If your anime doesn't revolve around people fighting with mega butt explosions and over the top destruction like a guy getting punched so hard it destroys an entire office building I shan't be watching

It's mid to the point of being a filter for people with decent taste but has flashy visuals to distract consoomers.

Can someone explain to me the appeal of this film? I saw it with friends at the cinema back when it came out, because it was hyped as frick. I found it excruciating to watch.
I think it was a musical which explains a big chunk of why I hated it, but I don't recall the story being that engaging either.
Do you have to be a huge anime fan to like this film? I don't watch anime, unless you consider Studio Ghibli anime (which I don't, and nor does Miyazaki, incidentally), but I have read manga (Dragon Ball, Ranma 1/2, a lot of stuff by Katsuhiro Otomo, Osamu Tezuka, Junji Ito, Kazuo Umezu, Hideshi Hino and Nagabe) so Japanese storytelling isn't alien to me.
I just don't get it.

言の葉の庭 aka Garden of Words.
Both Your Name and Garden of Words had similar fancy visuals due to Makoto Shinkai being heavily involved with the art. Oldstrag weebs would remember 5cm/s as well, if you were into anime in the late 00s/early 10s that was one of the go to anime movie recommendations you'd always get.

Ugh. I completely blocked out 5cm from my memory. Such an incel movie. How dare you remind me of its exsistence.

I mean, I wanna watch it, but I dont think its tranime. It literally uses extreme double switch (boy to girl, big city Tokyo life to small inaka town so tiny it sits in an extinct volcano crater) as a metaphor for like....no matter where you go, you'll still be you. Basically how you can't run away from problems. Whether it's successful is another story.

I thought it was cute. But I have terrible taste in film and barely watch anime so I'm probably a bad judge.

True anime, in general seems to peddle the same group of tropes and characters over and over. There's some variation and occasional anime producers (often the ones who are considered not to be 'respectful to the audience') try subversion but it's generally the same thing over and over.
This is why it appeals to emotionally stunted and intellectually limited people.

Incidentally, I have no idea why that boring butt movie was hyped up so much, another instance of being duped into watching anime.

So given that the age of consent in Japan is like 13, it's much worse than it sounds?
Jump in the discussion.
No email address required.
"underage" in Japan still means the same as the rest of the world. Basically nobody uses it to mean age of consent and instead it's "below the age of majority" which is 18, same as the west.
