Reading the new frontier for the first time, and besides all the accolades i could bestow on Darwyn's work for the book itself, which is obvious by now,... HOW COULD ANYONE, even an alt right Nazi dipshit, THINK THAT DARWYN COOKE would be on their side after reading this

Yeah good luck finding much support in a fan base that has a large percentage of women and minorities.

Hello yes Japanese creator who doesn't understand English, watch my 40 minute YouTube rant about how the anime industry that my crunchyroll account doesn't make a dent in (tho let's be honest they're pirating) has too many Asians and not enough white men

Don't most white people read the main characters in Anime as white, since Japanese animators don't use American stereotypes when animating people from their own country (because why would they)? That's what I do until they do something weird with their shoes or an actual white person shows up and I'm like "I'd call that racist, except we nuked two of their cities so they can do what they want."

There's also that anime, even though it escapes the black and white conventions of manga, most often just has all characters have "white" skin.

I think I've only ever seen one anime where a character had dark skin and it's because she's from some specific region I can't think of the name of right now, while all the other characters, though they are all Japanese, have white skin

Not that that excuses the racism of the chuds of course

Personally the reason I never read anime people as asian as a kid was because they all had blonde/red/brown hair. If all the characters in Sailor Moon had jet black hair I probably woulda figured it out.

At least that part starts to make sense after you've seen a couple and realize that hair color often denotes personality type in anime

What? Comics have fan service to, that’s what everyone calls it. Is anime the first time you’ve ever heard that term? Because comics was the first place I heard it.

Yeah and sometimes I've heard it used to mean references to nerdy stuff.
It's a pretty poor argument.

to be clear, im not talking about fan service, as in a playful nod to hardcore fans like deep dives in star trek lore or whatever, i'm specifically talking about "fanservice", no spaces, a term which refers to scenes in which girls (most often under 18) are placed in overtly sexual situations to satisfy the creep customer base. personally ive only ever seen this used in the manga/anime community

A concrete example was when people were selling the Marvel swimsuit issue I remember the term being thrown around a lot. Though that was years after it was published. As I was a baby when it was released.

ill take your word for it, i wasnt really reading comics in the 90s. but i sure dont see it nowadays, and the flippancy it's thrown around (one reason why i dont venture in adtrw) there's the explicit expectation and acceptance that that is a thing in the anime industry and you just have to deal with it. "well beyond the fanservice" "the fanservice in this episode was great" "this ep was really fanservicey" directly in the title card "this is the fanservice episode" etc

I’ve literally never seen this. Also lol if you think that expectation isn’t in comics. People still expect and for the most part get their fan service in western comics. It hasn’t gone away. It’s still a thing, Their has been a pushback but it’s not disappeared. Like to this day the tits and rear end pose is a thing.

i just saw that title card the other day, kobayashis dragon maid, ep 7 and go into like any thread in adtrw for the rest

and i didnt say there wasnt that expectation for certain segments of western readers, but that those scenes are so regularly used in the anime industry that the entire community decided to apparently appropriate (according to vkeios) a term to refer to that specific thing, often as a flippant dismissal of the grossness of what it denotes

I mean it’s a term comic book readers use to so I’m not sure why it’s special. Comics have engaged in fan service of varying types since the 60s and whether the term originated somewhere else seems like a pointless distinction.

Also lol a certain segment of readers. By that you mean the core audience? Blows my mind people are trying to pretend fan service isn’t a huge part of western comics and haven’t always been that way.

Also that dragon thing apparently is a joke they do for every episode so I feel your being disingenuous a bit.

well as someone who actually watched the show thats the only time it's used and shockingly it refers to the beach episode so youre wrong there. and it's pretty funny im being called disingenuous by the person blatantly ignoring what im saying about how it's used now and what archy told us about how it was used then to say bluh-bluh look there were boobs in the 60s too

like, you're not defending fanservice as a good thing as far as i can tell so im not sure what youre getting out of this

The idea that anime fanservice is some unique thing rather than something literally any visual medium engages in.

Hell they were making jokes about it with she hulk in the 80s

but ive repeatedly stated that that's not what im refering to and you and i both know that you know that.

let me put it another way, not seeing a lot of panty shots of teenage girls coming out of the big 2, or the indie pubs for that matter, or in cartoons

I am fully aware of what your argument is. You said you were done an I’m respecting that.

Remember the original argument wasn’t the origins of the phrase but that it was used to describe comics which it was.

I suppose i couldve said intentionally saying my argument was something it wasnt but why use so many words to get to the same place

And I remember what I originally wanted to ask about in this thread, before I got distracted by them being afraid of Kate Leth; what happened with that terrible "Hero" that was a sexy lady covered with stars and bars? I wish i could remember what it was called, but it seemed like it was the other big Alt Right comic book besides Iron Sights and Alt Hero.

I was gonna look this up but i couldnt even remember what it was supposed to be called lol

I did look up alt hero though and apparently it started coming out in like july but im guessing it must be aggressively mediocre at best because i never saw anybody even do a takedown of it like iron sights

It really says a lot when Vox Day's scheme for chud money has been more successful and has better production values than D&C's darling.

Vox Day is a pretty open nationalist and enthusiastic fascist, which is why everything he produces comes off more cartoonishly evil. It's also why comicsgate didn't want anything to do with him; they can't pretend to be concerned normal people if he's off to the side calling black people apes and longing for a white ethnostate.

Now that evs and Dickie have abandoned ship I guess vox is free to move ahead with the comicsgate imprint
