    My biggest gripe about anime is that it would always bend over to fan service and sexualize the fuck out of any female characters within it. This is of course to gain more money from creepy, horny men, so making anime an art form with no financial incentives as opposed to the profit seeking industry it is would quell a lot of this sexualization which I just find annoying, and which harm women in the long run.

      Most importantly, stop sexualizing children. Every time I see it I think to myself “goddammit Japan tf is wrong with you”. Still prefer watching it over hyperindividualistic Hollywood trash though

      The only animes where I’m fine with fan Service are Gintama and The Eminence in Shadow because it’s used for running jokes in both of these.
