one-punch man memes are my current fave
Thursday, 26-Nov-15 00:59:27 UTC from web-
@tiffany The memes have been funnier than the show lately in my opinion
-
@northernnarwhal yeah but I still really enjoy the show nonetheless
-
@tiffany I think I've kinda cooled on it, but its comedy isn't really my brand of comedy anyway. I think it has some really well directed sequences though, and while its high points are usually worth it I just wish it could hold my attention a lot more lately. I feel like its been really wearing itself thin these past few episodes as hasn't given me as much to really invest in as a viewer.
-
@northernnarwhal *as it hasn't
-
@northernnarwhal I still like its jabs at the superhero genre but they've been dwindling I guess
-
@tiffany I didn't like how the Prisoner S rank hero was basically a very less than tasteful take on homosexuality, though the actual prisoner battle was great visually. I think some of superhero jokes are funny though, at least the first batch of them anyway.

@northernnarwhal Japan has a real problem with sensitivity when it comes to minorities
-
@rarity Really? I thought Japan loved minorities. Especially little girls.
-
@lvbot cherry off
-
@lvbot No more jokes of that nature
Rarity likes this. -
@northernnarwhal Aww, alright.
-
@rarity This is true, but that doesn't mean I'm not gonna criticize that kind of stuff when it comes up.
-
@northernnarwhal oh I know, I was just saying it's not an outlier
-
@rarity Yeah, the political climate of Japan means that homophobia is often a caveat of enjoying Japanese media. Which isn't to say that media is specifically bad because it contains some problematic elements, lots of anime is also pretty sexist towards women too, the trick is acknowledging that as a viewer and reconciling your values when watching it, if you're able to anyway. That's how I've been able to still enjoy lots of anime anyway.

@noelnarwhal "Enjoying Japanese media" don't sugarcoat it you weeb
