I vote it’s anime.

Today I learned something.

And it dismisses the time component of self hosting. It’s not going to be zero.

I think the title auto corrected from “ch’en” to “chain”

Yeah, I generally stick to what the average American finds OK. Transformers is good. Pacific Rim is older but OK. I don’t go into Macross too deep unless I know they’re cool with it.

All of them. I never talk about it in public, except giant robots. It’s the only socially acceptable version. I thank Transformers for this.

Thank you for asking. I like monster girls. I do not like noncon.

Aww. OK sigh.

Can we, uh, get more info on the purple haired one in the back? Asking for a friend.

For context, linking to that instance is against lemmy.ml rules, thus the round about directions.

I don’t remember anything about dot hack except it sad so damn boring. I think it had a good premise and decent art but all the Mc did was nothing.

Since some of my favorites are already mentioned, Macross Plus. Great mecha, great voice acting, great music. Plot is a little weird.

I don’t understand. How are other versions not for straight guys?

Living the dream.

Critic reviews are useless because they are largely just ads bought and paid for.

Also because they usually judge criteria differently. They watch a lot of movies and are looking for things the average person isn’t.

souske bouske!!!

True. To me, it’s the popular perception of anime that’s the problem. Most people associate it with the op’s topics, even if that’s not everything. There’s some critical point where there’s enough weird stuff that it gets rounded up into “all anime is weird”.
