Can we talk about Japan's unhealthy glamorization of high-rise communist blocks and the absurdly decadent public structures in anime?
The architectural paradigms at work in anime for the last 2 decades seem to be the strong promotion of government-funded urban population centers and public structures to the exclusion of genuinely fresh design perspectives in terms of the "futuristic city" so many genres of anime spawn from.
It's a little annoying to me that any "fictional city" I come across in anime seems to operate on the ideal that a current city was razed and someone then let a single team of architects define every available open space with a single minimalist design, which seems far more analogous to communist trends of the 1970's than to modern-day city planning. There's no problem with imagining this in a fictional story, but it seems like it's all I see in anime these days. How can cute girls be so enthusiastic about living in places that seem so oppressive and brutalist?
I understand that art-directors and designers like to make the setting re-enforce the feeling of the story itself, and a lot of the exaggerated design is based on evoking a certain feeling, and of course there are many outliers, but i still think its an oddly overrepresented style and I'm disappointed studios aren't a little more creative.
I'd love to hear an actual anime/architecture expert's take on this

I have something to tell you, buddy.
Nice word salad. They do it because it's easy to draw, not because of some philosophy that anyone spent a moment thinking about.

That's modelled after taiwanese rethugican apartments. No commies.

So who is doing the kills? Legosi seems to be out of the equation. My guess is Bill since he can't hold his carnivore instincts

Not sure what you mean by that, but I'm inclined to say "yes".
Can you explain?

Chaste whore is that kind of girl who teases you in every possible sexually way but then left you blue-balled at the end. Always.
Guess OP meant that Dagashi Kashi has very teasing graphic which makes you wish to see those girls naked at any cost but will never deliver actual nudity.

At least we can agree that sagiri's the worst
Actually implying any girl but Elf is even good.
I have just ended it and damn it, it's the most frustrating anime I have ever seen.
It could have been a masterpiece easily but instead we have 25 episodes of wasted potential.
For example, we have great characters design, cloathes are cool and landscape beautiful but the animation is terrible.
The story is very good and original but there are too many big mistakes that make it ridiculous.
Too much incoherance with the psychic power potential and utilization.
For me it was a 6/10 while it could have been a solid 9.
Nice blog.
>>157872206
I dropped it halfway when the romance started. Nothing against romance speciffically, but as far as i remember there was a lot of ntr going on.
5/10 maybe i should finish watching, if i still remember than its probably not that bad
