Yeah. We need more anime with time dilation.

It's used for characters that are so bland because their sole purpose is to be a vehicle for the reader or viewers desires. You can have a relatable character and still give them their own personality and back-story.

I would argue that the best characters are those you root for and understand, they are relatable because they, just like you, have their dreams, hopes, anguish and trials (if they are well written enough).

A self insert character tries to achieve that relatability in a lazy way, by just boiling down their traits to the bare minimum in hopes of appealing to a broad audience.

People often use it as a negative criticism only because they are having trouble self-inserting into a particular NON-self-insert character that doesn't align with their own personality traits. Thus they accuse said character of being a self-insert for others (which may or may not be true) in a negative way to distance themselves from it. There are very few characters out there which are truly completely blank slates which get a free ride through their story.

Also known as projection.

It's cool, I hope you have fun with it. I liked part 6 a LOT more when I reread it.

And yeah, it was a good talk and reminded me of why I like the characters and series. Apologies for my aggro tone at the start, I admit I was expecting a shitflinging 'Daddy issues' argument rather than the good discussion you provided. Thank you, Anon.

(Also holy shit what was the reason for thread-deletion)

Fuck Koi Kaze. I read this shit thinking it'd be a cute story about a young sister and her brother finally meeting again after several years and rebuilding a bond that was lost or something like that, but it turned into fucking incest.

Stop using my wife to shitpost

When my sister and I went to see Howl's Moving Castle, we were the only ones in the theater. It was really comfy.

But when I went to see Ponyo by myself, there was a couple in there who'd clearly come there just to make out, and it was incredibly awkward.

Watched spirited away

I saw Your Name in a theater recently. Definitely on the empty side but there were a few people in there.

Wasn't sure which thread to use so i'm going with this one

Is it true you can get soft anime figures?

Remember.

Dolls are the event horizon.

I like your height.
