For what purpose? If I wanted to know more about Japanese everyday life, I'd rather kill myself.

Because incompetent writers can do any retarded thing they want and do the excuse of "it's magic, I ain't gotta explain shit"

>>155778567
It's fun

Why do movies, books, and television shows so often feature silly, unrealistic story devices (magic, time travel, etc.)?

Because Japanese children like it?

Maybe some authors have actual creativity and they can create things that are not real.

Fucking incompetent authors writing about giant white whales and shit.

IT's the only media that can do it correctly.

Not like regular shows don't focus on unrealistic themes either.

Right Japan needs to make more highschool harems and boring moeblobs
What's that, you want something else? Sorry, that's too unrealistic.

As for time travel, it is really cheap and you can tell a story is bad when it pulls it halfway to explain and solve shit.
As for magic, you are animating instead of filming for a reason, it would be a waste to not use the advantages of the medium.
