I didn't like it

I didn't like it.

I don't care.

I like it

Totoro is actually a pedo serial killer and the the movie is a metaphor about the girls getting killed.

why is that thing holding an umbrella in the rain at a bus stop one of the most distinct images in all of film?

Neither did I, or Spirited Away either.

I did.

Okay.

Yeah I was kinda underwhelmed. But still fun to show kids. I like how Ghibli treats childhood.

Because it establishes the time and location and theme and mood of the movie

i agree

You have to be over 18 to use 4chins.

Same, but I loved Nausicaa and Princess Mononoke. Are there any more anime films, Ghibli or otherwise, like those two?

Castle in the Sky (Ghibli).

Kiki Does a better job at creating story with a child as it's protagonist in every aspect compared to totoro. I'm not saying totoro is bad, it's just that kiki handled child innocence so much better, it even incorporates fantasy elements that played a part in the movie but did't make it unrelatable.

Kiki is superior

Totoro's characters are little kids, but Kiki is in her teens. Mai Mai Miracle would be a better point of comparison.

Jap shit is pervert sex shit.

Get rid of it all. Remove japs.

It's better than Western animation, by far. The reason Disney is praised so much is because their animation was smooth and high framerate, but there's a lot more to animation than that.

American shows and movies are vastly more sexually explicit than anime.

You might be retarded.

Have you seen HBO?

TV anime does not allow nipples or genitalia, and there are limits to how how much sex (and violence) can be shown. Video releases don't have these restrictions, aside from having to censor genitalia (which is true for everything in Japan), but they usually aren't different from the TV version. Theatrical movies and direct-to-video releases rarely feature much in the way of sex and violence. Sex in anime, whether it's implied or on-screen to some degree, occurs once in a blue moon.

99% of the sexual content in anime is titillation and things like accidental groping played for laughs.

Things were a bit different in the 80s and 90s, for straight-to-video and theatrical releases, but that ship has sailed.

You're

Fucking

Retarded

I kept thinking bad things were going to happen. I thought the mom would die of her illness or the dad died in a bus accident when he was really late showing up

How am I retarded? What did I say that you think is wrong?

Sick burn, chad

>99% of the sexual content in anime is titillation and things like accidental groping played for laughs.
This makes anime worse than TV shows with explicit sexual content.

How does it make it worse?

It's more juvenile.

And?

Yeah spirited away disappointed me too but its probably because i never got the chance to see it in my childhood

Most adults experience secondhand embarrassment watching anime, but it's not really a problem for people who enjoy this kind of "entertainment".

The train scene is one of the best scenes in the history of cinema.

If only I could become mature and appreciate the entertainment value of rape and genital mutilation and the deeply meaningful artistry of promiscuity, cheating and cuckoldry.

Gimme a hug, man!

Stick to your panties and kyaa hentais.

I only liked Porco Rosso desu

Future Boy Conan, it's a series directed by Miyazaki.

Stick to masturbating to rape scenes and bragging about how euphorically mature it makes you.

It's ok. It just means that you have no soul.

Conan is kind of like a prototype of NausicaƤ and Laputa.

Japanese are more obsessed with rape than any other nation.

good job not like thing
have more thing u don't like?

great argument, pedro

So that explains why it almost never happens in anime but is common on American TV. And why Americans are so into prison rape but there seemingly is no such thing in Japan.

the problem is that ameritards actually do rape women

>Sup Forums

Well, in Japan at least 70% of school girls were molested on trains. The rape problem is probably pretty big in Japan, but their women rarely report it.

Because anime is for dumb kids. It often happens in Japanese films. Not only in porn.

ok, they might touch butts when they are in ultracrowded trains
ameritards rape and kill women all the time, it's not even funny

Most anime airs late at night and s not aimed at children.

...

So why it's more childish than Japanese films aimed at adults?

That's groping because japanese men are perverts. You know every product with a camera sold there has to have a loud shutter sound you cannot mute because so many men were taking creepshots on trains and in stores and shit.

I watch spirited away again for the first time since I was a kid, and I was amazed by how great the animation was. I just took it for granted as a kid.

Fuck off to Sup Forums

You're right, it should more mature like American shows where you can entertain yourself by watching people getting raped and mutilated. That's really mature and deep and shit.

people don't get mutilated and raped on american tv because they censor literally everything

i see the redditor anti-weeaboo squad has arrived

That's complete bullshit and you know it.

Some people don't appreciate comfy, because that is exactly what this movie is all about.

The creator said himself the movie was supposed to inspire an appreciation for the forested regions in between the populated coasts and the mountains. The movie inspired a lot of natural preservation initiatives in Japan.

Well yes, and because Japanese women are more submissive than western women they very rarely report sexual crimes. I wouldn't be surprised if rape was more common in Japan than in the USA.

They get mutilated and raped all the time. They're just clothed when it happens. Americans love violence more than anyone enlse.

I have to second this. They don't show the penis going into the vagoo or anything, but there's a whole lot of camera showing the bad guy holding the girls mouth while she cries shots.

Also a whole lot of "oh yeah, they raped and killed her" offhand remarks.

I would Japanese men are not like American ones nowhere near as aggressive and forceful. Also, the japanese don't like physical contact nearly as much as westerners.

America is a country where rape is a quasi-official part of the justice system and celebrated by the populace.

>nowhere near as aggressive and forceful
>literally a country responsible for the worst war crimes during the WW2
They produce the most fucked up porn in the world and their porn is full of simulated rape. Hell, half of their New Wave works is about sexual violence.

Most JAV is vanilla.

Oh fuck off. That's just what you search for. They have a lot of that shit but that's nothing compared to the rest of it. They just make that much more porn.

I'm referring to the modern japanese man. The manchild that has led to the decreasing birth rate across that entire country. The guy that goes to a store to buy a egg to masturbate into.

No.

How the fuck can you not like Spirited Away? That and Mononoke are the top tier Ghibli films imo. Howl is a good one too.

Then again I just love them all.

The same guy that sexually harasses young women and girls.

Yes. I have watched and browsed a lot of JAV and most of it is vanilla. It's just an Internet legend that it's full of tentacles and vomiting or whatever.

Even when there's rape in JAV, it's of the "she doesn't want it at first but then she gets into it" kind, or there's just some half-hearted token resistance. We're not talking about Irreversible here.

As usual, people blame the Japanese birth rate crisis on their pet peeve because it's convinient and because it's easier than considering the more varied and complicated causes that are actually responsible for the situation.

You really should read up on the current sexual attitudes of the japanese. The government would be desperate for more pregnant japanese women.

Their lowering birth rate is because not enough women are having babies. The men are to blame.

Rape isn't exactly a healthy sexual activity.

Have you seen Niku Daruma? Please name something similar made by the Americans.

It takes two to tango, and the point is that they aren't having fewer babies simply because they're le manchildren. That's just your pet peeve.

>Have you seen Niku Daruma?
Never heard of it.

>Please name something similar made by the Americans.
Why?

>While Kiku rapes the semi-conscious Kana, the director cuts her left leg off with a meat cleaver, and mutilates her tongue with a knife, potato peeler, and shears to stop her screaming. When Kana passes out from the pain, she is injected with drugs to wake her up and keep her conscious. Kana's right arm and remaining leg are severed, and her abdomen is cut open so Kiku can have sex with her innards. After Kiku ejaculates blood-laden semen onto Kana's breasts, the director beats him over the head with the cleaver, and stabs Kana in the face with it. Kiku is then castrated by the director, who makes a phone call while the cameraman continues filming the mangled bodies of their two stars.
Yup, the Westerners with their sex in GoT are so much more depraved.

That's not porn, and there are Western movies with similar content. And what does this even have to do with anime?

>there are Western movies with similar content
Name them.

It has a lot to do with Japan.

Irreversible, A Serbian Film, Cannibal Holocaust, Salo 120, Human Centipede, Hostel, Saw, Green Inferno.

But what does it have to do with anime?

you can go to any decent public library and pull out any random book in the ADULT fiction section that has stuff a hundred times worse then this.

Even if that's the case, what about it?

>Watching Anime
are you 10?

Most anime made today airs at night and is not intended for children.

Most anime made today is utter shit.

I did.

Myth.

I don't think a 10-year-old child would grasp Legend of the Galactic Heroes' socio-political commentary.

Fact.

only man with taste itt

Its comfy?

No. Most Westerners have a horribly warped perception of what modern anime is like because they don't watch it and just listen to stories told by people who ALSO don't watch it.

I said MOST of it is shit, you literally can't disagree with that. For every Tiger & Bunny there's ten Psycho-Passes, ten Daimidalers, ten Sowrd Art Onlines et cetera et cetera.

I literally can since it literally is a myth repeated by people who have seen barely anything more recent than Cowboy Bebop.

And cliches, don't forget cliches.

*Cue laugh track*

They are not even close to Niku Daruma or the Guinea Pig series.
Except maybe Salo and A Serbian Film which aren't American films anyway.

>this autistic retard defends his junk entertainment again
kek, do you even watch real films?
