I'm currently watching through this anime for the first time, and I'm planning on playing through the dot hack video games once I'm done.
Anysushi here have any experience with this series? I like the character designs a lot.

I watched .hack//SIGN on Toonami in the afternoon and Midnight Run on Cartoon Network in the early 2000s. It was a lot of dialogue for what what usually an action and comedy anime program block, so I imagine it didn't do well in "ratings" however the hell that information was gathered then(no one ever asked me for my opinions).

I loved .hack//SIGN though. The soundtrack, mood, animation style, and characters are unforgettable. If the character design ever looks familiar, that's probably because it was done by Yoshiyuki Sadamoto. He designed characters for Gainax including Royal Space Force, Nadia, Neon Genesis Evangelion, FLCL, and Diebuster. He was also an artist on the Daicon IV opening animation.

Talk about anything that ABe has had a hand in. Anime, manga, doujinshi, art, etc!

I finished Texhnolyze on stream not too long ago and loved it, even if it was a bit of a tough watch at times. Certain parts of that anime absolutely blew me away (namely the scenes on the surface) and more than made up for its shortcomings.

>They do seem to struggle with following the rules and understanding them, but they aren't fighting against them.

Rituals are an important part of life for young children and differently abled people. They are far more prone to becoming upset when things get out of the normal scheduled order.

All of those things are probably true but as an experiment I want to try the Haibane lifestyle. I can't find a way around money. Thrift clothes and abandoned places are easy to come by. I recycle a lot of junk already. I guess I could volunteer at a charity or a soup kitchen as a way to work for free?
Rituals aren't just silly arcane rules. They are a way to create an atmosphere and shape your mind and body so its interesting to see how these rules would effect a person. Its a dumb exercise but its not like I have anything else to do.

Talk about what manga you've been reading!

I've been reading an older manga called Yume Tsukai by Ueshiba Riichi. It's about magical shrine maidens with weird powers solving paranormal mysteries and stuff. Fairly standard concept but what makes it good in my opinion is just how crazy and bizarre the stories get, as well as some really fantastic art and a nostalgic sort of comedy. It's sometimes goofy, sometimes quite emotional, and other times borders on Junji Ito-esque horror scenarios. I really like the creepy body horror stuff, and the comedy between the weirdo cast is fun. I especially like the over the top lolicon character.

Almost finished with Kakushigotou - it got really tiring and repetitive by the end. Some of those later parts were still funny, but it started to rely way too much on the misunderstandings between characters.

I'd call it "butter spread over too much bread". Good premise but too much filler. Visuals and BGM were the highlights. Dialog and cooking segments were some kind of ironic shitposting that was funny in moderation but I think they beat the jokes to death by the end of the series.

Been thinking about starting a Tensei Isekai Buddhism sect. Basically the idea is that as long as you follow the teachings and are kind to others, you will be reincarnated as a teenager in a fantasy world. Of course after being reincarnated, you get a cool cheat skill and cute girls/boys will like you just for being yourself.

Think this could take off?

This kind of rhetoric proves my point. The moralizing attitude, assumption of superiority, self-centeredness, lack of self-scrutiny and "there are no alternatives" attitude.

 No.7847

I wish there could be a world were religious tradition were just an easy going part of life. No puritan moralism and no confrontation with a "neutral" secular world where "religious" ideas are not allowed to exist. This schizophrenic separation is tiresome.

Like I said, your vision of a world is significantly worse than what we already have, which is already soul-crushing. Nothing other than a complete reset will suffice.

 No.7874

>complete reset
Between the 18th and 21st centuries, elites tried to reorganize and engineer the perfect society with ideas they called rational and scientific. This entailed the destruction. Isn't calling for a complete reset, a destruction or elimination of what is now and what came before, fall into the exact same patterns of thought as those elites? I am not sure what you mean by my vision of the world being terrible. I haven't laid one out. I'm assuming what you mean is the kinds of lifestyles produced by liberal modernity are superior or better to alternatives. This is pretty cynical and arrogant and a claim that should be examined critically. The typical reaction to criticisms of secular modernity is that it involves the embrace of if its supposed opposite, a cruel, tyrannical, medieval theocratic world that has never existed in history. Whatever the case, we may be approaching a world where there are no longer any alternatives.
