Slashdot Mirror


An Extensive History of Anime

Ninja Master Gara writes "While it is a bit dated, Right Stuf has a fascinating set of in depth history of anime in Japan and the west and follows the development of both cultures, including landmark series from the 60s, the 70s, the 80s and beyond, the origins of today's major anime release companies, and commentary on various aspects of the industry and culture. While it is labelled an 'Introduction to Anime', it serves as a much more interesting look back for long time anime fans. Right Stuf also has a great timeline of important releases."

    No, it's not just cartoons. It's cartoons that middle-aged men get off to.

    Most slashdotters do not like anime. Articles about anime rarely break 200 posts. Nobody gives a flying shit about anime. Yet, you fuckers keep posting about it. Give it up! If nuking the hell out of Japan would have saved us from this epidemic, then I'm afraid we've missed a valuable opportunity. Of course, we would be stuck with inferior American electronics, but at least we wouldn't have to look at this shit. It's so gay, that I'm starting to get a hardon for CowboyNeal. Jesus Fucking Christ. Somebody needs to tentacle rape those fucking Japanese perverts. They should be sold into slavery and be forced to burn all traces of that sick shit. It's too bad Hitler and Japan were on the same side. I mean, if Germany had invaded Japan instead of Poland, France, etc. we wouldn't have to worry about it. Too bad Hitler was too fucking greedy. Oh well. Only fags like Anime. CowboyNeal likes Anime. Therefore, CowboyNeal is a fag. Isn't he like really fat in real life, or is that just a running joke? Props to the goatse.cx ASCII troll, whoever you are.

    Problem not solved. These stories about Japanese pornography are not always under the same topic. If it did work, I wouldn't be replying to this, because I wouldn't have seen it in the first place! Give it up. We all know the guys running this site are addicted to animated porno and want to shove it down our throats. OK, that's a bad image...

    The above "solution" was given a +5. Considering it doesn't work, why was it given a +5? How about reading the posts before giving them points? Sigh, lazy moderators.
