Piracy is good and you should do more of it. Use https://aniwave.to/ and https://4anime.gg/ for streaming, and https://nyaa.si/ for torrents. Piracy is the only means of digital protest that audiences have to fight poor worker treatment.

So the message of these past few episodes where Yor is trying to find her life mission is "You must kill for an unspecified goal, and secure the existence of your family and a future for your children"? (along with all the Shinzo Abe child-rearing bullshit)

I like this show just because Anya and her relations with her mom and dad cute cute, but ugh. Why does my political education have to ruin my enjoyment of mainstream media. I especially like (abhor) how the target audience (anime fans) are exactly the wrong people to be receiving these shit themes, although it's a chicken and egg scenario - maybe their prior anime watching habits made them the way they are.

The comic eventually gets back to Anya hijinks, but yeah, it's a bummer that the cute found family show is sprinkled with bits of Shinzo Abe thought.

Anime is 99% fascists playing with dolls and 1% cool psychic babies exploding when it should be the opposite

Whenever someone talks about creating/raising more children, I just say “are you paying me child raising money?”
