Me when early civilizations arise on fertile river banks and also have walls for defense

i mean it's not a bad design for a city, but when you get 20 anime a year that take place in a city designed like that it becomes a little grating

of course the REAL problem there is that we get 20 isekai a year that are at best mid and at worst actively harmful, and they're all exactly the fucking same. if they were all good, creative, and interesting anime no one would care

I want even MORE isekai. Another season of that parallel world pharmacist show would be great

[–] [email protected] 7 points 8 months ago (1 children)

you are part of the problem. we need less anime, and if we just cut isekai production entirely that would go a massive way towards solving the issue

[–] [email protected] 7 points 8 months ago (1 children)

counterpoint: i like isekai and the show i just mentioned was fun

[–] [email protected] 10 points 8 months ago (1 children)

anime isn't for having "fun" with, it's for 50 episode mecha anime about colonialist powers crushing all opposition or surrealist deconstructions of the gender binary that leave you emotionally devastated and eternally changed as a person

(i was joking but clearly was not sufficiently clear or funny about it)

“Sufficiently clear” will always vary from person to person because creature

[–] [email protected] 5 points 8 months ago (2 children)

They dont build walkable cities like this anymore. Not a car in sight.

[–] [email protected] 35 points 8 months ago

this kind of smart, walkable, mixed use urbanism is illegal to build in most american cities

[–] [email protected] 11 points 8 months ago

even the walls walk

Couple do chariots tho

It's surrounded by farms instead of generic rolling grass hills though

Economics? In my escapist fantasy?

That always peeves me about survival crafting games. Sure, I made my huge awesome fantasy castle, but where are the bustling peasants that I threaten with murder if they don't give me a cut of their stuff?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Palworld I guess answered the serf/slave question for survival games

[–] [email protected] 5 points 8 months ago

True, true.

Oh no it looks like the city from AoT

Don't trust anyone posting with a tsukihime character as pfp

[–] [email protected] 9 points 8 months ago (1 children)

misread this as referring to me and was very confused by the person who knows tsukihime well enough to have bad blood with fans but who thinks the golden witch beatrice is from tsukihime

[–] [email protected] 8 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I have no bad blood with tsukihime fans, the joke mainly lies in the fact that my profile pic is Ciel (another character from tsukihime)

[–] [email protected] 7 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (1 children)

ohhh i didn't even notice that lmao. i assumed it was an fgo character because she has the new takeuchi face

[–] [email protected] 6 points 8 months ago

The art is based of the remake for tsuki which alters the character designs (of which I have criticisms, but they're fine for the most part) but yeah fgo is a huge mess and I don't recommend anyone touch it unless they know what they're getting into.

Needs another wall surrounding the farmland

Reincarnated as a Priest in a Bronze Age Civilization!

The show is a slice of life where the isekai protagonist is a laborer in a temple/bathhouse in the city.
