Why aren't other countries at least tryng to compete with Japan in the anime industry?
America, Germany, Britain, even China or Korea could be tryng to develop their own anime and profit from that by competing with Japan.

What a dumb thread.
how did a show like serial experiments lain ever get produced and aired?
>>138897253
It was the late 90s Evangelion and Utena had just aired and there was a sentiment in the air that Anime can find deeper truths in more elaborate ways than traditional mediums. It was the era of Grunge rock. The audiences wanted smart, attentive deconstructions and they weren't afraid of more somber meaning.

The better question is why do imoutos get all the love and never Onee-chans?
it usually speaks to a very specific kind of cuteness. It's closer and more intimate and comfortable. Two characters being close without needing to navigate social norms, etc.
As a siscon I would like to relay my thoughts on the matter of why I have taken such a liking towards this fetish.
Setting is an important thing, both the brother and sister need to live in the same house, that closeness in proximity is an important part for fully realizing the joy of incest. Two fully blood-related beings, such a relationship turning sexual has been reviled and forbidden by the tacit rules of society, although throughout your life you (normally) wouldn't receive warnings against such things, it seems to be innately understood for all people that engaging...

Hello, /a/'s management here.
Despite our best efforts, we have made egregious mistakes in Winter and have returned to the Spring Babbies. While we're looking to bounce right back up, we must run our roster poll once again:

Inside you will find the poll's instructions, our current roster and a list of suggestions. This first round will be much shorter than usual as we believe not much has changed...
