New Chilean lawmaker does an Attack on Titan salute after making her first vote (and yes it's an explicit reference because she's wearing an Attack on Titan shield pin too) https://t.co/kRaY0sxyuH— Populism Updates (@PopulismUpdates) March 11, 2022
Yeah, I'm not big on anime but I gave it a shot and really liked it at first. Then the genre pivot happens and you're like, 'yup, it's anime alright'. You're not going to get some paradigm shifting show, you'll have the same Asian soap opera tropes with the cute bunny talk, constant crying, and absolutely inane dialogue.
Have you ever watched Hunter x Hunter? It's probably my overall favorite at this point. Its a shounen where the final big baddie isn't defeated through some bullshit powerup and the protagonist wins in the end, but through dialogue and philosophy (and also fighting)
U mean the chimera ant arc? Because other than that while I love HxH its politics and ideology just rub me the wrong way. It's colonization distilled into anime form with cool fights and powers.

What did the other arcs have to do with colonization? They're mostly smaller scale and follow our characters and friends around?
