    For someone that hates the right you make a lot of generalizations. Every country with power is a mess politically, but that says nothing about their art.

      I’m not going to go on a quest for iskeai Reaganomics and general nationalistic and racist themes, but I’m sure you won’t have a hard time with some self study on that front.

        That’s funny because if you actually watched Overlord you’d know Ainz’ goal (besides getting back to the real world) is to create a utopia where all races are equal. But keep throwing buzzwords if it makes you feel good.

          I was making a general statement about when anime has a political theme, not on that particular anime. Though I guess you could find a utopian vision in a nation that views all to be equally worthless and champions genocide and calling the dark young of shub niggurath to stomp on people.

            Only anime I know of where this is actually a thing is Attack on Titan, but I haven’t watched the last season (apparently it deviates from the source material, maybe for this reason, which is why I haven’t).

            Yeah, I do like multifaceted morally grey and villainous characters with interesting or even aspiring motives. I highly recommend Hunter X Hunter, The number of characters in that anime that aren’t majorly flawed in one way or another you can count on your fingers. One of the communities favorite characters is a murderous pedo clown that serves as the main characters mentor and drop-in father-figure for a large part of the story. If you watch any single anime and never watch anime again, let it be HxH.
