Even that one about literal terrorists ends up changing absolutely nothing about society.

Afaik none, even if there is more or less revolutionary idea or character presented as positive, at some point class collaboration is always presented as the only possibly good outcome. So, more or less like entirety of capitalist media.

Red Sails: The Swerve

Anti-Communism is deeply embedded in the publishing industry in Japan

That being said, some revolutionary optimism sneaks by, I’ve heard One Piece is good.

I tried One Piece, but Usopp’s face is way too gonk-adjacent for me to be able to tolerate it

It’s easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of capitalism.

I haven’t finished it, but probably the Karl Marx one(though it is a donghua, not an anime)

Isn’t One Piece revolutionary? I didn’t watch it since you know, number of episodes, but I heard that it is. And which is the one about terrorists?

I guess but it kind of depends on the arc, then again I’m personally jaded with one piece so that clouds my judgement.

Edit: there’s like a legitimate revolutionary movement in the show, I’m more so referencing certain arcs and their values.

I just checked that one, idk maybe. It’s apparently from 2014 but the artstyle looks WAY older for some reason.

Yup, that one felt like it had potential but half-way through it becomes the same old “the problem were the bad aplles in the system”

Anime - Socialism with Kawaii Characteristics

!animemes@lemmygrad.ml

Create post

Welcome to Lemmygrad’s corner dedicated to anime memes and discussion! (manga/manhua/manhwa/donghua/aeni count too)

Remember to Read the Rules™:

  1. Absolutely no racism, no transphobia, no homophobia, no ableism, no misogyny, none of that!

  2. No low-quality images. Images containing text should be legible.

  3. Please mark spoilers with the prefix “[SPOILER]” in the title of your post.

  4. Please mark NSFW content as such. This does not, however, mean you can post hentai.

  5. Absolutely no NSFW content containing or involving minors will be tolerated.

Please report any posts or comments that are in violation of the rules.

Guidelines

  1. Try to keep it left; memes don’t need to be socialist in nature, but it’d be nice if we could keep the discussions that way.

  2. Posts do not necessarily need to be about anime memes, they can also be about other things related to anime, or having an ‘anime’ art style.

  3. Try to provide sources for the images you post.

  4. There’s nothing else for now. We hope you have a great time!
