I don't know of a way yet. Then again this is partly why I gen so much instead of saving art. AI gens mostly don't have watermarks or anti-scraping effects added to them. It makes them look ugly and not worth even saving.

I mostly saved pages from the official version because of its slightly better image quality, though I read the scanlation. I finished it.

To be honest, it was good, but the anime was better. When e.g. Chikane confesses her lustful feelings, that's about 4 pages in the manga, while in the anime it's 3 minutes of good acting and well-written dialogue. The manga build up and delivery fall flat, while the anime is the opposite, and the manga ramps up at the same pace from start to end. But then again, you can do both the manga and anime. The manga can be read in 1-2 hours, it's very short, the anime is an entire 12-episode TV season.

Describing it too much would spoil it because it's so short, but it's a yuri manga with mechas and rape.

Time for yet another of these threads. I've changed the title slightly to fit how they're used nowadays, but it should be the same otherwise. The previous thread is archived at https://archive.ph/Qh8mc

While digging around for train anime, I stumbled across Mushiba Tetsudou in a MAL list of all places. The description sounded like some kind of weird toothbrushing PSA, and I wouldn't be surprised if it was one, but "mechanical biological train" caught my eye and I knew I had to see this.
So what the hell is this shit? It's a 9 minute short about some kid on a mecha steam train that gargles toothpaste and blasts it at cavity people, which turns them into either regular humans or cavity coal to fuel its furnace. There's a bit of a plot which isn't really worth talking or caring about, mostly CG characters and machinery over 2D backgrounds, and some cool environments in Cavity Town. Really, there isn't a whole lot to say about it beyond that it looks nice, nicer than it had to be, and nice enough to go on the rail anime chart.
It's also directed by the guy who's directing that godawful CG Trigun show.

Thanks for the soul crushing depression asshole...

Like another anon said I think the lack of moralizing about how dystopic it is is kind of the point. One of the earliest episodes deals with interceptors which quite literally allow law enforcement or whoever to surveil someone via their own eyes, and when the technology becomes public there is an initial backlash but it just kind of falls to the wayside. Psycho Pass is very similar in this regard.

The currently airing GITS series is far more overt about how shitty life is. Lots of corruption and crime on display, and being a direct adaption of the manga written during the heydey of the cyberpunk era it has a more gritty aesthetic. SAC on the other hand feels more like an extrapolation based on the current culture, with more powerful (and invasive) technology. The corruption and crime is still there, but it's business as usual and you still have to go to work. I enjoy both portrayals.

>Psycho Pass is very similar in this regard.
I don't remember Psycho Pass like that. It's atmosphere and presentation of the world felt more in line with how sad it is. But with GITSes every time I felt a slight disjoint between how evil the scenario presented is, and the way its presented.
Putting aside the naivete of focusing more on small time criminals and revolutionaries instead of giga corpos and governments.
I think I wouldn't feel that if GITSes also showed more laidback or casual things happening in this world. The people don't seem THAT depressed, so it'd be good to show them leading normal lives. More Togusa with his wife or something, and not

I think those little realization scenes would take place right before the proper dystopian setting takes a hold. IIRC certain scenes from Platonic Chain (>>91805) did have those scenes. It did seem like that show took place slightly before a cyberpunk setting.
>>116433
Assuming you haven't already seen it, Haibane Renmei. It's very much not cyberpunk, and I'm not sure if dystopian is the correct word for the atmosphere. Maybe somber? The story takes place in walled in village and going beyond the wall is forbidden.

I somehow haven't seen Haibane Renmei yet, actually. Maybe I'll try it after I get back to G-Reco. I don't have my hopes high for that one, but I've been curious about it for a while and what I saw was at least distinct.

Discuss and recommend light novels. 

>What's a light novel?
Light novels are books—or more specifically, works of popular fiction from Japan. In Japan they are called ranobe, which is a shortened form of raito noberu, or light novel. A typical light novel volume is a bit shorter than a regular one (under 300 pages), is small in size (14.8 cm in height, and 10.6 cm in width), is affordable (around 600-800 yen), includes a number of manga-style illustrations (probably 5 to 10 of them), and is not too difficult to read (generally targeting a young adult audience). Of course, there are exceptions that can be found regarding any one of these points.

Even if they didn't, so what? The volume is still practically unusable, the only difference is that it didn't get recycled into new paper. But I seriously doubt they kept it, considering used manga in nippon is like 50 to 500yen tops.
And shit like shonen jumps or other magazines belong in the trash a week after reading (and most go there). If you never saw the paper quality in those you have no idea how bad it is. Literally BARE minimum.
The "big bad corpo" bought thousands of books and did what they wanted with them. Oh the horror. Find better things to be outraged about, I'm sure you can find some shitskin that murdered whites (again).
I really don't care about some books being bought and used when there's a constant invasion, displacement and murder going on.

The previous anime recommendations thread died. Post and request recommendations in this thread.

I'm going to start off by recommending Otome wa Boku ni Koishiteru: Futari no Elder The Animation (watch this encode https://nyaa.si/view/545396).

It's an anime adaptation of a yuri dating simulator which has the twist that the protagonist is secretly male. It's set in a Christian school for girls and there are no male characters other than the self insert trap protagonist. The characters live an almost perfect idyllic school life (some trouble is part of episode 2's plot) while yuri love develops without the characters themselves noticing, until it comes to a boiling point and they become aware of their feelings and yuri (literally) blossoms in one of the longest and most beautiful scenes of this kind I have ever seen,  followed by a satisfying conclusion. It's an excellent anime. If you like Maria Holic, this is very similar, the main differences are that it's much more focused on the experience and the aesthetic and it doesn't have bullying.

The soundtrack is also quite nice and it was included in the BD set, unfortunately the only torrents are on U2 and they're not good, with one CD being distributed as a .bin file and all of them having corrupted cue sheets and no source for the track names that I can find right now among other sever issues, but if I find the informati

>The sad truth of it all is that this fetish is about self destruction
On some level, yeah. Last I checked, researchers still can't agree on what hypnosis is despite having models for different aspects of it. The explanation I've seen that makes the most sense is one that I really don't like, but sadly fits what I've seen most closely.
It's what esotericists and monks would call a mediumistic technique. To be clear, I'm not saying you're necessarily contacting spirits in it. You're basically training yourself to enter a hyper-passive state that, while not completely defenseless, is really easily influenced by stuff outside it. It's seen as existentially dangerous to yourself, as you're seen as basically bringing yourself weirdly close to the state of death on some level. It also renders the medium/hypnotic subject vulnerable to bullshitting out false memories to satisfy outside expectations in a way that's otherwise only seen in people who, for one reason or another (often due to a surgical procedure formly used to stop seizures), have their left hemispheres isolated from their right.
You can probably extrapolate some of the implications of this. It also makes a couple oddly common genres of hypnosis files (the real stuff, not the tranny music videos) make more sense. On some level I really

>esoteric weird shit in context of trap/tranny hypno artist trooning out
Welcome back /animu/.

Anyway, I checked out the guy on gelbooru, and he just seemed like a very mid online porn artist, so I don't really get why so many anons here think about him so much.
So in short: literally who?

Basically he was one of maybe four competent artists working with the tag in the western hemisphere for most of his pre-troon career, with actual skill and inventive scenarios and comics and such. Everyone else was some flavor of deviantard doodling whatever cartoon he fixated on jungle book was and still is a big one with whatever other garbage tier fetishes he had also fixated on, or whatever he could get paid to draw. Lots of inflation, furshit and badly drawn feet, sometimes all three. Add to this how most jap artists just use mind control as a thin excuse for either out-of-character slutting or NTR and you can hopefully see why this guy was a big deal.
One detail that I personally liked about his art (which nobody else seemed to care about) was he actually had a grasp on subtle proportional differences between men and women, like in the shape of the fingers, that most western tag artists ignore because they learned by copying Disneyesque and/or the "draw a girl call it a boy" school of anime. I appreciated that because I appreciate when people sweat the small stuff, and needless to say this was gone from the few pics I checked that he did after he trooned.
