Man gets death sentence for killing 36 people in arson attack at anime studio in Japan

Authorities said Aoba, who screamed "You die!" during the attack, was neither a current nor former employee of Kyoto Animation Company, a renowned producer of hit TV series.

Sorry but 😂

Japan is my favourite culture, though it is a little more repressed than I prefer, I find it to be the most beautiful. The only thing I take issue with is, and this is going to sound like kink shaming but when it comes to pedophilia yes I am going to kink shame, is the vile nature of hentai. Here comes an actual unfair kink shame crack, but it is basically depravity maxed out. Underage girls, explosive diarrhea being raped by a tentacle monster. Maxed out.

Of course I know I'm generalizing and not every Japanese man is ultimate pervert.

But yeah this is what we see when we have these levels of repression.

But still my favourite. Then Scandinavia second. Then Russia.

Along with hearing what you like about Russia, I'd love to hear your opinion on Scandinavia as well.


I'm planning a group trip with my friends for 2027. Why so far out you may ask? I'm giving them ample time to save up as much money as possible. If they can't do that and make the trip in 3 years they will no longer be friends of mines. I'm cutting them off.

They're dark and bleak, I like dark and bleak. And Andrei Tarkovsky is one of my favourite film directors. I generally enjoy their artistic outlooks. Obviously I have my problems with Putin who doesn't.

Scandinavian art has a very ethereal quality that I just eat up. They're very chill. While I am not exactly socialist though I do respect the philosophy, I like it when people take their logic all the way, and Scandinavia definitely takes their socialist logic all the way. Also dark and pretty.

Nice, I'd like to visit as well.

Oh god, I hate this whole pessimistic shit about my fellow eastern Europeans. To me it always seemed to be rooted in this idea that adults have to be all grim and focused on negativity, while cheery people are somehow childish and stupid. Having grown up in Russian/Soviet culture there is actually very little that I like about it.

Darkness does not necessarily imply pessimism and sadness. Most dark people are not sad. We acknowledge the dark side of life but manage to maintain "Happiness." It's true, Russian culture can be a little more "Sad." I enjoy observing this, it is beautiful, I am not a sad person myself.

As an insider I gotta say that this Russian way of thinking unfortunately really is more pompous pessimism that beautiful darkness, the latter of which I also certainly can dig. Maybe our perspectives differ due to you knowing the art but me also knowing the actual people.

As an outsider I have no emotional attachment to the culture and can observe it without personal feelings.

Agree to disagree.

I'm sorry, that came across with pomposity. I don't mean to say I am observing objectively and you subjectively, we are both right.
