  1. Ah. I see that I am nothing more to you people than a clown to me laughed at. A dancing monkey here for your entertainment.

    No matter; I will not be laughed out of this forum like I was laughed out of my bat mitzvah. I will not feed the trolls. I will battle anyone anywhere anytime.

    I live for this.

  2. I am surprised this needs to be explained, but if you are simply too dull to see the link between current Digimon fanfic and critiques of the Israeli directed police state in Gaza, then I am not sure what place you have in a graduate school program.  But here we go:

     

    Firstly, I will direct you to the seminal work "Digimon Police Team" (https://www.fanfiction.net/s/5852181/1/Digimon-police-Team) which takes place in the human universe (not the Digimon parallel universe) present day, and follows the teaming up of oppressed humans (implicit is that they are palestinians) with Digimon, meant to overthrow the police state.*  There are many clues in this work to indicate that it is about Israel-Palestine.  The fighting preperation is identical to krav maga, and the main opponents' structure is exactly like the Mossad.  Need I say more?

     

    It is no secret that the Digital Universe has addressed racial tensions.  Now, examine the life cycle of a Digimon.  Digimon develop almost human like capabilities yet are stultified by their ownership by humans.  If not for the enslavement of the Digimon, they would rule the world.  Yet, they live in harmony.  They are a perfect model for what the Israeli-Palestinian situation should be.  Also, consider the first season of Digimon Adventure.  The objective of the main characters is to find their homes, for they have been displaced (!!!!) Throughout the series, the problem escalates into continual violent conflict. In the final Arc 4 of the series, the children are forced to separate from their Digimon into the Human World, presumably forever.  This is embalamatic of the wall between Palestine and Israel.  Yet, it is asserted by Tai that this barrier will not last forever and someday they will be reunited.  It is a hopeful commentary on an end to the Israel Paelstine conflict. 

     

     

    *I will make the addendum that some scholars have interpreted this as a metaphor for Obamacare.  I believe this theory is bunk.

     

     

    I am sure you feel foolish now. 

  3. A troll?? Say that to my katana blade you cowards.

     

    And to address: m-ttl

     - please do not insult the noble otaku by claiming we have not been systematically oppressed.  My otaku status has prevented me from voting, but the government claims it is because I am a felon.  Nothing is transparent under Emperor Obama's rule.

     - with all due respect to YOU, Yu-Gi-Oh is absolutely the correct forum to discuss gender and homosexuality.  There is a strong case to be argued that Yu-Gi-Oh is trans.

     - Dont act as if Digimon Fanfic hasn't produced amazing critiques of the Israel-Palestine crisis

     

    And since so many of you feel the need to address my username, it is simply the first thing that came to mind.  I love anime and I love the kush.

  4. Hello GradCafe-San

     

    I am planning on applying to art history graduate programs this coming year, and i am greatly interested in the theory and criticism of anime, but i don't kno where has good programs for that  :P  i am a junior art history major at a decent school but my professors all say "AnimeBabe420, that is not a field of study"  :angry: This is what i am interested in though, because i do not accept their defeat:

     

    -firstly my senior thesis is "The Proletariat in Dragonballz: Goku's Leftist Leanings"

    - i am interested in gender in the anime universe, and have in the past proposed research topics such as homosexuality in Yugioh, but these subjects have been turned down by my professors.  Questions about Vegeta and Roshi's latent relationship

    - should anime characters be considered people?

    -otaku rights movement

    - how super saiyan would change our historical outlook, ie what if hitler was super saiyan

     

    does anyone know of any anime specialists? anyone open to the critical race theory within the DragonBall Z universe? How has Digimon fanfic responded to the Obama administration?

     

    Arigatō!!! ;)
