I like it because it's relatable, the characters are funny and its art style (i.e. it's not anime). Also, there aren't many shows like this, the only other one I know is Watamote but I've heard it devolves into some nonsensical fan service shit, hope that never happens to zellig

 No.2669

The characters are well written, the storyline conveys a good slice of life story, the artstyle is beautiful and unique.
its funny when its meant to be, dark when its meant to be, overall it's one of the greatests shows I've watched in a long time.

And lastly, it has a fanbase that shares the same political views as me(excluding /co/ and 'cord).

Made by a small studio and good quality. That's the biggest reason. I just like supporting indie creators. I also like seeing things that are made with foreign (or I suppose for them, domestic) audiences in mind. It gives things more of a charm than when a show is stripped entirely of its cultural identity to have wider international appeal. Might be why anime and East Asian media in general has been growing in popularity. It's uniquely Japanese/Asian and the culture is rarely stripped away. Even if it's not your thing, there's a novelty to that.

Characters were OK. I want more development. I'm curious how Mymy's character will develop. Does she embrace being a Dutch National, but ethnically Japanese? Does she go back to Japan? Can she even speak Japanese well enough to blend in? What causes her to despise being Japanese so much? Do Japanese people reject her as being "not truly Japanese" because she was adopted? (Very likely.) Did her biological parents hate her? Assuming nothing gets sanitized, Massa can take this in many interesting directions that would never happen in a "proper" network TV show. Mymy interests me to no end because it's an angle I've never seen taken seriously. Mymy's character is kind of caught in that limbo that mixed race kids like me are in, where we'll never be "White" or "Japanese." God forbid if you take it to Mymy's levels of coping, but she's a type of character I haven't really seen before and a type of person that definitely exists IRL. Just look at how common double-eyelid surgery is in Asian countries.

>[…] Mymy's character is kind of caught in that limbo that mixed race kids
She's the eastern equivalent of a weaboo, I don't know what kind of crazy headcanon are you making up
>like me
Yikes, just yikes
>where we'll never be "White" or "Japanese."
Massa has clearly shown that's she's treated as a larper, Maya on the other hand…
>Massa can take this in many interesting directions that would never happen in a "proper" network TV show
I think you should take a closer look at how Maya is treated when talking about race. To begin with she's always made fun of Mymy, the VOC larper, as being "Belgian", even though she's portrayed as a SEAmonkey living in some jungle. Coco and Vera also to her as a "Belgian", and Maya always tries to correct the situation by mentioning she's from Brabant (without denying her being "Belgian", she acknowledges that but at least she's from the Dutch half, right?). Am I the only one who sees the subtext here? Just replace everything said about Belgium, a political correct country to have some banter with as the Netherlands, with Indonesia, a country which I guess if you trash talk in the Netherlands will get you in trouble. There's zero change Massa explores anything regarding this topic albeit, simply because he's a pussy too scared of pissing off his national audience doe all of this does make me think he's at least a bit keyed as he lets the idea of Maya the "Belgian" never being treated as (a proper) Dutch linger without repercussion

I should rewatch it more frequently tbh, it's been half a month since I last watched it

 No.2707

nah bro call me schizo but am right!!!!!! ur wrong!!

 No.2712

because it hits my eyeballs very brightly also racism

 No.2713

>>2701
she actually is, that's the whole point of the thing
she was born and raised in Belgium, but tries to deny it by claiming she's from the dutch half of Brabant, which is implied is a lie. her voice actress reportedly has a very strong belgian accent too, which would confirm this.

 No.2714

>>2713
Copium. Maya was born in the Netherlands, but in the south part of it («Brabant»). Her birthplace lies near Belgian-Dutch border (see official «dosje»), and actress's accent is a reference to Flamish dialect of Dutch rather then the Walloon dialect of French

 No.2716

>>2714
the Brabant thing is a lie, even Vera outs her as a belgian

 No.2717

Because it is a bone-chilling, spine-tingling, genre-redefining thoughts-provoking dutch gem with no jumpscares. Also I want to have sex with Mymy.

I personally like watamote because the characters pretty cool and the writers were good at expressing emotion like ongezellig
the fan service shit was unnecessary though

 No.3076

Im currently reading watamote and am on around chapter 70. Does it get really bad later on?
