It's time for many of these so-called anime/JRPG "fans" to admit, that they have outgrown much of the media they've once consumed. If you feel "icky" over seeing a romance option for a teenage character, or seeing half-naked chicks, it's time to move onto a different genre.
Guys, i hate to break it to you, but your favorite Battle Shonen manga, was only made to appeal to teenage boys. I guarantee you, that half of you are reaching, or halfway through your 40's, aren't the target demographics for the majority of Japanese pop culture.
Now that doesn't mean that you can't still enjoy a good segment of Japanese media, but that means you're going to have to step out of the kiddie pool & actually get into the hardcore stuff. I'm talking about Sienen, Josei, or even eroge. The stuff, that appeals to YOUR age group!

The literal destruction, subversion & absolute division, that occurred with The Lord of The Rings" fandom, has genuinely been one of the most heartbreaking & soul-crushing things i've seen.
That right there, should've shown people how even the greats can fall to darkness.
What's even worse, is that the powers that be waited for the creator's son to pass away, before pulling this shit, because they KNEW that Christopher Tolkien wouldn't have stood for that bullshit & understood his father's legacy on wanting people to be united, in a common bond!
I just cannot help, but think that all this shit is done on purpose, to get people fighting amongst each other, so we're distracted, from what's REALLY going on, underneath our noses!
Communists don't actually want unity & cohesion. They want chaos, so they can have free reign.
So, if you're looking for a great place for getting start up boot videos for your Steam Deck, check out Steam Deck Repo. They have an already sizeable amount of Steam Deck boot vids, for you to try. All of them very creative. LOL. steamdeckrepo.com
Since i'm a nice guy, i'm going to give some of my mutuals a fair bit of exposure to some boot vids, based on their personal likes, in the even they get a Steam Deck.
So, you want to know how to take back culture huh? Tired of your hobbies being used as activist soapboxes & being censored to no end? Feel that the world is getting more darker & oppressive? Well, let me give you some tips on how to improve things, for the better.
#1: Live a good life.
You can't change culture, if you're angry & miserable all the time. Take a break from the net. Enjoy your favorite game. Go out of town, for a weekend. Take a trip.
Eat, drink & be merry. Enjoy life for what it is!
The best revenge is living a good life!
#2: Stay Focused.
Never let them demoralize you, into accepting defeat. Always stay on-top & always strive to overcome obstacles. If you're passionate about something, then don't give up. No matter what!
The time is now, more than ever before, to start supporting independent developers, who aren't beholden to "global standards" & will OPENLY fight tooth & nail for freedom of expression!
Japan literally created their own doujin culture, that has broken away from the mainstream. They run multiple conventions, that are made for fans, by fans.
We in America & the west can do the same thing, but it takes a MASSIVE amount of sacrifice & willpower!
We can't sit back & wait for things to get better. We have to take things into our own hands & create our OWN culture!
If the mainstream doesn't want to give us what we want anymore, then we give them the finger & create our own shit away from them! Be their replacement!
No, i haven't watched Rings of Power. Have no interest to. I've also haven't watched House of Dragons & The Sandman. I have no interest in supporting woke Hollywood.
I'd much rather create my own entertainment & maintain my dignity, than to give my money to these woke creeps.
Now some may say that "life is too short to be this closed-off" & "it's not THAT bad, give it a chance"! I say, "where's your dignity"?!
The Sandman & House of Dragons did the same raceswapping & woke bullshit, that Rings of Power did, but only RoP gets shit for it!? Nah fam.
I've seen a lot of the "Fandom Menace" instantly become massive hypocrites, and giving the VERY SAME PEOPLE who called them racists & fascists money, because they managed to not make House of Dragons a flaming dumpster fire.
All that spotlight, could've went to an indie creator.
