Ecology and Biodiversity On speciation 26 Jun 200922 Jun 2018 The Atavism has some thoughts on speciation in response to a high school teacher’s query. He uses the following nice diagram to indicate what some of the core species definitions mean: It’s neat, and therefore… wrong. By which I mean that given the rule that biological organisms do what they… Read More

Random lurker intrusion: I’ve watched a lot of feature-length animation, and one of the most entertaining and visually dazzling such films I’ve seen is Aachi and Ssipak, despite its ostensibly juvenile premise. I definitely recommend it to pretty much anyone whenever and wherever the topic arises.
That’s a very odd looking film. I should add here that I think the Iron Giant is a philosophically satisfying film with a nice existential message. And it’s a brilliant piece of old style animation too.
Fortunately for me, my kids were past that stage of animated pap before it became popular. Otherwise, I’d love it.
“Urotsukidoji: The Movie (1987) Never will I see this of my own volition.” Did you blindly copy that from Siris, or are you echoing Siris’ sentiments? 🙂 BTW, did you see Neon Genesis Evangelion the series or just the movie End of Evangelion?
From what I’ve heard about Urotsukidoji, it’s not much of a mistake. That anime is rather infamous. And no, I wouldn’t want to see it, either. I’d probably have to boil my brain, afterwards. BTW, I don’t see how seeing Neon Genesis means having no life. Now if you saw it and thought it was the deepest, greatest anime EVAR(!), that would be another story, although it is a pretty good deconstruction of the giant robot genre, especially the “kid hero” aspect of it.
It was more that I seem to have seen way too much anime, animation and indeed popular films. I’m pretty sure Kant never had that sort of distraction…
I was never into anime. Too many off-color tropes. The tentacle stuff is probably more PZ Mowgli’s scene.
Whether you see off-color tropes depends a lot on what you look at. I can’t think of anything off-color about Full Metal Alchemist, Monster, or Planetes, for example. The outfit that the Major wears in Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex is ridiculous, but luckily they don’t really dwell on it, and the show is hardly gutter trash (and the Tachikomas are a lot of fun, IMHO, but YMMV). Anime isn’t a genre. It’s just the animated output of Japan, and the Japanese tell a wide variety of stories with animation.
Wittgenstein used to watch westerns. Heh! Get off yer horse and read yer Kant! Are you gonna pull those premises or whistle Dixie!
