Culture Kill la Kill Creator: Anime Fanservice Is Necessary or "Everyone Will Die" - The creators of Studio Trigger's Kill la Kill make a bizarre case for the show's fanservice, arguing that it's necessary for the fate of humanity.

The creators of Studio Trigger's popular Kill la Kill anime series have made an intriguing case for the show's blatant fanservice, arguing that it's an essential component of both the medium and the show itself for the fate of humanity.

Japanese outlet Febri spoke to Kill la Kill writer Kazuki Nakashima and director Hiroyuki Imaishi. As Nakashima joked that bathtub peeking scenes were probably off-limits these days except for a good reason, like a character's life being at stake, he outlined his view on fanservice somewhat more seriously. "We're making a commercial work, so we want the audience to see it. I don't care if they say, 'I don't get it,' but I don't want them to feel unnecessarily uncomfortable. On the other hand, if we make the work completely sterile, people's immunity will be weakened, and they will all die. Therefore, there is a way of thinking that we should dare to take on the stigma and transmit harmful things to the public."



As Imaishi and Nakashima laughed, the latter continued, "We do it with the high aspiration that 'this is necessary for the immunity of human beings.' We'll never be appreciated for it, but we're willing to go out in disgrace for the sake of humanity. There is a way to do it with that kind of feeling (laughs)." Imaishi added, "Be that as it may, I don't want to perish if I can help it."

Kill la Kill was the first televised anime series by Studio Trigger and one of the most popular anime of the last decade, ranking 55th out of over 20,000 anime on MyAnimeList (1.7 million members). It represented the beginning of a slew of original works, with Trigger now well-known for maintaining a consistent aesthetic of loose, dynamic art across all its anime. Their titles include the popular Darling in the Franxxx, Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, Kiznaiver, Little Witch Academia and the currently airing Delicious in Dungeon on Netflix.

Kill la Kill streams on Crunchyroll, which describes the series: "After 6 years since their collaboration on the ground-breaking anime series, Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann, Hiroyuki Imaishi and Kazuki Nakashima are back to shock the world! Ryuko Matoi is a vagrant schoolgirl traveling from place to place searching for clues to the truth behind her father’s death—the 'woman with the scissor blade.' The journey has led Ryuko to Honnouji Academy."

Kill La Kill also had those MILF oppai for true connoisseurs:

Its pretty hard to top how fucked up this genocidal maniac was, the poster child of "don't stick your dick in fucking crazy".

Yeah and it had a following of about 20 tumblr cat ladies

There's a world beyond the internet

Yeah? I don't know about you but when people, including myself, talk about "uglification" they're referring to content in media and the appearance of products. Unless you meant that in the 2020's you've found yourself finding ugly perverts at your local grocer or at your workplace.

Do you want to specify what you meant, if you weren't talking about media?

Both of those countries having porn bans, and yet they don't fix their birth rate issues, is also noticeable.

Would be interesting to see what North Best Korea's birth rate is.

Would be interesting to see what North Best Korea's birth rate is.

Best Korea's birth rates are better than their Worst neighbors in the South, but not by much. And wasn't there also the report that Kim Jong-Un was literally crying for people to have more children?

Based and utter truth speaking!

Between him and Fire Force author, there are still heroes in anime/manga. Too bad most of the Japanese gaming ones have been forced out, silenced and or marginalized already for the most part.

Great series too. (not because of the fanservice but it certainly puts it up there) It confuses SJ types, feminists and prog moralists so much too. Half seethe so hard over the series and some of the feminists defend it as empowerment. They are both retarded because it's fiction.. a fictional character can't be objectified or disempowered, nor can they be empowered. Fire Force is a great series too. (my pfp is from it)

Imagination, fiction and fantasy is quickly dying in the current super serial, glass half empty SJ obsessed cultures around entertainment and fiction.

EDIT: Are we really talking about the fictional age of colored dots?! Really? lol

Somewhere a long the way literally everyone has turned into a boring ass moral scold for one side or the other and this borderline Gen Xer finds it incredible weird. You fucking puritanical Millennial, Soylennial, and Zoomie fucks, they used to mail fucking soft core porn to every house in America for the Holidays and no one gave a shit. Good old Sears Catalog. "Oh my God, is that cartoon of legal age?" Christ Above, it's like none of you had girlfriends when you were teenagers.


Get with the modern standard, she's under 25, her frontal cortex hasn't fully matured yet.

This all

They aren't real, and I thought troons had a problem telling fantasy and reality apart!

But there is another reason why most anime and manga are set in high school, or have teenage leads (apart from being the target audience) is that work life in Japan is fucking harsh! In Japan, high school is the most fun and flexible time in a person's life, when they still had some freedom, and dreams before being thrown into the meat grinder of the Japanese labour market. They literally have a word over there for working to death (Karoshi), so let the poor overworked Japanese salaryman enjoy his big teen anime titties in peace.

Yup.. The culture dictates that your life if basically over once you leave school.

China and South Korea also have similar words for working to death. (guolaosi and gwarosa, respectively) However, their media doesn't (?) lean as heavily into teenage leads, and their governments seem to be more against escapism, i.e. China being a total nanny-state, and things such as 996 work hours don't help, and South Korea tries its hardest to take the bad aspects of East Asian countries (i.e. suicide rates), and make it even worse. K-Pop stars and Korean E-Sports players being pretty much slave labor in terms of the amount of work people in those industries have to do, would put Japan's meat grinder labor market to shame. Both of those countries having porn bans, and yet they don't fix their birth rate issues, is also noticeable.

SK has a very powerful feminist social and political ideology/cult running through it.. Like hardcore feminazi kind of feminists (bordering on segregationist levels) With major political and media power. Porn is basically banned, censored or not.. They even try to crack down on korean hentai, already censored by law.

Imaishi added, "Be that as it may, I don't want to perish if I can help it."

It’s sad that we live in a world where the only semi-sane advocates of “dangerous ideas” that journo scum give any airtime to are pornographers.

I was talking about uglification in media. What are you on about?

Unless you meant that in the 2020's you've found yourself finding ugly perverts at your local grocer or at your workplace.

This ain't wrong. The number of perverts and degens irl exploded after uglification, but that could just coincide with the rise of fetish porn/communities

Are you ESL or some shit?

The number of perverts and degens irl exploded after uglification

I'm sorry that you apparently live in such a shithole. The point I made initially is that this shit started in the late 00's, early 2010's, I don't get why you're of the opinion that it started a full decade later than it did.

Article from when Anita and pals visited the U.N. in 2015. This was at a minimum two years into her breakout appearance in corporate media.

My other point was that this:

it seems like people were less sick-minded and perverted during the 2000's and early 2010's

is absolutely laughably fucking false if you were old enough to ride a bike during that era. The internet is cleaner and less degenerate now than it has ever been even if the rainbow folks have more institutional power and societal acceptance on mainstream social media websites.

Nigger I'm talking about the real world (the world beyond the internet) being less full of overtly-faggy pervs back before uglification dominated the media.

I'm sorry you spent the 2000's hanging around tweaker bars and juggalo conventions, I guess...
