Anime apologetics with a focus on masculinity and power fantasies.

I'm not a big anime fan myself, but I'm playing through Persona 5 for the first time right now, so it's been on my mind.

Rules

1. Content of posts

All top-level posts should be a link to a video essay that isn't hosted behind a paywall. Any topic is welcome, provided it doesn't break one of the other rules. What's a video essay? See below.

2. Title format

Each post title should include the title of the video, its creator, and its duration in the format [MM:SS] or [HH:MM:SS].

3. Be nice

Be respectful and constructive. No harassment. No grossly offensive images. No hate including expressions of racism, misogyny, transphobia, ableism, xenophobia, homophobia, etc. (although videos where these topics are merely being analyzed are okay).

4. No shitposts

Noticeably low-quality content and videos that stretch any reasonable definition of "video essay" will be removed. If you're not trying to break this rule, you probably aren't.

5. No spam

Don't post the same video multiple times in a short time frame. Don't flood the community with many videos from a single creator at once.

"Video essay"?

"Video essay" is loose genre classification for a type of video that makes an argument or critique, or explains a point of view, usually from a single creator's perspective. They can be short or long, casual or formal, modest or theatrical, and cover any topic.

Video essays are slightly different from documentaries, media reviews, and video journalism, but the lines are blurry, and videos that aren't neatly classifiable are still welcome.
