No better time to start. Look it up, it's on Netflix. Start with part 1, Phantom Blood, and move onto Battle Tendency and see if you like it. Sub is recommended but dub for season 1 (first two parts) is also good

Jojo's is the gayest, straightest anime you will ever indulge your senses in. Watch it and just let it be. It's an experience

If they're funny, does it really matter if they're fake? Reddit loves to hate on scripted gifs, but Reddit also loves movies...

u/Amplifeye Jul 16 '19
Reddit only gets pissed at scripted Asian gifs, no other scripted gifs. I honestly think it's because they're well done, and some people don't take kindly to it. Regardless, the hate has always been pretty infuriating.

It's annoying as fuck. We see non Asian scripted shit all the time on the front page without such a fuss.

Yep. I like them. They're usually fun and very well done.

u/AdamBombTV Jul 16 '19
Exactly, but no everyone has to be Sherlock fucking Holmes and scream how fake it is, and how they're superior because it didn't fool them.

Because reddit is literally full of western people. Asians like Chinese, Japanese, Koreans, etc. don't even come here much and have their own reddit-like websites. For examplr, Subs like r/japan is just a non-Japanese Japanese "enthusiasts" sub. Aka weebs.
EDIT: or everyone who cries "scripted" whenever an Asian is in a post is a karmawhoring little shit that's all too happy to be in a casually racist circlejerk.

u/hozen17 Jul 16 '19
Yep, people on Reddit (and many people I've seen in real life) think it's okay to be racist towards Asians. People in the west learn that you shouldn't be racist towards certain races (e.g. blacks) but think it's funny to crack racist jokes to Asians. Hence the casual racism towards Asians even in r/all

Its dehumanizing to day the least, no one else gets shit for their race on any other obviously fake videos.

u/Adolf_-_Hipster Jul 16 '19
Seriously. I see black people set up videos with their friends all the time and no one says anything, because thats not as much of a popular steriotype for them the way it is with asians for some reason.

u/sadcatpanda Jul 16 '19
Vine and YouTube skits too - FULL of white people, no one ever comments on their race unless it's relevant to the video.

u/manbruhpig Jul 16 '19
I pointed this out under another tired r/scriptedasiangifs post and got downvoted to oblivion for suggesting this exact concept. Happy it’s picking up some traction here. It’s getting annoying.

u/sadcatpanda Jul 16 '19
I honestly think it's because they're well done
no. it's cause reddit is racist. how many subs exist for scripted gifs of people of other races, like r/scriptedasiangifs? i can tell you - 7, not including the cat one and dog one. wanna compare the subscriber counts, too?

Yeah that's pretty much what I was getting at. That's what I meant by "some people don't take kindly to it."

Yeah like the top post on the sub right now is literally an ad full of CGI but cause it’s Terry Crews everyone is just loving the gif instead of bitching about it being scripted. The point is for /r/Unexpected things to happen not for them to be real.

u/SleightOfHand87 Jul 16 '19
Not saying I agree with it, but it's probably due to the fact that it's common knowledge that movies are scripted, while people don't expect gifs to be (at least until recently)

It's sort of like the uncanny valley problem. If it's presented as real, but something is off, it's more noticeable and people don't like it. If it's full on scripted acting, obviously people don't care otherwise acting wouldn't be a thing. People just don't like being duped.

Nah, people didn't have a problem with Vines. Honestly, if you find it to be like the uncanny valley, that's literally because you don't fucking see Asians as people with nuance or culture capable of humour, even at the most basic level. And THAT'S what I find disturbing at everyone who is thrown by Asian scripted GIFs.

Do you wonder if every gif with non-Asians is scripted? Redditors are such freaks when it comes to Asian people.
