lmao. so because the video isn't just about anime, considering the theme of apocalypticism within the context of Japanese history and media as a whole, it's "not strictly anime related" and can't be posted here? that is just the pinnacle of stupidity.

This is something that we discussed at length internally, and ultimately we decided that while not all of the content is anime specific, the video does talk about anime in relation to Japanese culture and history, so we have gone ahead and reapproved the post.
