Konosuba and Re:Zero. Nobody is fan of Overlord anime.
Tanya fans are the most cultured and cultivated fans

Has the OP been TL'd yet?

Konosuba easily.

The OL chibi shorts were okay, the BD bundled ones were better then the ones airing during the show.

i think he mixed up darkness and aqua

Aqua is for anal

Tanya was a really fun show, I also learned alot about WW1 history from it.

Your sexual inventive amazes me, user.

Any true tatsuki cultist should avoid this show, because the great satan Kadokawa is involved.

Re:Zero will be the second (or maybe first?) casting handing this alongside Konosuba characters. The one people can avoid watching is Tanya.

Thanks?

re:zero hasnt been something ive wanted to see
to be honest i hate 90% of isekai , but konosuba was more of a comedy so that gets an exception, overlord in my opinion is "unique" enough to be watchable and tanya is in the same boat as overlord

She purifies her own shit as you push it back in on her trip to the bone zone. All this while Demiurge is on the sidelines cheering Ainz on yelling "SASUGA AINZ-SAMA" because he's going to make demigod babies from the butthole of a goddess.

Except the trip to the bone zone is short lived as he gets ultra purified by Aqua right before Albedo beheads her for "taking Ainz from her" and the fact he forgot she was a holy goddess so no amount of calcium, keikaku, and cash shop items will save him

Why in the fuck is this show only 12 minutes long? I mean I know WHY but I don't care, it should be full length. Kadokawa is fucking stupid.

>Unintentionally self-inserted to Ainz inserting himself into a Goddess
fucking isekai isekai

>objectively wrong sequence of events just to kill ainz somehow
Cringe, Ainz captures everyone and sends them to the happy farm to make dozens of nice mixed babies.

Naw 10-15 minutes is the exact right length for a show like this.

Re:Zero's fan base made me not want to watch the show.
I still have not and won't.

Rem was a mistake

That’s a dumb mentality in general and especially when it comes to anime.

Easy AOTS in a shit season, but would still be one of the better ones in a normal one.

Are you being ironic? Kadokawa is involved in most anime that gets made.

if he really liked darkness he'd put her in trash tier since that's where she'd want to be

>Edgy handwave end
Not like he'd actually die, but if anyone needs to be bred its Shalltear with Megumin

>listening to other people so much that you make your decisions about things entirely based on your opinions of your interactions with them
They never said most people who come to Yea Forums were smart. I smell newfag.

Is this gonna be 12 episodes or KADOKAWA gonna be a jew with this as with Konosuba and only be 10?

I know this will be a comedy anime first and foremost, but should I watch the 2nd season of overlord and all of tanya in general before this? I don't know who any of the soldier characters are besides the blonde one.

None of the characters from Tanya’s show actually matter except Tanya.

You don't really have to, but watch Youjo Senki anyway because it's good. As for Overlord just watch the Ple Ple Pleiades shorts and OVAs

Tanya's team are all literal whos (except for maybe Visha). Tanya is the only one that matters.

which MC is most likely to be cucked by another MC

Subaru by literally anyone.

Kazuma and Toyota are definitely gonna cuck each other at some point.

Subaru by Kazuma.

This shit is too much. They should just have the avengers show up and complete this shit show.

Kazuma, Darkness will spend all her time trying to get Ainz to torture her, Megumin will join Tanya's squad as a mobile artillery piece, and Aqua will dissapear into the staff room trying to steal Rerugen's whiskey.

Seeing this makes now now dream of having a Smash bros game but with isekai characters.

I don’t disagree, but Subura actually experiences backlash for being an overzealous clueless fucktard which is part of the charm of the series. He’s kind of like that fat retard in full metal jacket, except not quite as autistic and has a power which makes his situation a bit less tragic and forces him to actually grow and mature.

How are we enjoying the isekai cinematic universe?

It's really funny how Tanya counts as both the main hero and the main heroine of YS. As expected of LoliJJI.

I thought this was the case. Out of the 4, Youjo Senki was watched the least.

What about Plei Plei Pleiades characters? Also Re:Zero has character absent here too... I think it's because of the movie.

Drop Re:Zero for Hataraku Maou-sama.

Lehrgen (glasses), Zettour (cigar), Konig (banana face), Viktorya (fuck spelling CHOCO's last name), Neumann (fat dude). The Naruto looking blond one is Grantz, I think?

Seems like you didnt catch on to the commonality. All these franchises are own buy Kadokawa, a publishing company.

Megumin's not dumb, but she has certain qualities that make her act impulsively in certain situations. Like when a big red button appears.

Legit my favorite part of Re:Zero S1 was the episode preview where Emilia acted like Megumin and Subaru was confused as fuck.

Well Aqua technically isn't human.

Hence "male".

Don’t care, either way you’re autistic for trying prove to me you’re not a samefag and not being able to realize the obvious reasons why Danmachi should naturally be categorized as Isekai.

Right obviously. Better to be a manlet than to be killed by an autist.

Sure, if you try hard enough.

Nah, that's YA fiction.

maybe it was isekai in his mind...

Well i'm already a turbo manlet clocking in at a 5'4 so there's no fucking downsides

native isekai is still isekai

What you mean to say is "DanMachi is the same wish fulfillment bullshit in a Dragon Quest/Tower of Druaga derivative fantasy world 95% of isekai is."

It is not an isekai, and claiming it is makes you look retarded.

>why Danmachi should naturally be categorized as Isekai.
By definition it doesn't fit the criteria for the description. No one is transported to another world. It's just a fantasy anime.
The only autist here is you, who thinks that:
>fantasy anime + protag who slowly increases his power + lots of heroines = isekai

Native implies either an in-world reincarnation or the story focuses on a character originally from the land being isekai'd into. Goblin Slayer is neither, it is but with D&D as it's derivative fantasy.

It doesn’t because language changes constantly, and complaining about “this word strictly used to mean X back in MY day” makes you a dementia-ridden boomer.

This and that is not the same thing. There are scifi isekai stories without love interests and protag strengthening. There are isekai that aren't power fantasies too. Isekai does not have as many defining traits as you think it has. It's just that power fantasy isekai has been really popular this last decade. If you start misusing it to apply to all power fantasy series then the term loses the meaning for it's existence.
In comparison the Western genre has more defining traits, thus making it applicable to a change of backdrop, because it is still recognizably a western.

Yay! A crossover always brings out the best of each show! It certainly doesn't smack of desperation. The priorities are always creative and not driven by marketing

if isekai wasn't discernible then it wouldn't be a trend. why would there be literal hundreds of isekai titles if their authors didn't think putting that word in the name didn't signal a certain type of story to it's potential readers?
Westerns weren't called Westerns with only that first movie out. it also went through it's own process of other people copying and experimenting with the idea. and probably had it's own retards complaining what was or wasn't a real Western.

I really don't want to start with powerlevel faggotry, but Aqua doesn't seem to have anywhere near the fighting power of a low level DnD god. And Ainz was farming those while still in Ygg.
Also while clerics do have an advantage against undead, it's not so massive as you think.

>tanya S3 final episode screenshot

that just means that isekai that aren't power fantasies aren't "isekai"(genre) in the same way a movie that's just set in the Western frontier but isn't a cowboy tragedy isn't a "Western"(genre)
but isekai as a genre has even more sub genres below or parallel to it. like 'nation building iseka' or 'otome isekai. which also have their own non-isekai off shoots which keep the mechanic of using modern knowledge through various plot conveniences.'

How big is the seiyu budget for this show?

SAO isn't an isekai because it takes place in a virtual world and the method to get back home is direct -- win the game.

I'm not saying it isn't discernible. I'm saying that you are stretching the term out to be more of an umbrella than it really is. It's almost like saying that a modern detective show is a medieval fantasy show, because they both contain groups of companions traveling together through a story arc. It's a waaay too broad comparison. They could both be drama series, but they aren't both medieval fantasy series.
Danmachi and Re:Zero are both high fantasy series, but they aren't both isekai.
I agree with this, but it still doesn't make Goblin Slayer or Danmachi isekai shows. They don't fit the most basic definition of what an isekai show is.

yes
that's VRMMO genre

no

yes

what is or isn't isekai is debatable. these types of genres inherently have fuzzy borders. people calling Goblin Slayer a native isekai was more people trolling pedants than actually categorizing it as isekai. but simply saying something isn't isekai JUST because it doesn't involve 'another world' is childish and unproductive.
if you go through the isekai tag on mangadex, the vast majority of the series share tropes and conventions between them that are more consistent than you're giving credit for.

Danmachi and SAO's cases are more nuanced with their contribution to the genre's rise and influence of it's tropes to be significant for most people to count them in.

While I enjoy all four series to varying degrees, rezerofags really are the worst.

Watch Tanya. Don't bother with overlord, you'll just be disappointed. You only need the first season under your belt for this anyway.

>native isekai autists are still here

I'd argue the first season of Overlord isn't abject garbage, unlike II and III.

It was already debated in a thread earlier that if Ainz tried to kill everyone else, he basically gets countered by Subaru + Aqua.

raildex fags please go back to your general

I was just singling out his point about feudal Japan. also thought about bringing up Cowboy Bebop but that reference might have been somehow lost on a retard like him.

The problem with Subaru is that we don't know how his power works. If it's time related arguably Ainz is immune to that.
Aqua gets shit on, she actually has no answer to an epic-level lich that Ainz is. The WN makes Overlord an evolution of Demilich, which by itself is a Cr 29 (level 90ish in Overlord) encounter in D&D. Remember that she couldn't instant purge the Dullahan, she just doesn't have the feats necessary.

>what is or isn't isekai is debatable
I agree with this, but it's a lot less fuzzy then you are making it out to be. You are pointing out SAO, which is an actual good example of this. I agree with the majority here in thinking that it's clearly an isekai, but if you want to be technical you could argue that since the game world is virtual it wouldn't count.
My argument would be that the since the characters and plot clearly go to/revolve around another world narratively it counts just fine.
>saying something isn't isekai JUST because it doesn't involve 'another world' is childish and unproductive.
That is the only definition. That's why it's called isekai for fucks sake.
>Danmachi and SAO's cases are more nuanced with their contribution to the genre's rise and influence of it's tropes
You are also ignoring my arguments here. Power fantasies and fantasy adventure shows have grown increasingly popular over the last decade. Isekai shows include a portion of these, but not all of them. There are also shows like Isekai Shokudou, which contain heavy themes from high fantasy settings, but isn't targeting the same audience from these other shows with the same premises.
Again, you aren't going to be finding seasoned anime communities accepting the misuse of labeling shows like Goblin slayer etc to be an isekai. And you DEFINITIVELY aren't going to be finding anime fans in Japan using the term like that.
Anyway it's the middle of the night here, so I'm going to bed. I hope you can chose to accept the situation user.

I would call it 'western inspired', despite how they pitch it. I'm sure producers have an incentive to brand things as being a true western simply because it has similar themes, and perhaps the industry even treats it as such, but that's largely to get around the filters of autistic people that inherently believe a movie inspired by a genre is inherently going to be of lower quality than one that is pure in form.

I stick to my guns. Kentucky bourbon can only be made in Kentucky as well. No matter how closely you reproduce the production methods.

underrated

Attached: 1538397971258.jpg (220x202, 16K)

I'd mostly argue that SAO isn't an Isekai until the Alicization arc simply because it is clearly not a permanent world, clearly is not a self-contained world, and is clearly, in all senses of the word, simply not a 'world'. A setting, sure, but after the first arc Kirito logs in and out whenever the fuck he wants like a real video game, and even during the first arc we only nominally are in another world, the main purpose is to provide an arbitrary evil antagonist and nip MC with a goal. The world-setting itself gets absolutely no attention because it isn't really a world, any more than the Mario setting established by the first platformer games constituted a world.

>Kentucky bourbon can only be made in Kentucky as well. No matter how closely you reproduce the production methods.
Americans would disagree with you
See """"Parmesan"""" cheese and """New York Champagne""".

>That is the only definition. That's why it's called isekai for fucks sake.
that's just the namesake. again, Westerns aren't defined by their location despite being called that because the majority of the films took place in the American West during the genre's inception.
>There are also shows like Isekai Shokudou, which contain heavy themes from high fantasy settings,
and again there and a number of isekai sub genres. a comedy Western isn't going to appeal to the same audience as a traditional tragic Western, but they're both considered Westerns

Just marathon the first season of the shows you didn't watch.

that's more of a legal trademark thing. if it tastes like Kentucky bourbon, people will just call it Kentucky bourbon. more commonly, people just call sparkling white wine Champagne. the source hardly matters to the end customer.

then maybe we should call isekai that don't take place in another world but still hold on to it's tropes something similar
native isekai

But I don't wanna have to watch old shit.

Re:Zero and mr Skeltal

Westerns are defined by the tropes and situation of the nonexistent American West (as none of the shit you see in cowboy movies would've fucking happened in towns, cowboys were people hired to stop cattle ranchers and didn't use revolvers as those were ineffective at the ranges cattle rustlers worked at)

Isekai is defined by...what? High fantasy? It's defined by the concept of a different world. You used wikipedia before, wikipedia says the main defining feature of isekai is the concept of a different world and that you're actively moved from one to the other, hence 'another/different' world, and it often also includes the quest to return to your original world. It's not even a recent phenomenon.

>The concept has origins in ancient Japanese literature, particularly the story of Urashima Tarō, a widely known folk tale in Japan that isekai writers grew up with. It is about the fisherman Urashima Tarō, who saves a turtle and is brought to a wondrous undersea kingdom, but the story later has a twist (after spending what he believed to be 4-5 days there, he returns to his home village only to find himself 300 years in the future). Several later examples from English literature include the novel Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (1865), as well as A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court (1889), The Wonderful Wizard of Oz (1900), Peter Pan (1902) and The Chronicles of Narnia (1950).[8]

>people just call sparkling white wine Champagne. the source hardly matters to the end customer

You have be over 18 to post here.

What are said tropes? You can't list any that aren't taken by another genre and you can't list any that wouldn't exclude accepted isekai from being isekai. It's litrpg fantasy.

Note that I prefaced bourbon with Kentucky. Bourbons in general are geographically restricted to the US, and can only legally be sold as such if they are produced in the US. A Kentucky bourbon, given the additional classifier, would logically be restricted to Kentucky since there is already a category for the rest of the US.

Though even for the full set of bourbons, the vast majority is made in Kentucky, and the remaining 5% is typically branded under other categories like "Tennessee Whiskey" in the case of Jack Daniels.

I have a question for you overlordfags, do you like shield hero?

Attached: 1524776435276.png (96x133, 4K)

The only dilemma is whether or not Subaru’s restart moves him to an alternative timeline (in which case his power 100% works vs Ainz) or if there’s only one timeline and Subaru moves EVERYTHING back to his particular checkpoint (in which case it probably still works, just not definitely).

Ainz has dealt with people who can stop or slow time, but never anybody who can actually reverse it. The former is simply time dilation which is a phenomenon which very much exists in the real world, while time reversal is a completely fictional concept, so it’s unlikely even Ainz would be able to counter it.

I mean it also matters how, exactly, Subaru's reset triggers. Does he need to have zero HP or does he need the Dead condition, etc.
Also, there's specific defenses against time reversal in high level or epic D&D. No idea if Ainz has it since it seems difficult to implement in an VRMMO.

>Motherfucking Yea Forums
>Vast of Yea Forums don't watched the 4 isekai of the anime

Truly pathetic

Trademarks are national and always have been unless you sign a convention otherwise, dipshit. Copyright is the international one. Fucking Canadians can use American trademarks without consequence, and vice versa, unless you get it registered in the other state. Blame your own country for not bothering to try to register it until it was too late.

I think for the sake of entertainment Subaru’s power would work vs Ainz, because even that wouldn’t be completely impossible for him to counter. Ainz would merely need to figure out on his own picking up on hints that Subaru has the power to move back in time upon death, and then subdue him instead of killing him.

Sasuga Ainz-sama!

My country doesn't make anything worth noting when it comes to food and isn't part of the EU anyway

It feels like that eventually Subaru will stumble into a situation where Ainz doesn't want to kill him at that moment in time and he'll just get Imprisoned under the earth or something
Or he'll get caught by Demiurge instead of Ainz and it's to the farms

Which mc do you guys think is gonna get cucked by fanart/doujin authors first? My bet is on Kazuma since Darkness is guaranteed to go after someone from the Overlord cast. Might be Emilia though since a lot of rezero fags don't like Subaru's obsession with her.

Attached: 1533580371342.png (338x386, 341K)

Arguably Albedo's been cucked from her creation since Ainz doesn't have a prick and will instead talk about the virtues of hot springs with one of the other protagonists

Probably. 3-letter agencies having pseudo-legislative power in the first place is controversial. Though nothing stops you guys from placing labeling requirements on our company in order to sell. Hell, some intentionally rebrand just to use the EU's laws to their benefit. The creation of "Tennessee Whiskey" was done explicitly for the sake of being able to geographically isolate the particular class of whiskeys for NAFTA, and I believe the category is also trademarked in the EU.

The short answer is no user.

No I just mean because super soft brie and camembert is aged for like, a week, but your FDA said something like 'durr it's gotta be 60 days or DE BACTERIA!!!'
So you're stuck with either hard-ass camembert or flavourless pasterized camembert

But the key point in that scenario you've presented is, in fact, the fact that the protagonist got isekai'd and thus has out-of-context knowledge, looks for nonexistent and nonsensical things, and so on. It doesn't work without isekai, the premise refuses to hold.

>practicall the same story
That's simply shoddy writing. You've specifically picked one subgenre that happens to be popular these days and extrapolate that therefore it's a characteristic of the isekai genre to have an overpowered MC with modern values and ahead-of-time thinking. By this fucking logic Romance of the Three Kingdoms was a native isekai novel (written in the Ming Era, Liu Bei has many of the classical virtues as they were envisioned in that period) which is clear fucking horseshit.

you think that the 1950s only created a handful of Westerns and they were all so great that they got the entire genre named after them? there are a fucking ton a trash Westerns that shamelessly copied experimented with the formula that turned a unique film into it's own category.
there's a reason zombie movies are in a genre of their own but werewolf movies aren't. it's in part a matter of numbers.

seems like your only objection is that since you don't know about the plethora of isekai that make up the genre they must not exist for everybody else.

Like what? You can't follow the formula of an outsider providing out of context knowledge from a society familiar to the reader (which, after all, IS the central conceit of modern isekai) without said outsider being from the society. Give me ten examples - hell just give me one. Danmachi gets tossed around a lot, but it's a fantasy litRPG harem, those are the main genres involved. involved. Goblin Slayer is a clean fantasy with vancian casting (which is not game-like, as Jack Vance actually inspired the father of RPGs - D&D - in the first place) despite obvious riffs from a D&D setting. Really, what are the examples you're on about? You can't say isekai is defined by being a fantasy or a litRPG because those already fucking exist.

The common point here is that the protagonists self-destruct often, overthink things, and the stories move almost in spite of their efforts. Slime would be totally out of place, it would make more sense to put him next to Shieldhero/Kumo/Sword or something

This will be 12 episodes of (chibi) Tanya carrying the entire show, isn't it?

More importantly Slime is shit

Not nearly as shit as overlord though. That and shield hero are the most bottom tier isekais.

what outside knowledge did Kazuma or Subaru contribute to the plot? most power fantasy isekai just dump their protagonist into an unknown land and never mention their former lives.
>You can't say isekai is defined by being a fantasy or a litRPG because those already fucking exist.
yes you can. genres are defined by tropes and themes, not setting. I keep bringing up Westerns but it's somehow not getting through your head.
there are also literal isekai that completely disregard the world transfer origin and read as strait fantasy. categorizing by setting alone is useless
>hell just give me one

>genres are defined by tropes and themes, not setting
And Fantasy/LitRPG already cover the 'themes' you're on about. Overpowered main characters are a single theme. Isekai is arguably not even a genre but a premise, but even when considerd a genre it is ALWAYS defined as predicated on the fact that you have to cross worlds. That's the fucking definition.

>link
Well only nine chapters are out but then by your own admittance the only reason it's classified as isekai is because it actually fucking is in an isekai, just not one you're told about upfront. If it wasn't then you'd end up with Goblin Slayer (recognizeably an overpowered MC who's underestimated by his peers but btfos them all and also gains retarded cheats and a harem out of nowhere), but which also lacks the isekai tag anywhere. Because, you know, it isn't one. Summarize the tropes and conventions and make sure to keep them separate from any other genre and then I'm going to reduce it to absurdity by raising counterexamples.

Aqua arguably can't raise anyone who's been memed away by a high level death effect since those bypass judgement by gods outright. Even if that doesn't work, soul trap does.

I still can't believe that they managed to make a skeleton look swole, it's even better knowing that he uses a halberd later.

>Did you forget the whole shtick where he repeatedly gains and loses money by inventing things?
that's played more of a joke than a plot point. there's are many more isekai that don't involve past lives at all and non isekai that copy them. but I assume you only watched anime mentioned in the quartet and haven't even heard of the hundreds of isekai manga out there.
>Isekai is arguably not even a genre but a premise
both fantasy and litRPG are premises too with the caveat that when people say fantasy they're using it as a short hand for Tolkien-fantasy. Harry Potter is fantasy but people don't group it with Lord of the Rings.
>Well only nine chapters are out but then by your own admittance the only reason it's classified as isekai is because it actually fucking is in an isekai,
50 chapters into the novel. and it leads you into believing it's an isekai only to flip it and say it's definitely it's NOT an isekai. the guy just has a power that gives him knowledge of all weapons or something.
>That's the fucking definition

>both fantasy and litRPG are premises too with the caveat that when people say fantasy they're using it as a short hand for Tolkien-fantasy. Harry Potter is fantasy but people don't group it with Lord of the Rings.
That's totally wrong though. A lot of fantasy is Lord of the Rings but nowhere near all of it. Witcher is low fantasy. Sanderson is high epic fantasy. Warhammer is high fantasy. GRRM is high fantasy. Harry Potter is low fantasy. Conan is high fantasy of the sword and sorcery subgenre. They might use it as a shorthand for high fantasy but that still isn't accurate and also isn't restricted to Tolkien/

>and it leads you into believing it's an isekai only to flip it and say it's definitely it's NOT an isekai
In which case clearly it's not an isekai, as you've just said, and the reason the tag exists is because the manga hasn't gotten there yet.

>that's not how genres work
You are still dodging my demands to define the genre because you know you fucking can't without stepping on the toes of Fantasy and LitRPG.

yeah, fantasy is split into a bunch of sub genres that appeal to different people, have different conventions, but still 'step on each other's toes'. in the same way isekai can have various sub genres
>In which case clearly it's not an isekai
that fact that you're flipping so easily should highlight how absurd it is to categorize fiction by setting. you wouldn't re categorize a fantasy novel if it said on the last page that it was super high tech science all along.
>define the genre because you know you fucking can't without stepping on the toes of Fantasy and LitRPG.
look at the definition for a Western, it isn't a clear cut definition, it's a grab bag of different tropes and conventions. I even mentioned a few of them earlier.

There are non guro stuff out there. Apply yourself.

You keep trying to jump back to 'western' but I haven't watched and don't plan to watch a single one. The concept of the cowboy as a character (not as a job, therefore not restricted to the American West) disgusts me on a fundamental level. Now fucking define the genre.

>that fact that you're flipping so easily should highlight how absurd it is to categorize fiction by setting
It's not setting. It's premise. If the premise of a story is 'starcrossed lovers who are denied by fate' that's literally all you need to know to go 'yes, romantic tragedy'. If the premise of a story is 'dark god must be destroyed by daring heroes on a quest' you can say 'yes, epic adventure fantasy'. If the premise is 'man from one world is dropped into another with limited resources; can he survive?' that's all you need to say, 'yes, isekai survival story'. What the setting is doesn't matter, which undermines your point more than mine - whether or not there's recognizeable fantasy, whether the main character was ever human at all, whether he has anything to do with modern morality or so on, this doesn't matter, it's irrelevant to the genre.

>retarded anime-only detected
The only reason Shalltear was so hard to revive is because she is a level 100 NPC. Ainz has spells that can revive garbage like Kazuma en masses for free.

Guild NPCs cost gold to revive, but Ainz has actual revival spells too.

>You keep trying to jump back to 'western' but I haven't watched and don't plan to watch a single one
oh wow, I don't know even know what to say to this. not even Cowboy Bebop? no wonder you're so retarded, you live under a god damn rock and have no understanding of the world that isn't related to trashy anime. get out of your mom's basement and experience the world, "you can't explain color to the blind person" or something to that effect.

>if you're not an American with American tastes you're blind

They never do that

Fuck off, bonelet.

I mean were discussing Japanese anime so I don't see how you're pinning me to a Western bubble. it's just sad that you're so autistic and stubborn not even experience film outside of anime.
if you want to talk about genres at least watch and read other genres. I don't know why you'd want to debate something from a point of ignorance. Wikipedia has an extensive page on genre studies and the stuff like the French New Wave pushed what it means to be a genre.

Do you fucking think the only films are westerns? Star Trek doesn't count? Seventh Seal is a western? Are you on acid right now? Fucking define the genre and stop evading like an lunatic. The thread is about to die though so carry on being a fucking idiot mocked by literally everyone in threads. I never did see why they treated you as cancer, but now oh how I have learned.
