The shit I see in anime scares me. I couldn't imagine designing systems like that, I'd like to see their standards books. I assume it'd be different if I street viewed the place, but holy hell it's like they just throw shit up on the poles willy nilly.
You wouldnt know if you lived in America but in most of the world residential areas are filled with tons of cables and poles crisscrossing the streets. The image is just iconic of the streets of the neighborhood.
Yeah, and it's dangerous as fuck. We have clearances for a reasons.
it means Japan likes to easily repair their electric grid after an earthquake instead of digging them up and re burying them each time
Have you never been to a densely populated suburb in your life?
I design them for a living in NY, but I contracted for PG&E in San Diego. The triple circuit stuff on poles still makes me wary, but again, clearances make it relatively safe. The stuff that's animated doesn't seem safe.
dolls send spectres through them to spy on people
anno grew up in a place with lots of power lines
A place called Japan
Kids also look at power lines a lot, so a lot of people have pretty deep seated memories of power lines. It's like the deer bonk thing, a crow sound, or any other meme (using the literal definition here) like that. It's a trigger to instantly place you in a place or time that carries with it assumed context that the author doesn't have to convey.
I feel like this thread isn't complete without a mention of Denshinbashira Elemi no Koi - it's an anime where the main character IS a utility pole.
Do you have underground cables or something? there’s poles right across my house.
What’s the next step? some giant machine to send out signals to the entire country?

I have a recurring nightmare that Im late to get somewhere so I take my Cessna instead of my car, and right after takeoff theres just a Tokyo amount of power lines directly in front of me and I barely have enough power to climb over them in time, then theres more and more so Im stuck in slow flight at the edge of stalling just dodging wires. Dont know what the significance of this is.
America has lots of underground power. maybe it's really an asia thing but where I am right now we too have very messy exposed up in the air in the open power lines.
You can even hear the buzzing at nights on certain locations
japan is so comfy
underground cables are for fags and cuc.ks
American here and my town's full of power lines, I don't get what's supposed to be weird of them. Even seem to have downed wires every winter.
>Possible meaning
They deliver electricity from power stations to everywhere else.

Anime planning meeting:
>Well Eva had a lot of shots of power lines, and it was a massive success, so let's throw some of those in there too.

>farm land right next to the ocean
Wait what
denpa?
it's a bitch to dig up power lines after emergency (like earthquake) or serious issue in city
overhead lines might not look the best but are so much more functional for actual people to work on
You're either too retarded to see that was a joke or you take this powerline shit way too seriously. Yes, it can have meaning, but it's also a trend.
What's a deer bonk
The user meant to say "deer scare" or "Shishi Odoshi", it's a type of bamboo fixture with a little fountain that fills up with water then makes a "klonk" against a strategically-placed rock when it gets back to empty.
They use them in gardens to scare away hungry deer that are looking for plants to eat.
