    You know, it’s kinda impressive how cool/progressive Japanese media can be in some cases while being the exact opposite in others.

    It's almost as if 100 million Japanese people have different opinions and preferences and create media that reflects those differences.

      Well, yeah I get that. But imo it feels like it works more there than in america. Like despite all the claims of "woke" media being a money pit, those movies are still making 10x the profit of "anti-woke" movies like that gina carrano film, even their worst productions make more than films like that one. But with japanese media, there's success for both types, likely among the same people. Maybe im over simplifying it, but i just thought it was an interesting (if flawed) observation on my part.
