      Could be lots of downtime, meaning lots of time to watch anime? But I also think there’s way more weebs than people think and it’s mainly in dangerous jobs like military that people lose their inhibitions, stop giving a fuck and just start bonding over whatever they like. Anime is just weird enough to be kept hidden initially, but also harmless enough to admit to your buddies.

      Bombing civilians really does something to a person. We need to help them, not mock them.
