What are some manga/anime that delves into Buddhist themes and concepts? Like not something that's literally about Buddhism like "Buddha" from Osamu Tezuka, just a normal manga that subtly mentions it. Think of it like how Gnosticism is often used in many manga.
I searched and only found Land of the Illustrious and some say Shamo but didn't read it as of yet.

You're free to have your own opinion, bud.

Buddhism is a radical centrist religion where they claim both sides of every position is wrong and that everything is empty, so you would fit right in.

Do you  get off on being called a fag or a pathetic loser? Sorry anon I'm flattered but  I'm not really into guys I'm sure you'll find another Dom but today's not the day unless there's a misunderstanding.
Kouya ni Kemono Dokokosu
There's a fair amount of subtext and discussion about the line between man and beast and instinct as an analog for dharma. One of the main bad guys also has that zen thing going on where he effectively has superpowers because he skips thought and goes straight from intent to action. Fantastic art, lots of gory violence, native americans being dicks, and a cute monkey girl. What's not to like?

Sei Itoh seems to quite like Buddhist and Hindu themes in general for what he works on. Probably part of why he pairs well with Yumemakura Baku for adapting the latter's writings. Shame more of his work isn't in English, or in some cases, even fully available as easily accessible raws yet to even make that happen.

Katsumi vs Pickle arc for sure, it was a pleasant surprise to see him developing and Retsu match works really well as a build up into that fight

I'm not really sure where the rest of the anons from 4chan /a/ might've gone since the fall, but I figure somebody should at least keep up the posting of new chapter Raws, and here is as good a place as any.
So here's Chapter 154

That has practically nothing to do with it but it is a good warning of what not to do. being in Hollywood circles being number the first.
>Give into your lust and destroy your braincells with a random woman that you cannot trust instead of chasing a real relationship
The real reasoning was that it is fiction and is it's so absurd no one would take it seriously if not it would go completely over their head. Ignoring that fiction  most of the time is based on reality and often times is even worse. 

Deus ex which also unintentionally by a bug had the twin towers be gone MGS2  and it's talk of AI and other games that had to be changed because of timing.

Thread for mainly discussing the latest chapters, for the Elbaf Arc.

>Elbaf Arc
After decades of anticipation since Little Garden, we finally reached Elbaf, and the major is that the God Knights are invading.

>Kid's Defeat
Eustass Kid, a rival to Luffy, arrives at Elbaf intending to claim the final Road Poneglyph. However, he is utterly defeated by Shanks and his fleet, demonstrating the overwhelming power of the Red-Haired Pirates.

>Saul and the Ohara Survivors
Elbaf also reconnects with the mystery of Jaguar D. Saul, who survived the Ohara incident. Saul has been recovering in Elbaf, protected by the giants. His knowledge of the books saved from Ohara is likely critical to the final pieces of the Void Century puzzle.

>The Final Road Poneglyph’s Location:
Currently possessed by the "man with the burn scar"

>Elbaf’s Library and History:

There isn't a single good anime adaptation of a VN. As I am reading Muramasa, no matter how much I would like it to have an anime, I realize they are going to cut out all the inner monologue and narration and dumb it down to some shonenshit

>uro chokes on longer stories his best stuff is super short from experience
nips theories that he copied most of Muramasa from Dies Irae which is why in the first place he used a pen name. and btw the main plot of the VN particularly the Rokuhara shogunate, is taken from Taira clan tyranny over Japan, but the names switched to Ashikaga for some reason.
