XaetaCore@lemmy.xaetacore.netto Television@lemm.ee•I am sick of seeing the rich and powerful on my screen. Where are all the TV shows about normal people?English3·4 days agoWhen it comes to Japanese entertainment the majority of “Foreigner friendly” shows are Anime. But if that is not your cup of tea you have a few good game shows:
- KASSO: Wipeout! but with skateboards, Has alot of western skaters too
- EXIT!: Think of the SAW movies but with celebrities, Its really entertaining to watch them speed run death traps.
- Gaki no Tsukai ya Arahende!! (Comedians doing challenges and pulling pranks on eachother) When it comes to gameshows the Japanese are leagues ahead of the west, Ive seen some batshit insane stuff come from these game shows.
If you are into overly absurt gore(Non Anime):
- Grotesque: Literal torture porn
- Tokyo gore police: This is just so insanely over the top
Good movies that arent gore(Non Anime):
- Survive Style +5: Absolute cult classic very trippy movie, guy mentally turns into a pidgeon in the movie too very funny
- Ichi the Killer: A yakuza enforce and a wanna be hero fight, it has gore but in moderation, is a cult classic the guy who played the yakuza enforcer is a legend
- Fukushima Daiichi: A realistic movie replaying the events of the fukushima disaster, With the same actor that plays in Tokyo vice: This honestly is an amazing film as well, really takes you into the hopelessness of an natural disaster, Its the HBO Chernobyl of Japan basically
Must watch TV shows:
- Tokyo vice: A western journalist moves to japan to work for the top news paper in japan but gets tied up with the yakuza Honestly this has to be one of the best tv shows i have watched in a while, it is so well put together you have some good actors too like the guy from Fukuchima Daiichi movie. Really takes you into both worlds, The police, Yakuza and Sallary man
- Giri/Haji(Brittish show): But also has alot of scenes in Japan: Tokyo detective, travels to London in search of his brother, Yuto (Yōsuke Kubozuka), who was previously assumed to be dead. Yuto has been accused of murdering the nephew of a Yakuza member, which threatens to start a gang war in Tokyo
I could give you so many more good examples but i think such a wall of text would bore you and im not sure if this kind of stuff is your cup of tea 😅 But i hope this gives you some interesting material to look at c:

XaetaCore@lemmy.xaetacore.netto Television@lemm.ee•I am sick of seeing the rich and powerful on my screen. Where are all the TV shows about normal people?English22·5 days agoAm I honest opinion most things that come out of the United States are shit, so if you exclude the United States from your entertainment library you get left with some pretty good stuff. Just stop watching from sources that reliably produce bad content

XaetaCore@lemmy.xaetacore.netto Television@lemm.ee•I am sick of seeing the rich and powerful on my screen. Where are all the TV shows about normal people?English10·5 days agoJapan has an incredible wealth of entertainment in their TV shows. I highly reccomend KASSO! Its ninja warrior but with skating they have English guests and translations on their YT channel.
Usually non US shows and Movies are alot better imho. Another something you should not sleep on are UK TV shows. Like: The Responder a show about a first responder who is struggling with mental illness and the pressure of his work.
So broaden your horizon, The industry is not as bad as you think

XaetaCore@lemmy.xaetacore.netto Gaming@lemmy.zip•Borderlands 4 release date now set for September 12, plus a new trailer and deep dive are outEnglish3·6 days agoYou mean people leaving windows for Linux or people quitting Xbox? Regardless the less people use Windows the better in my opinion. There are so much better alternatives not limited to Linux.
Linux being my favorite.
