though i think there's a solid argument to be made for most of these being conservative, even if not in ways this guy would necessarily recognize as such. name a series on this and i could find a legitimate, not a bit reason it's reactionary. that goes triple for one piece

most shows in japanese anime are placed in high school for many reasons, some of the major ones is that in japanese culture, highschoolers tend to have the most "freedom" (that is time is less occupied), an event that most people go through (thus being broadly more relatable vs a college show, where not everyone goes to college) and anime is generally targeted for younger folk.
