  • Well, “good lighting” and “good color palette” are pretty subjective (as is many things related to art).

    To me, Perfect Blue by Satoshi Kon is a masterpiece work and has both a color palette and lighting perfectly fitting the theme and mood of the film. But I will guess that this type of film is not exactly what you mean.

    I bias towards older anime around the OVA boom, because I personally prefer the older art style over much of the newer anime. Especially for cyberpunk or medieval-fantasy style anime. So for me, I think of anime like:

    • Princess Mononoke (Mononoke Hime) and from Studio Ghibli
    • Record of Lodoss War (Lodoss tou Senki), the original 1991 OVA, the 90s TV serial was decent too
    • Berserk (Kenpuu Dinky Berserk), the 1997 series
    • El-Hazard (Shinpi no Sekai El-Hazard), the 1995 OVA
    • Slayers (Slayers), the 1995 TV series
    • Bastard!! (Bastard!! Ankoku no Hakaishin), the 1992 OVA
    • Angel’s Egg (Tenshi no Tamago), the 1985 OVA (only one episode)

    Obviously, these all have varying levels of quality due to various factors, usually directly related to Japan’s bubble economy and subsequent market crash in 1992. However, these are I think among the best and make a good use of color and lighting in all of them to create an enjoyable experience.

    If you have more details on what specifically you are looking for, I might know of somethines else maybe you haven’t considered.




  • Yes, that is the benefit of federation, but the downside is that if a user is forcibly removed from participation in a community they liked, it won’t really matter that they created a new one if they can’t tell the users in the old community to migrate. But this is talking about worst case scenarios where mods mass ban thousands of users indiscriminately, and not considering something more specific such as when a mod has a personal issue with a specific user and lets their personal feeling get in the way of their job as moderator.

    Speaking as a moderator (even though I don’t really do much on a low traffic community), if a mod bans specific users just because they don’t like those users, that’s an abuse of power. But that abuse of power will largely go unchecked because it isn’t big enough of a problem for most users to take issue with, usually.

    Banned users will typically either ban evade by creating alt accounts on different instances, or not participate in any Lemmy community other than some community focused on mod power abuse, for example.
