Remove the word art from english dictionaries because it causes brain tumors whenever people try grouping together "oil-on-canvas torture scene of naked man", "morbidly obese stylized rouge the bat", "3D ""modern"" redesign of barney the dinosaur", "shitty mspaint smug frog" and "$100K red square painting" as all art

>Beyond anime specifically, what's the purpose of art, anon? Beyond an immediate cute/ero/badass reaction, or it's use as an asset in a greater piece, art is about being able to "read" the mind of another person through it.
the percentage of viewers actively thinking about artist intent is below 50% (´･ω･`)
For some reason, I get the idea that when people use the word "art", they usually (over 50% of the time) mean "I like how this picture looks". Whether that is how the word is "supposed" to be "used" is a discussion point for flame wars
