DARKPLANT RISING Posted January 14, 2010 Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 Violence. Do you think violent anime is good?Use the Yugioh GX Yubel part and 5D'S Dark Signer part. I think it is. It gives thrill to the anime. Such as Kiryu being dead and that stuff. Drama as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, depending if it's used correctly. if it's just tasteless violence used for loll, not really...But if they were dismembered and fireworks come out?

Phantom Roxas Posted January 14, 2010 Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 No, anime can be good without violence, and in fact violence can ruin an anime if it didn't use it before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Great Unclean One: VK Posted January 14, 2010 Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 It kinda makes it better. Look at Higurashi, Umineko, and Okamikakushi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cin Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 Depends on what you like, I like a bit of fighting, but prefer it not to revolve around violence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Berserker- Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 I doesn't need violence, but I don't have a problem with it. I like it at certain level, but I cannot imagine what kind of sick person (and genius) made Elfen Lied... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 Violence is very much not needed to make an excellent series. Anyone who has read Liar Game knows that. Higurashi is good not because of its violence but because of its suspense. Violence only shows up once per arc to make the suspense more suspenseful by making it clear that something bad will definitely happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Merciful Idiot Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 Almost all my anime series faves have violence but 1 anime series with no violence has managed to amaze me. It's about bread and was twice in Animax. I can't remember the name of the anime anymore....I think the main character was called Kazuki, Kazama, or something like that...And his last name rimed with his first, I think. He listed his bread as Japan 1, Japan 2, blablabla and so on until I think Japan 58 and then he stopped naming them. And the bread place he worked at was I think called Pantasia. Oh and he had Solar Hands. And his best bread is Japan 44 (Which is cooked on petallite or whatever you call it) which literally sent people to heaven for a few minutes.....but only on the first bite. Second bite and so on doesn't work magic anymore. Can someone help me here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shatteredfox Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 you are thinking of yakitate!! Japan. Also I always wanted to try one of those bread ;-; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DARKPLANT RISING Posted January 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 Yes, that's very much Yakitate Japan, and the name's due to the fact that in Japan, Bread is called Pan. It's a sort of rhyme. I've read that, perhaps that is true. But I believe Higurashi would have not been that good if there was NO violence. Well, that.... it might be too much, but still...

Brushfire Posted January 17, 2010 Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 No' date=' anime can be good without violence, and in fact violence can ruin an anime if it didn't use it before.[/quote'] Definitely this. Also what Yin said, it depends what you like. I'm not expecting the main character of a Romance series to drop dead after being stabbed 175 times in the chest.

Arekku_Koro Posted January 17, 2010 Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 Over-pretentious symbolism. It works for Bakemonogatori. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marisa Kirisame-ze Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 Violence is only good if it fits. Like if the anime is set at a time of war, like Saikano. Or if it's just full of horror, like Higurashi. But if it's a rape fest like School Days... no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 But if it's a rape fest like School Days... no. The yandere ending is the only reason School Days is known as anything other than Generic Awful Harem Show #178. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cowsmacker Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 violence=good if used right. like afro samuri was full of win because violence in it was all the way threw and good. if your a bit messed up like me then you love violence in shows...but thats another story.

crimsonwendy Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 If violence is over exagerated it can be made funny, like Clannad's Tomoyo and croagunk from pokemon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 Let's just forget about shoujo entirely' date=' as well as sports-oriented and slice-of-life manga.[/quote'] Shoujo actually includes violence of some form with surprisingly high frequency. This can be anything from Fruits Basket having Kyo and Yuki fight to various straight-up romance series having the love interest save the heroine from some villain. Naturally, it isn't omnipresent, but it is present more often than one would intuitively suspect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've managed to cleanse that god-awful thing known as "Fruits Baskets" from my brain, so I can't remember if there were fights...I'll take your word on it. I must be reading the wrong shoujo then.
