Legend Zero Posted March 9, 2011 Report Share Posted March 9, 2011 When you have 224 episodes you're bound to repeat yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nishi-chan Posted March 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2011 -points to Naruto- I believe the greatest repeated line in that anime is either, "Believe it!" or "I'm gonna be Hokage!" Besides that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Crouton Posted March 9, 2011 Report Share Posted March 9, 2011 This is why animes should only be 25-40 episodes. Anime characters don't have that much to talk about. Judging by the video focusing on Battle City, when the original series fell apart character-wise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legend Zero Posted March 9, 2011 Report Share Posted March 9, 2011 I think it has something to do with either awful translations, or un-translatable phrases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Well, "Dattebayo!", Naruto's catch-phrase in the Japanese anime is untranslatable, we just call it "Believe it!". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Cakey Posted March 10, 2011 Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 Basically all non-Yu-Gi-Oh! anime use flashbacks in place of repeated lines. A good 60-70% of the times a character is monologuing about how the fate of the world is at stake in teh 4kidz form, one of the following is happening in the original: Tea/Anzu is thinking about the [i]two Yugis[/i]. Yugi is getting the Pharaoh's advice on expressing his undying love and devotion to Tea/Anzu. True facts. Simple exclamations like that don't really count as "repeating" lines. If it did, every time Yusei said, "Orre no turn! Draw!" would be TV Tokyo being "uncreative". I mean, the suck at coming up with a story, and they're hit-and-miss with designing duels, but... EDIT: Also, DSS, u r rite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DARKPLANT RISING Posted March 10, 2011 Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 The word "repeat" is repeated many times in this thread. How creative people can become. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
