Desu the Blue Nerd Posted September 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 [color=#0000cd]You're forgetting animation. That's important too sometimes.[/color] [color=#0000cd]T[/color][color=#0000cd]he action made dog days a solid anime but I don't think it was a great anime. I love action too. This may sound odd from me but maybe romance. I love D.N.Angel for the pairing in it. It's a bit older and maybe the animation and art style isn't my favorite but that anime makes it so high up on my list because of the romance. Episode 18 being my favorite episode of it. Well of course just that can't get to the top. Angel Beats if you ask me was able to get it all right. It has the animation, style, some of the best action, comedy, and romance. Everything matters but I think an anime can not be great if it doesn't have great romance.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake the Sage Posted September 21, 2011 Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 No that is when the anime is Exceptionally Good and really how many animes are out there that you can consider "exceptionally good"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tentacruel Posted September 21, 2011 Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 I still don't understand the appeal of Lucy. It just shows that anime fans can justify almost anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake Posted September 21, 2011 Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 I find Lucy intriguing, in a similar dense to Hannibal Lecter. However, characters with appeal are ones like Jack Atlas, Aporia, Gaara, Ulquiorra, etc. There are more, but those four have a similar motif. Oh, and Itachi is another big one.

Jake the Sage Posted September 21, 2011 Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 Hey anti heroes are really cool. I mean Venom, he is evil and doesn't mind slaughtering people whenever he gets the urge. but he isn't above saving someone when it is the right thing. Plainly heroes are the sappy people who constantly go out of their way to help Villains are the selfish ass holes that don't give a care about murder Anti Heroes are a well balanced mix of the two.

Jake the Sage Posted September 21, 2011 Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 Well actually I am referring to Justice League recently. I personally cannot think of an anime character like that. In Justice League they had the heroes magically lobotomize certain villains and even some HEROES into forgetting their past/someone else's past/into a vegetative state. Now is it alright to do it to the villains, but what about the heroes? The point is where do you draw the line . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
