While it may not be a splatterfest like Elfen Lied or whatever, it still contains plenty of violence and gratutious imagery.

DARKPLANT RISING Posted January 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 [quote name='Comrade Trollestia' timestamp='1326422772' post='5762069'] I don't see why everyone is so adamantly claiming that it doesn't, as if it defines whether or not it's a good show.[/quote] Okay, let me clear it up. I never said Higurashi ISN'T violent. It certainly is. My argument is that saying "Higurashi is a bad anime because it's violent", or "Higurashi is centered about violence" is just wrong. The violence in Higurashi isn't the motive, it's a tool used effectively to emphasize the characters' emotions of terror and paranonia. It doesn't make the anime any worse; in fact it makes it better in this case. So, I was being annoyed at these guys who said the above statements etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astro Dude Posted January 13, 2012 Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 And Darkplant was right on some aspects. Like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BcyueUVeuJ8 It was hilarious. Oh I'm sorry I doubted you Darkplant. Yet this is something I would rather watch in small doses. Very small doses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
