I have no actual desire to flame Diana, so please replace this sentence with whatever vitriolic comments about her views you wish.Īlso, I know no one else wants it, but I would listen to an Evangelioncast.

Oh, and by the way, you don’t need no Hulu Plus to watch Attack on Titan. This was an overly ambitious project that barely holds together at the seams, but I love it for that. That aside, Attack on Titan is atypical in the animation department, both for the AMAZING action and camera, and for its “trust-us-this-will-be-finished-when-you-buy-the-Blu-rays” parts. And the best news? It’s not even the best show to come out in the last couple years (that would be Madoka Magica GO WATCH MADOKA MAGICA)Ī discussion of the animation process is definitely something I’m qualified to do, but Japanese animation does suffer both from lower revenues than American material, plus what seems to be a harrowing production process.

Last year the show that made waves was Sword Art Online, and that was…ugh…so it’s good to see a QUALITY show get popular. And again.Īttack on Titan is a fantastic show, and I’m really glad it’s become so popular. I’d just gotten over my addiction to Attack on Titan’s opening, now I’m listening to it all over again. Or are you going to deny that most of them don’t have high pitched voices, outrageously proportionated women, and huge eyes? But then again, could you really expect someone that has had such a distasteful experience with what little they’ve seen, to just go ahead and see MORE just to claim she knows more, and probably still dislike it all?Īlso, like I’ve said before, anime in general DO have tropes no matter the style, time period or genre. Yes, Diana does make a mistake for piling ALL anime together with the few shows she might have seen or have been familiar with. But you also can’t deny that most of the popular animes that the majority of American audiences would be familiar with DO share enough similarities to make valid generalizations at least concerning what they know so far.Īs I said before. I won’t deny that most of the anime I’ve seen is probably not representative of the whole. I wouldn’t consider Card Captor Sakura, Kanon, Hellsing, Trigun, Azumanga Daioh or Ruroni Kenshin to all share the same genre… Yet in all instance I do see common tropes still. Then you have the nemesis that then turns into a rival and then even into a valuable ally.Īgain, there are exceptions, but don’t try and deny that most shows, specially the mainstream ones, fall into these very similar and formulaic tropes. All of which, OF COURSE are super hot and fawn over him, even the usual one which acts like she hates him and don’t needs men but deep inside men is all she craves. Such as the protagonist that is either a badass behaving or masquerading as a klutz/Idiot, or the angry teenager that somehow is super awkward and shy around women. But there’s a lot that do tend to have very similar and potentially annoying tropes. Generalizing ALL anime as being terrible or the is of course wrong, since there’s many exceptions. Anime more than other types of television genres or shows, do tend to fall into a LOT of similar tropes. So all said, while that doesn’t bother me as much as DIANA, i definitely can understand why her and so many hate most anime 😛Īs someone that has seen at least 20 different anime shows, (I know that’s still not THAT many, but I’m pretty sure it’s more than enough to have gathered a general idea.) I will say that while yes, there is variety. And like all anime, is filled with squeaky voices, ansgty teenage drama, female objectification, and weird for the sake of weird. It sure is FUN to watch it mindlessly, and that’s fine, but try to even think about it a little, and it all then falls apart. That show is super loud, super baddass, super colorful and always cranked up to 11. Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagaan kinda epitomizes that for me. All those shows does have a lot of “cool” factor going for them, but when you actually start to analyze them, they are all kinda the same, and they are all kinda stupid. I actually got trough a LOT of bleach, but in hindsight, it really was just more of the same DBZ offered, just with more swords and shameless cleavage than DBZ.

Then as I started college, and after getting hooked back onto anime thanks to Full Metal Alchemist, I gave Bleach a spin, amongst others. But even then as a stupid 9 year old, after the Cell Saga, I started to realize the show was kinda just more of the same and kinda stupid, and by the time the Boo Saga had hit, i had moved on.

I admit that as a kid, i got sucker punched by DB, and then DBZ.

Eh, see, that’s where your mileage varies wildly.
