MushroomMagic you're so ignorant about comics it hurts. There are plenty of adult, mature and serious comics that aren't overflowing with "typical comic book BS".

Try V for Vendetta, Watchmen and Hellspawn.

Tons of manga/anime fantasy settings have sets of rules and limitations. Nen from Hunter x Hunter comes to mind.


Every anime or anime like video game I have seen always has stuff that seems like it was just pulled out of the creator's ass.  14 year old katana wielding school girls cutting in half 50 foot tall demons, evil "oni" spirits shaped like penguins, a sentient scythe or a banana wielding sword, 15 year old jailbait that's actually a 1000 year old vampire/demon.  Really, just make up anything and chances are it's been in Anime.

You seem to know an awful lot about anime for someone who claims to hate it so much. Do you perhaps have something to confess to us?

I watched the Watchmen movie and WOW did that movie suck.  I hated EVERY single character in the movie and felt none of them had even a single redeeming quality, and the movie was WAY too long.  It felt longer than watching all three of the LOTR extended cut movies back to back but that's probably because the LOTR movies were actually good.
V for Vendetta felt like it was trying too hard to push a social agenda on us.  It wasn't a bad movie but that scene with the lesbian lovers wasn't even trying to be subtle in it's attempt to draw a political parallel to the gay rights/marriage debacles in the USA.  It's not the politics itself I find offensive it's the fact that they're arrogant enough to think I should give a crap about their political views enough that I see it pointlessly inserted into the film.

Don't know what Hellspawn is?  You mean the Spawn movie released back in 1997?  Even as a 14 year old I thought the movie was dog ****.

Yes...

I confess that I went to see Spirited Away because I thought it would help me score with this new-age weeaboo, homeopathic practicing, Otaku dork girl.  I was 19 and pretty desperate at the time.  I still feel guilty about it to this day.

Watchmen as a movie is sh!t, we have been over this in the past of this thread.

The book is actually the best comic in all of the west.

And Spirited Away is a fun movie.

Spirited away is the anime equivalent to a liberal arts major at an art musem admiring some abstract, random BS art that nobody, not even he has any idea what it means yet everyone acts like it's so deep, moving and meaningful.

Unless the movie portrays the characters in Watchman COMPLETELY differently than how they were portrayed in the comic books then I would not even consider reading them.    I think it's possible to have a well written protagonist with moral ambiguity.  Geralt from the Witcher series is a great example but I literally only kept on watching Watchmen in hopes of seeing the eponymous characters DIE a horrible death, I despised EVERY single one of them.

No one acts like Spirited Away is deep, everyone acts like it's a fun movie.

Watchman is nothing but well written moral ambiguity. Here is the thing the movie is shell of what the book is. It didn't get anything right, the book is unfilmable.

Every obese Otaku male with a Kanji lower back tattoo tells me that Spirited Away is the Citizen Kane of our time.

There is nothing ambiguous about anything in Watchman.  Every single character in that movie is a completely WORTHLESS ASS HOLE who deserves to die!  There are no shades of grey anywhere.

Who gives a sh!t what your friends tell you?

You didn't understand the part when I said the book is unfilmable?

There is no way something as bad as the Watchman film could've stemmed from something good, it just can't be possible.

Huh?  I'm pretty sure the Dreamcast was a failure everywhere, not just in the UK.  Don't know too many people who regard it as a piece of **** though.
