That was a mistake. (blinks)

Hallucinating again dear?

best anime ever.

Blech. It was so BORING. Nothing but heroes being awesome.

 

And awesomeness that makes no sense.

 

And people going "that's why it's so AWESOME" just makes me genuinely upset. Because I WANTED to like it, but with people yammering on about how cool the heroes are, I want to slaughter something.

Haha yeah it's not really your kind of story.. lol

Do you have to LAUGH at me (grinds teeth)

 

...sorry. really bad mood today. I can't find ANYTHING to watch.

Oh no I'm not laughing at you :P I just find it amusing that you picked up Gurren Lagann after your whole rant about heroes being too overpowered :)

I just think that if everyone in the universe likes something (hyperbole), there must be SOMETHING good about it.

I think you should just focus on the things that you like about a storyline, instead of looking for all the things that you don't like. I understand though that it can be difficult to switch that critic mode off when you are reading a book or watching a series.

But what I like are antagonists. The other stuff needs to be good too, but I can't just like a story for the main characters. I didn't like Simon and, god forbid, Kamina.

I remember Lordgenome being a cool villain though, until he of course becomes one of the heroes :P But yeah, the main characters can basically achieve ANYTHING with their will power.

I was loving the Anti-Spiral king. It just was getting on my nerves that their intelligent strategies were rendered moot purely due to will power.

 

They could at least give a reason, the anti-spirals were the guys who SPECIALIZED in beating the kind of power Simon was using.

 

It'd be like if Rand managed to Balefire the gholam because he really really wanted to.

What kind of things are you looking to watch? (I have seen a vast amount of anime haha)

Anime aside, what makes a compelling antagonist for you?

 

I want specifics, I'm about to start writing a chapter that introduces a somewhat morally ambiguous person who may or may not fall under the umbrella Antagonist.

Interesting.

 

Do they have an english accent?

Well, actually being dangerous for one. Being competent. Able to achieve their goals. If not charming then at least possessing some amount of dignity.

 

I'd prefer an antagonist to be smart rather than powerful though both isn't bad.

 

Generally I like the bad guy to be well intentioned or at least having sympathetic qualities.

 

Above all I want THEIR actions to give the hero a hard time. Not the protagonist screwing himself over half the time

Boy have I got a book for you...

 

Well. 4 Chapters of a book haha...

 

Ithi you aren't supposed to be reading this

I'm not.

 

:whistles:

Hmmm, you want a bloody anime... Might I suggest Death Note (In both English and Japanese) or the new series, Attack on Titan (Only in Japanese with english subtitles but free to watch on crunchyroll)\

 

Edit: Also forgot Elfen Lied (Both english and japanese)

I enjoyed the show the one time I watched it. Reminded me a bit of DBZ at times.
