Archived threads in /a/ - Anime & Manga - 5989. page

I'm drunk and bored, so let's play a game /a/.

Here's the rules: Think of your favorite anime or manga. It can be new, old, and consist if you want of a very specific period of a show (like the first season of an anime, ignoring later stuff, or a specific period in a manga). Now, within that same genre think up the absolute inverse of it. Not something shitty necessarily, but something that approaches the same kind of material from a totally different angle, or has a totally opposite theme or message to convey. Let's see if anyone else can mirror your exact thought processes and guess at your favorite.

OP image isn't my personal favorite but is meant to be low hanging fruit to get us going. 'll post my actual clue for my favorite later on if this thread gets any momentum to it.

You know, /a/, I was thinking.

Don't you think "anime" as a word sounds pretty lame? I mean we're all pretty cool dudes here and I think we should use a word more befitting of our stature. I say that we stop calling it "anime" and just start calling it "Japanese shows," since that sounds much better.

Other than Toonami didn't sci-fi broadcast some anime shows/movies?

Yup, SciFi did air some shows but I wasn't aware of it. I only vaguely recall watching a few minutes of this show:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o5yF2GhsdKg#t=3090

As a teen, watching a cute little girl like that get tortured gave me a boner for some reason. That's all I remember from that show.

She was spoiled due to being the granddaughter of the literal absolute ruler of her entire world.

She got a lot better after she stopped being pampered and had to work to survive.

The entire journey was one where she was forced to confront both herself and her dependence on others.

Iggy basically took care of everything for her, after he was gone and she was outside of the planned society of the dome she had to come to terms with reality and shed her old pampered ways.
