Hey, you're a DBZ fan, too?!


I really like it when they interrupt the fights for introspective monologues. That shit is so cash.

 

[BakaSmurf]

Hmm... Well, what type of game is it? An RPG? A RTS? A MMORPG? Information regarding things like this would be really helpful in the decisions regarding characters, stories, etc...

Anyways, on a SERIOUS note I like when the action is pretty concise. If a fight starts it should end in one to three episodes. If not, it better be a hell of an interesting fight without all the bullshit.

As mentioned above, charging up forever and introspective monologues (props to SODAssault for that one!) are just really annoying. They disrupt the flow of things.

If you're going for a comedy I have to admit I'm not the hugest fan of Japanese comedy. Most of it is really pervy, and a lot of the time it's just crazy situations that are so unreasonable.

Like crash through a window
land in bath tub with naked woman
nose bleed

I just don't find it funny. Though there are other kinds of humor I like, but this post is getting a lot longer than I wanted it to.

On the Nose Bleeds that's only because they can't show an erection on screen, working around the censors and all that.

Well I wouldn't find it funny if it were an erection either.

No no it wasn't done for humour in the first place. but they needed a way to show their character was physically attracted without popping a boner.

THEN it mutated into a joke (that's not funny)

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
okay I get it, sorry!

Something Perfect Bluish would be rockin'. Something that just messes with your brain.

 

[cptjack42]

No "epic" scenes where the main character is about to die but doesn't. If a character is about to die, you kill him.

Agreed. I hate when that happens. Are writers so reluctant to kill off characters?

 

[Eric the Orange]

First i'd like to say proper spelling will make people take you much more seriously(sp). And if you're not sure how to spell somthing put a (sp) next to it so people at least know you tried.

Anyways, how much have you already done, what kind of anime is it. is it, Shoujo, Shonen, ect. Without knowing this it's kind of hard to make suggestions.

 

[Gamer137]

Keep it short. Nothing ruins a show more then making it longer then it needs to be, such as Naruto and the Dragonball series'. I recommend no more then thirty episodes. If you keep a series short, you also remove the chance of making too many poorly explained plot holes.

Minimize, if not remove, any fan service.

Proper pacing. Reveal plot points and develop characerization at proper times. Nothing ruins a fight more then three episodes of characterzation dialouge between the hero and the villian. Remember proper seperation of dialouge. Not too much at a time.

Other then that, can't really help.

 

[NinjaSkills]

Personally, I like action/comedy anime (Especially fight scenes). Don't interrupt the fights for back story bullshit (save that for like decades before the fight), don't make fights one-sided or have them take turns beating the crap out of each other. So basically don't be like Naruto

What are you, high?

I'm a huge UC Gundam fan, so basically you need to kill a lot of your key characters throughout the series.

EDIT:

Oda doesn't do it cause he doesn't want to garner fake sympathy by killing someone off. Also character death is something he himself hates.

But this really makes me laugh you wanna know why? Cause of 1 name.

Kill Em All Tomino.

Thats exactly what I'm talking about

I have no idea what you guys are talking about.

The dark themes. Anime many times crosses the line, and I really like that

Judging by your earlier comments, the anime you know is mostly shonen type anime. The ones with no set length where the characters never die and just continually become stronger throughout the series, but anime is so much more than those. Kill Em All Tomino is Yoshiyuki Tomino, the creator of Mobile Suit Gundam and Ideon, both of which are renowned for some pretty gruesome deaths of key characters in the series.

Oh. I just watched DBZ as a kid, I can't really stand long animes anymore lol. I don't even watch that many. Thanks for the clarification though, I appreciate it!
