What do you think?
Some slash fanfiction?

Oddly enough... this happened in an episode.

Okay, finally finished the last bit of Eva Rebuild 1. This just keeps getting better as it goes on.

personally I wonder why it never crossed Jack's mind to just destroy Aku in the future and not erase everyone.

I've heard the reason Captain Planet villains were so utterly anti-environment was because they didn't want to alienate or offend anyone who's harming the planet for a more understandable or realistic reason. Certainly makes sense.

here's how the show ends
Might want to spoiler that, perhaps?

I don't know... Captain Planet is already so absolutely absurdly awsome as it is.

He actually has nothing to spoil there.  Don't worry, you'll be mad for a completely different reason.

General Public Question:


Should I expand the thread to include comic books? A very large number of cartoons are based off them, plus they have a lot of similarities anyway. Not sure how many people here are actually into them, though. (I myself have only read Watchmen and The Killing Joke)

My rule of thumb is don't care about it.

There arn't enough comic book lovers here to derail this thread and having a comic book based thread would just cause it to drop without discussion.

It was why before this I'd post about Western animation on the Anime thread and why people spoke about Manga, Visual novels, and even videogames on there (admittingly very visual novel-esk videogames but still an ordinary videogame)

Teeheeheehee.

Yeah comic books sound perfectly fine.

So I'm currently reading The Sandman (literally.  It's in my lap.  I'm reading it as I type these words).  Don't spoil it for me please.
I found a simply amazing moment in the second collection, where a character starts dreaming and the art turns so you're reading it sideways for a few pages, and then the voice that wakes her up is right-side-up again.  Very cool and effective way of inducing a sense of surrealism and dream.

Meh, added a line that comic books are allowed and encouraged here as well. Newspaper comics too, since there's a surprising number of cartoons based on those (garfield, peanuts, dilbert...) At this point the only western drawn media I'm excluding would probably be webcomics, heh.

Can worry about lack of focus problems if they arise. Doubt that'll be an issue~



EDIT: Oh, I did find a Batman: The Dark Knight Returns collection recently and thumbed through it. The art was nice but the whole thing reeked of cheese; The batmobile is a goddamn tank, Batman hops out of it to fight a mutant dude mano-mano in the mud... This is a highly respected series? Maybe it's just weird and silly when taken out of context; I didn't read it properly, after all.

Man, damn. That last episode of Korra was powerful. I got tense, and worried, and then teary.

And then it took a shit down my throat with Zuku exact voice on a different body. Super fucking jarring. (However, I'm pretty sure that, that person looks exactly what Zuku would look without the scar.)
