Well, there is a reason why the Seven Deadly Sins are named. And yeah, Ms. Arakawa, the woman who made it, was inspired by a lot of stuff, Nazi Germany included.

That would probably explain why Major Armstrong likes to show his muscles.

Also, "She often portrays herself as a bespectacled cow."  What?!

I think it has to do something with where she's from, but idk.

I mean, it's only in the omakes and stuff.

FMA parodies stuff like that. They also incorporated the 7 deadly sins into the homunculus even though there was no reason for it  :D
It's based on Nazi Germany, yeah.  And there is a vague reason for the sins in the end.

Hi!


Just as a sidednote, while the OVA beginning does have its erotic appeal, I personally prefer the psychotic ending of the original series :) :) :)

Corrected for horrifying. Yeah, pretty much anything erotic about NGE ceases to be that way by the end.

I guess beauty lies in the eye of the beholder. And not everyone is restricted to finding just the standard things erotic
:) :) :)

But I guess we should not derail this thread by going into details about this, so if you have any questions, I think PMs would be the method of choice.

Oh, how about a mini-forum topic. Let's all name some of our favorite works by female Manga writers and/or artists.

Yess. Bokurano plot twist finally surprised me. This is one of the best shows I have ever seen. I guess no one has plot armor.
My god. What ridiculous aim.

Weapons of mass destruction... 1000 of them can immolate... 4 blocks? Kinda weaksauce nukes.
Realized how the Bokurano splash voiceover changed. Mind blown.

I am done with it now. I recommend this show to one and all.

Berserk is like... so good.
If there is more manga like this then I am floored.

And I'm only on volume 9.

There's plenty of berserk manga, but in my opinion it gets considerably worse at the point where:

Watching Axis Powers Hetalia now. This is hilarious and brilliant at the same time... but, how is each episode only 5 minutes? How do you present that on Tv?

They're web-only series ;)

I've watched every episode! A lot of Fun there.

It's like Happy Tree Friends or for a TV example Clone Wars.
