Did you just write an entire paragraph about my rant? Having too much free time?
Oh the irony. @Sigmar-Unberogen using a discussion board to vent off with irrational takes and calling me out for calling out your BS not to mention the having too much free time defense (says the guy with 2k posts that also needs to die on this hill)

Of course I'm going to be the one to say this. Do you want an official letter from the author or a studio or something? Here's a hint: People define bad/lazy writing differently - I know, a shocker!
People are gonna call anything bad/lazy out of personal agenda, not out of rational thinking which your rant lacks of.
Sigmar-Unberogen said: Gonna stop you right there pal. Nobody asked for your lecture about realism when it comes to dealing with stress. It's like seriously discussing "why a guy suddenly tripped" in a horror movie. You can argue the guy was scared and genuinely tripped and got caught by whatever monster was chasing him. I'm gonna call it lazy-ass writing and argue the author purposefully tripped the character to have few survivors at the end. There can be no definitive answer in this discussion so don't pretend like your argument makes more sense than mine. It doesn't.
Nobody is going to ask about the plausability of a different scenario due to well stablished status quo being broken that leads to poor performance of professional hitmen out of shape not to mention both Rei and Kazuki were already in conflict long before by taking into their home the kid whose father they killed.
By making a statement that there is no definitive answer you're already forfeiting your previous statement of bad writing
Sigmar-Unberogen said: It always makes me chuckle how people like you ask for "book of rules". This is a rant. People judge things based on own opinions. I literally put a warning up there for smartasses like you to ignore my comment or to take it with a grain of salt, but I guess you couldn't resist the urge to sound smart anyways. Anyway, moving on, did you seriously compare this show with purposefully dark comedies like Kickass, Zombieland, or Shaun of the Dead??? Bruh...
A rant isn't some sort of "diplomatic immunity" card that allows you to just blurt out some outlandish statement without having a retort to point out your poor and flawed argument with a personal agenda.
The cherry on top is how you try to use a strawman to use as rebutal to cover up how comedies and dark comedies CAN and actually DO mix deaths in between of action comedy shows. Hey I don't even have name recent darker titles that do this, I can easily name Lupin III doing this for several seasons or even pull out Trigun out of the box and claim they did the same 25 years back, and that show was full on clown nose, puffy wig and huge shoes from day one. I also named last season's Akiba Maid, but you also conveniently ignored that part of my defense.
My point was to prove how out of touch you are regarding on how deaths have been in part of action/comedy shows for quite a while.

This show just killed off the beloved mother (only parent) of an innocent kid in cold blood. Just like that example I made about a guy tripping in horror movies, killing her off looked like a lazy-ass writing to me, made purposefully to get rid of the "obstacle" who took Miri away from the main duo and have them reunited again.
Funny that you use the word "beloved" mother, when the original idea was to portray her as a dead beat mother who abandoned her child (there goes down the drain the 20/20 vision of your "rant"). The writers already took the route of redeeming her by giving her a terminal disease and coming back to Miri. Her being killed by Ogino isn't something out of the blue, the whole show has been cemented on death from day one, started by Kazuki's fiance being colateral damage and Rei killing a traitor no behalf of his father's orders. Just because it looks lazy ass writing to you, doesn't stop me from making an objection on what it appears to be some really bad judgement that snowballed out because a show didn't specifically followed a set of rules that you obviously placed before hand (like your bogus argument of deaths not being in an equation of action comedy).
Sigmar-Unberogen said: Google the definition of a rant next time, if you're so oblivious. And another shocker, people can talk about something that hasn't yet happened too, if they want to.
I know the definition of a rant and like I said, it doesn't give you immunity to be called out (specially on a board of public access). Using your same argument I can also call you out on jumping the gun before even having the chance to watch the final episode and get a negative view preemtively (shocker isn't it?).
My point in this regard is calling out your "lazy and bad writing" argument as just a personal vent because the show didn't do things the way you wanted in your A,B,C, checklist. It's not really bad or lazy writing, it's more akin to calling out a drunk guy that's complaining that his beer doesn't taste like vodka. |
