I can be quite lazy at times, even when trying to finish an anime, lol. Also thanks for the well wishes as well, i been slowly recover from some stuff that happen in July and August.
But anyways, sorry that i assume you were in your late 20s, since your profile didn't show the year you were born. I just automatedly assume that you were munch older than me. But that seems not to be the case, since you were younger than i thought, but your still older than me anyways, hahaha!
I have 6 siblings, two older (half) Gen X's and 4 zoomers siblings. I'm oldest of my zoomer siblings, with the youngest having just turn 12 a day before your birthday. Also the reason why i have Gen X siblings, is because my father is a baby boomer who was married till they were divorced somewhere around the 80s or 90s, i think. one of my Gen X sibling has two kids around my age. So you be surprised to know that despite my age, I'm already an uncle, lol.
I did grew up a lot of things such as games and shows through out the 2010s, especially my early experience with the internet. I had a lot of Wii games, mostly because i picked games that had interesting box arts at least to young me. hence why i had lot Wii games compare to the 4 Wii U games i had, lol.
As for my thoughts on Texhnolyze, I can say it's pretty damn dark for sure, and i love it. It's definitely a stark contrast to Haibane and maybe even Lain too, it does feel way more dark than Lain at least in my opinion. I started watching Texh after finished FullMetal Alchemist (2003), it was a dark show, but it does some light hearted moments. So after i finished FMA, i wanted to watch something more darker and man i got want i wanted. Another reason i wanted to watch it, was because i heard that this show deals with transhumanism, since i do like the transhumanism philosophically. I personally believe that as long as humanity doesn't nuke itself, we as a species we'll eventually evolve into become more machine than organic. Although the one's that don't become cyborgs (normal humans) would go extinct. So i guess either way humanity would go extinct, just the latter is the better outcome.
Beside that i'm still looking forward to seeing more of it. Like Lain and Hanibane before it, it is pretty unquie, especially how there was very little dialoged in the first episode and i'm curious as to where the story is heading. How also something a bit funny about FMA is that one of the protagonists had lost his right arm and left leg, which were replace with an robotic one (Plus a dead mom). Now i'm watching show where the mc lost his right arm and left leg, and even a dead mom too. It's funny that i just realize that now, haha😅!
Now for the part i was waiting for. My fanfic idea, and my fanfic idea is an Elfen Lied/Gundam Iron Blooded Orphans cross. Now i'm aware that you haven't seen either of those shows yet, But i'll try my best to explained, without spoiling anything. The idea was based on an Code Geass/Elfen Lied fanfic i red called Galton's Children (which is pretty good) and while reading it, i thought to myself ''want other mecha anime would fit with Elfen Lied?''. So i started brainstorming and one of the first things that come up in my brain was Evangelion. I think an Eva cross is probably the most obvious one, actually it was too obvious for my taste, so i immediately dump that idea. And after some more brainstorming i come thought of an Gundam Seed cross, because the two things they have in common is DISCRIMINATION and some pretty brutal deaths. altho Elfen Lied is more violent than Seed, if i was talking about the manga.
An interesting concept on paper, Buuuuut there were multiple holes in my story that i struggle to fixed. so i place the idea on hold for awhile. it was till recently when i was messing around with chatgpt, i realized that Ibo is actually the best fit for Elfen Lied. Now for a few things, one is that I haven't watched Ibo since 9th grade, so i can't come up with some story ideas yet till i eventually rewatch and it two the one idea i actually have is how would the Diclonius would fit in Ibo.
In Elfen Lied, Diclonius or Diclonii for short, are a new species of Hominin, that are born with catlike horns (also have pink hair and red eyes in the anime continuity) and telekinetic powers called vectors which are basically invisible hands that can slice a human like butter. They're a species that are often at odds against humans. However the main reason why they're a threat to humans is because their vectors carry an virus that affects the male sperms, causing an impregnate human giving birth to a Diclonii that soon kill their parents after they develop they're vectors and spread the virus to other humans, until all of mankind is extinct. Due to this, many characters see the Diclonii as nothing more than animals that are better after dead, playing the trope that Humans are real monsters.
A new species of humans suddenly appear isn't that new to Gundam anyway (Newtypes, Coordinator, Innovators, etc.), However ibo is one of the few timelines that doesn't featuring any evolve humans at all. So putting Diclonius in ibo makes it all more interesting. I decided to placed all Diclonius on Mars, since Mars in ibo is the equivalent of a 3rd world cournty and the fact that Mars isn't exactly the ''best'' environment for children to grow up in. Now what makes ibo special from all the other Gundam series is the fact that's one of most dystopia setting in any Gundam series. Human trafficking such as child soldiers is normalized (especially in Mars), Ruled by a corrupted police state government, heavy discrimination towards Non Earth born people, and those are few things i could name. Ibo is consider as one of darkest Gundam series alongside with Zeta Gundam. Oh, and also that ibo does have a lot of medieval aesthesic, to the point i called it the Berserk of Gundam (there's literally a character that is just Guts in Space!). this also means, like Berserk, characters in ibo aren't exactly ''safe''.
But anyways, Horned children's with psychic powers suddenly popping up in Mars, will grab the attention of Gjarllahorn (ibo ver of the Titans) and like they're Titans counterpart who use Newtypes as weapons. Gjarllahorn will likely use Diclonius as super soldiers for some ''special ops'' despite that majority of them are children! truly a dark setting, indeed.
While the Diclonii are pretty damn aggressive to humans, it's mostly the result of human cruelty. to be looked down as animals, treated differently from humans as monsters, fearing them as demons, and treating them as lab rats is what would develop an intense hatred towards humans. they only place they could truly live and have happiness, is by replacing humanity with Diclonius. The reason why i brought this up, because it parallels with Orga goal's of moving towards ''our true place in the world''. A place where he, Mikazuki, and the other child soldiers would find place call home and treated each other equally as family. this goal is also what Lucy wanted in Elfen Lied, to live in a world where she wouldn't be discrimination and have a family that loved her. Both series has the theme of family, i think this is why i wanted to make this idea into a reality. A brutal and gory fanfic, yet a pretty emotional story where characters strive for a better future despite the harsh world they live in.
It does seems that my idea has lots of story potential, unfortunately the only downside is that my writing skills sucks ass lol. perhaps if i ever learn to become a good writer, than maybe one day, i'll share the story to you.
That's a lot of stuff i wrote (and it did took me a long time to finished), but watcha think of my idea, does it sound like it's worth the read?
Sorry that the late response tho (I was just lazy), But I'm glad that your doing better from being sick.
At least compared to the problems I'm dealing with, let's just say that real life isn't exactly very kind to me, especially when it comes to my childhood.
For a while, I was under the impression that you were in your late 20s, but since you said we're in college…does that mean your an (early) Gen Z!?
You know it's interesting that your watching Texhnolyze just as I started watching it yesterday. First Haibane Renmei and now Texhnolyze, it’s an interesting coincidence that we're watching almost around same time lol.
One more thing I want to ask, if I ever wrote a fanfic, would you read it?
Sorry that i left you hanging for so long, i was planning to reply earlier, but unfortunately July proof to be a very stressful time for me. So not a great time for me, but at least my birthday was pretty decent. i didn't had any gifts, since i didn't plan on getting gifts in the first place. I did had a Hershey cake, which wasn't the best cake i had tasted, but it did tatse good.
Well to be honest, the reason why Hamdou sounded familiar to me was because i had watched an other anime done also done by AIC. The Legend of Black Heaven which you may be familiar with this famous clip:
Hamdou seiyuu voiced the mc of the show Ouji Tanaka. I remember that after i had finished Black Heaven i decided to Now and there the week after. so the hole time i wonder why did Hamdou said like Ouji for some reason lol. side note the OP of Black Heaven is the most ''unanime'' op in the history of anime and i fucking love it!!!
Ah yes the Untied Nations, an organization that suck ass at doing it's job. You know for a peacekeeping organization that exist to prevent future wars, they would rather watch a building being on fire rather than putting out the fire. Rwandan Genocide while arguable one of worst things to happen in recent human history. in the end what's done was done, all we can do is to pray to those who lost there lives' and hope that they find peace in the afterlife. We can also hope that future generation will prevented the same catastrophe again.
As for how long Sara and the kids would survive after the events of the show? Hmmm that's actually a good question, the village they come lived was destroyed plus it's pretty far away. so going back there and rebuilding it is going to take a long ass time. Plus lack of food doesn't help either, But i firmly believe that they will live a long happy life. The anime is already depressing as it is, they at least should get a happy end from all the shit they went through.
I think it's possible that Abelia may had loved or was very close to him before he was insane. I mean Hamdou was likely a very different and Abelia may had been very loyal to him prior to events of the series. That's the only way i could think of, as to why she had to deal with a lunatic as him for so long.
Glad that you enjoyed Samumenco. a lot of people definelty didn't like the Guillotine Gorilla scene. when i first saw that, i was like ''What the fuck was that about'', tho while i was surprised, it did however made me way more invested. in fact i was so invested that i finished the anime in just two days. which is pretty rare for me to do lol. i loved everything about it especially that Gay part between Masayoshi and Gotou near the end of the series. Even thinking about it now, that shit was mad funny LMAO😂. i agree about Sawada being a major villain for some reason. Like after seeing super villains, aliens and the fucking Prime Minster himself. This kid who we seen a few times is the last Antagonist, Masayoshi has to face, is kinda of a let down. despite that i really did enjoyed Samumenco. Maybe i should rewatch it again in the near future.
i seen some images of Sayonara Zetsubou online, here and there. But i wasn't really that instered, till you menotied it had mecha references and i'm a little more intersed now. i might put it in my PTW list later. thanks for liking my picks and the Demi Fiend pfp i had for awhile. too bad i change it, but i do like the currelty profie pic more than the last one. The character name is Shirou Yusa from Dies Irae, a visual novel i'm curretly reading. Basically all you need to know about him is that he's one of most coolest and badass character i have ever see in my life. Plus the pfp does fit my despticon pretty well.
BTW if your looking some more Toku anime, i recommend Casshern Sins, it's the 2nd remake of an 70s anime Neo-Human Casshern, altho it's much darker in tone then the original. taking place in an post-apocalyptic earth we follow our mc Casshern a humanoid robot who not only learned he has amnesia, but he's responsible for spearing a plague known as Ruin that kills humans and robots alike, expect for Casshern who's immune to the Ruin, because of his immunity, many robots desperately want to devour Casshern so they can become immune to the ruin as well. it's an anime question that immortally and death now that robots have lost their immortally due to Ruin and how they deal with death itself. the anime does have a unique artstyle and pretty good animation (as expected of Madhouse), also i did saw a comment that once said this the SMT Nocturne of anime, i'm not sure if this is true or not since it has been awhile since i watch an walkthrough of SMT Nocturne. But the anime did gave more vibes to Digital Devil Saga 1 than Nocturne. the anime does have a similar atmoshpere and the hole devoring thing going on. Beside it is a great that watch i 100% recommend👍!!
no, i haven't seen the movie. In general i don't watch anime often nowdays. I want to watch the movie only because of the fucking incredible visuals. Seriously how this japanese mothrfckrs had so much style for steampunk / medieval fantasy shit in the 90's
That's an interesting take, actually. That's something definitely beyond the usual contemporary elements in the show upon a second thought. However, I haven't seen much from Lodoss War that it gives me the impetus to continue. In regards to those fantasy novels that you mentioned, what do you think are the general appeal of them? I'm quite intrigued on that front, tbh.
I always have soft spots for these late 80s and 90s OVAs. The exploration of different storytelling in these OVAs is always experimental and fun to watch. Lodoss War is no different in that aspect even if it entails trite storytelling and stereotypical characterizations and its setting.
Well he does seem to act like most standard shounen protagonists lol. I'm pretty sure that if any other boys were to take his place as the MC they likely would die since they don't have the plot armor that Shuu has (like bro just fell down a few meters to ground and got right back up like it's nothing lol). besides that i was pretty damn sad when Nabuca, Soon, Boo and Especliy LaLa-Ru died. LaLa-Ru was one shock me the most since i was not expected her to die, which was the main reason why i was speechless at the ending. also this basically my reaction when a character i like dies:
I didn't see the preview where everyone being happy unfortunately. perhaps a when i rewatch it in the future, i'll definitely see it. I do wonder if things be bit different had Nabuca gone with Shuu.
Hamdou VA 100% kills it (especily since when i was surprised that voiced the GOAT Taiga from GaoGaiGar!), and man while watching i actually wanted to nothing more than to beat the crap out of him every time he appeared. when he did died it was most satisfying anime death i have ever seen yet.
So it was inspired by the Rwandan Genocide huh. well i never really heard of it, until i look it up briefly. i can definitely see the inspired behind it. also did it had a movie based on it? *precess to type Rwandan Genocide movie, Oh there was! Hotel Rwanda and i completely forgot about that movie! i probably should watch that movie to learn more about the Genocide itself. You know if i was in charge of making an anime (or an fanfic i'm currently cooking in my head) i probably would take look at some war movies and historical war events to make the story more ''real''.
Do i think Sara should've went back with Shuu. Probably not since it was her decision to stay. Because Sara herself said something about her child and her experience being the result of staying in Hellywood or something like that (i probably should need to check again to see what she actually said). Beside if i was in Sara position (which i would not considering what she went through) i likely would make the decision as well. mostly because of who's going to take care of the kids. like if she did leave with Shuu then she basically just abandoned those kids to some strangers.
I'll be sure to put Green Legend Ran on my PTW list soon. Don't worry like anything that's grimdark no matter how old they are. plus i got like two intersent pack in my list: one being called Doomer Anime and the being The World is Hell: Hopeless Anime both feturing Now and Then, Here and There. i plan on complete those two has a part of my quest on watching dark anime's. Also something unrelated when you said ''Grimdark'' my brain imminently went ''Warhammer 40k refecene?''🤨 while this plays
