boring? - 08-29-2007, 02:12 AM

maybe I've just lost my mind but anime and manga are starting to get VERY boring to me...i seem to have lost something in translation or something. I see the picture, it makes me want to draw, not look at the next page, but make my own story. i have read so many stories now that in the first couplw of chapters i can tell if the stories lame or not. I don't care if it's shoujo,shounen,ecchi, or whatever they all seem the same, the reason why i stopped looking at american comics was that they were the same. I know that there is no new story out there...but damn, "cute" guys all the time (unless they're unnecessary), chornological order( like its a freakin epic), hot ass girls that I WISH JAPANESE PEOPLE LOOKED LIEK lol jk jk, love intrests that are always shy and almost never obnoxious (quite the opposite here, ones shy, the other isn't very), fight scenes with humans having human yet inhuman abilities, the first episode or first few scenes has the main character pulling a crazy "its morphing time" out his ass, the guy or girl gets stronger to protect (its never about effort, or rarely is about effort. its more about not using so much effort in the next battle so you get stronger so you don't need to), there are very few characters that actually inspire me (tohru, from that manga that escapes me right now but has kyo and shigeru and the animal zodiac thing (said that backwards but i hate going backwards), vash, from trigun, and yarong, from shaman warriors)...I like the art style, i like how the characters hardly ever have HUMONGOUS AMOUNTS OF MUSCLE!!!, they have some special abilities all the freakin time or something that makes them TOTALLY different than anyone else ion the world of the comic (HOW IS THAT ANY DIFFERENT THAN AMERICAN COMICS!!!!)...is everyone so similar that the story can be so detailed before the reader EVEN FREAKIN KNOWS THE LAST NAME OF THE FREAKIN MAIN CHARACTER!! that happened to me today i was reading a demon slaying thing (similar to strawberry, sword wielding guy with the humongous DNA built "reiastu", but with a sick " I LIKE KILLING!!" type of character, like zombie powder main character) and i knew the freakin thing when i saw the monster eat ole' girl and then the hero tries to be heroic and doesn't quite make it but someone rescues his ass (pulled that one out of my ass, read the first two pages)...if there is no new story how can anyone really be any different from you or me. If the story is the same, then are we individuals, or are we pieces to the whole? Are we mere ants that like or don't like each other but yet are so Fundamentally same that a story spews out of a totally different person and has some of the MOST SEEN CRAP!!!! when, where, how, did it get boring...how did manwha and manga get boring...the music is not to different either, same topics over and over and over, everybody loves everybody or nobody and someones got to die because i want you to leave me alone. angst, horror, love, betrayal, emotional destitution, destruction of one's perspective on life (my whole family was killed)... Ya knwo whats a good topic, the movie waking life...profoundly crazy art style, yet i LOVED IT!!! I looked at japan and i looked at canada and i see hardly a difference... nanimo...owarimasen
