If you could change one thing about anime...

[Hollock]

I don't think you can just whitewash a whole subject from a form of media... except for the whole idea of the main character getting their ass kicked and then shoop da woop, hero pulls a power out of his ass and wins. I much prefer when they use strategies and ideas to win fights or overcome challenges and it isn't all

Spoiler

Speaking of anime, will someone please tell me when to start watching Full metal alchemist: brotherhood where the series starts changing from the orginal series. I'd really appreciate it, thanks.

If it were possible, I'd prefer it if anime were less like soap operas, cleaned up the story, finished their story arcs more often, and, as a result, ENDED. I'm looking at Inuyasha, Naruto, Bleach, and Galaxy Railways as one of the many primary offenders.

 

[The Geek Lord]

I would want all filler episodes cut out. Also, fights that last 5 episodes? Bull-fucking-shit!

This.

Also, any characters that utters anything similar to the words, "I'm not strong enough," more than once or twice are immediately killed off and everyone says, "Oh, good, the emo fuckbend is gone."

I'm assuming what I want to change applies to anime games as well.

HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATE

 

[Soviet Heavy]

Define "crap". Are you referring to the endless amounts of filler? Or are you saying that a show wouldn't be as good because it wasn't made for Japan?

Sorry replace crap with things or stuff or whatever.
And no what I meant to say was that making an anime specifically for a foreign market would have the developers changing a lot of things about anime to fit with the new audience.

Ah, thanks for clarifying. But if it is handled by the wrong people (ala 4Kids) then it might come out worse for measure.

BAN all english dubs and add bigger subtitles.

in mobile suit gundam 00 setsuna yells in english


I AM GUNDAM


and allujah says


wait what?


in the japenese version setsuna yells i am gundam


and in the japenese version allujah says what the hell did you just say?

see the difference.

Too be fair my response to "I AM GUNDAM" would be "wait wait?". Yelling out i am gundam is way stupider than ether response.

yes but being counetered by ''what the hell'' becasue yelling i am gundam is retarded. though the dialouge is much more differnet in the original japenese cartoon, i just though that up as an exapmle, showing how reatrded english dubs are, nevertheless, i want to ban all english dubs

It would be very narrow-minded and extreme to just ban every English dub out there just because of the few that you've seen that were bad. Would this world-wide English dub banning of yours include universal and critically acclaimed english dubs such the Cowboy Bebop dub?

i really hate the filler episodes that arent even filler
the episodes that have no conection to the plot and involve minor charachters that dont need to be developed
im looking at you Bleach, i dont care about Ichigos sister playing soccer
