Killings in anime
The unwillingness for people to kill each other in animes (how about we call it Kenshin syndrome) makes for nothing but bullshit drama and ruining fight scenes. I was just watching the Tsubasa Chronicle OVAs, and when the awesome fight is coming to a close and 'good' Syoran can kill 'bad' Syoran, fucking Sakura lets out a pitiful scream and stops it, and instead of being fucking awesome, it becomes whiny and anti-climactic. I am not saying I want shitloads of deaths in an anime, but just stop it with the fucking always dramatically almost killing someone then being kept from doing so.

Isn't it ironic for you to think this if Trigun is one of your favorites?

This is why I prefer older series to the new anti-climactic bullshit of today.

The unwillingness to kill people is a characteristic that every shounen anime shares really. I share your views on this :O. Also, more like last episode of Claymore syndrome

The alliance... will die. As will your friends. Good, I can feel your anger. I am defenseless. Take your weapon. Strike me down with all of your hatred and your journey towards the dark side will be complete!DON'T KILL HIM SYAORANNNNNNNNNNNNN |

Things were different in the old days, that's for sure.
