Nocturn3 said: Jans6ever said: In theory its a great concept, and from a filosofical standpoint i think its interesting, but i dont think it ever had any chance of working out in real life. In theory it's a great concept? So you find a society where everyone receives the same amount of money regardless of how much they studied and how much they worked to have their job? That's just straight up support for laziness and incompetence. Btw, under a communist government, the state controls practically everything. So if you want something your government disagrees with, you're f*****. I find so funny how everyone supports communist and lefties proclaiming they want equality, yet they fail to see that if someone studied and worked more than you, they deserve more than you. You're talking like under capitalism it's people who study and work a lot get paid well. While in practice it's the ideology that rich people get all the money. Also, I still do not get what I want under capitalism too. For an anime example, look at all those people crying anime doesn't have what they want. Nocturn3 said: Btw, the one who fucked up the plan and lost an empire was Gorbachev. Putin is doing exactly what he need to hold power. He already annexed a part of Ukraine and more might come. The guy who fucked it all up was Stalin. Do you know why? because after his rule, there was nobody left fit to rule, and the country was no longer capable of helping a less capable ruler run the country. |

| Well, I feel that we've gone too far off-topic. I just wanted to note that Communism isn't such an obviously bad idea. And neither is this topic. |
| The original post in this thread echoes a conversation I had with my father when I was a youngster and had just finished Stephen R. Donaldson's The Power that Preserves. The answer is the same then and now, I suppose. As creatures of limited existence, the concepts of death, risk of death, and sacrifice of life are among the few dramatic mechanisms we know how to use. This has parallels to conversations I have had on roleplaying in multiplayer games; how do you tell a compelling story in an environment where "death" has no consequence and the risk of death has no weight? |

Numerous slice-of-life and romance stories tell us that we can make compelling stories even when death in not on the table.

Besides romance, I'd take a look at Eclipse Phase. It's a setting where death is not a problem, but there are things worse than death to fight off, and there are things worth fighting for. |
| so you dislike death in a fictional setting but wish for war and death in the actual world........ok |
| Exactly, every anime should be like Tokyo Ghoul /s |

UknwWhu said: Vini310 said: And no, if you want to see everyone dying because "hurr durr tension", you failed as a critic, becuase you have a very limited vision and want everything to be realistic since you watch anime simply to see a 2.0 version of life! And I support resurrecion BECAUSE I DON'T WANT EVERYTHING TO BE REALISTIC! WHAT'S THE POINT OF WATCHING FICTION IF YOU IS SERACHINMG FOR RELAISM? You know what? For now on, I will pray for a World War III to happen, so we all can die, and that woulb be amazing, isn't? I would say your contradicting yourself, but you already knew that right? Your argument seems to be "I do not accept realism and deaths thus everyone should also" On what basis must I follow your opinion? People are free to think and believe what they want just like the fair-tale of Jesus which you believe in. Now, if only people recognized my right to think and believe what I want, instead of trying to shove their edgy opinions down my throat, we could have an agreement. But you'll never find a review that says "Centaur's Worries is for nice, peaceful people. Avoid it if you're looking for bloodshed". It's always "Centaur's worries is unrealistic shit! 6 episodes already, and nobody fucking died!". |
| This is the same as me making a thread talking about why I don't like sardines. Other people like sardines so much like this one I wouldn't even see the point of such a thread.I will now call you out on having shit taste because everything that happens in fiction is based in some way on an idealized or distorted version of our reality. |

| I'm not really sure where you're getting this - 'People want every single story to be realistic' or 'Death makes an anime more realistic' from. As from what I have seen, anime in general tends to be very unrealistic for the most part just based on the themes and genres associated with it let alone the actual story. 'YOU' watch anime for escapism, but someone else might not. They might want to enjoy a relatable story or they might watch it for some other reason. Anime as an entertainment medium already caters to your preference, so I don't really know why you're complaining. That would be like a person who likes Moe saying - 'Can the anime industry please stop with the excessive non-Moe anime'.

I feel like you have a very limited vision of what entertainment should be as you want it to cater to only your specific preferences, and bully anyone who would disagree with you and call them a failure. |

Well, I've seen a lot of people who like edgy grimdark anime say "can the anime industry please stop with the excessive Moe anime". And I perceive this thread in the context of numerous attacks like that. |
flannan said: Well, I've seen a lot of people who like edgy grimdark anime say "can the anime industry please stop with the excessive Moe anime". And I perceive this thread in the context of numerous attacks like that. The issue here with OP's statement and your comparison of it to edgelords not wanting Moe anime is that there's a big difference between wanting non-Moe anime and wanting realistic anime. I won't say that the people who want the industry to stop producing Moe anime are right, but I can understand their position as Moe is well received by the general anime loving populous and gets a ton of support from production companies as well due to that. So, whether the edgelords are right or wrong with their opinion is irrelevant as the base of their opinion stems from reality whereas I can't say the same for OP's statement. Whether OP is trolling or is trying to prove a point by making an absurd claim is not something I'm considering in this discussion. |
