Which anime plot would you change?

I think I'd want to change the death note ending, with either light or L dead, not introducing Near and Mello.
Also wished Hei didn't lose his powers during the 2nd season of DTB. Maybe then it would be good.

Uh-huh, it's easy to say you want a change. It's another matter entirely to draw up events that makes your plot somewhat better than the original. Oh yeah, why don't I say uh, I need to change plots just because it didn't become my cup of tea? I'd want to change the entire harem genre so there are none. Now wouldn't that be great? Damn... I was never a guy to post in wishywashy topics. :< If I did before, it's a good change of scenery.

^ lol dude chill im asking what plot you'd want to change, not give me a whole story to fix the plot. Of course its hard to draw up events, thats why we give credit to the creators of animes. What I mean is just to give an "idea" to what your plot would be on an anime you thought went wrong.

Some people always seem to have this misconception that I need to "chill", when I'm not really angry, albeit maybe a tiny bit vexed seeing these types of threads appearing all the time with its simplicity. I guess that serious face gives it some intimidation factor or something.

I'll have to agree. Death Note quickly turned into crap when the initial tension between Light and L dissipated... starting with that "second Kira" crap.

However, if you're really bored... go write a fanfic about it... where no one will read it.

Bleach- torture Orihime till she dies, but then revive her and torture her all over again

Death Note- no Near and Mello

CG- change all the characters especially the lead character to someone cold, heartless and will do anything to get what he wants. No emo-ness.

Slam Dunk- change the ending to make it continue as the manga did

definitely Death Note, which is arguably one of the best anime/manga until about half way through. I think they should have AT LEAST had light kill L directly instead of the whole I will manipulate the shinigami, it just felt incomplete and not what L deserved. Furthermore, the introduction of M and N into the plot in the manner which they were, gave the series a rushed feeling that was like too much shit sprayed out of too small an anus, leading to little more than a bloody mess. Furthermore, the mangas ending was better done than the anime, with light having a full realization of his impending death, yet trying to deny it; fully revealing his insanity to a point the anime failed to capture. I think with a better done ending, deathnote could have been truly the masterpiece it was deserving near the beginning.

I would change Code Geass R2, and have it begin with Lelouch finding a way to knock out Suzaku & spare him, explain to Kallen that what he did was to help tear down an oppressive government that denied him a normal happy life, and form a strategy to have all of the Britannian's with power over Area 11 retreat back to their homeland and reclaim Japan as the Black Knight's nation. The remaining 24 episodes will focus on the Black Knights gaining support from sympathizing rebel groups from other Britannia-controlled nations and China to overthrow Britannia and take out Charles. However, his ego gets ahead of him as he decides to control Britannia against the other countries as well as the Black Knights' desire to let anyone gain control of Britannia over a fear of an uprising, thus things go like in the original and

Kure-nai. THe little girl and the guy taking care of her would have run off to a foreign country until she was grown and then able to stand up against her family! (and maybe she'd have a husband and a kid or two, while she was at it- to try and deter her brother/clan from hiding her away and making her have them).

I'd like to back you up on the harem comment ^^;

P.S. I took your comment humorously...but a sense of truth too.

I'd like to see Mobile Suit Gundam Seed Destiny fixed*

Fixed in the sense of not catering so much to the outcries of hyperactive fanboys and girls, and actually incorperating well a better plot, character development, and well...I won't dive to all the little details I would change. But in general I'd like to see that series improved, if at all possible.

Aside from just having a million and one animes have proper endings (air gear, maburaho etc etc), If i could change one animes plot, it would be shuffle. Rather than him getting with one girl, he would move to heaven and have a harem for himself (because its allowed there). Much better ^^

I'd change the plot of Code Geass.

It would no longer be about taking over the world, but rather about a high school student (Lelouch) with a crush on his best friend (Spinzaku). Lelouch would be a closet homosexual, and to relieve his tension he would bang various girls in the school (of course, only because of his Geass eye) until he musters the courage to take on his true love without using his supernatural gift.

Also, C.C. would be addicted to Papa John's.

Gundam 0079:
Ditch Amuro and the White base, or relegate them to a supportive role, expand the Federation brass with some interesting characters, and then focus entirely on the One Year War through the perspective of the leaders in both factions, dipping into the various fronts and showing a varied picture of the conflict from the battle of Loum to the final Zeon surrender at A Boa Qu.

As for Code Geass, I'd either...
Make Lelouch actually smart rather than the idiot he was, keep the mechas from the start and never throw in any superüberimbaflyingbeamspammingprototypesofdoom, have character actually die when they are killed (Yes, thank you for that Shiro, now go back to your playpen), change the art so we don't get noodlepeople with constantly constipated expressions, keep any 12 year olds the fuck away from any mecha or weapon, cut the ridiculously contrived plottwists and the silly fanservice (That means all of the school shit) and keep the characters consistent.
or...
Make Lelouch and Spinzaku a gay couple, throw in even more imba mechas that transform and shoot rainbow beams, make Nunnaly a mahou shoujo, double the size of Kallen's breasts, make all explosions pink, throw in even more blatantly ridiculous twists and have the characters change sides and act out of character for o reason at all all the time (At least three times per episode). Also, make that cat talk and turn out to be a evil alien magician from an alternate future on a mission to collect panties.

Blood +,
Sci-fi elements would be treated in a more consistent way not in the nonchalant way that it was treated.
More episodes dedicated to Saya's and Diva's past and the others old Chyropterians. And it would devellop some political themes and themes around scientifical experment like it did in the beginning. And cold war and Vietnam war would be more involved by the story.
It would be shorter.
It would be darker and wouldn't have the ridiculous fights that it had.
Teletubbies would make their appearances somewhen in the story.

If I could change the plot of an anime I would have Ed & Al actually SERIOSLY searching for a way to bring their mother back, and fix themselves. Not this hokey contrived comedy b.s. they try to feed people as a serious story.

Every anime that has not followed correctly the manga storyline, such as Berserk, Claymore, Elfen Lied, Gantz etc. I would change the plot to make it follow it correctly.

I would introduce death to the heroes of Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood. Killing off characters like Hawkeye, Scar and Ling, so the fights won't feel so one sided.

Same goes with Bleach, but the dose of Death I would inject into this anime, would be much bigger than FMA:B.

I'd change juist about every harem anime to actually have conclusive endings, with extra episodes added as OVA's that could show what would have happened with the other girls had he went that route sort of thing. Kind of like Clannad with its Another World chapters but with the more ecchi ones well.

Dunno if that sounds like a silly idea but it would satisfy people who dont support the canon pairings.
