I don't wanna use the term "alpha" because it's an insult created by the "beta" audience of late nite animu. I don't wanna use the terms "manly" or "masculine." I mean... If a guy REALLY wanted to prove his masculinity without acting like a douche bag, he'd avoid speaking ill of eating sushi and driving a Toyota Prius.
We should call it what it SHOULD be called: Guys using their talents and doing what needs to be done and what's important for one's self and others. Once again, I'm wasting all this typing space and flinging around my opinions. But I atleast stand by them. (I also stand by the need for more adult anime to be created and released uncensored and dubbed in the West, but hey.)

Brave 10 is pretty awesome for a "protect the princess" / "sam-nin" (samurai and ninja) combo. I wish Saizo would bonk Isanami on the head more; just so the anime can prove to the world that "blithering spinelessness" can also be found in the female leads of "reverse harem animu." But hey.
