The hole in journey to the center of the earth, the black hole in intersteller, etc
"Top" as in worst or "Top" as in most notable or "Top" as in most interesting?
I see
Replying to Gent #gent_. Tell me the plot of the boy and the heron right now
I think it may actually all be a dream since it has that dreamlike plot. Things happen and the boy just goes alomg with it like it makes perfect sense. Probably got knocked real hard by that rock. Anyway the plot is about grief and letting go, also herons are untrustworthy and pelicans are dangerous fascists.
I have only seen a couple of Ghibli movies and aside from the animation quality I don't get the appeal. Spiritied Away is full of scenes that serve no purpose other than to show off their animation.
Like they don't have a greater meaning to the plot
That's not a bad thing but I expect better considering the reviews
Ghibli is japanese disney
at least as far as non arguable this is alright animated films go
Actually I didn't understand the story at all the first time. Kids can enjoy them and not understand.
Think about all the innuendos that were slipped into kids shows back in the day. Did you get them?
I've understood every movie I've watched even as a kid
skill issue
be smarter
Not counting things before I was 3 because I cannot verify that!
I didn't just mean sexual ones. Also ones relating to death, drugs, etc.
I get that people read manga as escapism but I don't understand reading stories about people who have extreme advantages that use them to solve their problems.
It just feeds people's delusions that they can do or get or get away with anything
oh sorry, forgot to add "get anything". thanks
I mainly enjoy lighthearted comedies or realistic dramas
It's confirmed the writer is 14?
Replying to legorhin #jazardly I don't hate the overpowered main character trope if its not done lazily because it can be a variant of the skilled mentor archetype that acts as the protagonist (edited)
Overpowered main character can be done alright but I prefer if they're not. Main ways it's used not-badly is in a purely comedic sense (the fights aren't serious to begin with) or if the protagonist has good reason to hide/restrict their abilities. The protagonist having low self esteem needs to have justification for me.
no
Eminence is good
Wait, is that the one where the main character gets bullied a ton and decides to vent his frustration?
I remember an anime like that and dropped it before finishing the first ep
Guy spent his entire life wanting to be the main character of a power fantasy isekai type scenario
and plays the character when he gets it
Wait no I'm misremembering but I did drop Eminence before finishing the first episode
The main character just seemed too emo
He is playing a bit
Essentially, he is a dork trying to be edgy by what he thinks edgy is
I guess I didn't watch it enough to learn that
I thought the first episode was great
but it does not really explain the premise
