    Best/Worst Cliches/Tropes in Anime

    Best/Worst Cliches/Tropes in Anime

    Dictionary.com is telling me that "chemistry" mean "the interaction of one personality with another", so maybe we just have different definitions of what the word means. If you write 2 characters whose personalities don't mesh together, it doesn't really matter if the animation makes it work if...

    Best/Worst Cliches/Tropes in Anime

    Best/Worst Cliches/Tropes in Anime

    The whole "friendship is everything" nonsense that most shonen anime feel the need to shove down the throats of the audience is pretty obnoxious. Most of the damn shows that do this don't even show me why in the hell their main characters are even friends. The formula for these shonen anime...

    ^ I don't really care for Avatar, but sure. Male voices for female characters are a wonderful way to rile up fanboys! < Has nothing new to watch next week (except Akibaranger) because the next episode of Fourze is getting delayed for a golf.

    ^ Has felt the pain of getting dumped on a forum. Look on the bright side, at least whoever rejected you didn't turn out to be already taken or nearly a decade younger than you. Hahaha FML.
