Changing anime (SPOILERS UP THE WAZOO)
 
What if you could change the storyline or any episode of your favorite anime cartoon what would you do or change?:p :biggrin:

David4516 Apr 4, 2006 03:52 PM

I'd change the plot of Inuyasha.

It was a cool anime at first, but it just didn't go anywhere. I would have killed off Naraku around episode 80 or so. You know, that part where Inuyasha and his half-brother (whos name I forget) are figthing him, and he (Naraku) freakin' escapes.

When I saw that I just thought "OMG, WTF?!?" Why can't they just kill the bad guy and move on with the story?

Inuyasha was perhaps the most disappointing anime I've ever seen. So much potential wasted... I can't believe I actually watched all 160+ episodes...

There are other things that I'd like to change in other animes/mangas, but this is the big one...

Box Lunch Apr 4, 2006 05:26 PM

I would say, I would've changed Gundam SEED Destiny by actually giving it a storyline that flowed, rather than it changing like hell every 10 or so episodes. The begging few eps were good, but then Fukuda just screwed it up by giving it somany re-caps and a rushed ending.

Lukage Apr 4, 2006 05:42 PM

I'd make Shinji more emo at the end of EVA....oh wait.

I'd have changed Cowboy Bebop, I guess. Way too many indications that it was impossible to make more.

Spoiler:
With them all being dead or gone....

Kimchi Apr 4, 2006 05:49 PM

I would changed Galazy Express 999 I guess... It was fantastic and all... but not enough "fire power"

Arkhangelsk Apr 4, 2006 08:50 PM

I would have changed the ending of Escaflowne...I'm not sure to what, exactly, but something better than what it was. And I wouldn't have
Spoiler:
had Hitomi go back to Earth.


And the end of X...yeah...I'm still waiting for the comic to finish up. I want to know the "real" ending.

aku Apr 4, 2006 09:00 PM

One thing that i would change about all anime, is i would make it frame for frame not this 3frame shit...YOU NEED MORE FRAMES FOR HIGH ACTION SHIT! yes, i want them to draw all 24 frames a second!

DJ SHADOW Apr 5, 2006 04:54 PM

That's what makes Escaflwone unforgettable. I would prefer the movie though.

If I want to change anime, I would change elfenlied storyline, since it exposes too much violent toward woman.

Forget that, make it follow like all 12 volumes of the manga! damnit! this show could have easly been much longer! at least a good 24 episode series...some of teh episodes seemed very rushed to me...

...they are all out, i have seen 18 in a Borders round here some where....not sure bout the Portugees releases though...to tell you the truth, i hated the acting in both the Movie and the TV series, in both laungueds, and well that turned me off to the whole thing...it wasnt the worset anime i have seen though, its just somthing i will never watch again...

SouthJag Apr 5, 2006 10:09 PM

I'd probably increase the series length of Twelve Kingdoms to allow them to explain the Taiki incident, and maybe even jump into the future to see how the kingdoms are developing and how the characters have changed.

elwe Apr 7, 2006 07:59 PM

I'd make the ending of Monster better. I'm not a big fan of the denouement anyways. ;) The series was excellent, and the last couple episodes were excellent, but the very last episode just sort of...blah-ed. If it were more memorable, that would have been nice. As to how it should have ended, I have no idea. :edgartpg:

It would have also been nice if Honey and Clover was a little longer. I'm not saying that it should stretch on for another five episodes, since it's such a wonderful series, but a little more would have been nice, especially since I was really sad to see that the series finished so soon.

i have a question :ashamed: what is Tweleve Kingdoms

Anime about a chick and 2 of her friends in Japan who gets drawn into a magical world where she pretty much becomes queen of one of the 12 nations. A top notch anime, in my opinion. A lot of good story development. Check it out.

Dan!! Apr 11, 2006 05:58 PM

I would double the number of Azumanga Daioh episodes, finish Hajime no Ippo, and make the ending of Black Cat more... just more?

In the first line, there's a link to a review both I and Rydia posted in the Anime and Manga Recommendations thread. Pics are there as well.

valiant Apr 11, 2006 11:19 PM

yeah the black cat anime really needs some "touching up" I think. I dunno, it felt kinda empty XD

Gechmir Apr 11, 2006 11:24 PM

I'd bring back Legend of Galactic Heroes ;__; Best, most epic anime series ever. I'm fucking disgusted that it never developed a sturdy American fanbase.

Listening to its Openings/Endings on a playlist. Probably some of the rarest damn anime CDs around -__- Still can't locate the Fourth Season Op/Ed. The worst and best of each, respectively.

Kei Ogura is 'da best male JPOP vocalist evar ;(

But the series went on for -- like -- 15 years. They had enough material for another 5-10 apparently. Hell, I just wish they'd translate the books for crying out loud. The novels are pieces of freaking art. They are incredibly well detailed and written. This guy could give Masamune Shirow lessons on in-depth story. Given, 80% of the series levitates around tactics in warfare xD

Oh. And Azumanga Daioh. I'd give it more seasons =d

PiccoloNamek Apr 11, 2006 11:47 PM

I'd change the backstory of Chobits... Freya didn't deserve such a terrible fate.

:(

WolfDemon Apr 12, 2006 03:49 PM

I'd make Full Metal Panic: Fumoffu a bit longer.

I'd say to put the second half of the game's story in Star Ocean EX, but I believe there's a Star Ocean EX2 now that's doing just that.

Fjordor Apr 12, 2006 03:51 PM

Does adding stuff count?
Because I want to see the rest of Battle Angel Alita in animation.

Really? I wouldn't, just because it's really nothing but filler in between the first and third seasons.

Accually, that takes place more along the lines of between the 1 and like 4 episode of the first season...before Sagara goes on another assignment...it takes place durring the first season, not after, its a spin-off not a sequal, hints why the new one is called FMP: The Second Rain...well at least if you go by the manga thats about where FMP:F goes....

Mucknuggle Apr 12, 2006 04:16 PM

I would have the Hajime no Ippo series continue to follow the manga. Same thing for Hikaru no Go. That's about all that I can think of at the moment.

Summonmaster Jun 25, 2006 06:55 PM

I would put more frames of action and coherence in Black Cat. I mean it was neat to watch at first, but then they skipped more and more parts as the episodes went along. Then they just started to throw every concept together right at the end, with some rather unsatisfactory random jumping around in the last episode.

As for Grenadier: Hohoemi No Senshi I would have put in less "breast-reloading", stretch the episodes out a bit, and make some of the elite senshi enemies harder to defeat, since every enemy was basically dealt with at the end of the episode. More like Trigun, but maybe not as long.

For The Law of Ueki, I would have taken some of the stupid episodes out (eg. sugar -> electricity, and hair -> drill), and added more inventive fight scenes, as well as more development for Rihou's character. I'd like to see more Rinko and Hideyoshi action as well, so basically less Ueki battles, despite creativity.

LOL I'm not in Portugal, I'm just Portuguese. I buy all my manga in English (although if anyone knows where I could get the Spanish/Portuguese release of Wataru Yoshizumi's Quartet Game shipped to the U.S. I would be most grateful).

Anywho, 18 is not the ending of X. It will probably end up 20-21 volumes for some mystical tarot-card connection b.s, but at the moment CLAMP has put both X and Legal Drug on hiatus. I had heard it was because of problems with their publisher, but I'm not sure about that. Either way, X/1999 hasn't truly ended.

MrSatan Jun 27, 2006 11:26 PM

i think i would probably change the death of Roy Focker in both Macross TV series and The Macross "Do you remember Love" Movie.
He was so awesome he deserved more.(At least in the movie he had a honorable death, but in the TV series, it just sux)

Conan-the-3rd Jun 29, 2006 03:10 AM

I would probably change seed desteny so Kira was dead in that raid...Lacus I'm fine with, but Kira was redicilious and pissed over his chracter development in Seed.

I would change Rozen Maiden Traumond ending to have it that Jun goes Beserker on Rozen for the whole incident and takes his magic from him.
Rozen was a screwer of pigs.

Negima. Kyoto arc.

MORE ACCURATE TO THE MANGA OKAY.

Or, you know, just not killing Asuna off completely out of nowhere with barely any explanation.

FatsDomino Jun 29, 2006 08:09 PM

At that point killing Asuna off was the only way to make the anime interesting again after the disaster that was the anime's portrayal of the Kyoto arc. I have no idea how they're going to save face for the OVA or if they'll completely dismiss the tv series.

I think I'll have to read the manga, I had a friend give me the anime but the entire series seemed to just tread water the whole way through. Then they killed Asuna for no reason at all I just lost any interest I had in the show.

Sin Ansem Jun 29, 2006 09:34 PM

^Ah the death of Asuna.

Spoiler:
It turned out the death wasn't random, but because she made a pactio with an uber demon when she was a wee lass (which doesn't make sense with the first episode with her never seeing magic unless she was forgetting it solely on trauma). Negi breaks teh rules and goes back in time to find said demon and meets icklefink daddykins. Nagi shows off a few demons but gets stabbed and disappears in the process, making lil'!Asuna angst and go make that pact, explaining her magic immunity. Unfortunately for the ten-year-old brat he left a paper trail and all of his class goes to find him. Uber demon sends mass of demons to take care of them but the class finds NEgi and THE ENTIRE DAMN CLASS pactios with him. They all kick demon ass until big daddy shows up. Negi fries it by using his staff and turning lil' Asuna into a death battery, owning it from the inside. It's too late to reverse the pact, but some genius machine from Chao allows her to absorb the energy from that pact with the world tree and nullify it, allowing Asuna to live.

Yeah, that's it.


About the only thing the Negima anime did right was Konoka/Setsuna, and even then they screwed up and neglected Setsuna's half-demon heritage. Assholes.

Okay, see that makes it a bit more understandable. I mean, I'm not god damn psychic people, seeing her keel over dead off a tree branch doesn't come across to me as her having made a pact with a demon.

Sin Ansem Jul 11, 2006 05:26 PM

The fact that you didn't stick around means they didn't do a good job of making one want to stick around to find out why.

elwe Jul 11, 2006 06:33 PM

I guess I'll have to take back my comment about Honey and Clover being a little too short, as a sequel just came out! Yay!

My thoughts exactly. When I realized the series was over at episode 45, I frantically Googled the series to verify that it did, in fact, end there.

While I found the beginning of the series to move a bit slow, I eventually really got into it, especially towards the end. The unanswered questions really bothered me, and more on the Taiki would have been great. I felt that, while the anime went over his past in detail, it didn't cover his present state too much. Shoyru's story also seemed to be a strange way to conclude the series, as much as I loved that guy.

I guess I'll be checking out the manga, then.



Something similar could be said about Gravitation. While it wasn't a bad anime, (in fact, I enjoyed it), there was potential for it to be better than what it actually was.
Spoiler:
With Yuki's past, I felt that it could have been revealed in a better way. After learning about it, I thought to myself, "Wait...that's it?" The execution screamed, "There. The secret. Ha."

And there were the characters. They were already so lovable, so why not add just a little more to them, if possible? It felt like the series was sort of "almost getting there" with the characters. Sure, I don't think that spewing out mounds of information about the characters would fit this series too well, but just a tad wouldn't hurt.

Oh well. At least the ending didn't have me screaming in rage. :p

I read that somewhere, but I'll look it up on ANN.

Okay! According to ANN, there actually isn't. That's tragic!!! :(

SouthJag Jul 12, 2006 05:20 PM

Tragic indeed. However, in the Twelve Kingdoms thread I posted the remainder of the Taiki arc in a big spoiler -- had to triangualte it between a few fansite forums and what the actual stories suggested. Feel free to check that out for at least some closure with Taiki.
