and then you saw a hot anime girl on the screen and fell in love with her then suddenly got sucked into her reality, what would you do? (note that after being sucked in you are now in anime form, you'll be you if you were an anime character. And note that hypothetically it would be like in Narnia where when you get back out no time would have passed in our universe and you'll be the exact age in the exact clothing you were in before you got sucked in)

Uh... run, and run very, very fast.

A. Because my wife would KILL me if I did anything.

B. Because, if you haven't noticed, male love intrests tend to get an awful lot of abuse in anime.

Well, a couple things:

1. I'd be a robot.

2. I would technically have an indefinite lifespan there.

That knocks off two of my big goals, so w00t.

No.

Leave. Unless it was Cowboy Bebop. Anime sucks.

I'd use my knowledge as a bargaining chip for power and use my knowledge of her to woo her, all the while thinking of ways to either get back out if it was a bleak anime, save the world if I had to or get whoever I like out of whatever situation if need be.

No.

Yeah, the anime part's not so hot. I wouldn't mind computer-generated, but I don't particularly like the idea of being in an animated world where I'd be technically under the total control of the animators.

This is disappointing, no one has mentioned joining her to fight crime or the darkness she's fighting against.:confused:

My jaw would drop, my eyes would become spirals, and a large bead of sweat would appear next to my head.

Then people would see her in still frame walking away in the foreground with her eyes closed maybe talking to a friend or saying some kind of good bye over her shoulder while my arms and legs flail and everything behind me becomes motion lines.

And none of it would make much sense.

This is disappointing, no one has mentioned joining her to fight crime or the darkness she's fighting against.:confused:


Meh. If we did that we'd be killed off at some point in the series. It always happens.

This is disappointing, no one has mentioned joining her to fight crime or the darkness she's fighting against.:confused:
Because that is a sure fire way of getting yourself either killed/injued/abused and/or malleted.

Well suppose you weren't under the control of the animators, suppose that some strange force made every action you do of your own free will appear magically in the show whether or not the animators agree with it or not.

I'm still not sure. I mean, I'd like the concept in general but I'm not sure if I'd be particularly keen on being in an animated world.

I'd probably unleash a raging torrent of profanities rivaled only by the growing mountain of confusion by the said female love interest as to why some guy popped out of nowhere and started cursing.

After I'd exhausted myself (or get cut off by extenuating circumstances, such as the bad guys showing up the girl slapping me to snap me out of it), I'd try to think about things logically and find a way out whilst wooing the girl with who I have fallen in love. The end results would probably be fit for an anime in of itself.

No.

.

The thought of having Scott Ramsoomair controlling what happens to me frightens me from the prospect. :p

You're just gonna bang the hell out of that drum, aren't you?

I don't want to play, I just want to bang on the drum all day.

Meh. If we did that we'd be killed off at some point in the series. It always happens.

Wait I saw many anime movies and some anime series where the good guys prevailed and usually only one guy died, most of the time to save the others.

Well suppose you weren't under the control of the animators, suppose that some strange force made every action you do of your own free will appear magically in the show whether or not the animators agree with it or not.

Oh. Then I'd go with it. :p

So in this fantasy can I lose the pudge?

Anime sucks (http://www.animesucks.com)

Thats grossly biased. Most of them just argue that anime sucks because they emphasize on breasts. Well not all of them. Thats like saying pizza sucks because SOME have goat cheese in them. And the emotional emphasis part didn't have any merit whatsoever. So theres a pic of a girl, well that can't tell yo whether or not it's emotional or not, maybe if the picture was animated or if he had a movie for proof. And plus he obviously changed the dialogue and only put pics on that involved breasts. Well thats like saying all Christians suck because of the Phelps.

Dude, the site's just a joke. Not worth arguing about.

And you have to admit that there is a bit of truth to it.

Well, if you were suddenly an anime character, and nobody in the show recognized you, and nobody outside the show could see/recognize you... you could say you were whoever you wanted.

Could you leave whenever you wanted?

Damn aspergers syndrome! I thought that site was serious... :eek:

Any action would be influenced by whatever anime I happen to be in. Furthermore, role involvement matters. For example, if I was assigned as background class, I could literally run around throwing chunks of ham at random people and nobody would pay attention to me.

Yes. LOL you could watch yourself making faces in the background in the anime you entered.

So you could do anything that wouldn't get you immediately killed. I guess it would depend on the anime then.

And timewarp.

I think it's the kind of site that only someone who knows at least a bit about anime could make.

If it was Tenjou Tenge I'd stay all day. <_<

Obviously that guy is a n00b when it comes to anime knowledge. I saw many that were like biographies that could actually have happened in real life like the anime stories of people damaged from the second world war. The guy was waay too biased in his claim that anime is mainly about breasts.

Of course. But the claim obviously isn't serious.

Listen, I hang around with people who think they hate anime all day, and while the topic doesn't often come up, I know that they wouldn't know enough to make a site like that.

true.

It's weird. If it was an anime I liked, I'd run like hell, and if it wasn't, I'd be bored or creeped out. Or some combination.

So you wouldn't do anything funny or hilarious on the show? I thought people would go to anime's they hate and pull off Jim Carreys while on the anime screen or help their heroes in animes they like.

Well, if it was an(the) anime I liked(cowboy bebop), I'd have a 50/50 chance of surviving the first minute of being in the show, depending on whether or not I apeared in the middle of a gunfight. If it wasn't, then I'd probably just go streaking and leave. Or just stay for a while if possible to see what it's like. Then go streaking and leave if I don't like it.

Could we come back to the anime later?

and then you saw a hot anime girl on the screen and fell in love with her then suddenly got sucked into her reality, what would you do? It would very much depend on which anime I was watching at the time.
The outside perspective and understanding of narrative imperative could certainly work in my favour though..

The show would lose its PG rating *nod* ;)

and then you saw a hot anime girl on the screen and fell in love with her then...
Dodgy order. I would suspect that falling in love with an animation would be more of a concern than any hypothesis on the reality of the events depicted therein.

... suddenly got sucked into her reality, what would you do? (note that after being sucked in you are now in anime form, you'll be you if you were an anime character.

I'd take the chance for a bit of Goundhog-Day-esque knowledge acquisition. Oh, and physics-defying swordplay. :D

No no and no.

Or, que ils dit en francias: non, non et non.

The point of anime is to pretend you like it so then you can get hot chicks that dress up.

I'm assuming that the anime characters have some kind of sentience and free will while you are there... and that what was set to happen is nil because you came in and messed everything up. Because if not, it'd be boring overall, seeing as everyone would just continue on as if you didn't exist. :(

But if so, it depends on the anime. I bet I'd have kick-ass powers though... :D

And needless to say about the other stuuf ;-)

I'd assume I was having a terrible hallucination and go crazy.

And then, I'd come and use my awesome powers to zap you because you are the evil one this episode. :D :eek:

well i am obssessed with haruka from Kimi Ga nozomu eien(rumbling hearts), so if i were in theat anime i would take an Ak-47 and kill Takayuki. After that i would hook up with haruka, and when mitsuki tries to draw me away from haruka, i would take that AK and Blow Mitsukis haed off,oo-rah. Alls wells that ends well i guess, well execpt for haruka and mitsuki

The scenario is dystopian.

"Suddenly realize you need to get a life, just at the moment you lose the option."

Actually, you still could get A life...

Just one as an anime person.

If it gets me out of the horror of being an animated character then it's all good.

oh, no, you are still in the animated universe... because the anime just happens to be one with a dead people realm. :p

I'd go master villain. Get cooler look, cooler weapons, lots of money and a maniacal laughter. I'd have the hero killed (no I'm not attempting it myself, I'd just use a simple trap). Of course, I know the Evil Overlord rules!
Then, I'd turn to the good side and assume the hero role, thus having access to the girl.
Yeeahh. And a beer.

I don't watch anime, and if I did, I doubt I would fall in love with a cartoon character, and btw.......creepy.

I feel the question was a little too specific. It would have been much better if it had gone, fictional character in anime/bookmovie/TV series/etc. A much wider set then with greater appeal.

Although I do wonder if Smunkee ever ever imagines herself in a fictional world. And no, not daydreams where you think about planting a boot in your boss's rear.

You should read Woody Allen's short story "The Kugelmas Episode." ;)

Hee hee, I've put my protagonist through a lot too, but I don't usually get yelled at about liberal doses of "evil authorism" in my dreams. I do get that a lot from my pre-readers though. :p

Unless the anime world was the Ranma 1/2 world and I was able to make my way to China to fall into the Jusenkyou Spirit of the Drowned Girl pool, then I'd leave and never return.

Actually, if I could keep my curse in the real world I'd be fine with that.

This is disappointing, no one has mentioned joining her to fight crime or the darkness she's fighting against.:confused:considering my anime...

the world will be destroyed... so my objective isn't to save the world, but to be standing on one particular spot when it does go boom.

first I'll join the military. become a Garland Operator, then do whatever it takes to be assigned on to Self Defense Force.

then, when the prototype Garland is stolen, and the Biker gang starts their bruhaha, sneak away to the lower levels, and enter the sealed block. then wait for the aliens to show.

that would assure that I would be in that sealed block as the world ship is destroyed and thus be one of the few survivors to make it back to Earth.


guess the movie!

You've been watching too much hentai.

Nah, that doesn't sound like hentai. Hentai's usually more of the fucked-up fetish variety than anything else.

*shudders at the thought of tentacle rape* Ugh.

It sounds more like the plot of a 'harem anime', where a nerdy guy gets thrown together with a dozen girls with no chance with any of them; and of course lots of gratuitous violence against his person.

Depends on the anime. I'd probably try to escape the show before I got culled in the seasonal pick-a-character-to-kill-off-stage.

Dodgy order. I would suspect that falling in love with an animation would be more of a concern than any hypothesis on the reality of the events depicted therein.


I'd take the chance for a bit of Goundhog-Day-esque knowledge acquisition. Oh, and physics-defying swordplay. :D

The whole situation is based on some strange occurance in quantum physics and the nerdiness of your character in this scenario thus allowing him to fall in love with an anime chick.

Oh that explains soooooo much.

You know? If your only here to piss me off leave this thread unless you have something to say about the subject matter.:upyours:

Although you would be two-dimensional and only have a half-hour a week to accomplish your goals.

Yeah, that's why I added later that I wouldn't be too big on the whole animation/TV show thing.

Step 1: Grab the nearest blunt object and hit myself with it to make sure I was not dreaming and/or hallucinating.

Step Deux: Seduce a hot catgirl, and get in bed with her.

Step III: GIANT FUCKING ROBOTS!!!

Step $: Find the nearest spacetime rupture and return to my own reality.

well, I have been busy so she has been trapped in a broom closet for about 3 weeks.

3 weeks in a literal broom closet or 3 weeks that you couldn't write any new material?

Ewwww, the children would look gruesome....:eek:

Okay...I don't generally fall in love with anime characters, no matter how hot they are. I'd get sucked into Naruto, probably. It'd most likely be Sakura or Ino, and I'd yell at them for being Sasuke fangirls (I can be very abrasive at times) and hide behind Kakashi.

Of course.

That one Nyanneechuan, spring of drown girl. There very tragic story of young girl that drown in spring 1, 500 year ago. Now who ever fall in that spring take body of young girl.

Young girl. As in like 12 or so, I think.

Nope. About 16. Or - if the Herb story in Ranma doesn't fail me - same age as the male version.

Hmmm...

Same age as the male version is acceptable. 16 is too young.

Hell, I think that it'd be in ashes soon after ANYONE came in. Just because that would happen...

That or one of the psychos would kill you after you exploited their psychological weaknesses.

This would all depend on which anime I was now a part of. I'd wonder what my chances of dying were for one. Some are more likely to kill off the cast than others...

Practically for 6 year olds, that is.

If you know a given anime, barring too-high power levels, you can survive most events in it. If you use the info as a currency, you can reach a status in which it's in the interests of the group you're with to keep you alive.

Of course.

And unlike Ranma, I'd recognize the gift for what it is: the ability to see both sides of the spectrum, to know both the male and the female truly...that is definitely some worthwhile knowledge.

Plus it'd be fun.

That would be great, assuming the series wasn't free-form and the editors still controlled it (sorta). Even if not, you still got some good stuff. Like enemy weaknesses. :cool:

Hmmm...

Same age as the male version is acceptable. 16 is too young.
Kinda hard to tell with the curse. Some curses seem to age (Pantyhose Taro for example), whereas those curses that given ages (Ryouga) seem to be stuck in their curse age.

Technically the Nyanneechuan is just spring of drown girl, so I would assume you'd be the same age as you started, but...

On the other hand, Takahashi-sama made note that we shouldn't think too hard about this.

I've always thought that Ranma's curse was a sly comment on gender roles in Japan, especially as Ranma is very much a traditional Japanese male in many regards.

Well if you are a minor character your chances aren't too hot in many of them but in shows like Last Exile or Scryed your chance of death is pretty high even for the big characters.

Yes, well, considering Ranma-chan does seem to age along with Ranma, I would presume that in all likelihood anyone else who fell in the same pool would also have their curse age, or at least I would hope, anyway.

And I'm pretty sure you're right about the gender role bit. Unfortunately, I never got past the first season of the show so I know nothing about what happened after that. I've seen enough references to other stuff via Megane 6.7's MST series to know at least some though. I don't know why I never bothered to watch the other seasons.

I'm trying hard to think of another anime I'd be interested in going in to...maybe Chrono Trigger if we can take the cutscenes made for the PSX port to be enough to warrent the Chronoverse as a reality to enter...if that's the case then I daresay I would prefer that over Ranma 1/2.

That or one of the psychos would kill you after you exploited their psychological weaknesses.

Sir, I'll have you know that I am a Level 12 Necromancer, currently allied with the Demon Armies of the Abyss, and am more than proficient with a bastard sword.

Trust me, I would complete my mission.

That somewhat depends on how willing to make such a political statement Takahashi-san is. Akane DOES seem like a male though...

I mean more on how Ranma is constantly complaining that a REAL man is X or only a girl does Y, and he always ends up violating X and doing Y in his female form.

I wouldn't mind getting sucked into Full Metal Panic! now that I think about it.

I wouldn't mind getting sucked into Full Metal Panic! now that I think about it.Getting stuck with those idiots would be a nightmare.

And unlike Ranma, I'd recognize the gift for what it is: the ability to see both sides of the spectrum, to know both the male and the female truly...that is definitely some worthwhile knowledge.

Plus it'd be fun.actually, your mentality stays the same, only the form changes. so yes, you get dunked into the pool of the drowned panda, you will be a panda with the mind of a human.

Step III: GIANT FUCKING ROBOTS!!!
... which anime do they have giant robots built for that activitiy... :confused: :p

Too many of them.

Too many of them.

... I'm definitely watching the wrong Anime... :headbang:

Leave. Unless it was Cowboy Bebop. Anime sucks.

I love football, sports suck!

Giving the scenario I would have to rape her; it's like saying "hello" in anime.

Well, aren't you just a beautiful human being? :rolleyes:

I would appear as the powerful but misunderstood villain, and after kicking some butt and destroying some stuff, I would convert to the side of good, gaining the sympathy of the female character and the audience. Then I would save the day, do "stuff" with the attractive character and then leave just as mysteriously as I appeared.

Edit: by stuff I mean eat out at a nice restaraunt with her, then disapear before I had to pay the bill.

Tentacle-rape hentai anime only. Aside from that, it's not more or less common than in other genre...

I find having huge eyes and technicolor hair to be very discomforting.

Erm. No.

I would prefer Ghost in Shell myself.

I feel I'm the only one who has seen Perfect Blue...*shuffles feet sheepishly*

Nope, I've seen it and loved it.

Bible Black sounds more like your thing XD

Bible Black sounds more like your thing XD

I'm more into Berserk :p

considering my anime...

the world will be destroyed... so my objective isn't to save the world, but to be standing on one particular spot when it does go boom.

first I'll join the military. become a Garland Operator, then do whatever it takes to be assigned on to Self Defense Force.

then, when the prototype Garland is stolen, and the Biker gang starts their bruhaha, sneak away to the lower levels, and enter the sealed block. then wait for the aliens to show.

that would assure that I would be in that sealed block as the world ship is destroyed and thus be one of the few survivors to make it back to Earth.


guess the movie!

Zomg Megazone 23 (aka Robotech the Movie)!

Anyway, like Junii, I would also be sucked into a mecha universe, but Gundam instead. Preferably UC, just so I don't get killed in seconds by a stray shot by Kira or Heero. As a grunt MS pilot, I would attempt to work my way up the ranks through incredible feats of piloting. Perhaps changing major historical events in the timeline. I'm assuming those on NSG from Ireland don't appreciate having a 20 mile long space colony dropped on Dublin?

Hey Guys! Mario counts as an anime you can get sucked into! http://ineedamario.ytmnd.com/

Build a bomb and destroy the Anime world.

If anybody ever happened upon me idly eatching anime, I'd sincerely hope they'd check to see if I still had a pulse...

*shudder* never, ever, EVER mention the abomination that is called the Robotech Movie...

Megazone 23, Megazone 23 PT 2, Megazone 23 Pt 3a and Megazone 23 Pt 3b are sooo much better than the drek from Carl Mesek.

Gundam X. then you can be a Rogue Gundam Pilot and join a group of Pirates and ply your trade. ;)

depending on the anime... the problem may be the blood is concentrated in one particular part of your body, preventing movement from other parts... :p

and then you saw a hot anime girl on the screen and fell in love with her then suddenly got sucked into her reality, what would you do? (note that after being sucked in you are now in anime form, you'll be you if you were an anime character. And note that hypothetically it would be like in Narnia where when you get back out no time would have passed in our universe and you'll be the exact age in the exact clothing you were in before you got sucked in)
You mean like make Hentai?

actually, your mentality stays the same, only the form changes. so yes, you get dunked into the pool of the drowned panda, you will be a panda with the mind of a human.

I know that, but just being in a female body would give me better perspective. Sure, my mind stays the same, but the difference in hormones, in bodily organs, and all that jazz would enable the different perspective that I seek.

If I am idly watching anime, it means that I have been duct-taped to a chair, propped in front of the television and my eyelids have been taped open. :p

Because clearly the fact that something is animated must mean it's for children and cannot possibly be entertaining to an adult in any way, shape, or form. :rolleyes:

I know you're kidding, Goof, but I had to say that because oftentimes that really is the case and I hate it when people take that ridiculous attitude.

I feel I'm the only one who has seen Perfect Blue...*shuffles feet sheepishly*

That's one of the best films I've ever seen. It's like animated Hitchcock. :cool:

Clearly. I like my entertainment like I like my life; somber, meaningful and firmly grounded in reality. I have no time for frivolity. *nod* :)

I'm not kidding about my dislike of anime, but that has little to do with the fact that it's animated, and a considerable amount to do with it's often poor translations, odd story pace, and unpleasant(to my eyes) proportions. Of course, I'm being a bit silly in my harshness because... well, I'm silly.

Check out Perfect Blue. You'll change your mind.

That's why you watch fansubs, which tend to be truer to the original and are often superior in translation ability as well. Still, I can see where you're coming from when it comes to unpleasantness...a few anime styles are rather unpleasant to me as well. But, I like cute, and for the most part anime is cute in one fashion or another despite the seriousness of the anime at hand, so I like it. Each to their own, I suppose. I mostly overreacted, and for that I do apologize.

Check out Perfect Blue. You'll change your mind.

On your advice, I just watched the trailer for Perfect Blue.

...

That is all.

I'm sure the trailer doesn't do it justice. I had a similar opinion of anime as you have, but then I watched that film. Total eye-opener.

Well, I'm not going to pretend that my opinion is anything other than mine, and I'm the last person to knock something that someone else enjoys. I'll just borow a line from Austin Powers; "This sort of thing ain't my bag, baby." :)

I'm just suggesting you try the one movie, not watch every episode of Inuyasha. :p

Shoot myself as I'm a heterosexual female and the only anime I ever watched involved big space ships that could change themselves into big robots. I got tired of it after a bit. Something about a singer and some pilots and the world being threatened by aliens, you know one of the more original ones.

A very limited view of anime, my dear. ;)

Heh, I only knew it existed in some form by that name, I've never seen either version. Though with your advice I will only see the original. Also, I haven't seen Gundam X yet, so I don't know much about it, though people tell me its good.

seriously tho. fansub (not dub) is the way to go. and if you can get them, the DVD's done of Studio Ghibli's works are awsome. Poco Rosso, Tom Poko, Princess Mononoke, Spirited Away...

Perfect Blue is a good Psycho Thriller.

Megazone 23... a great classic.

Gundam X is an alternate world Gundam. "What if the colony drop succeeded."

Typical plotline, a kid is hired to rescue a kidnapped girl from some pirates, and in the process finds an old Gundam with a very, very powerful weapon.

but it's the nice twists in the tale that make up for the unorignal plotline.
