Comments on: Reviewing Reviews and a Loveless Review http://op.deadend-detour.com/2008/07/reviewing-reviews-and-a-loveless-review/ My opinions, let me tell them to you. Mon, 30 Jan 2012 23:13:38 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Kiriska http://op.deadend-detour.com/2008/07/reviewing-reviews-and-a-loveless-review/comment-page-1/#comment-18 Kiriska Sun, 20 Jul 2008 01:02:00 +0000 http://op.deadend-detour.com/2008/07/14/reviewing-reviews-and-a-loveless-review/#comment-18 I don't understand why people are compelled to animate series that aren't finished yet. It just leads to bad things happening. Even for FMA, which is a brilliant anime, because the manga isn't done, the ending kills everything. JUST SAY NO TO ANIME FOR UNFINISHED MANGA.<br/><br/>I think Soubi probably does have the most potential for character development, but the anime doesn't allow for any of it. The ears, eh; you should be able to figure out the depth of characters without a virginity beacon floating on their heads. It's just too cheap and easy. And yeah, Kio was fun, but still pretty pointless and unexplained. I don’t understand why people are compelled to animate series that aren’t finished yet. It just leads to bad things happening.

D8 My brains are in danger...<br/><br/>Lol, you really crucified Loveless! ;P Like I said, I never watched all of the anime, so I never realized they made it before the manga was finished... Oops. That means it fails like the Fruits Basket anime fails, since they're both published slowly but with a strong fanbase... My bad... xD<br/><br/>Most of the points you had complaints on were indeed addressed in the manga. Sure, there's still shota and bondage, but there's not NEARLY as much emphasis on those scenes so it really doesn't bother the reader. <br/><br/>I guess you could just ignore the ears, but I always felt they lent a bit of insight to the peoples' character... :3 And I think Soubi actually undergoes the most changes, Ritsuka being a close second. (Pfft, you liked Kio...) <br/><br/>Reviews in general are biased by nature, yes. ^^ But it sounds more intelligent if you write it formally, so people are more likely to take heed. I know I do. Go grammar! :D “Now if you’ll excuse me, I need to go bash in the brains of the person who recommended this series to me.”
