    When the Seagulls Cry was so awesome it was horrible.

    Plot makes no sense, but the idea of witches being embodiments of chaos who love killing in the most grotesque and obscure ways is just f---ing amazing.

    Plus the protagonist is a total pervert
    Anime General Discussion - Page 14 Cry0102

    Insane witches (that are cooler than Madoka), occasional loli, a perverted main character, lots of killing, and a plot that makes no sense especially because it ends in the middle of the story. Yup, it's got it all.

    God dang it, now my brain wants to watch all of his movies! Well as far as I know Miyazaki has been announcing his retirement since 1998, its like his third time or at least something close to that right?

    Not sure if it's happened before or not. The only movies of his I still haven't seen are Porco Rosso and Castle in the Sky. I can't seem to find good downlo...I mean, a way to acquire them in anything but pure dubs.

    So remember how I said I was watching some series in tandem a while back?  One of them was Fate Zero, and I've gotta ask something.

    Should I be worried that Caster is my favorite character?

    EDIT: Oops, double post. Apologies...

    Nope, he's a great character, although I love Berserker the most.

    I know I've always liked villainous characters more than heroic ones, and normally I don't think I'd have a problem with it. It just feels like the anime is under the assumption that you wouldn't like him and is trying to kill him off as fast as possible as a plot device for the other characters' growth. Maybe I've just become too self-aware of the tropes and such in media, but in a very roundabout way it feels like the show is kind of chastising me for liking him so much.

    Nah, I think it's more like, he's causing problems, so he needs to be eliminated. Not because he's evil, but because he gets in their way. He was quite expanded on over some of the other characters that made it to the end.

    Rider, Caster and Archer. In that order, are my favorite servant characters. I hate what they did with Archer though I mean its Gilgamesh the King of Uruk and they made him this evil and really boring... Dbag.

    He's not evil, just really really narcissistic.

    If he gets more development later, then great happy

    But right now it only feels like you kind of described just now.  He's more of a plot device than a character, only there to be a force the main characters must overcome rather than a participant in the story himself.  From what I've seen, he's had only one moment of characterization:

    Spoiler:

    Again, if he lasts long enough to get more actual characterization then that'll be awesome.  It just frustrates me to see such a cool character, and as of now the only truly villainous of the servants (Berserker may be another contender, but I haven't been exposed to him much yet), get pushed aside as a plot device.

    He gets more development in the novel. A lot of them do.
    Oh, If you haven't finished yet, then you're probably haven't seen everything he does. He gets even more development then you even have seen yet.

    Anyone here actually see Shugo Chara? It's probably one of the better "standard" magical girl anime's made.

    Nononononononononononono I am NOT watching Shugo Chara. My girlfriend likes it and so I checked it out and then realized it's over 50 episodes. Yeah nope wave 

    I tend to stray away from longer animes. I'm more easily swayed by the shorter ones, 12-26 episodes.

    Ok guys, if you haven't been paying attention to RWBY, go watch up to episode 8. Because Episode 8 is where the entire series shows what it's capable of, AND IT'S AWESOME.

    Jaune Arc is very much my favorite character now.

    So let's hear all your thoughts. Do you think anime should be mainstream?
