Yeah, that's what I was thinking. I'm not sure if it was the crashed RPM or this one.
Quickly, my RPM MINIONS. Go forth and search for a similar topic like this for your master!

I sure hope this is sarcasm, because you've clearly just described Manga's biggest fans.

Off The Wall / Re: Storytelling in manga and comics
« on: July 20, 2009, 09:46:45 AM »1 For one thing in terms of storytelling, manga tends to be a little fast paced and they tend to spread onto more issues before a story arc is resolved. Western Comics save graphic novels tend to be self contained stories that pretty much focus on story and character development.
Your point about fast paced storytelling kinda contradicts itself...
Quote
2. Both mediums have many different genres that many writers and artists explore but I find that most of the time, the consequences of the protagonists are somewhat more explored in comics than in manga where thet are pretty much excused of their actions in the story.
I don't read much manga, but if it's like you just described, that's what we like to call "bad storytelling."
Quote
3. On the storytelling aspect, I notice that comics have a smaller story arcs that encompass a longer, complex arc but manga specifically ongoing manga tend to go on one arc with one antagonist causing all sorts of trouble in an arc until the next one shows and is apparently more powerful than last antagonist who had somehow been deposed of.
...Okay, this point kinda contradicts the first point about fast paced storytelling...
Quote
4. Japanese manga tend to be a bit more visual with its storytelling than Western comics that use mostly dialogue.
What? Both are visual and use pretty much the same about of Word Bubbles. Well, cept if you read Bendis' work. Man, he can't enough of the Word Bubbles.
Quote
I am only making generalizations, I hadn't read that many manga or comics but I had noted some differences in storytelling as well as the art. Again, I do not know too much on the subject and I might as well be horribly worng on the topics at hand but these are my thoughts on the subject and this is not a comics vs. manga thread, I enjoy both mediums.
......So, if I'm to understand correctly, you don't read a lot of manga or comics, nor don't know much on the subject.....and you decided to make a topic trying to compare two things you don't know much about....for what reason exactly?

« on: July 20, 2009, 09:18:33 AM »I always knew Fox's ability to snag Smash Balls was fierce, but it wasn't until recently I understood how [tornado fang]ing bad it could get. Sometimes, I swear PB looks at the screen and sees some of the flukes and goes "WHAT A TWEEST!"
If the Smash Ball gets caught in Fox Fire, it's pretty much instant.
...did anything noteworthy even happen during my matches?
Your Ness is pretty awesome, I must say.

I gotta say though, that last match pleased me at the end, so all in all, not a bad night. Also, my Fox is getting better too, so yay!

On the Pirate Ship. You and Link were on the upper platform, I jumped up and Up Smashed you both, and someone you got the kill.
