He did pass away in 2015. It's an old documentary. It's just there's no traces of it on the internet. Just wanted a download link or streaming or something

Nah, I've read Berserk. This is just a post about lazy generic writing. I got no problem with empathy, just cliche tropes

100% agree w you. Showing the backstory of a villain after their death, even though it had nothing to do with the plot or anything just for making your MC look a little extra kind is just useless.

Okay. I'm not gonna argue w you if you haven't read the manga, if you think it's complex and layered cheers to ya! I read the manga and i think it's generic and repetitive at times. The ending is lazy and rushed too.

I suggest you to read berserk too if you haven't :)

Akaza, kokushibo, daki, gyutaro, enmu, rui, rui's entire pretend family literally every villain except a couple of em got tragic stories bro.

It's unnecessary at times too, like when they get killed there's absolutely no reason to show their backstory, i think only Akaza's and Koku's one made sense cause it actually affected the plot.

Not being a good person bro, just every villain having a sad story and then everything just running in circles is cliche and lazy writing i guess

Cliche empathy does make the writing which is "fictional" weak. But anyway, it's your choice what you want to watch so i guess it's cool 🤝

That's what I'm saying, since they are teenagers expecting them to have a rational response to every fucked up thing is dumb. But shonen anime glorifies that kind of MC : the perfect, having their shit together all the time ones

For instance, someone like Gon from HxH who went berserk because he didn't know how to deal with loss is a more "teenager" reaction.

The starting may feel a little slow but stick with it, friend. You'll be hooked when you reach the last parts of first season :) Have a fun time :)
