The "Things That Would Kick Ass as Animes or Cartoons" Topic. - VGF

MC Mushi Mo · 05-09-2007, 10:27 PM

Here's mine:

Final Fantasy VI. Just imagine Kefka fully animated with a proper voice to spew all those One-liners. Just thinking about it makes me wanna geek out. Also, all the sadder scenes Spoiler Below

Like the part where Cyan's family is taken away on the phantom train

would feel even sadder, and and and and oh good lord I can't hardly type.

Lord Kenny · 05-09-2007, 10:38 PM

They need to make a new Legend of Zelda show based off of Twlight Princess.

Hopefully, it will be better than the last one...

Sim Kid · 05-09-2007, 10:53 PM

A Tales of Destiny 2 Anime would be rather interesting.

...provided they can make Reala, Elraine, and Harold not look so freaky. (Cowers in fear from Tales of the Abyss's Harold doll)

MC Mushi Mo · 07-20-2007, 06:44 PM

And now that I've played it: Phoenix Wright. I would go into more detail about this... but my mind has suddenly gone blank. Excuse me...

Mikhail Gorbachev · 07-20-2007, 07:06 PM

Tetris.

MC Mushi Mo · 07-20-2007, 07:10 PM

^ Not much room for story though.

YOU ARE MY FRIENDS · 07-20-2007, 07:21 PM

I agree with Mushi, FFVI Cartoon would be awesome. Though I'm pretty sure we'll see an FFVII cartoon first...

Mikhail Gorbachev · 07-20-2007, 07:26 PM

WTF? Everyone knows Tetris is a story-driven game. It's the story of an architect in Russia during Stalin's five year plans who is given far too many tetromino-shaped bricks than are needed to complete construction. The only way the architect can use them all is to build them in such a way that they oblitherate each other. But at some point, the architect has to overstack, and construction will fail.
Spoiler Below

Tetris is really a metaphorical tale about the flaws of communism. The U.S.S.R. became corrupt and warred against the United States, which is represented by the falling blocks that dually represent the nonexistent missles that both countries pretended to have in the arms race that was the Cold War. The space shuttle you see represents the U.S.S.R.'s initial success in the space race. The U.S.S.R. became increasingly unstable over time, alluded to by the blocks stacking up in the playfield, and as the player tops out and the game finally ends, the Soviet Union collapses. It's really a story about the touching struggle of the Soviet Union to stay alive.

It would work better as an OVA, though.

Pix, you're as bad as typhlame now.

So.

STFU TETRIS BOY

A cartoon based off of the new Gamera movie would be a good cartoon.

Spoiler Below

I heard that there was going to be one, but since it's already the middle of summer (the cartoon was going to come in Spring), it's too late.

Sim Kid · 07-20-2007, 10:43 PM

An Anime that:

-Does NOT Feature crossdressing, sex-changes, or scenes filled with Innuendo.
-Does NOT drag the story on with flashbacks, fighters explaining what their attacks do and why they fight, or screaming.
-Uses male voice actors that do not sound like a text-to-speech program.
-Does not give helium to their female voice actresses to make them sound even more annoying.
-Does not add filler-characters who, during action sequences, just stand back and comment, or give that role to main characters. (You know who I'm talking about...Kagome, Ash's three-or-so followers, more than 50% of the cast of Advent Children)
-Ends before it can become a Novelty anime like Naruto
-Optional: If a spinoff movie is created, the movie is actually important to the storyline. (See: Conquerer of Shamballa, the 2nd Inuyasha movie to some extent)

Whelp the dragon · 07-21-2007, 04:55 PM

I'd love to see Docotr Who as an anime, or Chronicles of the cursed Sword a brilliant anime.

VWF_champion · 07-21-2007, 05:10 PM

Ideas:
Mortal Kombat (Could be interesting...)
Resident Evil (Or has that been done before?)
Metroid (C'mon, think about it.)
Anything that Isn't Final Fantasy (Why the hell would we need a freakin' show about that overrated trash?)

YOU ARE MY FRIENDS · 07-21-2007, 05:13 PM

^ Mortal Kombat already has an animated series.

X-3 · 07-21-2007, 05:20 PM

I agree, FFVI would be an awesome series. Phoenix Wright could work too. *Imagines cases being short arcs, each being around 4 episodes*

MC Mushi Mo · 07-21-2007, 05:20 PM

^^ It only became overrated because of FF VII(7). I was suggesting that a FF VI(6) anime would be awesome.

Bomby · 07-21-2007, 05:38 PM

As far as I know, none of Kazuo Koike's manga have been adapted into anime.

Galefore · 07-21-2007, 08:01 PM

STFU, VGA. Final Fantasy is not overrrated trash. Especialy the distinctly underrated Final Fantasy IX, which also would be a kewl anime. And there already has been some Final Fantasy anime, including FF: Unlimited, one based on FFVII (ugh), and one based on FFV or IV, one or the other.

Anyway, I'd like to see a Dark Cloud anime. And also, there does need to be a PW anime. There is a manga, so it is a distinct possibility that there will be an Anime in the future. Keep thine fingers crossed.

YOU ARE MY FRIENDS · 07-21-2007, 08:05 PM

That's not VGA, that's VWF. VGA is Ultimategamer*randomnumbershere*

X-3 · 07-21-2007, 09:25 PM

^^I think that was FFV that that anime was based on. A FFIV anime would eb pretty cool as well. Luckily for you guys, that FFVII anime was just a movie that came with Advent Children.

^Pretty much...
