akulakhan (12/12/2015) [-] He's what happens when you take a sheltered 14-years old abandoned by his father and make him pilot an eldritch abomination to kill other eldritch abominations, in a doomed world where almost everyone has mental issues and the only person he finds a connection with is, you guessed it, another eldritch ******* abomination. Also, the pinnacle of his sexual experience is jerking off to a comatose girl.
This goes without saying, but Evangelion is pretty ****** up.

He's pretty much human weakness personified. It's a character that has all the bad inherent traits that everyone has in them, and pretty much nothing else. That's why he's so detestible, since most people can recognize a side of themselves that they don't really like in him.

udungoofedup (12/12/2015) [-] He doesn't make any decisions himself and he's too hesitant when he does. He ain't no good with da ladies as well. To be fair though, if it were real, it would be completely believable to be like that. What with the parental neglect and the constant threat of utter destruction looming at all times.

microbrony ONLINE (12/12/2015) [-] Short rundown is he doesn't really do much aside from complain about how he cant do it and how he doesn't like that people are relying on him.
While you might argue it's realistic it does get annoying when the main character does nothing but complain

allthelolz (12/12/2015) [-] I thought the psychic arc was phenomenal it was a cool way for them to encounter more unique enemies. The Demon World "arc" was where I got bored. I thought it was a really ****** way for them to end the series. Almost like it was just rushed out or something.

mrpkmon (12/12/2015) [-] **** if I know man How did he even end up there in the first place since he died without regrets because he saved like 30 ppl he was probably put there to help them move on and because maybe she had his heart so they had a connection plus the fact that she wanted to thank the person who gave her the heart besides that not sure man.

I've watched that damn show several times now. I've lived as a jobless neet for a few years now. I'm getting way better but it still hit deeper than Anne ******* Rice.
I keep this song on my ipod so that whenever I'm walking about outside, something that I use to be horribly afraid of doing, I can think back to how bad things were. It's taking a while but it'll all be okay one day. One day...
The song is called Hitori Bocchi. It seems the video has been removed from youtube. Luckily, I still got the song. I'll see about uploading it later.

pokemonstheshiz (12/12/2015) [-] It was on Netflix a couple years ago, and was listed as a comedy. The first few episodes were pretty funny, so I foolishly believed them.
When you're completely unprepared, the depressing-ness is even worse.

suckmyfunnyjunk ONLINE (12/12/2015) [-] It's depressing because it's a story about a young man who essentially could have been any of us. A young man who lives as a shut in, without a job, with a fear of social interactions and a paranoia about the world about him in general (so much so that his furniture starts talking to him). This young man gets to experience all kinds of terrible things that happen in society that happens to people all around the world. From pyramid schemes, to suicide cults, to simple online addiction that pushes you even further and further out of reality. The story is depressing in that it makes you feel like all of it could have happened to you, and at times it will make you feel like there is no chance of turning things around. It'll make you hate yourself and the world around you at times. But you're right in saying that it can be funny - it really is sometimes, with plenty of adult humour to indulge in - but that's black humour, laughing at the troubled state of mind the main character is in, or the terrible, realistic situations he finds himself in. It's depressingly comic.

Simultaneously got released in America and Japan. Well, sort of. American episodes played an hour earlier.
Dub is amazing.
In fact, I prefer the dub to the subs; the voice actors for the dub were chosen by the production team of the anime, I think.

nigeltheoutlaw (12/12/2015) [-] Yeah that only scared me when I was high off of my balls and listening to creepy music. The next day I thought about it for like two seconds and realize that turning your arms or even just tensing yourself would make more than enough friction for you to stop. Once you did that it would be easy for you to stop. Rescue might be difficult and require hooking something into your flesh, but it beats dying in there.

meganinja (12/12/2015) [-] Higurashi is good. Corpse Party pretty much is a poster child for horror anime. Dangan Ropa (sp?) I'd say also fits the bill. Although they're also more mystery. Another also fits in.
The differences is that in action the main character is alpha and in charge. There are plenty of chances for self defense and it's less based on fear and more based around the thrill of combat.
In horror it's more focused around the hopelessness of a one sided conflict. "This is going to happen to you, and you can't do much about it. The small ability you have to change the outcome likely won't come down to force of arms, but you solving a mystery before you're killed. Good luck."

nigeltheoutlaw (12/12/2015) [-] I see where you're coming from, but I've never found a single anime frightening in the slightest. Most of the time their attempts at horror end up being unintentional humor that ruins any chance of me being frightened, let alone taking future scenes seriously. But opinions I guess.

masterofmods (12/11/2015) [-]
I feel Hellsing isn't necessarily horror and stuff, but more of a tragedy with violent elements. You have these three big, awful, unstoppable forces on an inexorable collision course, and the individuals involved are in way over their heads and powerless to stop it. The show, especially at the end, evokes a sense of insignificance and sadness that few if any other shows have made me feel. On the other hand maybe I'm just rambling, I dunno.

syntheticdoll (12/12/2015) [-] I love it, like ye, violence is a thing but the part was really good when Alucard showed his softer side when he had to kill Anderson. Like here's this 600 years old vampire with superpowers who finds a perverted joy in killing and then the next moment you just want to hug him and give him ice cream and tell him everything's okay.

syntheticdoll (12/11/2015) [-] Well there isn't really that much Horror anime, especially good quality and Hellsing kinda falls into the genre. If you think about it, Saw is considered a horror movie and all it has is ******* of gore.

anon (12/12/2015) [-]
Saw is a Mystery/Thriller. People who categorize it as horror are miscategorizing it.
A lot of Thriller movies are also Horror movies and vice-versa, but Saw isn't one of those movies.
I think Hellsing also falls under Action/Thriller, not Horror.
Another is pretty good, but yeah there aren't many good anime in the horror genre

shuckmywang ONLINE (12/12/2015) [-] I really disliked Index. Index herself had a lot of potential as an awesome character but aside from just a few episodes, she was purely comical relief and I hated it. The main character wasnt strong enough to carry the show on his own either, imo. He was pretty 2D and boring. Railgun was much better with a strong main character and mostly decent supporting cast.

emiyashirou ONLINE (12/12/2015) [-] Touma isn't made to carry anything by himself. There's a reason Accelerator Also Hamazura later is turned into a protagonist. Also the anime is terrible at portraying Touma. In the novels he actually has a personality, not just "see enemy, must punch."
Also, the character Index's existence is basically a nullfactor lately. She's had like two relevant scenes in the last 14 books, neither lasting more than 20 pages (Haven't finished the latest one though, so maybe she actually does something again for once)

thundagawd (12/12/2015) [-] To be fair, he listed it as "Unfinished" rather than "Exceptional". The way it's going, and the way it's been animated so far (It's almost frame-by-frame animation), with the episodes they have left, they're probably going to conclude with the Alien Conquerors arc, and then bring it back for another season (It's definitely popular enough), in which case it would definitely earn it's place as an "Exceptional" series (In my eyes at least). But like any other anime, there's always the possibility that they might throw us a curveball, go Original Anime Ending and **** the bed (Like Claymore or Akame Ga Kill!).
I really, REALLY hope that doesn't happen, but hopefully you get my point.
