Has anyone noticed... 4 Years, 3 Months ago Karma: 3  
That Stargate is kind of like a live-action Anime series?
I mean, think about it. It has a progressing and arcing story. It has tongue in cheek humor. It has action, lots of it. It has spirituality and religious references. It frequently quotes the work of other Sci-Fi (like how Anime makes references to other Anime or Manga). It has romance. It makes you think in depth about the nature of various things. Oh, it has hawt guys, cute chicks and deep characterization.
So, what are you thoughts?


Stargate, Anime-esque or no?

I have to disagree with you on the basis that Anime and Manga is a fairly new medium for these sort of thought provoking and in depth ideas. Over the years there have been many different mediums for this, including film, television, books, magazines and comic books. I think that there are definite similarities between the two and that they are both really good mediums for it but I do not feel that Stargate draws from Manga or anime in any direct form.

Hm, that's a good point. I suppose I was just looking at the rather dry American Comic books and super heroes when I wrote that. There are many thought provoking and deep stories in several other mediums. So yeah, Go Taslo! XD

As someone who grew up reading "Dry American Comic Books", I have to disagree with you and defend this medium as being just as worthy as any other. Over the years american comic books and superheroes have taken on many important social problems of their age, as the character was brought into a new era of history the issues they tackled have evolved as well. They have taken on issues such as racism, poverty, warfare, genocide, disease, crime, drugs, death, torture, terrorism among many other issues that are social, moral, and worldwide. Iron man was one of my favorite characters when I was young and he had a personal battle with alcoholism. X-Men take on genocide issue with people being "different" and being just as worthy to live. Magneto lost his family while living with them in a Nazi concentration camp during WWII. The Graphic Novel - Watchmen that started out as a comic book is another example that focuses on ethical and personal problems of its characters. I just don't think you can belittle the contribution American Comics have made in this area. They are all good mediums as Taslo stated, agree with his post 100%.
