This "we don't have to sacrifice anything" mentality is what held Trigun back imo
Vash should have learned that you can either save the butterfly OR the spider but you can't do both. This conflict is never resolved in the anime.
Tons of people die because Vash refuses to kill anyone, even if they're evil monsters, and he doesn't struggle with that nearly enough

Batman can’t kill joker or any of the other villains because then the story would end and the jew writers and company wouldn’t make as much money. Even when I liked comic books and wasn’t JQ aware I always understood that the “in universe” explanations and philosophizing they’d make batman do on the subject of killing were weak post-hoc explanations that were required to justify the real world situation.
Full metal alchemist also suffers because of this faggot liberal attitude. Lots of classic anime do, though not so many as western properties.

What?
Full Metal Alchemist's entire point is, that the law of equivalent exchange is absolute, and the entire story UP TO THE FINAL ACTION does abide by it.

It is the "You have to choose" concept in a pure anime form.

If you haven’t revisited FMA since becoming politically aware I would encourage you to do so, because it’s a lot more of a political story than you might remember, and all the politics are terrible. Half of the main plot of the series is about a pro-democracy revolution to overthrow the military government, all the heroic characters constantly stop to talk about how bad killing is, how bad fascism is, how democracy will save us, how diversity is our strength, etc etc. and of course it culminates in the climax with the gayest coup of all time, where the good guys attack a city without killing any of the defending forces (because killing is wrong) by shooting them in the shins and using non lethal explosives. (And as the first president of their new democracy they instill a transvestite lmao) It’s the “why didn’t the officer just shoot the knife out of his hand instead of killing him” libtard fantasy at scale. The side of the story more focused on the magic and homonculi isn’t so faggy, but it’s an inescapable aspect of the series.

You're right... I just remember the ending of brotherhood, not the original....

And It might not be a bad idea to re-watch it anyway. :thumbsupkonata:

And of course the manliest character gets emasculated and has his rightful inheritance taken from him by STRONG WOMAN who kicks his ass despite being 1/4th his size and not even an alchemist

GOD I HATE OLIVIER SO MUCH
@jimmybuffettfanaccount @ChristiJunior @LukeAlmighty @monsterislandcolonizer I don't know if it's because I haven't seen/read it in a bit but literally what in the fuck are you talking about? The way you're describing FMA makes it sound like some western poz I never heard of, I don't recall any of this crap being in the series.
It reads like it was written by a western influenced liberal woman, because it was. It has pervasive anti-authoritarian, anti-violence, anti-racist, and feminist themes. It’s not as abrasive as current year western works, but it’s got a pretty comparable worldview to something like Star Wars or Harry Potter. Don’t shoot the messenger.
@jimmybuffettfanaccount @ChristiJunior @LukeAlmighty @monsterislandcolonizer I watched 2003 and Brotherhood for the first time within the last two years and what the actual fuck are you even talking about? Speaking on Brotherhood specifically, the main characters have zero qualms with killing people who deserve it, Mustang fucking tortures Envy so badly he just outright commits suicide afterwards, they draw the line at killing soldiers who are conscripted under Zog (Bradley). The entire plan of the bad guys is "let's sacrifice bazillions of people so some immortal Jew fuck can live double forever!" which they almost accomplish by starting fake and gay wars all over the country under the pretense of "Amestris is the greatest country in the world, faggot!!!". It even ends with the chink going back to his own country so as to sort its own problems out rather than relying on zog influence. Everything else in your post is completely hallucinated and thus not worth responding to.
Ive never seen either anime, but in the manga, which I read last year, the characters really do espouse basic bitch liberal platitudes pretty much all the time. And mustangs whole arc is that he starts out being okay with killing and “ends justify the means” thinking and by the end he believes killing is bad, so citing his actions at the start of his arc, which the story explicitly condemns as wrong, as evidence that this is the value of the series instead of the opposite, is dishonest. There’s also zog-like aspects to all evil organizations/empires in fiction written by liberals, because zog is actually a totalitarian evil force. But you have to remember that liberals think of themselves as the plucky underdog and their enemies as the evil totalizing force, so the zog parallels are all there by accident. You need to be clearheaded and understand the difference between what you want to see in a work and what’s there.

>referencing when he torches Envy over and over again in the FINAL arc of the series
We are reaching levels of retardation no man has ever dared brave.
