Eh really? I thought it was quite an interesting quote I got from [House M.D], well except the video games part- that was original.
But I meant what I've said; I was able to learn more stuff watching Discovery and History channel than I'd cared to learn about from books. And sometimes other non-educational focus shows like CSI, Numbers, Burn Notice, House, Fringe, White Collar etc This would hold true for Aria as well; Like every healthy little boy, I like to see guns in action,and for once there's an anime to my liking that would involve guns.. lots of guns. With any luck my knowledge of the subject would increase ten folds by the end of this series

If other abnormal teenager do something bad then another abnormal teenager will stop him/her. It's not like you will send a normal to go against an abnormal. Specially if all abnormal are isolated into a place for abnormal.

In the same way, Butei High has an entrance exam to test people. There might still be the above cases, but it has the exact same chance of happening to someone in the army. Sure, the army has much more discipline, but if you're going to take your gun out and start shooting random people you either have a grudge or are insane, and no amount of discipline is going to stop you from that. Any more things you'd like an explanation for? |

Some LN is directed to younger reader, like this one and IS, but some are directed at older audience. Please don't generalize and bash a media base on only your little knowledge of it. |

If you've read on the relationship between the anime industry and light novel publishers, anime producers are actually asking the latter to produce content for them from the getgo. They've burned through so many of the popular sources that they can no longer afford to wait and evaluate. It's a reciprocal relationship in which publishers provide something that's fan friendly and easily adaptable, while the anime producers provide shows that advertise those sources a couple years down the road. |

Personally I think this series is mediocre.
Now I'm not going to say all light novels are bad, Nisioisin for instance is pretty good. But this show does fit the "generic light novel" mold that's been coming out from JC Staff a lot lately. And of course just because you lampshade the clichéd elements of your show doesn't make it any less clichéd. The only thing I will say is that the Gun Porn is pretty great. But Gun Porn can't make up for what is a pretty tired plot. How many times have I seen a Rie Kugiyama voiced loli with a prickly attitude "enslave" some snarky guy before? How many times have I seen the setting of a "combat school", particularly in a LN adaptation? The smooth animation and decent action sequences are wasted on this. |

Like I said there are a hell of a lot more hormonal teenagers in an Academy for teenagers than there are psychos and extremists in an army. And considering we've just seen a titular character effortlessly illustrate why guns should never be given to children at the end of the very first episode, I think it's pretty obvious why simply saying "because of an extrance exam" isn't good enough. First of all, whatever it is clearly hasn't worked and second of all an entrance exam and training can't possibly filter out all the teenagers who are irresponsible with guns because then that would leave no one. On the other hand people in the army are mature adults who are far less likely to do something stupid with a gun.

If I gave every teenager in the world a gun, they'd have a big shoot-out because of their hormones. Irresponsibility with guns doesn't mean they kill people. Nobody except general populace cares that they're irresponsible with guns as long as they don't kill people. And people can be trained to be responsible with guns. Why don't child soldiers take their guns and turn on their own? Social taboo, upbringing, socialization, many things act as hindrances to Butei blasting their guns at normal people. Even those abnormal people don't want to be hated. Even if they are trigger happy. Quote:

I like Kinji far better than any of the other heroes, too. As for combat school in an LN adaptation. I'm going to guess, twice. |
