The difference between liking and not liking episode 21 is probably whether you like Altair or not.
This episode would come off as very boring if you don't emphasize with Altair. And very unfulfilling if you want to see her defeated. Personally, I don't think the fights in the episodes before this were pointless. Most the battles in ReCreator were pretty inconclusive. Generally, people said that they wanted to say and then left for one reason or another. This was the same. Every fight in the last few episodes was meaningful for the ones in them. Well, probably not Hikayu Hoshikawa but she was a gag fighting character anyways. You know, people sure get worked up on the words "murder" and "murderer" sometimes. Killing people is pretty common in anime. Murder is simply "unlawful killing" which is also pretty common. Quote:
Because the way you are posting, you are claiming to represent the "real audience", which hates Altair and episode 21. This is something I find rather annoying since I like Altair and episode 21. Being misrepresented is definitely irritating. Good job man. |

I like all those songs, but they can't hold a candle to the OP for Made in Abyss. The composer uses changes in key and instrumentation to create four different moods in just ninety seconds. That's a real accomplishment in composition.

So really it is nothing to do with it being "believable" or the in-show concept of "acceptance", you just didn't like it. Disliking it is fine. Disliking characters because they have plot armor or disliking the show because the "bad guys win" is perfectly reasonable. Don't put on airs about it by trying to fit your opinions of the show inside the show's philosophy. |

The "audience" isn't a separate character, they are meant to represent people who watch anime. It creates a disconnect the same way I watch X-men cartoons, and have no idea why everyone wanted to kill mutants. When you have "normal people" in the cast, and then have them act unlike what the audience would have done IRL, you completely break the story. And I am sorry that you believe heroes deserve to be killed. I don't know what kind of past you had, but it must be messed up that you want the world destroyed.

The problem is not the show is crazy or stupid. The problem is you decided to interpret the show that way. Like, maybe don't do that. By the way, can you really not understand why people wanted to kill the mutants in X-Men? If so then you have a very fundamental problem of not being able to see things from other peoples perspectives. |

The show is stupid because it decided to appease the villain, and shoving a "touching scene" that made the deaths in prior episodes pointless, and like the audience didn't care. Not even Setsuna and Altair reflected on Altair's actions.
It's not like the staffs didn't have options to give crazy power up to the heroes to defeat the villain. I'm sure the the make-believe audience will accept it, just like you who don't want the heroes to die. BTW, if Hiroe followed the path like Light from Death Note and gave more screen time to Altair, he wouldn't have any choice but to kill her. Instead, he gave minimum time to her and not so pitiable reason to cheer for her cause.

The power-ups could have came from the ECF story that wasn't shown to us real audience. Hiroe just decided not to include any because he was determined to show how touching Altair's raison d'etre is. I'm sure if Hiroe admitted that she's the villain like you are admitting, then he wouldn't have any problem to kill her.

Altair is a meme. People will accept anything from a meme, while they have stricter standards for published work from an author.

strange because in real world this not happened, even she being a "meme" you have peoples have in japan which didn't liked it, then this show which that idea of "meme" and everyone will accept is false or is not accurace, if we mirror with real world, which is what was supposed to be.

They couldn't, for example, just instantly give Selesia the power to destroy a planet in a single novel. Some smaller power ups are possible, but nothing on a scale needed to fight Altair, and certainly not in 6 months.
