I haven't really read this thread, but I just want to point out that that video's ridiculous :p. It's just....Quote:

The author just says: "look, anime character's heads are shaped like this - oh look, the two images of caucasian women that I picked to prove my argument (and which I imply are representative of the vast majority if not all of caucasian females) don't fit this particular mold. These female Asian faces, on the other hand, do fit the mold, therefore most anime characters are supposed to be Asian."
Basically, the video, impressive as the editing may be, hardly makes a convincing argument. =/
True dat.Quote:

Tychus, based on your opinion of what you think of as a "man", maybe berserk is more suiting to you?

It was a pretty good anime with a "manly" main character that wields a giant sword and he kills shit.
Personally, the ones that I like:
Hajime no Ippo (boxing anime)
Ghost in the Shell
Cowboy Bebop
Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood
Berserk
Akira
Code Geass (main character is kind of a pussy, but its an interesting story)
Death Note
Akagi (anime based on mahjong, only the first half of the series though... second half is a bit silly)
Samurai Champloo was pretty entertaining as well.
That pic looks decent.

fyi different cultures have different perceptions of beauty. Our own western culture used to make men wear powdered wigs. Pretty was used as a denotation for men and handsome for women.
That being said I hate most anime lols.
Gradius warned you to stop this discussion. Better hope he doesn't see it.
I actually thought he was quite ruthless. :D If by "pussy" you mean deceitful, underhanded and manipulating others to fight his battles for him, then I agree. But that made him pretty bad ass in my book.Quote:

Lelouche (or dedouche as I like to call him) was definitely a pussy if you mean he never does anything himself and gets everyone else to do things for him. But he IS a man in the fact that he let his best friend stab him to death in the end of the anime so the world would achieve peace (and this guy is freaken 17).
Holy smokes. That animation is outrageous. Looks like they're smoking something before getting to draw this.
Thank God there is manga.
Pain: MY PAIN IS GREATER THAN YOURS!!!
Tails, after pummeling him into the ground with a freaking ROCK: I bet it is.
Seriously: other bodies were taken out with ONE hit. This looks like Terminator, no! Hulk.
