38 -my tl;dr, let me show you it

(Anonymous) 2008-01-16 01:29 pm (UTC)(link)
I think people need to cut 38 some slack. There is a world of difference between the World Trade center attacks and characters in anime, and it's not like you think.

Yes, it's tragic that people, real people died in the WTC attacks. But how many of you knew someone in there that was trapped or even killed in the aftermath? Those that did, sorry for your loss, but there were a lot more of us out here that didn't know anyone at all. They were all just a faceless, nameless humanity. We had no personal, emotional investment with the people.

What I'm saying is that it's hard to make that connection emotionally to people that you don't know, didn't know, wouldn't know.

However, with any tv show, you see them every week. You watch as they move through their fictional lives and sorry to say, we do end up developing some empathy for them. We care what happens to them, even though it isn't real and we know it. If the writers are good and the actors are good, the viewer develops an attachment. So naturally, the viewer will care what happens to the character.

Think that's harsh or not based in reality, your call. But it's a fact and anime/tv fans here on LJ are not immune to this. Humanity as a whole are like this, in varying degrees.

Get used to it because it's not going away.
