129 OP

[(Anonymous)]

Where is my secret did I imply that having a different opinion was the problem? It's quite possible to be sensible and polite (as you have been) while expressing a difference of opinion.

My problem comes in with the scorn I sometimes feel I receive from a number of people who prefer the manga. What bothers me is that scorn, not the fact that they prefer the manga.

Heh, about two days ago in this forum I said to a FMA secret that the plot of the anime was incoherent. Exactly that word. As far as I know, I was the only one to say that. Soooo I figured you were referring to me.

I stand by the incoherent assessment. After episode 25 I winced my way through the rest of the episodes, because they simply made no sense, and began mining the show for its potential rather than what was actually delivered.

I have friends who prefer the anime to the manga, but not for plot reasons -- they like the way the characters were depicted. They liked the shipping fodder. They like the drama and emotional tension. But they agree with me that the plot is so full of holes it borders on comedy. Our response? Write fics that fill in the plot holes. AU and AT the ever loving crap out of it. Take what is good and ignore what is crap.

As for the Anime vs Manga retardedness -- it goes both ways. It really does. There will always be some shrill person who sounds off on how much better her venue is than the other. But I think the vast majority of the fandom is pretty respectful.

Oh. I think that's coincidence. I've been in the FMA fandom since 2005, and the 'incoherent' thing has come up before. I might have skimmed over your response and caught onto that particular word by osmosis, but my secret was not about you. You're rational and polite; not at all the type of fan that has been upsetting me.

It's mostly become an issue since the new anime was announced, though. Before that, the fandom seemed much more civil in general.
