There can be slash of anything, OP. As long as it has two or more* characters of the same gender, seriously, anything.

(Anonymous) 2010-10-30 09:08 pm (UTC)(link)
... what is this mythical Touhou slash, anyway? Is it genderbend, or something worse...?

[identity profile] vethica.livejournal.com 2010-10-30 09:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Rinnosuke slash, exhibits A (http://danbooru.donmai.us/post/show/691651/), B (http://danbooru.donmai.us/post/show/671853/), and C (http://danbooru.donmai.us/post/show/113334/).

...yeah idek either.

... oh Christ how did I know one of them would be Unzan. e_e

(Anonymous) 2010-10-30 08:46 pm (UTC)(link)
They're five single men who live together and hang out in the hot tub a lot (or used to, anyway). Of course people are going to slash it.

[identity profile] pts.livejournal.com 2010-10-30 08:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Don't be naive, Anon. There is slash of everything, always. As long as there are two fictional dudes, there will always be a woman who wants those two dudes to want to fuck.

Man, I'm with you on the horrific thing. I would love that series 9000% more if there was a version with cheesy pixel censors over the gore. It's fucking funny but also majorly freaks me out.

You want is odd is that the one and only censor's note Brendon & Tommy got was for the sex in the Thunderhorse video in the 1st season episode "Dethwater". But beheading Murderface, shooting Toki in the mouth with an arrown, kicking Pickles' head off by a horse, and splitting Skwisgaar in two were all fine.

Adult Swim has since asked Brendon to tone the violence down and the 3rd season hasn't been as bad as the first two.

[identity profile] twilightedge.livejournal.com 2010-10-31 05:43 am (UTC)(link)
Ah, I didn't know AS asked him to tone it down.

I really didn't like the violence either when I started watching it, so I often looked away but I stayed for the jokes about metal and their silly personalities (coffee is totally metal haha) and the like. =)

But I agree OP, it's just a bit too hard for me to watch at times.

And Charles is one of my favourite characters. =D He's so awesome.

[identity profile] rosehiptea.livejournal.com 2010-10-30 10:30 pm (UTC)(link)
The gore freaked me out so much I never got past half an episode. But my friends who watch it seem to love it so maybe I should give it another try eventually.

(After all, I made it all the way through Elfen Lied...)

(Here's the weird thing - I got through both anime and manga of that just fine, but Metalocalypse freaks me the hell out. I can't even explain it.)

[identity profile] holy-shpootnik.livejournal.com 2010-10-30 09:28 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm more okay with the gore in Metalocalypse, then say gross slapstick in something like Ren & Stimpy or other more "cartoony" cartoons. While the models for Metalocalpyse are leaning towards realistic proportion and such, the gore is fucking ridiculous and cartoony. For some reason if the ridiculousness of the gore/creepy is "synced up" with the art style, it freaks me out, (like Ren & Stimpy, Flapjack to a lesser extent) regardless of how unrealistic or cartoony the style is.

Like, when I watch a cartoon I temporarily suspend my beliefs and conform to whatever set of physics they have in the universe the cartoon is in. And since Metalocalypse is more realistic, the gore looks way more fake and cheesey than if I were in a squash-and-stretch cartoon were shit similar to Knubbler's exploding eyeballs are more common.

...If that makes any sort of sense at all. I kind of stuck at explaining things without getting super long-winded.

Anyway, I can't say much for the slashing, since I never got into that side of the fandom much at all and don't understand it much myself. But I'll chalk it up to a lot of canon gay jokes. (Murderface, I'm looking at you.)

[identity profile] nekusagi.livejournal.com 2010-10-31 03:38 am (UTC)(link)
Pretty much this. It's done in such a gratuitous way that even a squeamish person like me can laugh at how ridiculous the whole thing is- like Halloween prop gore, where it just seems to be intentionally over the top and there as part of the fun.

The whole show is just so over the top and takes everything to srs bsns extremes so that the gory stuff just comes off as I guess what passes for slapstick in that universe, rather than coming off as horrific (which that kinda stuff would be in any other context). And the fact the band seems to find all the death around them cool kinda aids in that whole suspension of disbelief.

It's supposed to be funny? I didn't get that memo.

[identity profile] t3h-toby-chan.livejournal.com 2010-10-30 10:16 pm (UTC)(link)
I kind of agree. I see the humor, but the grisly images are still pretty tough for me to handle.

[identity profile] kinosino.livejournal.com 2010-10-30 11:07 pm (UTC)(link)
I should really get around to watching this sometime, because yeah DAT CHARLES.

[identity profile] imouto.livejournal.com 2010-10-31 12:32 am (UTC)(link)
I always found the gore more ridiculous than anything. Especially when they lampshaded it in dethhealth with Nathan finally taking notice of the fact that they almost died.

[identity profile] dieewigenacht.livejournal.com 2010-10-31 01:26 am (UTC)(link)
The gore is what makes me laugh, tbh. I mean, I'd still love the series without it, but the gore makes it better.


As for the slash, I find it quite easy to slash, though I can't explain why.

[identity profile] http://users.livejournal.com/___flight_risk/ 2010-10-31 05:06 am (UTC)(link)
You're not wrong. Terrifying imagery, even though I love the show and lust after CFO.

(Anonymous) 2010-10-31 05:17 am (UTC)(link)
inneresting.

I like to listen to some metal but I have never watched this show and the entire aesthetic of metal is gross to me. Like, I will love some album but avoid pictures of the album art or people making the album. I feel like it could be something similar.

[identity profile] asthenie-vd.livejournal.com 2010-10-31 06:03 pm (UTC)(link)
hm. The very first episode turned me off when I watched it for the first time, it was just too gorey, and I never ever once enjoyed one of those gross-out cartoons before. But I loved the jokes and it is my kind of music so I just gave it one more chance, caught episode 4 and from then on I loved it. It's gotten so far I even MISS the ridiculous violence in the third season (which is tame. Really, very tame. Hardly anyone dies and it's almost always off-screen now. :/ )

So maybe try some of the less violent early episodes (try episode 4/Dethtroll :D) first until you get used to some of the gross stuff? Because the rest of the show is really worth it, and it gets less violent with each season.

I usually watch the show with three people:

1 of them enjoys the music and is little disturbed by the gore
1 enjoys the humour, hates the music and is little disturbed by the gore
another 1 hates the music, is disturbed by the gore and stays for Charles.

Because no matter what they think of the rest of the show pretty much everyone agrees that Charles is amazing. XD

Having grown up with an older brother who was/is really into metal, I find the show hilarious beyond belief, though sometimes the gore gets to be too much. ANYTHING WITH THE MASKED DUDE GJTDMKD

Though more than anything I realize even that's lampooning the metal aesthetic in its over the top manner. When some of it defies physics, I just laugh.
