Why is it so difficult for Japanese people to write an "evil" character? This is too cringey to watch.

Why does she try so hard?

I got you covered f a m

I almost feel sorry for her.

>evil
I don't think you quite get her.

U mad m8?

She looks fucking nuts, not evil.

I've never seen what anime she spawns from, but I can tell what crazy looks like.

>evil

>what is Freeza

FROM MY POINT OF VIEW THE GAMBLING IS EVIL

ty for the shinoa

>but I can tell what crazy looks like.

Trust me, actual crazy people don't talk with their tongues wagging out of their mouth like that.

This show has too much fucking explaining. DO THEY REALLY NEED TO EXPLAIN THAT GETTING SHOT IN THE FUCKING HEAD IS A BAD THING?

Why are Sup Forums memes so great?

It's being broadcast in America. They need to make sure their audience doesn't imitate them.

No, apparently it's survivable. She contradicts herself a few lines later.

Not evil, she just wants to COOM

>cringey

Pretty much how I feel about this dickhead.

Everyone praises him as one of the greats, but I just don't see it. He was boring to watch.

Japanese cukgure doesnt have an idea of "evil" like the west does. Its really more about the scale of Lawful to Chaotic. So extreme people or "evil" people will be chaotic. See every JRPG boss ever. They all want to change the world, remake the rules, destroy the current system etc.

Battle Tendency is THE best Jojo part and doesn't have any fucking Dio on it.

>Japanese cukgure doesnt have an idea of "evil" like the west does.
I'm assuming that "cukgure" was your attempt at spelling "culture." And yes, they do have a concept of good and evil. Stop being retarded.

>cringey
>>>/leddit/

Fuck off.

>Japanese people
It's one author and she's pretty much like a Quentin Tarantino character so why can't Americans write a good "evil" character who won't make leddit cringe?

I didn't say they didn't you little retard, I said it's different from the west, which anyone who has put any modicum into the study of J culture should know. Good and evil are not as important as lawful and chaotic in Moonland and if you think otherwise then you're uneducated or an idiot.

OP's choice of character is retarded to illustrate the point because she was never supposed to be evil. But in general it's near impossible to write a good evil character because evilness is not a real character trait. Going out of your way to make the world a worse place against your own interests is basically just bad writing. And as soon as you make sure that the results of the character's actions actually reasonably in that character's interests (for reasons other than "for the LULZ"), that character is no longer just evil, just like a company competing with yours is not evil. Their interests are just opposed to yours, and they are using free market techniques to come out on top.

>lawful good
>chaotic good
>lawful neutral
>etc. etc.
You appear to be confused. These aren't Japanese concepts. They're D&D alignments.

>Going out of your way to make the world a worse place against your own interests
You have never seen an evil person if you think they would take an action that is AGAINST their own interests.

Keep reading.

That's because if I start getting into the semantics of the way Japanese culture and language classes good and evil it would take a paper, so instead I went for concepts that goblin weebs like yourself can understand. I am legitimately sorry that you couldn't and hope for you swift recovery.

悪 isn't hard to write what are you talking about

Handwriting skills have been deteriorating for years. It's a world-wide phenomenon, but writing kanji in a legible fashion is understandably more difficult than doing the same with roman letters.

The more I watch anime the more I realize how much the culture of Japan shows in said Anime. I honestly wonder if it actually effects it as much as I think it does.


Being an evil person requires going against the grain, saying fuck other people, being, improper, and impolite. All these things are expected in Japanese society so it may be harder to envision it. Get proper background from what you were taught on and given.

The more I learn about Japan's customs the more it seems so isolated in them. Or maybe I just don't know enough about Chinese or Korean customs to say their similar.


Someone like Dark knight's Joker could only be written in a society that has had experience with enough sociopaths serial killers in it's history, that we could mold those elements into a character and give it life.

maybe

Japan never makes completely evil characters, because they don't have the dualistic idea of the world that the west (not only the west though) has.

True. Yin and yang originated in Europe and never really became part of Asian culture.

>never
You need to watch/read more JP fictions.

> describe how seemingly opposite or contrary forces may actually be complementary, interconnected, and interdependent in the natural world, and how they may give rise to each other as they interrelate to one another

Just look at it for fuck sake, there is a seed of each in the other. They are twisting, there is no straight line separating them.

Your point is about a fixed state, not about duality.

...

Because poor writing. They can't fit in a proper villain and develop the character in 1-2 cours of anime so they just make them CUH-RAY-ZEE.

Who said she was evil lol?
Retarded? maybe, but evil?

>"evil" character
she's not supposed to be one you retard

>I have watched 3 anime

Japanese can't do 'subtlety'. At all. I'm pretty sure they don't even have a word for it.

>cringey
Kill yourself

>Kill yourself
Kill yourself.

Because the point of her character isn't meant ot be evil you stupid fuck.

>watching JoJo
Fucking animeonlies. Dio may be simple as fuck (he's from an 80's manga after all) but that's because the part he's in is just as simple as him. Don't fall for the memes, he's not the best villain ever, that's obvious. He works better as a backstory character for the parts where he doesn't actually appear. He's a huge walking meme in part 3, and he's mostly worshipped by nostalgiafags (that's also why he's still so insanely popular in Japan compared to the other villains). Kira is arguably more believable than him. The quality of writing in JoJo gets better with each part and you should read the manga.

Well written 'evil' charicters
>Gendo
>Ritsuko
>the cyber kid from the Brain Scrach episode of cowboy bebop
>The dictator from Here and There, Then and Now
>Various compelling villains from Fullmetal Alchemist
>Any well written gay, transgender, or jewish anime character.

>Dio may be simple as fuck (he's from an 80's manga after all)

You make it sound like older manga were simple speech bubbles for retards, while modern manga is the pinnacle of human introspection.

>Japan never makes completely evil characters,
By definition, evil isn't a gradable adjective. "Eviler" isn't a word. A person is either evil or they aren't.

>cringey
When does Summer end again?

Thanks for your valuable input! I look forward to hearing more of your opinions over the course of this thread. I await your next replies with trepidation.

this is the face of someone who hate human at the beginning

Whoa. All these high quality posts, they just keep coming. Now this thread is going places!!!

There are no Jews in anime.

...

Kill yourself faggot
Ikishima is cute

But they're even the villains in one. And of course that anime's release in west was censored and rewritten to hell and back as result.

Villains are rarely good across all realms of media.

It is a word

...

>thinking Ikishima is evil AND disliking her
Commit sodoku

There's plenty of good villains in the west, especially in film. Not even Johan holds a candle to Anton from No Country for Old Men.

Don't talk shit on my daughterfu. She is not evil.

I'm not that guy. This isn't about winning an argument. Please stop it with your facebook mentality.

Completely evil characters are just characters whose backstory hasn't been delved into enough. Even Satan was once an angel.

Lucifer is just a yandere. She wouldn't be doing anything bad if she hadn't been dumped for some shit upstart waifu.

Who is evil in Kakegurui though? Anyone participating and condoning such a system is at best apathetic and that's not where our main characters are.

The boys.
Beauty is justice.

yumeko is secretly evil

>every batshit character has to lick the tip of a gun.
I hate this, Wow you're so crazy we get it.

how is she evil?

It's Shin Megami Tensei

>Yin and yang
I ain't not Yin and yang expert but I'm pretty sure that's from fucking china.

China is like the Asian Rome. They spread their culture far and wide.

But she ain't evil though.
What's the problem here?

>Watch a spergfest
>Complain about the reactionary nature of the characters

Kill yourself OP

Whats so good about him? he was just an autistic fuck killing people

Johan aside I also like Squealer(Shin sekai yori)

The only thing cringeworthy here is you, user-kun

When were under the impression that she is "evil"?
She is just a gambling slut that gets off from gambling.

I think it's more because she is a tryhard edgy sperglord

Japanese are too pure to write evil characters. They are a race that is pure of heart.

>Cringe

Can't articulate your thoughts huh? Squaaak parrot squak

Why do you think she is evil?

squealer was the good guy though.

>cringey

Yeah, that was the word I was looking for while watching the new episode. This character single handle ruined the episode and almost made me want to drop the series. I can't remember the number of times I had to pause the video because of her, and her stupid personality and behavior.

My man!

I think what made Battle tendency great was how perfect our lord a saviour, Sugita, was for joseph

...

Because she is not evil at all
>What is QB

how was this guy called?

bimyouni?

You have problems.

>You have problems.

Yeah, with that shitty character.

Is Griffith a villain?
