It’s figuratively cutting your ability to do evil from your body. Left hand evil, right hand good, it’s why nuns used to get upset about left handedness.
It worked for Finn
Yeah look at RoboCop he’s all prosthetic, never lonely
You may not like it, but this is peak male performance:
Until suddenly, one day
its the other way around. the loniliness leads to overuse which leads to the need for a prosthesis.
Not to mention all four of these guys are pretty lonely. Except Big Boss, he kidnaps new friends when the old ones run out
*Venom Snake
Maybe this isn’t a good idea.
They might be into something
Or could go with Both arms
Maybe also both legs?
Insert crusty Anakin here
Well, more like a symptom given these examples…
Don’t forget our man Jet!
Man, I miss Cowboy Bebop. What an amazing anime.
I bet someone could make a good live action adaptation. It’s too bad NO ONE has ever tried.
Seriously, I liked the Netflix serie, it was pretty good, maybe too much julia/vicious compared to the anime, but characters, acting, VFX, fights/stunts, were pretty good.
I disagree. I stopped watching when Spike was scoped in on Vicious and didn’t kill him. Anime Spike would’ve never let Vicious go because this is how Spike reacted when someone mistook him for Vicious. You don’t get that pissed off unless you really hate someone with every fiber of your being. I had other issues with the live action as well but I’ve clearly wiped my memory of its existence. Only the Spike thing remains because it’s the reason I stopped watching.
Overall I really enjoyed it as well. But I never went into it expecting it was going to be the original like a lot of others did. Most episodes were solid. The cast worked off each other very well. It’s clear there was a ton of love that went into the whole production.
However, one of my biggest complaints was that Faye’s character leaned way too far into tomboyishnes.
My other huge one was how much of a pussy they turned Vicious into. I appreciated the arc, but it turned HBO so fast. Making Julia the mastermind and turning Vicious into such a snivelling little prick was just bullshit.
Then there was Ed…
I didn’t enjoy watching the netflix series. It’s true on technical aspect, it’s well done. Where there missed the mark, in my opinion, is the atmosphere and the character development. This is why the original anime is beloved, there isn’t much action going on in the anime for today’s standard. But the atmosphere, world building, trying to understand this solar-system-wide “far west” society, what happen to earth and what the characters have been through in there troubled pasts. The anime gives you the right amounts of hints to tickle you curiosity and let yourself imagine possibilities, theories… In one word, the writing of the netflix live action lacks the depth the anime offered.
Netflix did one.
No they didn’t. 🥲
I enjoyed it even if you didn’t.
oh come on. Women can’t be so different that they don’t want a badass prosthetic arm.
Case in point, Noble-2
And Billie Lurk from the Dishonored DLC!
That’s her right arm, not left. Are we onto something here? Is the true gender divide that men want a badass left arm and women want a badass right arm?
Edit: I just checked and Noble-2 (from Halo: Reach) has their right arm as the badass prosthetic too.
Dishonored mentioned in the wild? It’s a good day
Don’t think any of these characters are exactly role models.
And one of them is brainwashed into thinking he’s someone else.
Running around the local grocery store with a cardboard box over my body so I can hide from other people isn’t something to aspire to? Color me alert and shocked, at about 99.99% approximately.
IDK about the rest but Gutz is pretty good.
I can’t do it with a single hand, and I’m afraid I’ll rip it of with my prosthetic hand.
