What I'd like to get is a list of Anime Archetypes that the audience would like to see discussed.
[Aside: For values of "discussed" that include being trashed by a grumpy old guest who has been becoming increasingly critical of certain archetypes/tropes over the years. But I digress.]
Once I have that list from comments posted here* I'll try to come up with the following for each:
- Do I think it is an archetype (references to TV Tropes may be made)
- The first usage of it that I can recall
- The best usage of it that I can recall
- Whether or not inclusion is generally a good thing or a bad thing
- Wherther or not inclusion is enough to drive me away on principle
Volunteers to help discuss would also be welcome. :)
*And, yes, that is an utterly shameless** plug for comments.
**What? You thought I wouldn't stoop to that? Bwahahahahahaha. Cough. Splutter.
