Tenjô tenge (2004)
4/10
Pointless anime
18 September 2006
A very bad anime. The question I was asking myself while watching this was, why are these kids fighting? There's really no reason given. Just a lot of meaningless violence. I've got no problems with violence in anime as long as there's some reason or explanation given for it. A lot of ridiculous trash talking and drama that's supposed to make these characters 'noble', really just ends up sounding silly. The plus is that the animation is really good. But it hardly makes up for the lack of real story... Sure there's a long back story behind the characters, but it really gives no purpose to the fights. In DBZ the characters have clear motivations. Goku wants to become stronger, always looking for stronger opponents. Vegeta wants to surpass Goku. The kids in this anime fight each other to the brink of death, all for what? I have no clue.
