In the show Texhnolyze which took me about a year and half to gather most of the dvds (which I am still missing 3+5 off) I watched a show that got progressively darker and darker. I mean the show ends on really downer. When I watched the last three episodes my friend Omegapaladin over and he decided to actually watch it, though its not his type of show.
After the credits had ended, I decided to check out the extras and look at the trailers. I am a big fan of trailers, and sometimes the ones on the anime dvds are not horribly bad (generally these are the ones that just show the opening to the show they are trying to sell but I digress). An option calls outtakes catches my mind, and I clicked it on.
The like 8 minutes of outtakes had me and my friend in laughing like manics. After watching this show, listening some of the wacky things that were being said was awesome.
So I been re watching Berserk which I suppose is dark and grows darker (though while the show ends on a downer, you do know that the main character is countining to go out and kill bad guys) and then I notice that dvds have outtakes. Which again I look at and found to be hilarious.
I seen outtakes on other shows, but I think the best outtakes are really on those that are serious most of the time, for it just makes the statements even more funny since its completely out of left field. Though that may be love for absurdest humor speaking.

Man things been busy with finals week. However in the meantime, between writing papers I been reading and watching some news shows and comics.
One of them GunXSword is a really spiffy show. Its show that was made in the spirit of Trigun as its a travel log story about a wandering warrior. However, this show is uniquely more dark and yet more insane and parodied filled then Trigun.
A classic example is the villains giving some speech about why they are doing everything for the benefit of mankind, and how they are going to end all suffering and what have you, and then the main character would retort, he doesn't understand he just wants to kill the man who killed his bride.
An intresting twist in that for the most part, the villians are motivated by "high" philosophical goals that in their twisted view will help mankind, and whereas the hero is motivated by one thing, revenge. I would go on but that would spoil the show and I don't have the time.
