I think Goku mostly resembles Superman, if any of the western superheroes. Though, I don't know much about the latter, they are quite similar if you take out the fact that one fights with help and the other does not. Or maybe Gohan is more like Superman, as he did try to hide his superpowers and all. But he's more of like a what-if superman let his work weaken him sort of deal.

I see your point. Both are seemingly brimming with power and need foes with super cheap abilities in order to pose much of a threat. they are also space children, get their strength from astral bodies... there's a lot more in common than I originally thought. I do not consider superman the strongest advocate for western superheroes, but dayum there are some really close similarities!

It's an interesting concept you're suggesting for a western superhero done using the eastern style though. I honestly don't know where you'd classify my own project, and I don't have any immediate samples to show you. As for what you've described specifically, anime has attempted to do its own version of Batman in the past but it more or less just felt like Batman with a different style of animation; hardly the sort of thing you're looking for based on the examples you gave.

The problem with japanese people is that they only screw around with their own culture. If you tell them to copy something from another culture, they flip into Asian mode and copy it as precisely as they can. Kung fury is an example of a foriener replicating american media too perfectly. A Swedish director made a movie that feels more like an american 80s movie than anything made by Americans this decade!

Never saw it. Got my work cut out for me.

Ok, saw the mention of Danganronpa 3...

Compared to the rest of the series it was pretty horrible. The ending felt cheap, and I felt like it was a padded out story for something that could have been resolved without the needless killing. Loved some of the earlier scenes, but from about halfway it just felt like it had no substance.

If I'm not careful, I'm going to erupt into a rant. So I'll just say I agree, and it's even worse when you played the games and learn more about all the characters.

I wanted despair, but all I got was... disappointment.
