2008 - The Anime that scarred you for Life! LIST!

[majinshadow]

computer guy/ korukun here (should change name on forum D:) with the list of what you all mentioned and a couple more. some things were taken off the list due to being in a fanfic, epic(or not) endings/points in an FF game or we just never got the name of the series.

reason for excluding fanfics, they are incredibly hard to pinpoint where to find it and it's too easy to scar someone with a fanfic. so anyway, here is the list! with notes for some!

that is the list. if you were there and said one that wasn't on this list then post it in a reply. also for others wishing to add to this list go ahead and add em! this usually becomes my anime to watch list for the year >_>;;;;

ALSO!!!! if you are posting a hentai, please be sure to say so. and if you feel that the hentai is just that wrong, then add a 21+.

enjoy the list folks, maybe there will actually be a viewing of this stuff in a late night panel Next year in 2009.

[Teuvan]

Nice list; seems a lot bigger than I thought it would be. I was the guy that mentioned Mind Game. The panel probably could have easily lasted another hour, even longer if we had any sort of viewing. Perhaps there should be two panels next year: The regular Anime That Scarred Me For Life, and an 18+ viewing panel later on with some of the mentioned titles (perhaps from the year before).

[majinshadow]

my plan is for a 2-3 hour panel for viewing. first half would strictly be all ages or at least 13+ and the last half be 18+.

[makichan]

I'd add Bastard to that list if I were you....... now that's an anime that has scarred me for life.

[Lin]

Heh next day off I get I am gonna start watching these! Thanks for putting up the list!

[RemSaverem]

What's wierd is that a handful of those you listed are among my very favorites in anime
(Bebop, Hellsing, Utena, Ghost in the Shell, the Animatrix).

I've actually never watched Eva because everyone I knew said be prepared for mindtrip. Did finally watch the first ep of Serial Experiments Lain after years of such warnings--and liked it. From a Buddhist perspective it's entirely plausible in the sense that what we are is our thinking, not our body; death is only our thinking leaving our body, and thinking always finds another body to reincarnate into. Why not the Wired? Likewise with Paprika, which I don't think was on this list but I've heard others be tripped out by. In Tibetan Dzogchen (and even in the Bon, indigenous Tibetan shamanism that predates Buddhism's arrival in Tibet), as I mentioned in the Religion in Anime and Manga panel, there are practices of Yogas of Dream and Sleep that aid people to lucid dream (be cognizant during dreams and have agency over their trajectories) and to connect with others in dreamspace, particularly with one's consort (lover with whom one engages ritual).

[superjaz]

this list is pretty big which goes to say all anime wil disturbe some one at some point, all they need it the back ground for it to mess with them

[BigGuy]

I never tried to put together a viewing room for the shows from my panel because I always wanted to have a free flowing organic discussion rather than me talking to the crowd for 2 hours. Usually the parts that are scarring are so because of the context of watching the show up to that point, so showing the whole show would take too long to fit in a panel, and showing a short clip might not convey the right message.
 What might be good to do, if we have more viewing rooms next year(which is very possible) dedicate a block of time in on to the shows we talked about, if you'd like to set that up get in contact with the director of programming and talk with them(Jaki at this time)

whew, that was long.
 I'll run this panel again next year.

[Teuvan]

I'll run this panel again next year.

YAY! And I'll be there again next year. This is one of my favorite panels from the last two conventions.

[NIKO]

I think that list is a bit over-the-top (cmon...DBZ? Pokemon?), but it's worth mentioning:

green green - fat guy gets raped by bear

Wow, I could just BARELY remember this, though really it was what...1-2 seconds of it?  I thought the scene where those guys were stuck inside a sauna was far, far worse than that scene :p.

I don't think any shows have 'scarred' me for life, but a few shows that have just 'disturbed' me are...

Elfen Lied (the first episode specifically..., after that it seems I was desensitized enough to handle the rest.)
Higurashi no Naku Koro Ni (the scene where Rika holds the knife down on the wall and....yeah....)
Bokusatsu Tenshi Dokuro-chan (you have to admit, some of those scenes where Dokuro-chan just wrecks Sakura are ridiculous.)

Even though I was initially disturbed by these (and a few others), in the end they were definitely some of the better shows that I've watched (I would give these particular 3 shows at least 8/10).

PS: And no, I haven't watched Berserk...yet.

[Deviant Spider]

Elfen Lied: the Dog murder scene. That was probably the worst thing Ive ever seen. I cried.

But I still love Elfen Lied!

[koru-kun]

I'd say gilgamesh is a pretty messed up anime. at least the ending got me pretty good. not in a creepy way but in the wtf way.

[Teuvan]

I watched the first disc of that, and hated it. It's actually one of my most disliked anime. I don't remember the specific reasons why, I was just filled with DO NOT WANT.

[makichan]

I'd have to agree about school days... that is one that DEFINITELY scarred me for life >.<;;

at least you quit while you were ahead. I own the whole blasted thing and managed to watch it all. Like I said the ending made no sense. I'm adding it to my trade list next year. lol.

[BigGuy]

I tried watching Gilgamesh when it came out, the story sounded cool but the character designs were so damn ugly I couldn't stand it

[EveofAbyss]

I guess I should have come to the panel if I really wanted to know, but what is wrong with the ending of Hellsing? I personally was blown out of my socks by it, I thought it was awesome. But then again, I like a lot of what is on that list, lol.

i guess some people can't handle incognito or the flooding gates image that seras got.
