In Topic: Time Travel

15 October 2012 - 01:58 PM

I've tought of this before.

You say "travel" does that means that we found a way to travel faster than light (1)
or that we found a way to sustain the ridiculously enormous pressure at center of a black hole (2),
and thus that we somehow succesfully manage take avantage of a wormhole.
And I assume that we take the case where the end of the wormhole is inside and not in an other universe,
where the rules of nature could be completly different than those in our universe.


(1) If we succeed to travel faster than light, we wouldn't need to travel a few hundred million light years away because
Einstein's Relativity tell us that at that moment and with such speed we would be travelling in time,
going in the past, like an Tachyon.
(2) In this case we would need to be at hundred million light years of our planet earth to be able to perceive light coming the eart from that time.
Light would have scatter from the earth making it very difficult to collect precise information.
But in the end if we pass through all those technical difficulties, then yes, we would be able to see dinosaurs or other insteresting points in history.


I hope that this messy response has somehow answered your question. :)


When i think of time travel i think of like a dimension or plane of existence collapsing on another plane of existence and overwtriting it but i dont quite think that coencides with einsteins thoery

Deadman Wonderland is written by a female, but besides that the rest I believe are written by dudes.


yeah thats what i was saying that I have cried or felt emotion more reading manga written by male mangaka then by female mangaka but Fennec was right that wasn't very fair of me seeing as how male mangaka are much more prominent than female mangaka in the shounen and seinen scene and i did pick some very high level talented mangaka so that doesn't really apply to the average male mangaka

That is a green Lantern villain right? Cant say the DC villains in general make a big impression on me, though i quite like Hush and Sinestro. I think Marvel has way cooler villains like Magneto and Dr Doom.


yeah Parallex is the yellow lantern entity that possed Hal jordan and then later Kyle rayner. yea i see what you mean i love magneto i've never been big on Doc doom cause im not much of a FF fan but i like the celestials if you can count them as bad guys

I've been thinking, and I think that female mangaka and writers tend to focus a lot more on emotion than men.

Society kind of has a natural bias and has stereotypes of certain qualities for each gender, such as girls being fragile and prone to emotion, while boys are too tough to cry. This is unintentionally rooted into our brains from a young age, and is reflected in authors' works in more ways than one. Male authors' works show the heroines as overall kind and good-natured, usually with a need to be protected (even if they're supposed to be "strong"), or as super-strong and violent in an attempt to circumvent the stereotype. Also, the big emotional scenes and reveals are a bit "rough", if you get what I mean. When it comes to those moments, I've rarely seen them be "subtle": the main character will yell out or state their determination, or they'll think about it in a large mental monologue.

Females writers, on the other hand, do their best to get rid of the weak and emotionally-fragile female stereotype. In addition, they can connect more to their characters, since they weren't raised to believe that crying is a sign of weakness the way boys were. As a result, the emotions their characters feel more real. This can lead to quiet moments of strength or revelations in large scenes which men have difficulty portraying, such as Edward sympathizing with Envy right before Envy's death in Fullmetal Alchemist, or Allen Walker agreeing to stop another Exorcist who loses control without outright killing him when he sees one of his friends crying, even though there was a chance that many innocent people would be hurt. It can also lead to truly horrifying and realistic insanity—case in point: every character in Deadman Wonderland except for Ganta. They all have backstories that legitimately explain why they've gone off the deep end emotionally, something that can be kind of lacking in male authors' manga.

In short, female authors tend to be better at expressing emotion than male authors, which is why their works have so much potential when it's not a high school romance. Though I haven't read Dorohedoro, I'm wondering if that applies to it too.


i see what you mean but iv'e felt alot more emotions reading manga written by men than by women like deadman wonderland has sad moments but none of them make me want to cry but I've cried because of sad moments in Air gear, Gantz, Tenjou tenge, World embryo and possibly more than that
