Everyone wants to be Batman. I couldn't care less about Superman.

I can think of more cool villains than heros at the moment... Darkseid, Brainiac, Lex Luthor, Venom, Carnage, Apocolypse, Magneto...

Anime is too kiddy to have really good villains.

2014 is going to be a good year. More content, more streamlining. Be a part of history!

What Japanese superheroes?

I don't think Ash, Naruto, or Goku stand a chance against characters like Superman, Batman, or Spiderman.

Agreed. Anime don't contain superheros like American cartoons do.

Vash and Alucard could beat the asses off of any American superhero.

Except the Juggernaut.

I've heard of Alucard but never of Vash.

Alucard dressed like Dracula.

No he didn't. But his name is Dracula backwards.

Vash is from Trigun.

Vash probably couldn't even take on Punisher and he'd deffinately be pwned by Hulk since he just laughs off A-bombs.

American Heros FTW, although Black Adam is pretty cool too.

But you really cant compare the two though. It totally different. Anime is more about mysitics (Spelling?) and magic / future stuff. American cartoons is about big ass guys who beat the crap out of everyone. A prime example is the hulk.

In response to Exshinigami05 #23083

The Hulk is a 'bigass man' yes, but Bruce Banner is not. So, that might not be the best example due to the fact that there is a lot more involved.

You can't really polarize it like that. Each is influenced by it's respective cultures, yes, so you'll find more than one in the other. I could be wrong but your tone rather trivializes American superheros which isn't really fair, since you can't ever take things per face value. Otherwise it'd be:

(American superheros|Japanese superheros)
Bigass men beating the hell out of everyone|Effeminate men casting magic and yelling random words

I dunno. Maybe I'm oversensitive and you didn't mean it the way it came out. It's just that a lot of Anime fans tend to bang on American animation (the reverse is true as well) and that has always bothered me because people arguing for either side trivializes the opposition to create and easily 'defeated' strawman.

Huh? Signature? What's going on with that signature?

Superman was cool with me, then I heard that he could turn back time. That shit is just too damn much for the "Man of Steel". He can't be hurt by anything except kryptonite AND he can turn back time. Meh Dont tink so.

As for my favorite superhero....if i had to name one it would be....I dunno.
As for anime...Alucard rocks
and favorite anime Villain i suppose would be, Paladin anderson and TETSUO!

This one time while transcending simple physical space...

Depends on who you ask. Official comic book canon, he can't turn back time. you can't turn back time by making the world rotate backwards.

So based on what you say. In the comic book he never turns back time? One more thing that had me questioning the truth of what my friend says about batman killing superman at one time. My friend states that batman killed superman at one time with kryptonite gloves. I find it possible but true?

Not in our reality he wasn't. (to the best of my knowledge)

Besides, external exposure to kryptonite wouldn't do much. He was almost killed by green arrow with a kryponite arrow head, but again, this was not Earth 1.

Actually, Superman was going to be invincible. Kryptonite was added later to give the voice actor on the radio a break Smile

Well that was mostly wut i was trying to go for, that you really cant compare the two, cuz they come from two tottaly seperate cultures. I wasnt trying to critize one or the other, just saying that i dont think you can, nor is it far to compare them.
