Bad mistake

katikatYesterday, I made a bad mistake. While searching for some informations about Peacemaker Kurogane and Prince of Tennis I wandered into the muddy waters of fan sites. Baaaaaaaaad mistake, a very bad one. Never in my life did I come across of so much character bashing. The fandom of PoT is really horrible in that way. Fans complained about the lameness of the anime and praised the quality of the manga. The manga is obviously much more cruel and the characters much meaner than in the anime. If they measure the quality of an anime by the meanness of its characters, I will happily keep watching the "lame" ones.
And thus, I made a decision - never again will I take a part in any discussions in MLs, LJ comms or forums. I unsubscribed from all my GW and other mailing lists and kept only the fanfic-searching ones.
To avoid the bad aftertaste in your mouth, it's better to stay away from any and all fandoms :(

[SPOILERS WHEE!]
Off the top of my head, Jyousei lost in the tournament before they faced Seigaku so they didn't appear at all in the manga. Another team from Midoriyama school had matches with Seigaku. Then in the Rokkaku matches, Aoi never faced Echizen; instead it was Kaidoh who had a match with him. Kaidoh got hurt... don't remember why at the moment but he was bleeding a lot from his head and used his bandana to try and stop it (of course he wouldn't forfeit from the match). And er, Sanada (who you will see in a bit) is actually more violent because he believes in punishing people who lost (kinda like Regulars getting dropped in Hyotei). He's like really traditional or something, but the form of punishment he uses is backhanding people across the face. >.o And oh, Tezuka went to Kyushuu (I think?) instead of Germany. Well he stayed in Japan, that's for sure. XD;;
Yes I ramble. *dies*
