I just finished Speed Grapher.

I was satisfied.
I like that one too. The ending wasn't a cop out. I'm always worried about that when I start watching a series.

Me: Here eat this candy.
You: *start chewing*
Me: I had that piece in my butt.
You: I didn't eat it while it was in your butt so it's good.
Me: Okay.

See how one detail can completely change an experience?

But JDub, that doesn't effect the sweet, sweet memories he had of enjoying that candy until he learned it was in your butt... Somehow.

BUT at no point does the most current situation and how it feels ruin how good or bad the previous moments were because it didn't have any effect on it. If it was good, then it was good.
I feel like a moron asking this because I think with a 99.99% certainty you're just going to give me the same philosophical bs but... Okay, but looking BACK on it does it change your opinion in retrospect? NOT the way that you felt IN/AT THAT MOMENT, but the way that you feel about something NOW? For you, is there a difference?

Animefreak, just out of curiosity do you by any chance have Asperger's?

To JDub, no lol. It effects what i know about it NOW that you told me, but not when i didn't know.

it's not bs, it's just philosophical.
However yes, over time my thoughts and feelings to a show can change, but it's not because of what happens later on in the show.
When experiencing something you can be over excited or sick or distracted and come out thinking it was amazing or terrible because of how you were feeling at the time and didn't really think about the experience.
So after i think about it more i can feel differently, and definitely when i watch it again because i always do.

And no i don't. Aspergers is pronounced ASS BURGERS isn't it? That would be the greatest syndrome to have lol.
Why would you even ask that? Because i don't use normal sentence structure on the internet? The reason i don't do that is because school sucks and i'm lazy.

Well thanks for that honest answer, AF. As for aspergers, I asked because at about the time that the matrix and new starwars trilogy were making the rounds I read a psychological article (study?) of some sort that had some interesting remarks to make about the way in which people understand story telling (such as using the same parts of the brain for thinking about, regarding and deciphering the motives/needs of fictional "people" that they do for real ones. Even when those "people" weren't people at all.) and it had an interesting note about how when most people get a badly executed ending to something a number of mental alarms go off and they actually feel the same set of emotions one might feel at a personal betrayal. Various conjectures were made about the reason why this might be as well another curious note. Perhaps owing to their difficulty with reading people in the first place those with aspergers were far less likely to have this reaction.

Hence the question. That's all.
