Anime where main character has to hide somewhat dangerous superpower from peers (but they eventually find out)?
<> Code Geass <> On August 10th of the year 2010 the Holy Empire of Britannia began a campaign of conquest, its sights set on Japan. Operations were completed in one month thanks to Britannia's deployment of new mobile humanoid armor vehicles dubbed Knightmare Frames. Japan's rights and identity were stripped away, the once proud nation now referred to as Area 11. Its citizens, Elevens, are forced to scratch out a living while the Britannian aristocracy lives comfortably within their settlements. Pockets of resistance appear throughout Area 11, working towards independence for Japan. Lelouch, an exiled Imperial Prince of Britannia posing as a student, finds himself in the heart of the ongoing conflict for the island nation. Through a chance meeting with a mysterious girl named C.C., Lelouch gains his Geass, the power of the king. Now endowed with absolute dominance over any person, Lelouch may finally realize his goal of bringing down Britannia from within! <> Guilty Crown <> Ouma Shu is a 17 year-old boy who mistakenly obtains a rare and great power. He can use this power, "The Right Hand of the King," to extract "voids," or tools/weapons that are the manifestations of peoples' hearts. He has been rather shy since a childhood tragedy, but both his personality and life change forever when he meets a girl named Yuzuriha Inori, a member of the rebel group called "Funeral Parlor," whose members seek the restoration of self-government in Japan via the ousting of GHQ. <> Devil Survivor 2 <> Mysterious invaders called the Septentriones arrive in Japan and begin attacking the country on a Sunday. To fight back, the heroes in Devil Survivor 2 signed a pact with the devil to become the Thirteen Devil Messengers. The Septentriones show up at least once a day and you have a time limit of seven days to defeat them. <> Densetsu no Yuusha no Densetsu <> Ryner Lute is a lazy student of the Roland Empire Royal Magician's Academy. One day, the Roland Empire goes to war against their neighboring country Estabul, and Ryner loses his classmates in the war. After the war, Ryner sets out on a journey to search the relics of a "Legendary Hero" at King Sion Astal's command and finds out that a deadly curse is spreading throughout the continent.
Are there any comics about how terrible "superpowers" would probably be?
Are there any comics about how terrible “superpowers” would probably be?There are a few light mentions throughout all of comic books (the flash complaining about his metabolism, for example), but a good example I could think of was The Boys[1] . This comic dealt with things from several perspectives that’re often ignored in contemporary comics, everything from ordinary people being collateral damage in super battles:To people discovering their superpowers in terrible ways:It’s a very dark series at times, so I wouldn’t recommend it lightly, but it’s very interesting and won several awards, including an Eisner[2].Another comic that deals with day to day problems heroes might have (such as how heroes can get their name out there, or get sponsored so they can live off of being heroes) is Empowered[3] .This is one of my favorite comics, and you have to be ready for some silliness, but I do recommend it for just about anyone (warning: there's no nudity, but there are adult themes). The heroine deals with everything from being treated as “low-tier” super hero, to dealing with internet exposure of her weakness.Sidenote: Found a neat picture of the flash “dealing” with his metabolism issueFootnotes[1] The Boys (comics) - Wikipedia[2] The Boys (comics) - Wikipedia[3] Empowered - Wikipedia
What are the top 10 anime I must watch before I die (do not include the famous ones)?
Not sorted by rank. Some aren't even proper anime just genre suggestions. I think the most important thing is opening your horizons. 1. Haibane RenmeiThis is a stunning psychological series about what happens after people die. 2. TsuritamaA slice of life anime about fishing that fails to disappoint both with characters and the stunning art. 3. BakumanFor all us anime fans, two dreamers who want to draw manga! Shows you a lot of insight about the industry and has a very humane feel. Wouldn't miss this. 4. MushishiA calmly paced show following the main character and his journeys. A rare gem with darker undertones and a pensive nature. Watching it is almost like meditating. 5. Paranoia AgentNot a lot of people have gotten into this mystery of a kid and the two detectives that chase after him but once you do there are no regrets. It has a little bit of everything, including mind-bending trips you never expect. 6.Kids on the SlopeUntil a few months ago, I thought everyone knew about this series. Its the ultimate slice of life that doesn't feel like a slice of life anime. With a beautiful score, excellent pacing, and gorgeous character design a trip to 1966 never felt so real. 7. Something BL - its good to see this genre of anime some time. Junjou Romantica, Love Stage, FAKE - anything works. I recommend this because its a unique side of anime that many people fail to see the merits of. However, if you are willing to give it a go, watching this genre can have you squealing in no time. 8. AnoHanaI don't quite know if this series is popular or not, but one thing's for sure--get the tissues ready. Tragedy. Coming of age. Bonds between people. This series will leave you wondering if you are a glutton for punishment. 9. Steins; GateOne of the best time-traveling sci-fi shows I've ever seen. Plenty of references to Norse Mythology and crazy otaku scenes to keep you inside the world of tropes, but also break that barrier and become something so unique. There is no other series like Steins;Gate. It will rip your heart out. 10. Higurashi When They CryFirst things first--not nearly as cutesy as it looks. This series goes above and beyond capturing the one thing anime never can get quite right - horror. Hope these are "not famous" enough! And enjoy.
