I find that I get more emotional, and dare I say tearful, when watching a character in an anime/cartoon series die rather than seeing someone die in a movie with "actual" people.
Do you think that this is strange?
I agree with the OP.
My theory:
(1)We subconsciously pick up the fact that actors are faking from their body language. (an animation artist has special attention detail for visual aspects specifically - No "Acting" no unintentional giveaway of Faking)
(2) Voice actors give it their all because they are not distracted by visual aspects. (screen actors don't put enough emotion into their voices)
(3) Animated film often has better songs and background music to match the scene.
I am exactly the same way. With cartoons I feel like it is more real. They aren't actors. They are just cute little drawings in a sequence...
Oh please anyone who didn't cry at Jiraiya%%u2018s death is dead inside. Plus people in movies are just actors.
That's F&^kin Hilarious!!!! Sorry but i couldn't prevent my self from laughing.. i think it's normal, people are so sensitive these days that anything will make them emotional.. The most important thing is to not turn into a drama Queen ;)
Depends on the series. If its a good show thats invested a lot of development into its characters then its perfectly normal. If its Pokemon thats getting you down you got some issues.
But seriously if you can't watch something like schindler list or United 93 without feeling a bit emotional there is something wrong.
