What a constructive approach to your own existence and your surroundings
Yeah in that sense.
Heh heh! I was being flippant, dear. :D Perhaps you were as well, but it can be difficult to tell with this internet malarky, hey? Maybe I should use more emoticons? Hmm...
My response was a result of my whimsical playfulness, triggered by your ambiguity, by building further on the structure of ambiguity created. I’d like to blame my weary self; weary due to being in the progress of changing my day rhythm, but that is naught but an excuse, that I don’t take seriously… There was though no intentional ill-will or some such targeted at you.

The potential of the medium of anime rocks! Josei and Seinen ftw ... okay Josei is vertually nonexistence within anime, but that is just the cruel world order's fault .... ;P
What makes anime have more potential than other other form of medium?
I’ve not said such a thing ;P
I ‘m fond of my creativity hence my interest in speculative fiction; which spreads to different mediums as, for instance, crps and anime, moreover it is one reason, albeit amplified by others, for my fondness of Nietzsche.
Another thing I like is diversity.
Concerning the anime scene contra the jrpg one, equating these two is unfunded. The anime scene in Japan have a functioning and thriving genre, senien, aimed at a target group from 18-30+ (which of course doesn’t rule out decadent aspects per default), backed up by a senien manga scene. The adult PC scene in the west is worse of within mainstream, i.e. ruling out the indie scene, in this regard of having a niche dedicated to adults which will be capable enduring and deliver in the long run. Any adult scene within consol jrpgs are nonexistence, as far as I know, regardless it would be limited by its medium - the consol.
The anime Berserk, as has been mentioned is a work of sheer brilliance, its dominating theme of, a specific flavor, of elitism is eloquently brought to the fore implicitly thought-out the anime and perfectly rounded of in the end in an explicit manner. Primarily achieved by the psychological development of the protagonists’ / antagonist, i.e. by all the factors that make up who they are and what they become, plus, coupled with the setting, the very reality, they’re part of – munch.
