Yes Ive had this account for a while years ago while I was experimenting with Flash, but try as I might I sucked and my version was a trial so I had no choice but to give up! Then I saw an art community I figgered I may as well give it another try!

Kekkaishi and Ghostbusters CONECTED?

Posted by TheBurningDonut - July 11th, 2010


Well I'm not totally sold on the anime Kekkaishi.

I will say one thing I find interesting though, I remember years ago watching the Ghostbusters cartoon, I always wondered why the "ghosts" never really looked very human.

I mean a ghost is just a human spirit that has serrated from the body right? So why do they always look so ghoulish and cartoony?

It's interesting watching Kekkaishi because they have a very simple explanation that makes total sense, as the spirit is away from the body it becomes seseptable to negative feeling and eventual transform and become evil, and as they give in to evil feeling they transform and there appearance.

The other think that's funny is the porpoise that the main characters perform are quite similar if you think about it,

Chase ghosts,

Catch ghosts,

And either release them or trap them.

Not only that but the "ghosts" in the two shows are really similar in appearance, it's almost as (In my opinion) as if the two shows could exist in the same cannon.

It's just one's an Asian method of dealing with ghosts, and the other is an American method,

Dosen't it make perfect since?

In Japan they have families working up special techniques and passing it down through generations, while in America a bunch of dudes make machines and slap it all in the back of an old car and charge money for it?

It's just a weird thought is all.

Oh if any has the Full MP3 of the Kekkaishi theme song I would like it!.

wow
you actually made ALOT of sense
plus see how they both capture the ghosts, it's kinda similar
like how they both get sucked in to whatever they're carrying

Exactly!
