Literary Analysis

I got another idea why the way I see certain titles is different from anyone else.

That is because I learned how do literally analysis. That allowed me to have that unique way of thinking.

The fact that I am a programmer is possibly another...

Literary Analysis was originally created for books. However it can also be used for movies, games and anime.

Certain books have, subtext, hidden messages and other secrets, often expressed through metaphors and other literary tricks. Because of that literary analysis exist to help people uncover these ideas.

Some anime is like that as well. It has hidden meaning to it that only those who understand literary analysis could get.

Some examples of such anime are:

Ghost in the Shell

Planetes

Serial Experiments Lain

Revolutionary Girl Utena

Infinite Ryvius

Mawaru Penguindrum

Tatami Galaxy

Higurash no Naku Koro ni

and the most complex of them all Umineko no Naku Koro ni.

Code Geass is a hybrid anime that you can still get a lot more out of with literary analysis and other forms of analytical thinking.

If you want to learn of this way of thinking then, I think, Planets is good for the beginners since its ideas are easier to understand compare to other shows.

May be you too can wake up from 'the matrix'.
