Well you do have to take into account that they're all children. Even adults were breaking under the pressure of the situation. Some simply weren't made to be soldiers.

yeah but there are stupid people in the world that think wrong is right, and right it wrong. So theres nothing we can do. If Aliens came to earth, and we had to work together inorder to stop them to survive. All it takes is 1 stupid person to mess it all up. Even in USA we have a messed up system. All that matters in this country is Money and skin color. If you have those two things you can do whatever you want. Get less time in jail. Dont get treated bad or nothing. If your a cop you can get away with kil,ling people, and the Goverment got your back. No one can snich on anyone in the high ranks in power. Even if there wrong, and if you try and expose them or do whats right. They will do what they can to get you fired or kil,led. Like Marin Luther King Jr, Guess who kil,led him? it was the Goverment. That ordered for him to be As,sissnated, and the same to Malcom X! if you dont know who these people are look them up. But you should get the idea. They hide there mess from everyone! lol

it was something that had to happen

people just dont understand
peace wont be long last if it will be like this continuesly so all we can do is pray and wish for the best

The world is doomed. No one wants to compromise. To have people stop fighting you need them to agree, but everyone wants it there way. Even though the world wants to become a better place you still have conflicting personalities to acomadate for. People believe they need to use force to get what they want, but they don't realize that their opinion isn't the only one that matters. To truely have peace you need to get rid of emotion, but people can't stand for that either. This world is doomed because people realy don't care about others more than themself. The world is lacking compation, but it's a human defalt that can't be changed. Even with three million good people out there, one will care only for himself. I wish people didn't have to die and if I could I would give my life for everyone else's.

Ok, I spent about fifteen minutes wrighting a comment and it just got deleted. >:(
Ok, the guild thing was just to get people to ask their friends to enter and share a simalr idea if they had little expirence on the theme. You don't have to be in a guild though. Now, I think SOA is an anime COMPLETELY ment for guys. Not to be se.xist, it just seems like guys love it and girls don't. The action scenes are great and beautiful to look at, the rest of the series is not so much. I think Kirito is WAY to over powered and has a bland personality. Asuna is annoying as HECK. Together their relationship seems rused and not genuine. Every girl is in love with Kirito, but are some how totaly ok with Asuna taking him. There are way to many plot holes to count, example no one feels pain yet they are constantly acting like they feel pain. They also need time to retaliate, even when Kirito first uses his duel sword ability and is left with one hp Asuna is SO worried though he shouldn't have(cont.)

been knocked unconcious anyway because he can't feel pain. And he couldn't have died because he still had hp. Speacking of dieing, the characters die off before you even had enough time to really get to know them and the characters that stay aren't interesting. I could complain more, but most likely you already hate my by now. You are allowed to have your own opinion on the show and even if it's more guy orientated, that's not a bad thing. Pretty much all the anime I watch is girl orientated. I bet if you watched any one of my favorites, you'd probly think it was too slow and had too many shirtless guys scence/ girl fanservice! XD

My condolences to that guy, and everyone on that airplane

In response to the last couple of sentences of your description:

Those who've seen the truth know the world is doomed. Those who know nothing think it's paradise, ignorance is truly bliss. You seem to have already realized how terrible the world is getting.
It's human nature; conflict is bound to happen no matter what we do. the only thing we can do is postpone the inevitable as there's already too much corruption, greed, and dishonesty in this world. Where ever there's light there is darkness. One cannot exist without the other. And we will be forever stuck in that balance for as long as the human race continues. No matter how we're brought up, there is something that will tear us down. After our time is up. A new light will shine upon the world, only to under go the same cycle. such is life, such is death.

when people get greedy everything begins to snowball

and the sad thing is that only did this happen but people die every day from preventable things and we never here about it

Lights warm, Fire is hot. There both related element. Fire can burn everything if not used right. But it can be a big help if used correctly. But if you abuse it. The fire starts to burn you. There are 3 diffrent types of fire. There is the basic calim fire. Hell Fire and White fire. The light element is only as srtong has how much light you have in yourself. So its not always strong. If you dont have faith in its un-limited power. then it cant help you, your scrwed! :P

We could, however that would be a miracle. The world powers today are all caught up in what they want instead of whats good for all. compromise is a dream. We're so deep in darkness that a little bit of light will not help. Even if all the wars in this world were to be pacified, That still leaves the corruption, greed, and lies. Even if it seems like they're doing good, they're hiding tons of things from you. Did you know that the government actually has a plans to kill off people to scare us into believing that we need protection from them? These "new" viruses and diseases that supposedly come out of nowhere, and the fact that they don't care when catastrophic storms hit the states. Remember katrina? they left people there, and even killed those who tried to leave unannounced. They made up excuses for the simple minded people to believe, all just to keep us afraid and tamed.

It's possible, Which is why there's more darkness than light at the moment, just like there are times where there's more light than dark. I wish it were that easy.. As a 20 year old. I fear the future because of how bad the world is today. with health care insanely expensive, scarcity of jobs, the expensive colleges, and the fact that degrees themselves are loosing value, and immense amount of debt this country is. simply ceasing war is just the tip of the ice burg. We are too deep to try and get out of it, Unless we do something about the government, because they're the ones making the stupid choices. Even still, if we manage to go through with that. we'd have to expect that there will be lots casualties

Re: Thank you :3 i did try my best....but i only used about 60 percent of my power *clenches fist and smiles* lol xD

And I'm not convinced otherwise. Im sure miracles do happen. I've seen some myself. I just don't think that one can happen with all these countries at each other's throats. We've seen and learned about what happened after the aftermath of world, and civil wars. Imagine what that'd be like today.
Children are light. But they can also be dark. people can raise them to be even worse than their ancestors. Children or not, I do not think people in the real world really care. maybe to the ordinary civilians, but to the cold blooded higher ups, children are either tools or sheep.
And to prevent children from becoming fine, independent adults, they get the media to "soften" them. Which is why schools have "Zero tolerance" rules, parks and playgrounds are overly safe, children aren't taught that it's OK to make mistakes and learn from them, instead that mistakes are bad and when you make one, you should feel bad, parents overwhelm their kids with crap that television and magazines feed parents into becoming a "better family." They force all of these electronics and self serving gadgets to young ones, like tablets, iPhones, laptops, and Hi-Def televisions for "Learning" when all it really does is dumb us down and make children sensitive, dependent, and insecure when they grow up, making them easier to be controlled. This is called conditioning. Getting kids into a comfort zone, getting them lazy, and using it against them as age. So when we feel uncomfortable and scared, they dangle all these devices on our heads, and tell us that these devices solve out everyday problems for us when we can do them ourselves, for instance, actually talking to someone instead of going on FB and complaining about how hard it is to talk to people.
(Now I'm not saying getting a 3DS and using this website, or getting a cell phone at age 12 or 13 or anything along those lines is Bad. They're good in their own ways for simply entertainment and expression. Just wanted to clear that up in case of any misinterpretation )

Nowadays, kids freak out when their phone batteries are nearing zero (when they aren't in any danger or in need of the phone), forget their iPod, Facebook has technical issues, and when people have opinions about them because they're raised to think they're perfect and every way and filling them with over confidence, and when they find out how real things are, they break. Fragile as a twig.

My point is, children are indeed light, or rather a lightbulb that has not yet been lit. However they are insignificant in the matter of whether or not this world will be doomed or not unless they have the time to grow up to be a positively influential and productive person, but the media and government is trying it's best to produce the exact opposite of that. Telling us what to eat, what to say, feel, think, and do. And by the looks of it, they're succeeding.

We've only gone over corruption and deceit that surrounds this world, and there's still more that supports how screwed we are if something doesn't change it.

My cousin thought it would be funny to hide it...... ehhh......so annoying...... great picture by the way!

Re: You're welcome ^w^

That's why it's called Subliminal messaging. Getting you to do, or follow something without having it directly said, or seen. resulting from processes of which the individual is not aware. The media is one of the main things people hate, (but the majority live for it) It sends out the wrong message to other countries about us, and at the same time, It has an effect on us. This is why I hardly even watch TV anymore. I mean, I still watch my TV shows. and Anime. (Mostly online) but that's it. I've tried watching what other people watch, Like Reality TV, and "learning" / talk shows, and I can't help but cringe at how incredibly stupid these shows are. yet these show are the MOST WATCHED in this country. If you came to america and watch some of this, you'd get a headache. have you ever heard of honey booboo? I don't know how much other countries are affected by this as much as America is. The Netherlands for instance, you seem like you were raised right, and I doubt your country is as bad as america with the media, yet I haven't been there to actually see. so I can't say. but you did mention the girl with the phone, so it is happening.
I haven't had a phone until I turned 19. I was able to afford it pay the bill regularly. I don't think I'm that crazy over my phone. But I do like to have it just to listen to music. but I wouldn't freak out if I felt it where I could actually get it.
and that's right, few good parents are raising their children that way too. And when I have kids, I'm not giving them expensive tablets at the age of 2, they're getting a book, and an etch and sketch. there only source of gaming entertainment however will be an actual game system, than an ipad or laptop. (Parent actually give there kids ipads for gaming...thats awful XD) and their other source of entertainment will be to go outside and play.
And That's true, however we can't be so sure. We CAN be happier, however, since the media is taking over, the world is catering to those who follow it. Hence people being shamed for "Not being with the times." It's now seen as child abuse when parents spank their children for misbehaving. I don't know if you were disciplined as a child for acting bad or not, But I was and I learned lessons. Anyway, I just hope not following the media will not have terrible consequences in the future.

We have endured a lot, but that was before the world was so connected. Now we have all these electronics, transportation, and communications that bring us together and we depend on them. It can be a really good thing, and a really bad thing. And this is why we are cautious about having a world war 3. because if we do. It will start a nuclear holocaust, which is a complete ( or nearly complete) total annihilation of human civilization. And those who survive will be sent back to the dark ages. Not just the main countries either. the entire earth will be effected by something like that.

Well, let's see...... it wouldn't fit in the toilet.....not in the vents...... not in the laundry...... this is going to be a VERY long search ...... XD

Yep! I'm fine multiple entries, but only 4! I am really excided to see what you come up with. :D

Wait, WHAT!?!? No way!!! I DO have the same amount as you! That's crazy, I was sure you had many more than me! Well, even if we have the same amount I'm definatly not going to surpass you. You must have a least 3 years on me (I don't know how old you are, but I'll asume your at least 16), besides your drawing are actually proportional and closer to traditional anime than mine is! After I get some more years of practice in, we'll both be on 'Weeks Best', I know it! :D
