Let's face it, the main point of these shows is to sell toys to children; literary values are gonna come second. It's al one big money-printing enterprise. Of course, good plot and good morals are integral to keep the children watching and the parents from complaining. And considering how they're pumping out these shows by the year, there'll be some misses. Also, good plot can contribute to good toy sales (I think?).

Take Ghost for example. Friendship is a nice trait and all, but it won't give you superpowers in real life. And the whole 'human potential is infinite' is nice idealism, but ignores the realism of external factors, such as whether or not humans are actually willing to work together to achieve said potential, whether or not an asteroid might suddenly kill us all before we reach said potential, whether humans actually have infinite potential given our inherent limitations whether it be physical limitations or moral defects, etc. etc. and so forth.

I do admire the show for its tasteful handling of Fumi and her death, however.

What kind of fanfiction reading is this? Link to a video or something?
