Is it wrong to have emotional feelings for a fictional character?
I'm not just talking about "waifu" (anime wife or w/e), but feel free to give your opinions of that type as well.
Is it wrong to cry when a fictional character dies? Is it "sad" (like lol what a loser) to be depressed when your favourite series ends, as you'll never be able to see more of the characters in it?

No It's wrong to have feeling for a Necro bump tho

No, I get boners for them all the time.

Fiction wouldn't work if you didn't see the characters as people on some level.
-
No, I got that way with the ME series.

No Everyone is allowed to love me

2 RepliesHell no, I cried like a baby when *spoiler if you haven't completely read the Inheritance Cycle [spoiler]Oromis dies.[/spoiler]

Nope, that's the authors/writer/creators intent is to create a character that you can feel connected with, and if said character dies, and it registers on an emotional level, then they've done a good job. Or you're a 5 year old.

I have strong emotional feelings for my waifu. I'm glad my girlfriend understands.

No. It's the only reason anyone cares about fiction at all.

2 RepliesNo, not at all. I was a bit sad when [spoiler]Itachi died in Naruto.[/spoiler]

Edited by A 3 Legged Goat: 1/26/2013 3:50:32 AMIf you do then that means it's well written. I was a bit depressed at the end of the first FMA, and I was kinda saddened at the end of Brotherhood (sad joy if that makes sense). When I finished Shakugan no Shana, I decided to watch it again and then another time after that because I didn't want it to end. When this happens, you can assume two things: The work is well written, or you have no life. Or both.

I'd say no, after all, that is the aim of a writer.

Not at all friend. The entire point of having a fictional character is so you can on some level relate to them and/or their story, and honestly, on some level we do see them as people with their own troubles and hardships. It would actually be weird if you [i]didn't[/i] feel anything towards them.
-
Well written fiction will make you get attached to the characters. There's nothing wrong with it.
-
Not really, it just means the story or characters were very well written. Now if you go to the point of obsession or worse...then it may be a little off.
-
No, it's unusual not to.
-
1 ReplyI think that's kind of the point.
-
Of course not.
