About a show airing that has a blind character as a main .. character.[spoiler]It's funny because there is anime airing right called Dororo where the main character is blind, as he wonders around Sengoku-era Japan fighting Daemons to obtain his body back. When he was born, his father made a deal with Daemons to bring prosperity and rank to himself and the land. The sacrifice being his son, they each wanted a part of his body but a Buddha statues sacrifice saved his life but: - He was blind - You -- His body was .. A mess He was discarded and thrown away but as luck would have it he would be found by and someone and be raised. Saving his life wasn't the only thing the Buddha did. Though he was blind, he could also see humans as gray clouds but also sense daemonic ways (red) and beings of Buddha (green). The story is a relatively sad and grim tale but it isn't without heart. Dororo is not the blind persons name but the kid who's parents have passed and is all alone in the world, until one fate full day they meet and Dororo decides to follow the blind person in his en-devours.[/spoiler] If it's a blind character I've mostly seen them written to have something that they can gain from being blind Like: - Toph being a near master at earth bending - Or the example in the spoiler being, being able to tell the difference between demonic or not. - In kill la kill someone liked to fight and his abilities ranged from being able to see a whole ton. When he was defeated by a crucial weakness, after he forced the sewing club room to make him blind. Because of that hes abilities in being able to see everything was enhanced even further, as ridiculous that is. But does that mean because someone is blind, they should get something to compensate for it? A question that rings in my mind. I think what's most important is having the resolve to make your decision no what chaotic thing comes your way. So if a blind character wished or wanted to follow someone based on their own free will, then it should happen because that is their desire ! >_> <_< Long time since I typed so much. Haha.
