Bad series descriptions
« on: May 21, 2006, 12:10:43 am »
I saw another article on lelola.net and came up with a funny idea.  First, in the article she mentions this:
Quote
The Toronto Public Library system has made a four-page flyer listing some of their available manga and anime for teens. However, there's a little problem with some of their manga descriptions.

She adds in pics of the list.  You can see them at http://www.lelola.net/news.shtml dated 5/19/2006.
The best one she puts up is Naruto's which says
Quote
Naruto : "Just like Harry Potter, but with Ninjas!"


Anyway, I then thought, "I wonder if we could make better descriptions... or even better, worse descriptions."  So try to come up with a bad description of an anime, manga, or video game that doesn't say much about it or gets some of its info wrong but still describes it somehow.  Just don't say something like "A series that sucks."

Why'd you post this here? This is a good discussion topic. Is everyone just confused about what goes where between General and Fun & Games?
