That's actually a cool plan.

There could be no crime in Gotham and BatMan would retire.
Years later he no longer has his athletic abilities or fighting
skills and can be killed easily, then crime can return.

Joker doesn't actually want to kill the Batman though.

Any other criminal might say its a good idea

wait what? joker doesnt?
User avatar #77 to #39 - bushingenna (08/21/2013) [-]
The joker's whole purpose in crime is to prove that anyone can be driven down to a point as low and savage as himself. His ultimate way to prove this is to have Batman, a hero sworn not to kill anyone, kill him. Killing batman would mean his purpose cannot be achieved.

Batman is Joker's raison d'etre. Without Batman in his life, he has no drive to commit crime. Read Frank Miller's "The Dark Knight Returns" or watch the two part animated movie of the same name for more.

Very true...Think about it...Without Batman...he has no real purpose in life (not that he ever really did to begin with) yet, like he said in "The Dark Knight" Batman completes him. They are like Yin/Yang. Can't have one w/o the other....just wouldnt be right. Everything Joker does is for attention and just to prove that he can do it. Batman is quite possibly the only person sane enough (and I use that lightly) to be able to give the Joker any real challenge. Plus he keeps the Bat in check. Think about it...with all the **** he's done, Bruce could've easily killed him anytime he feels like it (and vice versa) but Bruce reasoning is that the Joker keeps him from losing control...If he finally lost it and killed him...whats to stop him from killing the rest of them?

There was some anime a while ago that had this idea. The villains also funded tons of orphanages, hospitals, and homeless shelters. The idea was to make the human population so healthy that there would be massive overpopulation all around the world. Tensions would rise, which would lead to nuclear warfare which would obliterate life on the planet all according to the bad guy's plan.

One of the good characters turned out to be a man who bombed orphanages and hospitals, which was actually a good thing in this case.

Hey man, please tell me if somebody found it. I've been looking for it the past 10 minutes \, but I can't find it on google. Do you know how long ago it aired?
User avatar #78 to #40 - zafara (09/21/2013) [-]
YES I FOUND IT! And yes I know it's been a while

But the manga is Franken Fran, specifically Justice 2.
User avatar #79 to #78 - crazyolitis (09/21/2013) [-]
Thanks man.
User avatar #80 to #79 - zafara (09/21/2013) [-]
Yeah, I know, it's been like a year hasn't it? Sorry it took so long. I went to the anime/manga channel and had to track you down. I cannot believe that they were able to bring up the entire conversations within only an hour.
User avatar #82 to #80 - crazyolitis (09/21/2013) [-]
Wait, track me down? Like on FJ, just looking through the comments? And what do you mean bring up the entire conversation within an hour?

Anyway, I appreciate the effort.
User avatar #83 to #82 - zafara (09/21/2013) [-]
Well, I couldn't remember your username, but I knew you were very interested and disappointed that you couldn't figure out what it was, and I felt bad that I couldn't help. Once I figured it out I couldn't not find you. But somehow about three different people were able to find our conversations on both the board and on general FunnyJunk. I don't know how they found it. I had asked them if they remembered they conversation, and a short time later they started posting links.
User avatar #84 to #83 - crazyolitis (09/21/2013) [-]
Oh, on the FJ anime/manga board and channel? Damn those guys have good memories. Anyway, tell them that I am indebted to them. But right now I'm going. I'm going to read some franken fran!

Also, a silly question, weren't we talking about an anime, and not a manga?

here's what I was thinking of.

User avatar #85 to #84 - zafara (09/21/2013) [-]
With that amount of gore? It's a manga, not an anime. I don't think they could make an anime out of that manga. Good read though.
User avatar #43 to #40 - zafara (08/20/2013) [-]
Oh, I stopped looking. I know it's out there and that it was a side plot. It may have been D Grey Man, but I'm not sure. There's a chance it was Monster, maybe.
User avatar #44 to #43 - crazyolitis (08/20/2013) [-]
Wait, what do D gray man or Monster have to do with it? They have entirely different stories.
User avatar #45 to #44 - zafara (08/20/2013) [-]
They might be where it came from. No one but you seems interested in finding the anime, so no one has found it. The plot line I'm thinking of may come from DGM, but Monster is a better chance.
User avatar #51 to #45 - crazyolitis (08/20/2013) [-]
Anyway, I've asked the anime board. Maybe they know.
User avatar #47 to #45 - crazyolitis (08/20/2013) [-]
Well, DGM is about some kid with a weapon for a hand, Monster is about a surgeon who has to choose between saving lives, and has some pretty ****** up consequences.

But seriously, when was roughly the time it aired? I'm quite interested. I've never heard of such a plot.
User avatar #76 to #47 - zafara (08/21/2013) [-]
It wasn't exactly when it aired. I might have actually read about it on TV Tropes at one point in some category.
User avatar #54 to #47 - crazyolitis (08/20/2013) [-]
... Why am I being thumbed down?
User avatar #75 to #54 - zafara (08/21/2013) [-]
No idea.

User avatar #81 to #28 - zafara (09/21/2013) [-]
Managed to find the source. It's Franken Fran, specifically Justice 2.
User avatar #30 to #28 - zafara (08/20/2013) [-]
I made the comment hoping someone would know. It was such along time ago. I know that's in there, I just can't remember the name. I know it's not Trigun or D Grey Man or anything like that, in fact, I think it was never really popular. And it was really a side plot anyway.
User avatar #31 to #30 - Kadzait (08/20/2013) [-]
dude, hold up a second, zafara like the neopet?
User avatar #33 to #31 - zafara (08/20/2013) [-]
Year ago, my parents wanted to teach me responsibility. I was too young for a dog, so they made me get a Neopet account. I should mention that they believed Pokémon was too violent for kids, and I was never allowed to really watch TV, although I did see some things on there. I never told them about the Neopet Battledome, which is the closest I ever got to a Pokémon battle.

But yeah, my name is Zafara, the species name for a kangaroo dragon cross.
User avatar #27 to #26 - smokingman (08/20/2013) [-]
Source please.
User avatar #86 to #27 - zafara (09/21/2013) [-]
Don't know if you're still interested, but it is Franken Fran, Justice 2. More of a little story/side plot.
User avatar #87 to #86 - smokingman (09/21/2013) [-]
Heh, quite a while since I asked that.
Of course I'm still interested, it sounds great.
Thank you very much!
User avatar #88 to #87 - zafara (09/21/2013) [-]
You're welcome. When I first asked, I never imagined that so many people would actually express so much interest in it. I couldn't just leave everyone hanging, so I had to find it.

someone would probably take up the reighnes and be the next batman he could still train someone up. IE robin or batgirl if she makes an appearance
