And I draw just as many comparisons to psychology. Just because somebody's put forth the research doesn't mean that you can't go, "Hey, this sounds like something else I've seen." That's the entire point of literary analysis. You come into my journal, look at my reviews, and tell me that you are "sick of the comparison" because I apparently reference Fullmetal Alchemist as opposed to, say, The Immortal Life of Nicholas Flamel (for the record, I didn't particularly care for the book series). That's like walking into my house, seeing my nerdy collection of action figures, and telling me that you're sick of seeing this particular series that I'm displaying in all my nerd glory.
And so I'm not allowed to dislike something? I'm perfectly fine disagreeing with someone, but I don't care for someone just writing me off because I make a reference to Fandom X or because I dislike something. I've been told that if I don't like the series, to stop watching it. I have yet to actually listen to this reasonable advice because I'm hoping for something I loved to return to me. If my reviews are so disagreeable, why do you read them? What is drawing you to them?
