Talk:Story arc

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Dramatic structure: a change?

This paragraph asserts that the function of a story arc is "to effect a change" in the main character(s). Any support for this? It seems to me that an arc can just as easily work as just a longer version of a standalone episode, where the basic situation is eventually restored. Ccoll 19:04, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Anime?

Has there been anything published that explains why anime is more likely to have story arcs than Western animation and live action shows? --NE2 06:11, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

Apparently someone who helped write this article loves Naruto. You would think something like One Piece which is MUCH longer than Naruto would be made an example of. --71.232.134.189 22:50, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
