I've only seen a few episodes of Blue Gender, but the last two make me think it's like the most compelling anime i've ever watched.

It just seems such an awesome storyline, but i think the storyline can be viewed abstractly and make you think a lot about existence.

There's something it made me think about in fact, I wanna state.

I honestly believe that emotion is the reason we cannot ever have an eternal utopia.

When I say I want people to do whatever they want as long as they don't harm anyone else, I mean it. But it's not possible. Even in a world such as that, as soon as some human has a complex, as soon as some human feels a negative emotion and reacts accordingly, someone may at one point be endangered. And to prevent that person from losing their right to life and doing as they please, we have to exterminate the person who was different.

That existence only sooner or later leads to a form of government, and control.

No matter what you do, even if a utopia begins, it will end, and the cycle will continue.

That's the way i see it currently, anyway.

Depends totally on your spiritual beliefs. If you were a Buddhist, you'd likely feel that once everyone attained enlightenment, utopia would exist - and once any given person does so, it exists for him or her, if no one else.

There's no way to pass enlightenment on to another generation though. It cannot be taught, only reached. So you see, I don't believe it's possible. I'm most likely wrong though, as I am much of the time.
