Send an introduction to the blade.

"Sending blades" is generally to send blades to screenwriters, directors and producers, mainly because the initiator decides the plot direction, changes the plot of the work, and causes readers to vomit or even be dissatisfied.

Usually, when ACGN works go against readers' wishes and opinions, some people will threaten to "send a blade to the screenwriter (or other relevant people)" to express their dissatisfaction with the plot or other aspects of the work. This statement is also common in fan abuse, that is, the ending is touching and cruel, and at the same time it is embarrassing to accuse the screenwriter.

Generally speaking, there is nothing extreme about this statement, but a diversion and ridicule when looking at the work. For example, "Send Blade" can be a joke for the audience after being abused. But there are also some fanatical groups who really have similar intentions and pay too much attention to this matter. In the endings of some light novels, some readers often resent the author because of their views on the endings, and even say that they are "certain to die". Of course, extremists are a minority after all, and even less serious.

Exceptionally, in March, 1996, when the broadcast of Gospel Warrior in the new century was coming to an end, Mr. Hideaki Anno, the director of this masterpiece, received a large number of death threats from EVA enthusiasts because of the budget of this series of animations and the contents of the last few episodes, including many shocking contents. Although this kind of behavior is extreme, it can also be understood as expressing love for the work, just like the above casual teasing: it is precisely because of the love for the work and the characters created by the work that they care so much about the plot direction that they are crazy.

Generally speaking, Send the Blade is a reflection of the audience's love for the work. What is different from this is "talking about life", which is not the same as the usage of this word, and tends to simply vomit, such as distorting the plot and pursuing novelty. Sometimes the word "send a blade" can be used when the quality of the work is too low, but the usage is still different from "talk about life". The former is simply used to express dissatisfaction with the producer.
