Why is it that he can hit a 3rd baseman on a frozen rope from 300 feet away, but he can't hit a 12 foot tall catcher from 60 feet 6 inches away?

I mean at least that guy had a noble cause to save the world or something. But then take One Piece, and Ussop's dad, Yassop. Literally just abandons his son and dying wife to go drinking and pirating. Nobody has a problem with this. Ussop revers him.

Maybe not every time, but it's more than common.

Generally in order for the self-sufficient, ambitious, adventuring 15 year old hero story archetype to be set up, it requires absent parents. So they're either dead or they're off doing some other than raising their children.

The problem with dead is it's too final for a lot of these stories that want to squeeze as many parallels and dramatic moments out of the source material as they can. Since shonens love to reintroduce the father as a mysterious and powerful stranger later on in the story they generally opt for some reason why the parents are absent. And sometimes this is a good reason, but often it's just like...damn, you really just didn't give enough of a shit about your toddler kids.

Athena also wasn't really his child she got stuck in him somewhere in the baby eating shuffle some how which is why when she was "born" she actually just popped out of his forehead fully grown and fully armed because Athena is basically older than him.

Uh, no.

Zeus is banging this chick. He talks to an Oracle and she says his second child by the woman will kill him the same way he killed Chronos. He ain't having that so he straight-up eats the bitch. Nine months later he's having headaches and Hephaestus cracks his skull open. Out pops Athena, fully armored.

Ah, yes, that was it.

Hmm, looks like I got some of the plot details wrong. Well, it's been a long time. And that's still a horrible, messed-up father.

@Distant_Rainbow
@Kircheis

The full movie is on YouTube with English subtitles if you want to re-watch/watch it. I would link it but there is nudity AND I'm sure the mods would delete it even though it's been uploaded by the Korean Film Archive (government sponsored) so it's all legit.

Just type in Korean Classic Film Seopyeonje

Edit: Just to add, it's a really good movie

Okay, gotta give it to the School Days guy.

Moegi Inou and Tomaru Sawagoe share the same father. Moegi therefore shares 25% of her genes with Tomaru.
Their daughter, Kagura Inou, shares 62.5% of her genes with Tomaru.
Hajime Inou is 81.25% identical to Tomaru.
Rio Inou is 90.6%.
Risa Inou is 95.3%.
Rika Inou is 97.7% genetically identical to Tomaru Sawagoe. He finally fulfilled his lifelong dream to "go fuck yourself."
Their son is therefore 98.9% Tomaru. He is reborn!

Because Vader somewhat redeemed himself, which automatically makes him better than 70% of the "bad" fathers in fiction.

Genma Saotome was a pretty trash father. He regularly abuses his son, tries to sell him for pretty much anything, etc. It's only humorous because his son Ranma is like a thousand times stronger than him and regularly kicks the crap out of him or outsmarts him.

People like Osbon and Tywin are shit but at least they let their sons have full access to their enormous family wealth and let their children live comfortable lives.

They have nothing on people like Craster who rapes his daughters and leaves his sons to die in the snow for no real reason.
