ITT: ross gets mad about animes

Only found a few shows I really liked.

Sailor Moon (:3)
Chobits (:33)
anddd

Case Closed

all it is is japanese animation. I don't get how this somehow affects its quality. Some anime is good, some anime is bad. I don't get it vOv.

Gurren Lagann is the only anime Ive ever liked, and probally the only anime I will ever watch. I'm not a hardcore anime fan, and I was never really intrested untill DEE showed me ttgl. I don't really have any intrest in watch any others though.
besides from touhou, thats aweosme, and its not a tv show >_>

Generally if I was to be watching this with friends round I'd be a right ol twat. You guys are both arguing a pointless arguement, there are some that think anime is for kids because most of us, including me, don't know anyone 20+ that watches anime... in real life. (My friends and I are 25-26, we may have just missed the fad with anyone younger or anyone else that enjoys these shows)

There's also the guys (including you forumers) that watch the much more mature anime, which I've never seen advertised or broadcasted in england. Unfortunately I'm not going to waste my time familiarising myself with these shows because I'm not interested.

No matter how hard you guys try to make people understand the older side of Anime, most of us will still be stubborn and generalise it for kids. I'm sorry.

I like the art style however. :mech2:

That was more a complaint about the way shit just gets milked dry more than anime itself, although it also means that I'll have people hassling me over anime twice as much now.

Lack of caps generally means I'm either not entirely serious or just tired and therefore liable to be a little extreme in what I post, i.e. go ahead and make some huge statement and not bother qualifying it at all. So far though, what I've seen is basically the results of taking Halo and throwing all the anime cliches I can think of at it. That irritates me the same way it would if they took Halo and threw all the usual American cartoon cliches at it or whatever.

Well, they're more like sitcoms, just they're animated, not live action.

Most have deep and interesting plots, or if you watched shows like dragonball that don't revolve around lil gurlies, you know that everything that happens is fucking awesome. As for obsessing over the preteen factor, I think the majority of men have an edge towards younger women. Maybe I would watch anime too, If I wasn't already fucking a 14 year older. :realsmug:

Besides DragonballGT. That revolved around an annoying girl most of the time. But most Dragonball fans don't like GT because a lot of thing in there are not canon. Anyways....

Dragonball Z changed my life. Nuff said for me. :downs:

Most anime that people watch isn't broadcast in England or America. Gotta download or stream
