5/31/06 - Anime

Maybe I'll take some heat for this one, but I hate anime. I just don't get it. Why is this cool? Why are adult men fascinated with this? It just seems like crappy animation to me. Please keep in mind that I was not raised on comicbooks but do have an appreciation for the tradational old-school marvel and DC comics.
I once saw a piece of anime I kindof liked. That was in Kill Bill 2 I think. Even then it seemed contrite and forced. The whole genre is mind numbing. What are they trying to accomplish?
Take a look at the kids in the pic above. Do they look like any children you have ever seen? They certainly don't look asian. If anime is Japan's great contribution to the world you think they would have imparted more of their ethnicity into their drawings.
The most disturbing part is the amount of porn associated with anime.

According to Wiki, anime features a wide variety of artistic styles which vary from artist to artist and is characterized by stark, colorful graphics and stylized, colorful images depicting vibrant characters in a variety of different settings and storylines, aimed at a wide range of audiences.
I have two responses to that: 1. anime is crap and 2. that description of anime was probably written by a pedophile.
Anime: I hate you.

Bugs Bunny... that was good animation.
Anime... don't get it either.
Anime: Not feeling it.
You're just not doing enough drugs to get it, but w/out those, I agree anime sucks.
Do a bunch of acid and watch it in Japanese. Then you'll understand. You'll understand everything there is you could possibly want to understand.
I'll say and I'm not scared. I sorta like anime. Sorta. On mute. And only certain kinds of anime. Oh crap, I don't know what I want to say but I don't hate it.
I hate anime, it's ugly and stupid. What makes it worse is that there are two dudes who live with me who LOVE Dragonball Z which is probably the crappiest anime out there.
Granted, they're 12 and 10, but that's the crap that's spoonfed to them.
Give me Tom and Jerry any day over this garbage.
I agree with you 100% about cartoon porn -- how is that sexy? I can do this ( o )( o ) -- does that make you horny? If it does...I hate you.
I don't get it: maybe the dirty stuff. I get that and do find that interesting. But the other stuff? Nah.
