What do you think of Anime?
« on: September 15, 2009, 06:58:12 pm »
I'm a person who likes to watch anime. I've seen many in English and some in Japanese, and because I know some people really hate them, I would like to know why. Are you willing to share why you hate or like them? Can you remember which one(s) you've seen which caused you to either love or hate them?

I used to really like anime, but I got bored of it. My boyfriend used to like it too, and the reason he doesn't like it anymore is the reason most people don't.
A lot of it is seriously perverted. All of the girls have huge *bleep* and they often wear crazy skimpy outfits, and in every series (from Naruto to Pokemon to Hamtaro) there's that one pervy womanizer character. What's up with that? Even shojo manga often has panty-shots and stuff in it. It's so unnecessary.

I don't care for it.  The fiqures are too stilted...seems only the mouths move.  Doesn't seem as much of an art as the old cartoons. Also, usually the sounds are just irritating!

I can't imagine what would posses someone enough to sit around and draw that stuff, but to each his own.

I hate anime too...no offense to anyone but the people IVE met that like it are all weird or serious dorks. Haha I used to babysit this kid, and his parents liked anime so he was allowed to watch ANY anime show, no matter how violent or sexual, but they forbid him from watching spongebob!! they said it was violent or something...come on, spongebob!?!?  :angry7:

I really tried to get into anime several years ago, but then I realized I really shouldn't be trying so hard to enjoy something.

not much of a fan, but don't mind looking into seeing more videos of that genre

Are you willing to share why you hate or like them? Can you remember which one(s) you've seen which caused you to either love or hate them?

i'm pretty anti-anime for the most part, but i have to admit that very few people have bothered to ask me WHY i dislike it so much ;p i don't think there's a particular point that i decided i disliked it.. it wasn't because of a certain show or anything.

..i don't like the style of it - the appearance, i mean. i think it's kindof.. ugly? and all anime i've ever seen is really hard to follow (FOR ME it is anyway ;p) i can sit through an entire episode of inuyasha (bear with me, my spelling is probably wrong on that one) and not be able to tell you what it was about. it's hard to explain. anime just doesn't hold my focus or something?

Yeah, I'm sure that's why your boyfriend doesn't like it any more.
Nothing guys hate more than half naked girls with big *bleep*  :icon_rr:

I've only seen a couple.  I like to draw them more than anything.  I love how cute some of them are with their big eyes and pony tails.

Not in every series, but it does happen in some anime with a bit of humor. There is no prevy womanizer in series such as Ronin Warriors, or Gundam Wing.

You sometimes have to wait a few episodes before things are explained but I can understand. There is one anime I watched which was confusing and it doesn't get explained until the last episode.

Inuyasha and his friends are searching for a demon they want to kill for their own reasons. For Inuyasha, a woman he once loved was killed, Miroku (wears blue) wants him dead to get rid of a curse placed on his family, and for Sango (carries a large boomerang), everyone in her village was killed.

Tbh, I'm not sure why it's so good and talked about. I can't really say I don't like it though, as I haven't ever watched it.

I used to really be into it. But now people take it to the extreme by dressing up as characters and stuff daily. I used enjoy dragon ball z until it started getting extremely popular.

I myself am not too much into it, but my bf watches it religously and I have a conure parrot who's absolutely obsessed with Naruto!  It's halarious to see her watching it and wistling and cooing at it! LOL  ;D
