[QUOTE=Ryu-Gi;18170353]Never watch the mainstream stuff that gets marketed towards kids. Those shows are always ruined during the translations becuase they're always dumbed down because they assume the kids are stupid. 4Kids is notorious for their kiddied-up versions.
Example of 4Kids stupidity: the anime "One piece" had a particularly violent and dramatic scene altered into a comedy sequence. Soldiers shown carrying guns were replaced with water guns. Cigarrettes were replaced with lolipops that for some reason still had smoke coming from them. Also, the infamous Pokemon Popcorn balls incident where Brock presented the other characters with an Onigiri, which was presented in the translation as a popcorn ball. Later on they started replacing Onigiri with burgers and submarine sandwiches the same way they did One Piece with the guns and the cigarettes.
This is the only time I don't believe in watching the English dub, when they end up altering stuff for kids.
Look for the stuff that the average person hasn't heard about and you'll find much better stuff.
Death Note, for example. After you get past the first few episodes it becomes a rather intense intellectual thriller. (At least until the halfway point in the series, then it starts to actually starts to go flat, but the entire overall story arc is still pretty interesting.)[/QUOTE]
I don't watch the stuff either way, the art actually bothers me beacuse it encourages some people to never ever learn how to draw a face properly.

It seems that you know about a lot of series. Do you know about any animators? Or does your interest not breech that of breasts and violence?
You see, boy, the world dislikes people who keep talking about anime all the time even when it's only one, so they reject even more groups of them, and that would damage your social life and "e-life" severely, so it isn't wise to join them.
And that's coming from someone who also enjoys anime(not a otaku/weeaboo, but I enjoy some), so think of it.

A lot of people never do.
Why do you think so many animators make their characters into animals?
It's not because they're furries. It's because animal people are easy as shit to draw.
OP is an idiot for posting an anime thread in General, especially when one already exists in Fast Threads.
Not to mention anime threads always get trolled hard in GD.

Except those people chose an easier style for budget/other reasons, they know how to draw real people otherwise.
Basically, you're supposed to learn how to draw regular people before developing your own style, but some people just jump straight to anime.

Yeah, that's my point.
Oh, rate me bad reading then.

Holy shit.
The closest you will ever get to that maid girl is you dreaming of your big fat anime face raping her with your gigantic blurred sword penis while going o ohhoo oh eu quietly
[QUOTE=Ryu-Gi;18140319]Like I said, I'm not THAT much of an Otaku, so I wouldn't know anything about that.
Bah, those old things? I was in little league, and later joined a soccer team when i was younger. Why? Because I felt that because I'm a guy meant I had to like sports. And everyone got a trophy at the end of the season regardless of how well they did, because hey, we were all little kids back then.
I hate sports now.[/QUOTE]
how can you hate sports?
No, Don't do it, please don't.
Also, my school doesn't have such thing as clubs.
so why isn't it just called anime club?
[QUOTE=IagainstI;18173324]so why isn't it just called anime club?[/QUOTE]
It's because they think they'll look cool and stuff with such name.
There is only one way to deal with weaboos.

I think OP actually IS in Japan... an American anime club calling themselves "Genshiken" would require them to have decent taste, which is extremely rare.
So all of you calling him a weeaboo are doing nothing more than making yourselves look like fucking morons. Good job.

Erm, I really doubt that, I hope you're not a weeaboo too, since that would sully Brian's awesome name.
