Everyone gives the same stupid reasons.
Everyone gives the same reasons for liking it as well. Your point?
I said EVERYONE gives the same reasons, not just those against anime.
[QUOTE=MrShandavio;21733296]I was speaking in general, the overall tone of this thread is to increase awareness and acceptance of anime, right? While nobody's literally "forcing" me to do anything, the whole thing is useless if I don't care in the first place.
Or, again, if I just don't give a shit.[/QUOTE]
Anime lovers and there fellow narutards always try to make the dumbest shit normal.
Narutards and anime fans are NOT the same.
I don't really hate anime but I don't really like it. If there's a good show and a good plot then it's worth watching, but if it's something immature and boring like Naruto I won't like it.
I just don't like people who get so obsessed with anime.

Sounds like you are.
[QUOTE=Tetsmega;21729748]Because people like you come in here and expect people to enjoy what you do.
Man the fuck up and realize [b]the world doesn't revolve around you[/b]. There is always someone who will hate you, or what you do.[/QUOTE]
And I can say the same about the mindless bandwagoners too.
One good thing about anime is it's length. american shows are often 1h long and several seasons while most anime is 13-24 episodes and 24m per episode.

[QUOTE=LightCybrid;21732667]
Macross and Gundam are the only anime i like[/QUOTE]
you say that when the only additional ones you watched are probably stuff like naruto
Are you kidding? I thought animé episodes were loong.
I guess that's because I don't watch TV regularly anymore.
I like Naruto. What is a quick and painless way of committing suicide?
The two seem to be related, so...
Because a few of fans of it are retarded
Most animes are just fucking slideshows with sound effects and voices.
Only anime I've ever liked is Full Metal Alchemist and maybe Cowboy Bebop.

People can get obsessed by anything and if you're not particular familiar with it you will always perceive it as annoying and weird, natural reaction. If the concept of, say, football wasn't such an integrated part of the western society you'd get bothered/uncomfortable around people having loud discussions about their favorite teams as well. Some people are just like that with things they really like.
Xenophobia is the problem, tolerance is the solution.
[QUOTE=Savaril;21724190]You think One Piece is shitty? Did you only watch the 4kids version or something?
Or are you one of those idiots who bashes something without having ever seen it, because a lot of people assume One Piece is just Naruto with pirates.[/QUOTE]
After episode 100 One Piece went entirely to shit.
Before 100 though it was okay
Sorry for having an opinion good sir
I like anime but a lot of anime japanaphiles, also known as weaboos, are terrible. It's why we will never take it seriously. Also fangirls. Fangirls ruin everything.
My favorites are:
Early Yu Yu Hakusho episodes (later ones are shit), FLCL, Paranoia Agent, Cowboy Bebop, Deathnote (though fangirl ruined as usual), and Blue Gender. Also watching Kaiji right now, that one's really good.

This too, though the definition of Weeaboo has been stretched to shit nowadays
its gay

This. Anime is easy to pick up and drop, short seasons and short episodes. Which is also why there is so much of it, currently airing series get a new episode a week, unlike western cartoons which are seemingly in a permanent state of re-runs.
[QUOTE=DinoJesus;21732826]Because almost all anime is generic in everything, (art, story, etc) sexist, and just plain over dramatic.
for example...

Uhhhh...
No to all of it. Well ok, I'll let sexist go.
Death Note is incredibly humongously overdramatic. But it's part of the charm. But generally overdramatic? Nyeahh... Not more than any show on earth.
And as previously stated, only the dub says that because the ones that does dubs doesn't really know Japanese at all.
[QUOTE=MrShandavio;21732987]No, but when the first few we watch is like that, and we don't give a shit about your shit in the first place, why should we bother to muddle through a ton of your shit to find one good little turd? I mean, I'm trying here, but I just don't give a shit.
That's like saying if you throw your head onto a burning stove and it melts your face, you shouldn't stop there because there are a couple good stoves out there, you just need to find them and stick your face in the fire. Meanwhile your head really starts to hurt and you wonder why you're doing this in the first place.[/QUOTE]
You make it sound like anime is something by itself. As if it's nothing like movies, books, comics and TV shows. It's the same shit. How do you find good shows, movies, comics, books or TV shows? You listen to recommandations or search for something that fits your interest.
That's like saying if you kill a cat and it isn't cute afterwards, then you shouldn't stop there because there are a couple of cute cats that looks cute after being killed, you just have to find them and kill them correctly. Meanwhile your immune system really weakens and you wonder why you're doing it in the first place.

Sorry, but no. Just avoid really badly rated shows or massively hated shows. Also the newer a show is the more likely it is that it is well animated as the general budget seems to be higher for most companies these days so now they can afford 10-12 FPS animation for a long run instead of 6-8 FPS so to say.

Of course I made it myself, with myself.
