[QUOTE=Nintendo-Guy;22140111]these threads are pretty funny[/QUOTE] What do you mean? Also, I love how you put NO effort into that post. Not even a capital letter
why do people care so much what other people like just dont get it
The only Anime that I have ever actually liked was the English dubbed Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex series. Compared to that, pretty much every other anime is crap. In my opinion at least.
[QUOTE=Nintendo-Guy;22140151]why do people care so much what other people like just dont get it[/QUOTE] Am I allowed to vote you agree? Because that's how I feel too, but seeing how the majority of facepunch-users do not agree with this I feel sorry for them, and I hope they learn about accepting differences.
[QUOTE=Zondac;22140023] True, but that's mainly because of facepunch's hate towards it, and the fact that anime is pretty "underground" stuff here. It's like you walking in a mall talking about a pretty not-known game, and then someone else comes up to you and says they know about the game, you usually start talking about that game for a great while[/QUOTE] I meant the people who get pissed over it. You know, somebody posts a picture of anime, and then everyone else in the thread has to quote that image and comment on how anime is shit.

[QUOTE=Raiskauskone;22119119]Having WW2 weapons just doesnt make sense, because getting ammo for them anywhere outside US is hard as fuck. Maybe throught Ebay or similiar, but I don't think the illegal gundealers in japan or china sells ammunition that no-one uses. And also, the recoil of that gun would knock her over the second she pulls the trigger. The gun weights a fucking ton and kicks like a mule when shooting. This is also one thing that irritates the ever loving shit out of me in anime/manga. Writers usually takes guns that looks cool but never think how fucking stupidly out of place it looks.

Now that you've explained it I realize how correct you are! Seriously, sometimes the fan-haters are more annoying than the fans, because they are the people you COULDA had a serious discussion with, but they are to busy saying how gay anime is for you do actually discuss the topic.

[QUOTE=Zondac;22140023]Well, if you gave it a try, but didn't like it then I am ok with that, I just don't like people bashing stuff just because they have different opinions about what is good entertainment and what is not.

Also i love it how the first physical descriptions you list are "10 year old" and "short skirt"
[QUOTE=TH89;22140255]Hmm *Videos*[/QUOTE] Hmmmm.... Based on that I think you would like some military/detective (investigation) animes, and I would gladly help you find some, it's just that I really do not know alot about anime, so I can't help you there. :buddy: But you probably already knew that... Too bad I can't help you, maybe someone else can though, but let it be known: I tried

I don't like The Wire and Generation Kill because they're police procedurals or military stories. I like them because they have brilliant, snappy writing and provide thoughtful insights into different aspects and layers of our society. The cops and tanks and guns and whatnot are a hook that draws attention, but they're not the substance. Focusing on the broad subject matter is the kind of superficiality that I'm talking about seeing in anime culture. That's not meant as a slight or anything, it's just not for me.
Why can't people just watch shit for entertainment? Some people like shit and others don't. it's the same thing with music, and I don't know why people bitch about it.
I don't [b]hate[/b] it. I just think it's "over-cute".
^this
I don't mind anime really. From a technical standpoint the animation is usually absolute dross (with some notable exceptions) and most series look like they were churned out by a guy in a darkened basement with a copy of flash. Character design is generally rather repetitive and the scripts and storylines are either completely predictable or utter nonsense. Anime is ultimately on the same level as any other cartoon (though sometimes with adult themes). However, they are entertaining timewasters and the notable exceptions are exceedingly good.
[QUOTE=Chekko;22140770]I don't [B]hate[/B] it. I just think it's "over-cute".[/QUOTE] That's an incredibly broad generalization. Contrary to popular belief, anime does, believe it or not, have genres other than loli-rape.

[QUOTE=ashxu;22140869]:downs:[/QUOTE] I thought the fact that I could identify the anime by seeing a single character would have lead to the realization that the post was written in a tongue-in-cheek manner. [editline]04:54AM[/editline] Yet I was truly disappointed at the lack of hot bitches in glasses.
well judging by the thread you posted in, probably not.
