I love it because it can bring to life a story using the following elements: vampires, nazis, mutants, zombies, big guns, werewolves, violent priests, and many historical references. Yes Hellsing is awesome.
Also I find anime makes me think more, the stories i find are deeper (not all, cough*bleach*cough). Who here has watched all of the original Neon Genesis Evangelion series? Remember the metaphysical "nightmare"[as i call it] at the end? yeah ive never seen anything like that made by an american...anything.

I hate the constant topics asking people whether they've heard of this magical new genre and why nobody else can appreciate "narutu ^_^."
My opinion is that it has some good stuff in it, but the majority of it is garbage, and a lot of the people who label themselves as "fans" are an embarrassment to the sane people who become afraid to admit an interest. Sort of like rap.
Just to distinguish myself from the inevitable haters, I have the Death Note Complete Series on my desk, halfway(-ish) through a third full viewing.

I love it, but I'm mostly avoiding shonen anime nowadays. They're fairly predictable. Bad guy shows up, they beat him, bigger bad guy kicks their asses, they get stronger to beat him up, rinse and repeat. At the moment, I'm sticking with Slice of Life, Shakugan No Shana, and Gundam.
I haven't paid any attention to syndicated anime for over half a decade. Most of it is just moe-blob garbage or slice-of-life bullshit with the rest not even worth mention due to being so vapid and deprived of originality. You might get 5, maybe 10, decent series yearly if you're lucky or willing to lower the bar.
Ha! I love these. Off course, these are just parodies of the "moe" anime archetype.Souplex said:
Like any other media, there's a lot of terrible stuff, but there's a lot to like to. Yeah, that's what a lot of people think of when they think of anime, but that's not all there is.
This! A thousand times this!Jiggabyte said:
Amongst the majority of my friends, me liking Hip-Hop at age 21 is a joke, because 50 Cent is the extent of their knowledge of the genre. There was a thread on here a while back about some kid who was bitching that he was being dragged to a 50 Cent concert, and although I hate "Fiddy" with a fury that burns like a thousand suns the amount of uninformed Hip-Hop bashing really got on my nerves. (Which is to be expected on a forum with such a high concentration of Metal-Heads I suppose).
Although this does kinda highlight my hypocrisy in hating Anime... Curses.
I don't see what the huge difference between so-called Western shows and anime is. I like some Western shows, I like some Anime. It honestly depends on the show, and the fact that one may have a different animation style or have subtitles doesn't really influence that.
I like it. I like One Piece alot. And just like alot of people, Dragonball Z was the first one that got me into it.
I'm a huge anime fan, probably it started with "Samurai Pizza Cats" even though that was kind of butchered into a kids show. I've loved it ever since though, and got into it deeper with DBZ and Pokemon, and then went on to shows like my favorite, Ruroni Kenshin, or GITS SAC.
I'm mostly indifferent, although I loved Spirited Away. Haven't seen any other decent anime other than that.
I love anime but I get the feeling it kind of peaked about 10 years ago.
My favorite series is Cowboy Bebop.
It seems like most of the stuff that's come out since then isn't that great. There are a few exceptions but I don't follow it all as closely as I used to.
