Dragonball Z is a disgrace to anime.

I'm watching Mnemosyne at the moment.


WOOT!

Anime is too general to just say it either sucks or doesn't...like books, movies, or anything else really.

Let's see.. there's animation, lightly-clothed girls who don't act anything like someone in real life, boys with high pitched voices and huge teardrops, and then some bad-ass with a sword big enough to imply compensation.

Am I on the right track?



Not at all, that's just one sub-genre of anime. The funny semi-dramatic high school girly dating kind. The best ones, well my favorite, are the adventure/action/horror ones. Wolf's Rain, Blue Gender, Ergo Proxy, Hellsing And of course Dragonball Z is one of my tops. Anime is just another type of art designed to explain a story just like music, poetry, movies, books etc, and like anything else, some of the art styles are less creative than others, such as the big eyed annoying ones, and some are amazingly detailed and deep.

<- Otaku.

I love anime.


I like anime too, but not the general kinds (I don't like Naruto, Dragonball, etc.) I like stuff like NGE, Full Moon, Elfen Lied, etc.

on another, please refrain from calling yourselves otaku without knowing its meaning... Go look it up;) It's not something you want to be calling yourself.

To Jettie:
lol! anime with a french song:P that's kinda funny;)

This is a better AMV for anime:

That'd sort of be like me only watching one channel on TV and declaring every show on television to be garbage. Thank you come again.

Its meaning is similar to nerd and freak... a very degrading term in Japanese.
So stop calling yourself that.

And I happen to like the term.

it isn't degrading at all. it's just a term for anime lovers. not good not bad. and the words nerd or geek and such aren't degrading either. when people call me those. i just smile and thank them. it's an honor doing business.
