Anime SUCKS... No, it sorta doesn't!

This forum is for the general discussion of Anime.

Yeah, right. I don't think they're growing up that fast! But your dad is getting us closer!
the only adult i know who ever liked cartoons as an adult is my dad. he loved ren and stimpy and the simpsons and older southpark.

Just add shameless anime plugging...




Gee i think your right about that crap. Why else would I be hiding anime subs in the office desks? Because, to most people, anime = just another "speed racer / dbz" think like bugs and tweety, just the bad guys getting tripped up or something. Ugh.


Hell, Bebop could've been on Fox!


But dammit, it would be nice to see Cowboy Bebo on Fox. If you think thats too cartoon-adult-oriented, its much better than the total bullshit the american companies are putting out. Theres more explicit content involve in an episode of "Friends", "South Park / Futurama" etc than CB.

Americans think their own TV is too damn good. Then they only realize how many times Kenny cusses in South Park when they add the curse-o-meter or something. Can anybody say "lawsuit" ? Theres a lower cW/h (cursewords per hour) in most anime than in south park!
Remember dragonball on YTV/CN? Theres the Bulma Bath Scene, CN got a lot of cals over that one!

Done ranting for now.

Well if thats bad, check out the total amCRAPPY AMERICAN BULLSHIT they are putting out. In fact here's the basic plot for an episode of Fox's Just Shoot Me


Somebody's birthday at the office, character number one sends character number two a video game station. The evil receptionist tampers with the birthday cards and swaps it with a box of stuff from a porn store.

The character # 1, who sent it, invites character # 2 over "Lets play some games" "im gonna whoop you" etc. Remember, character # 1 doesnt know about the evil receptionist and thinks he has a video game.

Im not going to spoil it for now... Its funny but Fox almost got sued over this! So, why not add CB or some other anime, it much less threatening than Friends, etc.
Even the simpsons has dealt with death, explicit content, and lots of political incorrectnedd i can say that!

If american TV is that shitty...


Why did they edit out the word "kill" from anime?!?!?!
If thats bad for your kids dont get cable!
They'll just turn on HBo and where is that? Yes it sex in the city!
Then, turn on Discovery Channel stuff too!!!



Anime is not gruesome. Im not like that affected by blood and gore. After all, why censor up anime when your kids are flipping through TLC on the way up? Thats right, theres Code Blue Life in the ER operating scenes, and if you think that kenshin ovas are too brutal, theres a clip of a guy getting impaled through a tree. And of course, theres Cops and FBI files. Where you see graphic reenactments of murders and watch the bandits wipe up the floor on the way out.

Well, I can't convince a friend of mine that there IS a difference between Cartoons and Anime. Stuff like Pokemon, Galaxy Express 999, and Digimon don't help me out any. :cry:

Again... FLCL is very good.

You can't say anime sucks if you are baseing it off of what comes on the TV in the U.S. There are a few exceptions Ex. Cowboy Bebop.

Don't think that everyone thinkts that anime is just kiddie cartoons or the devil incarnate in the form of a japanese cartoon. Roger Ebert said that Grave of the fire flies was one of the best war films ever. And ther international chanel shows uncut anime (its unsubbed too but its the uncut part that matters most.) The action channel shows more anime than I can list right now, all uncut. So I think things aren't all bad.
So in other words, one part of the community is waging war on another part of the community because they take their community seriously enough to want to do so. Then they tell the powerless side to get over the loss cause it's just an online community. I'm glad people make so much sense." -- Tab

I have both. Unfortunately, my descablers broke yesterday.
Blame Xilinx, they're the ones who made it!



But seriously, they have got to start weaning the adults off of live action someday! I mean, half of all the effects in some movies are CG! Why not just rent some anime instead. Its easier.
