Hi^^
I would like to know if your friends are interested in Anime & Manga, too, or if they think your crazy ^^ Maybe they say that Anime is something for children or something.
Thanx

This isn't a hobby, it's a way of life.

heh, my mom and sister thinks its wierd, and so did my dad, untill about 2 years ago when i brought my complete NGE series home with me when i got out the Navy. HE was blown away, not just by the artwork, but the story that goes into it. oh man, you should have seen him when he finished the series and the EoE/D&R dvd's, he almost cried...heh.

Most of my friends like anime....but then again a lot are into Hentai, and that is what turns a lot of people off of anime...they think its just cartoon porn because they saw one GUY episode. not to mention Heavy Metal
