I'm pretty sure I heard somewhere he's also an FLCL fan.

I know the Wachowski brothers are anime fans.

There was some sort of rumba-rumba about Courtney Love liking anime, and styling her next album/concert/videos in an anime sort of way, but I forgot where I heard that.

Well for you (insane) DBZ fans, Method Man is a huge DBZ fan, personally I hate the show.

James Cameron is a serious anime fan

Ive heard the Wachowski brothers, writers of the matrix ... have a love for anime also

I heard Robin Willams is a big anime fan.

And I laughed because in a recent rerun of X-Files a slide of a word found at a crime scene said. ninor. Nobody knew what it was. Fox gets up and states" it doesnt say ninor..it says ronin" and flips the slide around and it does say ronin.

When Scully askes Fox kinda laughs and says "C'mon Scully hasnt everyone read Yo Jimbo?" I dont remember whether Fox said read or seen but I dont remember ever hearing of a Yo Jimbo anime.

The Wachowski Bros. have a passing interest in anime, but they're not what I would consider fans.
