Anime: Like or dislike?

Another nice thing about subs is that they sometimes explain little things to you, like "in japan its believed that ghosts have no feet, this is why ichigo thought ryu was a ghost"
 
I love anime. My favourite series so far are Evangelion, Elfen Lied and Triple Xholic. I think I tend to enjoy the more 'mature' outings of anime. I'm also in love with movies like Spirited Away and Howl's Moving Castle. Hayao Miyazaki has one beast of an imagination.
 
You know it took me a while to find decent anime. There is loads of anime and allot of it is kak. Just need to scratch the surface of the junk.
 
What's not to like about anime? The writers often have the most unusual imaginations and cartoons give them so much freedom of expression.
 
I love anime but it has to be more of the older marketed anime such as Ninja scroll/akira/ghost in the shell and such i really cant handle these anime where something stupid happens and his head becomes the size of a house

I have to agree with you there.

And sorry it has to be in its original language because somethings there are somethings which are lost in the voice acting... Remember watching a translated bleach and one of the man actors sounded like he was being castrated by a rusty spoon
 
I come to this thread a bit late - but I haven't been browsing the forums as much lately.

Short answer - yes ... I like it.

Long answer - Anime, pretty much since I discovered it, has become one of my biggest hobbies and passions. I blog about it, I watch it, I draw, I collect the figurines (slowly, because they're so damned expensive) - and by extension, I've gained my fascination with the Japanese culture and language.

You should actually have put a poll up when you created the thread, OP.
 
Nice to hear everyone's opinions etc. Shadowfox, you are really into it, it seems. Wow.

The sub-title thing and foreign language is a killer. I'm sure if you can understand Japanese it must be pretty cool watching the original, but if you can't, then reading sub-titles the whole time sucks and the voice over is not the same.
 
Love it! Used to watch it religiously back in the day (the likes of Trigun, Cowboy Bebop, Vision of Escafloune) then became inactive for about 3 years. Getting back into it now - started watching Code Geass/Fairy Tail/Kaichou wa Maid-sama last week..really digging them thus far.
