    Default Why are you so obsessed with anime?

    Okay. We all know that being here means we are basically obsessed with anime. I bet that a lot of us found this forum in search for talking to someone about the anime series we just finished - being all emotional and stuff.

    Since that first series, we've been watching many other anime series - always to find a new one after/before the previous is finished. Some people start watching more series at a time and sites like "AnimeTake" and "Nyaa torrent" have become our favorite websites.

    Down to the question: Why did we get so much into anime?

    I'll go first:

    First series I ever laid eyes on was Naruto. My girlfriend at the time was watching it and I sorta joined in and I kinda got used to Japanese humor. Now I'm basically hooked on anime.

    I never grew out of my cartoon phase and anime has a more mature storyline generally than say Power Puff Girls(which I love).

    *changes the question to "Why were you obsessed with anime*

    Well Dr. Phil, (xD JK)

    The reason I used to be obsessed with anime is because of the freakin awesome life style all the character's had. The females especially. I'm a little women of only 5'3", sadly I am a little weakling. However the characters i would see on my all time favorite anime series like Sailor Moon (Sarina), and Dragon Ball Z (Chichi), were so cool! Also I always wanted to have super natural powers like most character's do on any ol' anime series.

    Now I've grown old, and realize that life isn't like these anime shows make to believe. Sadly I have lost alot of my imagination, so now all I do is dream of the good ol' days where a skinny little Japanese high school girl with huge boobies kicked the butt of a man three times her size. *sigh*
    Once again, amazing props to the talented Paprika!!



    This smile kills....

    Hmmmm I would say the reason I like anime so much is because good anime is really freaking good!
    I when I watched Kenshin for the 1st time I loved the art style and the story telling.
    Then that got me into more anime series some really good some bad.
    As I grow older I notice all the fan service in anime which can turn me off to some anime but there is still some anime that are good.
    And besides cartoons in awesome you watch tv shows like anime to leavee the real world.
    I mean in real life theres no Harlem anime where a normal guy like me is followed around by girls with huge ( breasts ) wanting me.
    But when I watch it I laugh and think man that would be cool!

    I'm obsessed with anime because I'm obsessed with anything that has to do with television and movies, or books and video games for that matter. Plot, narrative, character development, those kind of things ^_^
    ...and besides, I'm half-Asian, gotta love my heritage.

    Religion, ideology, resources, land, spite, love or just because... No matter how pathetic the reason, it's enough to start war. War will never cease to exist... reasons can be thought up after the fact... Human nature pursues strife.

    I think its because most anime tend to have a more elaborate plot unlike American cartoons, and the action is more intense. Thats what hooked me on as a little kid. Also it has a good visual style that I enjoy.

    So anime has pretty much hooked me for a long time. Then again... it could be the panty shots.

    I wouldn't call it to the point of "obsession", however I've always been one to appreciate a heart-wrenching and powerful story. To couple that with the amazing seiyuus of Japan and their animation style, what more could one ask for?

    Not good enough for you? Then, awesome anime is awesome. Watch it and let your spirit shine a little bit brighter.

    My thanks to Xey Oiz for the awesome new set.

    Awww, that's actually kinda sad! I'm surprised that the one to actually write the thing about Japanese anime series and their tits would be a girl :P Anyway, seeing as I'm still in my teens (19 - 20 this summer - DAM DAM DAAAA!!!!) I feel I have all sorts of reason to still be watching anime. But I do have this feeling that I will grow tired of it sometimes.

    For example, I watched Dragon Crisis! and Eureka Seven just recently... Click image for larger version

    Anyhow, I'll never grow tired of the humongous titties bouncing around the screen - it's either sexy or way too funny xD But I guess that's something else for you, eh? XD

    The first anime I ever came in contact with was Sailor Moon. I remember going up really early during the mornings that summer just to watch it together with my siblings. If you was tired and missed a little bit my siblings would scream at me to come to them. I remember that I really liked Sailor Mars, she was strong and really brave. And she could also throw fire! What a bonus!

    A while after that they started to show Pokemon on the televisons as well.. cute furry little animals that had amazing powers? How could I not help but to turn into a fan of anime???

    Oooooh Cubone - you will always be in my heart!

    They are generally awesome and creative. Also the animation, music, characters are pretty much second to none.

    They are generally awesome and creative. Also the animation, music, characters are pretty much second to none.
    Honestly, I have heard some music that was rather unfitting. xD But that's quite beside the point - though, I was wondering: Doesn't it ever annoy you, that many ideas are reused? Gundam Seed for example.. Robot fights looks so much like Eureka SeveN? The endings of some series are just way too much alike? And finally, there are vast amount of different characteristics for a main character, yet we still see Ichigo, Naruto, Natsu and so on all depending on their main attribute: Stamina. Either a dream or someone to fight for that keeps them going.

    That doesn't mean that I get tired of watching. For some reason they are all appealing in different ways and keep on being - but sometimes I do wonder when I will exceed my limit of toleration when it comes to similarities in anime. Is that just me?

    Good question. Well I started watching anime on Toonami when I was a kid, and Dragon Ball Z was my first anime. Let me tell you that show was amzing when I was a kid. Running around yelling KAMEHAMEHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! was a LOT of fun. And that show was straight up BA. So then I started watching others. Like Pokemon and Yu-Gi-Oh(if anyone considers those anime, then Pokemon would've been my first). Then I stopped wacthing. Then Naruto came into my life and I've loved anime ever since. Then Bleach came, then I started to watch all sorts of anime. It's just better than anything I've ever really watched. Better than regular cartoons and things. Anime's have compelling stories with memorable and lovable characters. Which is something I really loved. And anime's can also be very touching. A lot of them can relate to a lot of people's personalities or problems or even life (like for me, Naruto is the most special. We're a lot alike). Anime is just awesome and I'll always love it.

    True THAT Penshiru! It's fun to think if that were true. I mean a regular guy like me won't be followed around by cute girls with massive breasts.(Since cute, skinny, non-whorish girls don't really exist, let alone in massive quantities :P) But, it's fun to think about it and say man that'd be great!

    Hi
    This is too the first few comments from people about being old.

    I am now 21 and still watch anime more then ever, and i believe it doesnt matter why you love something or what other people think. My friends still watch it and if anything i get them on to it more after watching something and talking about it plus my girlfriend doesnt care because she knows its who i am and im starting to get her into it. So i believe if people laugh or make fun of you about then just put it behide you and do what you want (life is what YOU make it not other). plus if you show most people the right anime they get hooked just like us. i got hooked from watch elfen lied being bored at uni and all of a sudden i was watching it to fill in time but then i found better and better anime and have stoped.

    Also it doesnt matter if you grow up and realise it will never happen, it doesnt matter just means we make the life that we have worth living. i go travelling just for that reason i love the adventure and i love seeing old places that have history and love finding out about it.

    Ps. Elfen lied and Naruto got be back into anime after a long period off watching cartoons to come back and watch anime.

    I feel like going "Wtf did you just say" as well as "Fawk yeah, I can relate to that" :P I think I get your drift, and I couldn't agree more.

    O'rly? I bet they do somewhere :P Just recently, I was at a party and I wasn't even really drunk. Somehow, I ended up with two chicks on my lap who just... sort of sat there and were all horny throughout the rest of the party. I was too stunned by laughter and surprise, because it was just too weird xD Also, if I made a move on any of them, wouldn't that mean that the other would be left out? So ultimately, I just sat there, enjoyed myself and threw hand-signals at bypassing friends, who were laughing their donkey off as much as I was xD

    Well, you can basically say i loved it since i was really young. I think the 1st anime(s) i ever watched was the "Sailor Moon S" and "Sailor Moon R" movies with my sister.. and then Naruto and One Piece on Cartoon Network at like 11 at night... a year or so later i found out about Tokyo Mew Mew and started watching most of that.. xP
    ~THEN this past summer my friend from my art classes really got me off the wall obsessed with it with all the manga and dances.. I love the art,music,characters, and basically everything else possibly about it. Its a way of life now.. xD

    I've become all the more obsessed with my consistant anime watching & buying on DVD ever since I first went full-time in my job 10 years ago now & was freely able to do so on a regular basis because of that all thanks to my fortnightly pay/wage ^^

    Default Re: Why are you so obsessed with anime?

    I pretty much became obsessed without knowing it's name was 'anime' like most of population. But every summer in my childhood was when I would watch anime ALL DAY. I would wake up the next day eagerly just to watch anime on TV. [Animax] I guess I'm obbssessed because of it's plot and I found it interesting because .. well I guess I didn't find my own live interesting at that time o.o

    But I'm still addicted to it because of the many variety of genre, plot, and art style ~ <3

    It's funny how many people watched anime when they were kids and then ended up watching it ever since. Honestly, I can relate to that. We had Pokémon going everyday at 8 in the morning during summer vacation - feces was cash (the profanity filter - you know?). Though, at first, I thought that anime was limited to shounen. Apperently, I was wrong xD I'm glad now, though. That's the cool thing with anime - you can watch random series that make no sense and still have a great time
