I'm a Japanese amateur sociologist.
I'm interested in why Japanese subculture makes certain number of enthusiasts all around the world.

Please tell me also Anime you love!

I like anime because I love stories, and anime allows for things you couldn't do in a live action show. I also love animation and voice acting, so that's another big thing for me.

To put it simply. Anime is so diverse that it really brings a lot to the table. Love, action, drama, comedy, etc... And almost evry anime manages to combine several of these themes, and some of them have absolutely everything. Furthermore, i like that some have a very complicated plot full of mystery and unknowns, while others have plots that a completely predictable. Sometimes i like scratching my head, and sometimes I like just being cmpletely mindless. Besides, i'm a total geek. I love knowing everyting about every car ever, and reading fantasy books lol.

Anime and manga, to simply put it, are grand. They allow a variety of things that cannot be portrayed in real life to be shown. Everything is a personifacation of what would happen if it were anatomically possible. I would love to be able to kick my friend so hard that he twinkles in the distance. I would be overjoyed to make 'l3' faces when I am happy and ';^;' faces when I'm sad. I do on the inside, so it's fasinating to see it on the outside as well.

To me anime is almost compared to US mid-day/evening shows. Comedies, drama, suspense...only animated. Plus, the writing on most of the Anime out there are way better, than most of our on air programming.

Plus, when you grow up on it...its becomes a part of you.
