I like anime. It's pretty lame how they're never showed anymore. I liked Dragon Ball Z the most.

What the French streaker on a fat boy slim pie eating Dr No's corpse and drinking the blood of Matt Damon on a trampoline are you on? Anime is everywhere, I tell ya.

Dragonball Z and GT are pretty much the only anime series I like and have watched from start to finish. I guess I watched Pokemon when I was a kid...

I can't believe I'm saying this, but I agree with you completely.

I don't understand how someone can like the entire genre. I mean I like DBZ but I have absolutely no interest in the rest of the anime genre because it's much of the same done with different stories. As an artform anime is pretty impressive, not everyone can draw like that, but storywise a lot of it is the same.

I like specific series, rather than lumping together so many simply due to the language and artistic style. I did used to watch Monster Rancher as a kid, and recently I couldn't take my eyes off of Club-to-death Angel purely because it was so bizarre. It seemed to have no target audience, combining innocuous (and not-so innocuous) young teen romance, and repeated bloody beheadings of the main character via an enchanted spikey club.

It would depend what kind of genre you wanted.

Personally I bum Fushigi Yuugi but that's because I'm a girl and abit sad like that. But my [horrible ] boyfriend recently got me Battle Royale, which is a shonen manga, and it's actually quite good. Despite my reservations about the art work.

Most of the girly mangas are all the same though, girl meets boy, girl loves boy, boy's a dickhead; that sort of thing. But I like it so... Meh.

You've got to admit that manga artists are very talented.

Dragonball Z is a whole other matter though...

I dislike anime/manga because the style annoys me, and therefore I don't watch it.

God dammit Laser, way to have an awesome opinion.
every single reason on that list (except MAYBE 1) is valid.

Oh, and Abe Is Now? Naruto is shit, DBZ is fine, but Naruto is the worst of them all.

And needless to say, club-to-death angel is the shit.

o3o. I enjoy reading manga when I have a chance to, but when it comes to anime I get very very picky. One particular anime that I hate with the passion is Naruto (Narutards x3). I feel so unclean when I watch five seconds of it. One anime that I do enjoy watching is Paranoia agent.

I suppose I like shows that interest me, not just randomly attaching myself to a genre. Same with music, I like songs, not artists.

The thing I HATE about Anime is the fans. Hell, the only group of fans of ANYTHING I like was for Transformers, but even then, a good half of them are screwed up over-serious fuckers. The only ones I hung out with are the ones who can get that it's just a show. Wooo.

At any rate, my fave Anime?

Lucky Star: It's based off a comic strip, and the whole show is basically a parody, from the OP to the credits.

Sky Girls: It's Mecha, interesting Mecha, and the characters are interesting. Plus, the theme music has hilariously bad Engrish. "Pre-et-et-et-y SKY GIRL!!! 2,1,2,2!!!"

Haruhi: Awesome show, insane and creepy, yet outwardly fun.

I don't like Naruto but I love the theme song. It is the funniest damn thing I have ever heard in my life. It's 90 percent japanese with a few phrases in english thrown in. For instance: "We are fighting dreamers" and "Right here, right now. Bang!"

So damn funny.
