Things people like, but you can't quite understand

Recommended Posts

So many people listing anime, and no doubt their only 'experience' on the subject is some poorly dubbed pokemon episodes or something like that, le sigh.

 

lol, Good point. Or sailor moon or any other crappy stuff they used to put on saturday morning.

Not really, it's actually all the same in my eyes...Anime That is

 

And I understand that some people don't like Football, or Rugby but All Sport?

 

Jesus...Mother of God....

We think the same about anime.

 

Edit: This may sound misleading, what I meant was, we understand someone not liking some anime, but not liking any of it is the same as not liking any movies.

It varies a fair bit... for example:

...and that's only from shows I like.

I actually don't think they are comparable....

Seriously......

 

Can you go out with your friends and watch Anime and Sing About Anime?

Can you go to a stadium and watch Anime?

Can Anime united a country?

Can Anime inspire people?

Can Anime result in some of the greatest experiences of your life time?

Can you spend hours upon end at a County Cricket club with a few mates have a few drinks and watch cricket in the sun?

 

And thats only covering a small range of sports and their are many many different sports...

Well it's different, but it's based on the same convention...

 

Japanese people with big eyes and facial expressions

 

Fair Credit to you all if you Like Anime, but it has never taken my fancy!

Those aren't all really fair options - i mean you can't necessarily do all of those with anything you watch on tv, you know. Having said that, I think i've done at least three of those things.

I thought a similar sort of thing before Shorty actually got me watching some. You'd be surprised how good they can be! Focusing merely on the 'anime' part of anime is like focusing on the fact that there's 22 men running around on the pitch in football. Sure, it's true, but that's not the reason you watch it, is it?

 

I've seen anime's about ninjas, pirates, high school, board games, tennis, robots... It's all a fantasy world. Like computer games, there's a lot of sub-genres, and it's rather narrow minded to say you'll never like any anime. It's not just a cartoon!

That's what I used to think about Anime; Big eyes, facial expressions, over-the-top emotion and awful J-Pop. Not anymore, though, I sorta like it now. :grin:

1. Halo - You'd expect people would see beyond the hype. Sure the online may be good, but hold it as one of the greatest series ever? Pffft.

 

2. The fuss over Football - I can understand people liking it, but even the media hold football in a higher ground than they should. All the fuss around it is the only thing I can't comprehend.

 

3. Cars

 

4. Star Trek

 

5. Video Gaming Fanboys that pay too much attention to sales, business deals and review scores.

 

6. Coca-Cola - I just don't like it.

 

7. Text messaging for no reason at all

 

8. The craze over cellphones - They exist to make phonecalls. Nothing more.

 

9. Rap and Hip-Hop

 

10. MTV

 

11. 50 Cent

 

12. Fans of the unknown - You know, people that love obscure bands/groups/companies, but start hating them as soon as they start getting some significant fame (even though they don't change their style), claiming they 'sold themselves'.

 

13. TVI (Portuguese Channel)

 

 

It seems there are quite a few thing I don't like...
