    Bebop is a masterpiece
    back when I first watched it I would binge on the dvds I rented from the library and eat whole packages of doughnuts

    anybody that shits on anime has obviously never watched a whole episode all the way through
    it is literally the greatest medium ever created by humanity and shits on anything the west has ever come up with

    Once you're finished it Bebop you have got to watch Serial Experiments Lain.
    You will never be the same
    Also look into my personal God Satoshi Kon, he is the greatest human to ever exist besides me and Trent Reznor.

    this sort of 'advice' is what puts people off anmie to start with. Lain in particular takes a lot of effort to make sense of, and someone who just wants to know why anime is so popular is not likely to want or care enough to work it out

    I remember watching Pokémon and Yu-gi-oh and Dragonball Z with my son. As soon as that anime crap came out, I stopped watching. He used to watch it all night every Saturday, but he grew out of it.

    Oh lord no. I can work with 720p but I won't go lower unless that's the resolution it aired in. Some studios insist on shit resolutions and I do have a pet peeve with people who take low res stuff and upscale (even if they apply fancy interpolation BS) and passing it off as HD.

    people who're imagination challenged usually have problem with low res stuffs.

    Please be more PC. Low-res challenged would be the preferred moniker.

    no.

    imagination challenged is the proper term. resolution isnt the challenge.

    I know this is tantamount to heresy but i absolutely hate the art style for Attack on Titan. In fact, i hated it so bad, that i couldn't sit through two episodes without sperging out.

    Now that's my problem, i just felt for some reason you ought to know.

    This is probably a weird opinion for a weeb to have but i like it when anime has a realistic art style. In fact i'm having trouble sitting through Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, because all the characters are drawn as caricatures instead of actual human beings.

    I don't think it's about things being real, i love Mahou Shoujo anime for instance, and fucking magic isn't real. So, if the characters are too weirdly drawn, or unrealistically i have trouble relating to them. And for me the point of any story is the emotion in it.
