I like anime. I don't LOVE it however. Only how smooth the animation is.
I don't watch it often because my mom DOESN'T REALLY like it all that much. *is happy she got a TV in her room so she can watch anime anyway*
The reason I am bringing this up is because alot of ppl now adays like anime. I am one of them, but I'm still loyal and right behind american animation. Besides, I grew up with it. ;D
Alot of parents, most atleast, find anime offensive, which is why they put it on channels you can only get with cable/sattelite OR they put them on cartoon network and show them around 12 AM to 5 AM in the morning.
I know most anime's have non appropriate images, or they use alot of mature jokes and such, but I honestly like SOME.
Meh, what do you all think?

I have a friend who's been very, very obsessed with anime for about six years now and has therefore piqued my interest in it. I love the way the animation is done--the trademark little things that tell you it's anime, like sweatdrops and how the people move/talk/fall down, or whatever...the look of the hair and teeth, etc.
I don't watch a whole lot of it because, well, I don't watch that much TV anymore. I used to be totally obsessed with Inuyasha (as some people know). I also like Yu Yu Hakusho and Gundam Wing (my friends assigned us characters from that show and I was Lady Une), and a couple of others I haven't seen in a long time.
Pokemon is one of my favorite animes and one that I know the most about...^^;;

In fact, I used to know more about it then most. But that's changed. IMO, Pokemon was good in the 1st season. Then...uhm...bleh. For some reason, alot of ppl think Pokemon isn't a true anime. Which is weird....>>

Yea, the show has gotten kind of lame. I've seen almost all the episodes a couple dozen times, though...used to watch em on Saturday mornings. Team Rocket was always the best part. I dunno why it wouldn't be considered a true anime. It is as far as I know.

Pokemon had a different....atmosphere in the beginning.
Probably people have gotten so use to the characters they want something knew. I guess that's what I felt when I played Pokemon Colliseum. It wasn't Ash and Pikachu but a guy named Seth and his Umbreon and.....forgot the purple one.....
Digimon too ^_^

Espeon. ;D
Espeon's actually my least favorite 'Eevee-lution.'
I like them in this order, probably: Jolteon, Vaporeon, Umbreon, Flareon, Espeon. Or maybe reverse Vaporeon and Umbreon..or something..I dunno. I know I like those 3 best. ;D

Espeon is on my number one team! I kept trying to get an umbreon....>> failed, sadly. But it's still a good pokemon.
I think ppl didn't think it was a TRUE anime because it wasn't as violent as most others. Digimon, yeah, it was violent. Like Pokemon violence, but some sences in digimon should've been cut out. I got GROUNDED for watching digimon a few times! My mom didn't like it, she prefered pokemon over that. But hehe...I still watched it. =P

That's weird. Maybe she feared it was real or something since season 3 ^_^ Weird. I don't see Vee as anything wrong heh.

It's not that I don't love Espeon--it's just that I love the other 4 more...but they're all some of my favorites... Violent? Well...yea, I guess, but I think it's sort of ridiculous to say that a show has to contain a certain level of violence to be considered part of a certain style.. But, whatever! ;D

Oh....it's only a few of the "middle" episodes in the first season she didn't find appropraite. Also, most anime's, form what I've seen so far (which are a lot, considering I don't watch TV much anymore), have either violence, adult....uhm...things, or both. Digimon, had violence. Pokemon, had kiddy violence. To where, no blood would show, nor would they're be any non appropriate things.....UHM exept that one cancelled episode....o.o;; But still....

I like some Anime films, like Spirited Away, and if you've seen the first Kill Bill, you'll know about the anime part which is actually really good. I like the style, but the tv shows sort of annoy me. ;D

Kill Bill is my favorite non-animated movie ever.
