I simply think a lot of Anime is... well, simply put, not acceptable in its portrayal of certain things.

*giggles* That's the point sometimes. (First rule of an anime heroine: pink hair.)

Could you define not acceptable?

I do have to agree, anime hair- from what I've seen- is usually ridiculous.

"She's a mutant! Look at her eyes! No-one has eyes that big! Her forehead is enormous!" ~Totalbiscuit, being forced by his wife to play a Japanese dating-sim type game.

Hilarious stream.

I agree with Totalbuiscuit.

@Skarzs: Something "so completely different"? So you think that you are superior because your interest is something "normal"? You have a small mind, dearie.

I don't appreciate that assumption. And no, I don't think that I am "Superior because my interest is something 'normal' ", because my interests are not normal.
I'm just noting that anime isn't normal in it's art, it's ideas, plots, etc. Of course, with the disturbing amount of people obsessed with it now, it could be considered 'normal'.

Second that!

Define 'Normal.' A bunch of subjective words are being thrown around here, 'Not acceptable' and 'Normal' and so on... Specificity?

I personally have nothing against anime, it is not to my taste and it can sometimes make me a little uncomfortable. Doesn't make it bad, though.

[The Skarzs]

My definition is probably the same as yours, Rus.

Oh, this should be fun. I wasn't meaning to insult you, I just recognized the things you had said as a fault that shows itself in many pre-teens and young adults these days. I'm dealing with it myself. Inexperienced people like us tend to think that we are "different" than everyone else because of something we like our some way we act. We pride ourselves in being "not normal", because that is our way of identifying ourselves and setting us apart from everyone else. It's delusional, really, and I only say it that way because I'm delusional too. There is really no such thing as "normality" because everyone has a different definition of what is normal.

[The Skarzs]

I wasn't insulted, by any means. Yes, we all do want to be different that other people, but eventually the 'not normal' things become the normal, like anime.


I'm going to stop posting about this because I foresee this going around in loops for an indefinite period of time. For now, I shall revel in the weirdness that I am a troll.

[BlueRose]

Anime is normal for some, not for others. The definition of normal is never constant. "Normal" is a liquid. A very shiny liquid towards which everyone strives.

[Rusvul]

My definition is probably the same as yours, Rus.

Definition of what- 'Normal', or 'not acceptable'? Presumably 'normal', yes. Hm.

I'd agree with you, Blue, there is no objective definition of 'normal' aside from 'what the majority is.' Which doesn't really say anything, because that is perceived differently by everyone, and responds to everyone differently.

Normal is entirely subjective.

[BlueRose]

YAAAAY! Everybody agrees now. Woot!

That really doesn't help anyone to understand why you dislike it, certain things could be anything
