anime (japanese animation and shit)
okay, this might not cater to all people here on GA. But I know some of you are there. I know it, i can smell your fandom.
I know that anime existed when I was younger. I can't tell you how many pokemon i caught with ash katchup or whatever in like 6th grade.
From then on I'd watch adult swim and shit then stopped when I thought there was cooler stuff to do. I remember that there were people who were into it at school. As I grew up I found that there were tons of people who were into it. Mostly the movie genre (and after researching it LOL there are so many f**king movies)
(i'm going to drop titles below i'm sure most people will know them who enjoy the genre
Now, being completely honest. I thought it was stupid and gay like during high school (the president of the anime club was in one of my lab classes he'd always give us flyers and shit) So one like summer I went to block buster couldn't find anything and I went through their anime section bought 'Withering Continent'. If i remember correctly it was about a group of explorer's who discover this ancient city. It was f**king confusing but it was cool. From then I watched Vampire D with somebody who forced me to watch it, the hand that talks is weird. After that the guy who made me watch Vampire D f**ked me with Princess Mononoke. From then I watched Metropolis, Howls Moving Castle, Ponyo. All of which have been from an outsider influence. I was asked to go see Ponyo and Howls Moving Castle. Not on my own accord mind you.
Anyways, the past I guess week I've decided to like something I didn't like before (anime) and I checked Hulu.
Holy f**k
How do all the anime fans keep track? Especially when its in another language (that in itself I think is so f**king funny but I dunno if you understand it the way i do, maybe cause I'm stoned) Sure I've watched the occasional cowboy beepop on adult swim, but that is with multiple people and probably drugs and i have no real concept of the whole thing only that Japanese have nothing better to do than be boss at drawing.
So anyways I looked through the various I guess TV Shows, I thought they were all movies, or just long movies broken up into episodes to seem like episodes or a show. Whatever, so I've been watching 'X'. Right now I'm on episode 6 I think. I'm paying attention to everything immersing myself etc. It is in Japanese (i think Oo) and reading comments people have INTENSE discussions on the validity of the words and stuff when translated. like for instance in 'X' the definite comedic character is a young guy named Kouya, plus whoever does his voice has to be on something. Always hitting on this one girl who can pull a sword out of her hand (whhhat), he calls her missie all the time. Who says missie? Anyways my point was very drawn out. I'm pretty sure people have stopped reading right now.
But I wanted to share that. i get obsessed when I want to learn about something. but for those of you who did read and know about anime, what should I watch. Is everything fantasy/demons/angels/end of the world? Any gay stuff? Lol that would be weird, that was actually uncomfortable to write.also the music at the beginning and ending is really dumb.
bye
