No trolling intended. I was just stating my opinion with no harrasment to yours. I respect your opinion on anime and I am well aware that I am in a huge minority here. I will elaborate, just to show that I am not here to troll. I grew up with cartoons and watched shows like Dragon ball. They were just some fun ways to start each sommer morning when I was at my gandma's, because we had no TV programmes that aired anime at home. We only had german programmes like nick and super RTL, which never aired anime. I was obsessed with cartoons my whole life (Avatar: the last airbender, Avatar: legend of Korra, Spongebob, The Fairly Odd Parents, Oggy and the Cockroaches, Doug, The Ren & Stimpy Show, Rocko's Modern Life, Hey Arnold, The Angry Beavers, CatDog, Invader Zim, ChalkZone, Jimmy Neutron, Danny Phantom, Simpsons, Kim Possible, Recess, Pink Panther, The Smurfs, TaleSpin).
I just wanted to let you know that there are people out there who love cartoons, are aware of the exsistance of anime, but simply don't like it.
Anime just seems "generic" to me. The story and the artstyle. I can't stand spiky hair or big unwieldy swords in fantasy settings. This conclusion of course comes from very little experience with anime, I admit that. I simply can't force myself to watch it, sorry. If anyone has any suggestions on some anime though, that could change my opinion on it and get me hooked in just a few episodes, please post. I am open minded.
Sorry for my hasty judgment, the tone you evoked in your original post(s) had a trollish feel ^_^. That being said, tell me what you want to see in a show, and I can gladly point you in a direction that you'd probably enjoy. (I personally dislike the "spiky hair/humongous sword stereotype too.)
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
he wasnt trolling he just wanted to debate. i mean just look at his name
May it be violent or rather something comedic?
Plz speak noobish XD
Adventure, non sci-fi:
-Samurai Champloo
-Claymore
-Sword Art Online
-Magi: The Kingdom of Magi
Sword art online is kind of sci-fi
The most hillarous comedy - beelzebub
Hajime no ippo - slow in the starting but gets really intetesting later
Kuroko no basket
Dragon Balls is, yes. That was my point. I said we didn't have any TV programmes at home that aired anime and therefore I feel absolutely no nostalgia towards anime and I think some nostalgia is necessary, since I see no reason why anybody would like that generic style.
The Avatar series is not anime. The show is produced in America, and only borows some imagery and philosophy of ancient asian cultures.
In partnership with a few Korean animation studios.
It's worth mentioning that "anime" in Japan is used to reference all forms of animation, regardless of whether or not it is native.
Oh, and from Wikipedia:
It's a gray area, and open to interpretation.Arguably, the stylization approach to the meaning may open up the possibility of anime produced in countries other than Japan.
Of course, the anime genre has some of the worst fangirls out there, so good luck explaining any of this to them.
Hmm, recently started Rage of Bahamut: Genesis, despite that I knew nothing about the game(s), currently at ep 6, and find myself enjoying this series more than most series. For once, we get a MC who isn't a stereotypical copy and pasteaon character, always a plus, the art style is refreshing, the OP is possibly one of my favorites ever (if only for the song XD), PLUS Necromancer Zombie Loli FTW!
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Sigh Tokyo ghoul is getting depressing. Parasyte is still top. 7 deadly sins is epic, tell me merlin isn't hot.
Watched a little of death parade and assassination classroom both of them are good.
