So that means you haven’t seen EVA?

Anyway…..Its been years since I’ve seen the original pokemon, I still remember the Teamrocket speech thing.

Prepare for trouble
Make it double
To Protect the world from devastation
To unite all people within our nation
To denounce the evils of truth and love
To extend our reach to the stars above
Jessie
James
Team rocket blast off at the speed of light
Surrender now or prepare to fight
Meowth! Thats right!

I hate how they change ash’s/Satoshi’s original voice in the english version D;

And GOOD ON YOU lolikitsune for watching Joshikousei - good anime should always take precedence over bad (or should that be the other way round -_-)

Remember, anime is targeted at different segagements, and your post seem to imply that you hang out with the more “shounen” leaning group while you learn toward the “seinen” group. Anime is a medium, not a genre.

If you put three brain cells together, one would very quickly realize that shows like Launme, Ichigo Mashimaro, Azmanga Daioh, Di Gi Charat are all targeted at male audiences. (Launme is a erogame convert, Ichigo Mashimaro, Di Gi Charat and Azmanga Daioh are ALL serialized on Dengeki Daihou, a MALE targeting manga magzine) *I think you need this mag*

While you write this blog entry, in Japan an new group of suckers seeking the perfection of moe retreat to hikikomori-dom. (haha) You are not weird at all, but fits PERFECTLY within the targeting strategy of the Japanese moe-cute segagment of the ACG industry.

Even “crying-anime” are targeted at largely at the same group of people. There is gotta be people watching Air, Kanon and Saikano. There is even a complete sub-genre of “cry” erogame which gets converted into some of the anime listed.

Within this frame work, it is no surprise that traditional shounen “fightfests” don’t appeal. After all most people in this group is more interested in new innovations in seifuku design than yet another super duper secret ninja art.

The only problem is that you probably live in the horrible land of united states where mascunility requirements means going ZOMG MOE!!!!! makes you a queer.

I’m surprised people that have blogs that show up on wordpress would consider this all strange at all. Consider the people at heisei democracy….. >_>

finally……. MIU-CHAN SUGOI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111one!11!1

P.S. Quote: Depressing anime makes me physically weak.
Absolutely. Grave of Fireflies = wasted for a whole day. Kiminozo binge = stuck on bed for 6 hours afterwards….

The first 3 anime I watched (outside of the ones shown in TV back in my country, like Saint Seiya and Doraemon, etc) was Ah My Goddess OVA, Gun Smith Cats, and Golden Boy. I’m shamed to admit that I like Golden Boy more than the other two combined. In fact, I might like it too much for it’s toilet joke And I liked Gun Smith Cats more than AMG. There’s nothing like a fight between hot femme-fatales, just like the one between Levy and Mad Dog Meido.

I’m also guilty of having a huge backlog.

And Cowboy Bebop, I hope I get to watch it this year.

I was originally going to, but then when I was rereading your post I thought you wanted us to post our confessions in comments here… my bad? :\
