Are all anime’s you should watch if you’re a dude but just not into anime really. All those kinda show why some dudes don’t mind it. Most of those are violent, fast paced, fukked up stories (Goku being a bad father trumps them all lol).

I like the animation and the stories, it's also a different type of story so that adds to it.

I try to watch it but I swear one person is making every anime in the world it all looks the same :pachaha:

And I swear I was the only one in the hood who didn’t watch DBZ. Used to hate when everyone would take the whole lunch talking about that ol bullshyt

Are ya'll watching it because you watched it as a kid and just kept on as a young adult? Or are some of you like 25 and got into some kids show shyt? I watched a few episodes of Avatar: The Last Airbender and didn't get it at all. It was funny, and not bad, but I wouldn't have watched that as a boy. Watched the final fight between the bald kid and the main bad guy and it was good, but that was after 3 seasons I think. What is it about cartoons that ya'll like so much, you just think shyt like DBZ is cool or is there some 'deeper meaning?' Discuss.
Check the anime thread in the film room
We got all the piff :youngsabo:

I drew alot growing up. I always found anime more exciting from an Artistic standpoint than western animation. I was able to mimic American artistic by 9 but not Japanese....mostly because each artist varied so differently.

Then i started actually paying attention to the stories. They were often more complex, longer and mature than western animation

Then i discovered girl p*ssy at 15:mjlit:

I started fukking with anime again after high school sports were done and i realised i missed so much piff. My asian connect had transferred before high school so i was in a drought for years minus Toonami. Internet pirating but me back in the game in 07, freshman of college.


I cant draw like a god anymore though:francis:
