I'm guessing by short posts... that a vaguely accurate tldr is, localization is dying? Don't care, I have an issue with seeing people who are asian speaking w/o an accent in English, just looks funny to me. (not individually, but when it's the whole population)

honestly i dont blame fansubbs in fact i think fansubbs boomed the industry to begin with that and DBZ of course. i blame bad exposure. anime is rarely advedrtised. its rarely at wal mart or anything. when it is sold its normally 30 bucks for 4 episodes. buying an entire series of 25 episodescan cost easily 100 bucks. but compare to an american tv show its 40 or 50 bucks. blu ray anime can be 80 bucks for 13 episodes its freakiin expensive. also given its hard to walk into a store and find anime for sale i personally blame the companies. they advertise badly its hard to find in stores and its EXPENSIVE!!!!!!!!!!!! honestly i have a fairly big anime collection but thats only because when i buy its cheaper online so im looking for somethinhg walmart has DBZ or i find a sale for half off. sometimes its a reasonable 20 dollars for 4 or 5 episodes on blu ray at that? so guess ive bought those cause they were a good price. but take ghost in the shell buying the entire series in a stoire not on sale was 400 or so bucks. thas 3 movies 2 series recaps and 2 seasons. i only did that cause I LOVE THAT SHOW. i wouldnt do that for many other shows. my point is. advertise the stuff. lower the prices and translate good shows and of course i need to be able to walk into walmart andfind a decent selection. if you cant do these 4 things its the industries fault not mine that i chose fan subs or other people do. simply cant afford 50 bucks sometimes for one movie.

No, I actually took two hours or so typing this up. Whew... But thank you.

Impressive. But there's no way in the world that I'm going to read that. But ibdo hope that they stop doing whatever they're doing to anime.

▲ Why post this on a forum filled with anime haters and anime noobs? There are only a few here that aren't newfriends anyway, and most of them are the cancer. ▲

I just said it was the wapanese. The Japanese language consists of over 100,000 unique words, but the wapanese anime fans believe they've got it down just by saying "desu", "kawaii", and "baka" a lot in English conversation.

A friend gave me a DVD of Yugioh with only four episodes; guess what, the DVD cost was 20 dollars. It isn't a problem with an anime of 13 episodes (many animes only run with 13 episodes) but there are others that are like 25 episodes or even more; imagine how much it would cost to have the entire season and not including the other seasons. I would gladly watch animes on tv channels but in hispanicamerica we don't get many dubbed animes and the few that get dubbed have such awful voices.

the anime is not so bad (even though a lot of it is lame as hell), it's the j-pop soundtracks that kill me. even thinking about it sends shivers up my spine...

my response upon reading thread title: "good"

TreebucketLumi

Just out of curiosity, if you don't like anime, why bother posting on an anime thread? You just annoy those that do like it. You're entitled to your own opinion and free speech, but that doesn't give you the right to purposely make people mad by mocking something they like. If you're going to bash something do it in your blog, not in a thread where people who actually like it are talking. I say this to all the other people that do this too, not just you. I wouldn't post on a God of War thread, because I don't like the series, and those that do probably don't want to hear my opinions. It's a matter of respect.

I don't have anything against anime or its fans. I was just fakeposting (as I oftentimes do -- usually given away when I don't bother to capitalize any words or when I use unusually poor grammar, smileys, etc.)

Personally, I don't really like anime, or animated shows in particular. If I do like an animated show, most likely it's a Western animation. But again, I don't have anything against anime or its fans. It just doesn't really fit my preferences, that's all.

edit: also anime is gay lol

I don't understand why people keep saying this, you know there is anime before AND after dbz.

Take a good count at how many people are ignorant on the manner of anime, even with the internet right at their fingertips. ' -'

I don't think anime is "dying", but much like EVERY OTHER FORM OF MEDIA it's being tarnished. It's being tarnished by fans doing fansubs and fandubs and doing parodies. Anime has lost the magic it had 5-10 years ago, but that doesn't make it "bad". It's still a great form of entertainment. But much like any video game genre, the staples of the entertainment it built are sometimes more abused than subtlely poked in.

Sorry for coming down on you. That wasn't really my intention. It just annoys me when someone posts on a thread on a topic they hate just to rile people up. I was posting on a smash bros forum, and some dude randomly post "Smash bros is the worst game i've ever played, it really sucks" or something along those lines. I ignored it, but it started a very heated argument amongst some other users. Everyone is allowed to have they're opinion but some people need to learn the meaning of tact. no hard feelings, i hope?
