    now that's not very nice. The OP just wants to state his opinion with only good intentions and you have to shove yours down his throat. You ought to be ashamed. :evil:

    Well anime at least tries to offer different ideas and storytelling for adults unlike the overblown and repetitive CGI messes that Disney and Dreamworks has given us the last 10 years. Pixar is the ONLY American studios trying to bring us quality animated films anymore. While there have been some western studios have tried to give us more mature films like Waltz with Bashir or Renaissance tend to get only a limited release in theaters (mainly to art houses and major cities).

    Again the people that think anime "sucks" again point to examples like DBZ, Pokemon, Yu Gi Oh, or Naruto that are AIMED AT CHILDREN. Granted these are edited as well and normally poorly dubbed so the casual audiences don't get the full stories or drama.

    Also they tend not to watch shows like Neon Genesis Evangelion, Cowboy Bebop, or Macross that contain adult situations, action, drama, political intrigue, or humor that I certainly can say that has remained under the radar to most western viewers. Also films like Akira and Paprika that are willing to have gripping stories and challenge the viewer mentally also tend to get thrown to the side because it's Japanese animation but have stories that just as good as any American or western film. Granted there is the foreign element (historical or cultural) that people might not get at first but I personally find I learn more about other cultures by watching there by watching there television and shows which I find interesting and I begin to understand it more each time.

    Certainly anime has it's fair share of crap and is far from perfect, but to be honest we Americans have no right to complain with amount of crap we given to the world in the last couple of years with cruddy remakes, reality television and other garbage.

    Again it comes down to balance and small doses of ANY genre. I love science fiction, fantasy, horror and animation but I do get burned out and you will start seeing repetitive patterns. It's also best to also look at sites, like Rotten Tomatoes, IGN, Mania, and so on, to see the various opinions that reviewers and fans have to say to give you suggestions for viewing or gaming pleasure. That is one reason why the internet exists.

    There are things I hate but instead of saying "_______ sucks" I try to give people advice and my suggestions for decent or watchable viewing. I try to tell people if a movie is a remake for example and try to encourage them to see the original or give my suggestions for underrated films for example after that it's all that you can do. All the hate/sucks blogs just cause wars that fill up forums with anger and slamming people destroying the reason why RetroJunk.com brought all together in the first place.

    PS
    Yes I do know the irony of me having an anti-Bay Transformers pic in my sig. :P

    but i never liked how all their ninja powers were gauged by a limited number of chakra or it was always limited. If you're going to have powers it should be almost limitless.

    TBH, that's one thing I do like about Naruto. They're not making the characters god-like and actually giving them some flaws as far as there powers are concerned. It's not like DBZ's Goku who would do some ultra super move and not have any side effects from using such attacks.

    Naruto is such an annoyance nowadays just like DBZ was.

    The company that was responsible for getting me into anime was STREAMLINE PICTURES. I don't care for any modern day anime, but the old-school anime from Streamline will always be my favorites.

    The Japanese have more interesting plot lines but their animation isnt that great. I really dont like the style of animation but love the story. I only just got into some anime. Dragon Ball, DBZ, and Afro Samurai. Thats it for me.
