I love it but there has to be a balance lol
Some anime people live in their own bubble of anime fandom, to the point of headbands, fox tails, daily cos play, and quoting a line or pretending to be an anime character every other sentence.
It is a fun world but not for everyone. I am the only family member into anime and some are too cheesy or strange.
But its like anything one may love a lot. I think he should stop proposing it on you and kid like that.
People who dont like anime are just as awesome as those who love it.
He should embrace your likes and dislikes as well.

I never quizte understood the appeal of anime. But more importantly, I never understood the obsession a lot of people have with it. Some people seem like they can't tell it from reality anymore. lol
I HATE it! I have friends who watch it and they akways talk about it and play J Pop music. And he's now learning Japanese. What annoys me most is they think they're experts on Japanese culture.
Also, honest observation. Most adults who are into Animae suffer from Aspergers or other developmental disorders. Like they have the minds of children.
Voted B... I could live with it if my girl were into it but I'm not an anima lover. I'm on your side :D

It’s not my cup of tea. I think the main reason why I don’t watch it is because of the stigma attached to it. Personally I think anime unintentionally gives the wrong impression of Japanese culture. Not saying there is anything wrong with anime or those who watch it.
I used to watch anime quite a lot 3-4 years ago, and I did notice the perspective others had on it so I just kept it lowkey with the people that also watched anime. I found it pretty easy to just get deep into an anime since usually, the writers tend to add a lot of background to the characters and the whole situation as a whole, so it's kinda therapeutic and entertaining. Tho again, I keep it lowkey.
I try it every now and again but it's soo shit! The stories are so boring and lame and always about teenage type love... BARF!!
Don't get me wrong, love animation. Love Akira which is a manga from 1988 ... I think it's spoiled me with regards to anime/manga because it literally blows everything else out of the water. The rest is juvenile, badly written crap... and it all uses the same colour pallet, which is fine if you're a five year old girl into ballerinas...I like anime a lot~ though a lot of the English dubs are terrible, I much prefer Japanese with subtitles and there's no censorship either.
I love Shokugeki no Soma, love hina, onegai teacher and Yu-gi-oh and there are loads more too! My boyfriend is into anime as well which is nice so we can bond over it together. I am picky when it comes to the type though.Actually dear Dizzy, I used to watch anime years ago, like Saint Seya, Captain Tsubasa, Initial Drive, etc...
Somewhere down the road of growing up I have stopped.
Maybe few silly funny cartoons from time to time, but that's it.
Lately, nickelodeon have been showing "The Loud Family". It is a cartoon with really short episodes, but it cracks me laughing out loud every time.
It talks about a family, where the boy has 10 sisters. Imagine the mess and funny moments :-DI adore anime and know like 20 other amazing people who love it too. My college even has a club dedicated to anime fans.
It’s fine to dislike anime since everyone has different tastes, but trying to change your boyfriends hobby isn’t okay. Instead, you should be happy for him that he has such a strong passion for it even if you don’t feel the same. Now, it’s not necessary for you to join him in watching anime, but at least respect his hobby and let him do his own thing.
A relationship between two people of different hobbies can work out as long you’re willing to compromise and work things out.I dont get why anime is such a turn off its literally just japansnes cartoons and unlike most ameica cartoons the shows come with life lessons and really end up teaching you something. Now dont get obssessed with anything watch in moderation but id love to let my son or daughter grow up and watch some anime instead of the booty shaking and drama of tv
Anime has different varieties for everyone. You just have to find the one for you.
Although, Death Note is the only anime I can say that, anyone would enjoy regardless of their preferences.
If, they are not into thrillers, that's a different case whatsoever.I'm not obsessed but anime just catches my interest more than a lot of typical Netflix shows. I definitely don't consider an appreciation of anime a "turn-off" lmao that's like saying people who read books is a turnoff, like what? 😂
I see absolutely nothing wrong with anime, I understand that's there is a stigma to anime and people peg it as some weird thing.
But there are so many different genres that practically anyone can get into it, you just have to find what you want.
like anything else just watch what you consider to be a educational and would be intriguing to your child if you're really concerned of its content.Anime is a broad collecting of Japanese animation. I typically only like ones that really make you think with clever plots. I don't enjoy the spastic battle related ones or childish or super dirty ones. Some are really really deep. For example my pic is from Log Horizon.
I find anime creepy and sometimes pretty disturbing. I haven't seen it much but the bits I have always seem a bit pedo or unnecessaryily sexual... Which isn't sexual it's a badly drawn cartoon.
I've been looking for good animes for ages, and so far I've only found 3 I thought were good.
Death Note, One Punch Man and Panty & Stocking. The rest has been utter garbage.I will watch from time to time if I find something worth watching. But I’m not going to dedicate any more time to it than I would to any other type of lazy entertainment.
I was very into anime when I was in middle school a bit less in high school and now I nearly don't watch it anymore. It's very rare for me to watch it now.
Anime is fantastic. It's an art form. It's a means of story-telling not bound by traditions. It's beautiful and I love it so much.
I don't get it at all. To me it's just cartoons. They're not even funny cartoons, like The Simpsons or South Park.
I have seen anime that put western tv shows to shame, but also anime that was put to shame by Teletubbies.
It's a complete crapshoot.
But yeah, anime is just a medium, it is bound to have some good and some bad works.Lol I just be a massive anime nerd right up to 23?
Funny thing is that some my friends obsessions with one particular show ( Yuri on Ice) had turned me off so much I don't bother so much anymore. Not unless the storyline and animation style genuinely grabs my attention.
And I think that's the problem with subculture surrounding it - fandom take it a step too far.
