Why cant they understand that not everything in Asia has to do with Chinese and that anime isn't just some low-class cartoons?
What exactly are they discriminating against? Why do they feel that ainime/manga are just for little kids and arent able to accept the fact that they aren't age restricted in any way, and can be seen/read by older viewers? Why don't they know that the art and profundity of anime cannot be compared to a barren and monotonous reality? 1/4 of the world population on earth watch anime/manga. Japan is one of the most powerful countries in the world and possibly only second against the US.
Was it the right move to make a thread regarding a sensitive issue? Will it spark off tension, havoc and internal wars? I don't know anymore.. Z_Z

practically everyone at my school/in my town are so narrow-minded they think china is the exact same thing as japan, which irritates me even more. a few of my friends and i started a japanese culture club and we're automatically the weirdest kids in the school. needless to say, the club is small and open to all at the school, but it's still going regardless.
my mom thinks that the anime are only for little kids for some reason, but i know a few adults that watch the shows too. she tells me those people are bad influences, but i think she's just jealous because i actually have friends. XD
another thing, i personally think japan is a much cooler place than the us. i'm so sick of everyone saying "oh, america's so great because we're the shit," but the reality is that they couldn't be any further away from the truth than that. the us is a bunch of lies, and i can't wait until graduation. i'm gonna get a couple of friends together and we're gonna try to move to japan after our graduation. i'm sick of the narrow-mindedness of the people here in america. i applaud you for this thread. ^-^
