[Anime Is Awesome]

Most anime does really suck actually.

I actually can't be "offended" by any of this. Because its only anime. Anime is not real. Why do people constantly defend fictitious characters and shows like they are people? Actually Psycho Josh I think I feel the same way you do. No matter how much underground, mainstream, subbed, and dubbed anime I watch it all feels the same. There is a horrible lack of Japanese culture in anime, it really is trash. I mean Japanese cinema there is nothing wrong with that, but anime is just awful these days. Why just the other day I try watching Samurai Girls and there was a shitty flashback sequence where the older sister makes her younger sister piss on a earthworm and she gets a bladder infection from it. I thought to myself "What the fuck Japan?" I am actually really disappointed by how shitty the quality anime has stooped to. I mean some of it was ok at the time, now its all crap. Or it starts out nice, then turns to shit. I really can't watch anime anymore. Some I can tolerate sure, but all the damn anime characters look the same. Dumb blonde anime chicks, samurai/ninja girls that beat up some pervert. Pink, blue, green, purple, white, silver, and every other rainbow color used for hair. Or even the half-animal "kawaii" factor that just shows up every so often. Need I mention how all the anime girls and guys look the same? They all seem like cookie cutter characters. I don't hate all anime but I see why you hate it so much. It is the most cliched, repetitive, moronic garbage I have ever watched which is why I can't stand it anymore. For a country like Japan that has one of the highest rates of SAT scores throughout the world, it boggles my mind why their animators stoop to such crap? If they are so smart why is their anime and manga so unintelligible? Why was 18th century art known as "manga" in Japan so good, and the modern manga now such crap? Why did furry art and the fandom ruin anthropomorphic art? I'll tell you why, its commercial. The same reason why Japanese art is such crap, why cartoons these days are crap, why modern movies suck these days, its all commercial. The reason why anime is so successful in the first place is because its crap. People just love to eat it up. The cuteness, the breasts, the short skirts, the hentai, the guro, the yaoi, the yuri, the dating sims ALL OF IT! All of it is mediocre shit. But people can't get enough of it. The violence and sex is what appeals people. People are amused by sexy anime characters beating the living shit out of each other or fucking each other. Its like Japan knows Americans are stupid enough to watch the horrible garbage so they keep making shittier, and shittier anime. Older anime that never tried to focus on sex and violence were long dead. Whatever good anime once did exist, either became shittier at the end, or newer shittier anime replaced it. Yes, I did once be an anime fan, and I also saw a lot of anime. Good sir, you are a genius, nothing sums up how I feel about shitty anime quite like you do. You are quite right, most anime does get at a desperate stage and does develop a shitty plot. I had high hopes that the more intellectual anime would suffice. But even that was pseudo-intellectual trash. Complete garbage at its finest. I despised Serial Experiments Lain and Evangelion. Apocolyptic Sci-Fi anime that tried to be "deep" when all it was doing was trying to confuse simple-minded modern consumerists into thinking it was something intelligent. Mere lies, all of it was lies. No good anime exists, because none of it was good to really begin with and if it was good at some point in time, there is not a chance possible that it is now. Anime gets worse and worse as years go by. And I do believe you Psycho Josh I do believe you have seen a ton of anime because I have as well and have developed the same hate for it as you do. Because no anime tries to change. They all stay the same, they all stay the same mediocre pile of shit as you say. It all turns into crap, or starts out as crap. It never changes. Its like a bad chain of video games.

[Charlie the Unicorn 3]

Bizaree as always.

But thats why I like it. It stands out and is always a fun thing to see. Glad to see Charlie was reunited with his long lost kidney. I was wondering where it went. XD Great job. This one was even weirder than the other two! Also funnier.

[8-BIT Waterslide]

Very cool.

I like how its not ripped off another game. That you made them yourself and stop-motioned them. It makes it very unique. The adventure the guy on the slide goes is fun to see. Good work.

[Promenade]

Good Realism!

It gives hope to animators everywhere that people will favorite other flashes that aren't copy pasta sprite animations or dumb stick figure collabs. Great job on the movements and the physical anatomy. The rough lines gave it a wonderful sketchbook feel. The faces had excellent proportions. This gets a favorite in my book.

[Girlchan in Paradise Ep1]

Very true in a lot of ways.

I like how it just nails all the annoying cliches I always hated when watching an anime. Although you gave a comical spin to it. So it made the flash all the more enjoyable. So yeah if any anime fans give you problems tell them to screw off. I am an anime fan and this made my day. But it is true. You got to admit it. Only a good maybe 2% of anime is actually enjoyable. The rest is serious business.

[Electro Gypsy]

Very nice.

I fell in love with the music. It was nicely done.

[Squaresville]

Hilarious!

I love the originality! The humor was good. I liked the animation. Very smooth. Good work!

[tWHYlight]

Awesome!

The book and the movie were both terrible. Thanks for summing up how I feel about it! :)
