A: Good luck bro. I tried Japanese but just stopped. I kinda remember some of the characters anyway. I might try again... I found a good flash card site but I lost the bookmark.

I speak English, a little French and a little Irish. By a little, I mean I was taught it in classes I didn't pay attention in.

 

Q: I trust you like animu then?

Note: I technically took spanish, and french for a year in 7th, and 9th grade respectively. But I still don't know very much, so I didn't count them.

 

A: Not as a general statement. There are only about 6 that I really enjoyed, out of the 21 or so I've seen. I'm not crazy about it. But then again, I'm not crazy about tv in general.

 

Q: How much tv do you watch?

"If this can be avoided, it should. If it can't, then it would be better if it could be. If it happened and you're thinking back to it, try and think back further. Try not to avoid it with your mind. If any of this is possible, it may be helpful. If not, it won't be."

 

A: Not much. I used to watch quite a bit, until INTERNET.

I like anime as well, but same as you, I'm not going to conventions or bookmarking a million anime sites, but have enjoyed about 6 of say 21 I have seen, lol.

 

Q: What was the best you watched?

frt

A: (See Avatar). I could go ahead and list the 6 I enjoyed, if you wish.

 

Q: Do you wish?

A: I have seen your avatar and I do not recognize it. I would hazard a guess it's Death Note?

 

Q: I wish? (note; the question mark is just to make it a question. I think you already know the answer though)

A: In order of how much I liked them, here are my top 6:

 

1. Death Note (You guessed it)

2. Code Geass

3. Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood

4. Steins;Gate

5. Claymore

6. Gundam Wing

 

Higurashi and Elfen Lied were okay.

 

Q: What are some of your favourite?

A: In no particular order:

SAO (Sword Art Online)

Hellsing

Berserk

Bleach

Kyouran Kazuki Nikki

Ghost in the Shell

 

Q: What is your opinion on fanservice?

frt

A: If I understand what you mean, then I'd say it's fine, as long as it doesn't interfere with the plot, or atmosphere. But generally, I think the story should be told as it is, not in a different way, just to please the viewers.

 

Q: And your's?

"If this can be avoided, it should. If it can't, then it would be better if it could be. If it happened and you're thinking back to it, try and think back further. Try not to avoid it with your mind. If any of this is possible, it may be helpful. If not, it won't be."

 

I generally dislike it, as you never or very rarely see it in any other media. When was the last time you saw a flash of boobs for no real reason in a TV show, or film? For me, each time they jiggle or fill the screen for half a second it reminds me that a large majority of viewers are young adult males. And what do young adult males like the bestest?

 

Q: I wonder if they leave that stuff in when they are shown in Japan. I wonder what age group they are aimed at? What times they are shown? How they are generally viewed in Japan? By viewed I mean what place do they fill in Japan? Are they like cartoons here or like soaps or dramas?

Oh, well if you're talking lewd camera shots in particular, then I usually dislike it. I was in the same room while my brother was watching Highschool of the Dead, one day, and that was just... Well honestly, pretty disgusting.

 

A: I'm not sure exactly how they view it there, but I assume it is around the same as people view it here. Then again, "anime" is their word for "cartoon", so... I dunno. And I'm pretty sure those shots are in the original Japanese versions, as well.

"If this can be avoided, it should. If it can't, then it would be better if it could be. If it happened and you're thinking back to it, try and think back further. Try not to avoid it with your mind. If any of this is possible, it may be helpful. If not, it won't be."
