Never mind. For some reason, Nintendo just gave me a notification for a system update from October 6th, 2014. The update that introduced themes... Talk about :079:.

Oh it's fine. Personally the trick I use in anime conversations such as this is to pretend that I know what they're talking about.
It's worked for me so far (though hopefully they don't catch on soon).
Well right now I wanted people's opinion actually.
The majority of those aren't even close to anime.
Of course, imo they are superior.
Oh all this time I thought they were anime haha oh man, which of them aren't? Btw I forgot to mention Dragonball, Dragon Ball Z, tiny bit of bleach and naruto
Hard to take you seriously with that kid icarus avatar...
...,how? I think they're very normal looking people. Besides they're two of my mains

I don't watch anime, and if I do, it's not as much as you would expect. I'm not that type of guy lol.
I would rather watch it over the unoriginal shows broadcast in TV, however.

What if she becomes a queen? :smirk:

Did a new system update get released for the 3DS? I just got a notification about it saying stuff like new themes included and whatnot. Welp, time to check...
I think it's just the Theme Shop that updated. The next "big" 3DS update is coming out next month. You know, the one that contains amiibo settings and all that. Pfft never mind lol.


And a new economy. A cool one.
Imagine a fight between him and Senator Armstrong from Metal Gear Solid.
The moves will be shown for sure.
Falcon instead of George Washington? Mind is super extremely blown. Agreed x9000.

Despite my kawaii avi, I rarely watch anime; I watched the basic ones like DBZ, DBGT, Saint Seiya, InuYasha, YuYu Hakusho, Cardcaptors, Corrector Yui, Pokémon, Ranma 1/2, some of Gundam Wing, Attack on Titan and... one called Sailor Moon or something.

Yet people call... Avatar an anime? That only makes me want to hit them

But I never saw anyone call american made show anime, always cartoons.
That's just word association. I know little to no people call non-Japanese animation "anime". But why does animation have to be produced in Japan to be called an anime?

I base Avatar: The Last Airbender as an anime on the grounds that:
  • It's drawn in an Anime-esque art style.
  • Its close links to Eastern mythology and culture.
But I consider it a NON-Traditional Anime. But an anime nonetheless.

I'm just sharing my thoughts. I still call cartoons cartoons and anime anime. A lot of people just don't realise what the origin of the term 'anime' is. :p

I think of that as a non-traditional anime too, but for different reasons:

  • Anime-esque art style again. In fact, it looks A LOT more anime than Avatar, but in 3D.
  • It's humor and certain sequences borrow from anime tropes.
  • It's 90% women in an action anime.

My god, you guys should look at the staff members. We got like 20 or so new mods over the past week. It's crazy.

I mean wow, I browse pretty much all the smash 4 related sections (except video) and it is amazing how many people who I either talked to or respected now have a red username. My mind was blown so many times this past couple of days, give me a break whoever is hiring all of them. :p

I googled that and this is what came up

Is that what your talking about?

That is some horrible animation
Believe me, I thought that too when I first saw it.

But they improve the animation TENFOLD in Season 2. Watch the the first episode of S2 with the foodfight sequence.

To me, cartoon=anime and vice versa.

No matter what weeb say.

However, I still tend to refer them differently when talking to others.

Some of the ones I watched are "anime influenced" I guess like Teen Titans. And even though Pokemon and yugioh were my childhood I also dearly miss Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z. They kinda just died off../:

I wonder how 'genuine' that is and not that he did that because he was scared the 'cult' would post his personal details anyway. I mean, who spends 100s of dollars on stuff you say you hate only because you want to be seen as a troll?
