My indifference to anime is underwhelming...

Walk into a Barnes and Noble, and watch the anime/maga fags near the manga shelf. Your blood will boil.

Meh.  I'm not exactly a People Person to start with, so differentiating between these peeps & all of the other types of peeps that really, really need to stay out of my personal space on my annual trip to the mall isn't really a big priority to me...

At the Barnes and Noble near my office, the shelves housing the anime shit are always totally empty.  That B&N is however a hot chick magnet, for reasons completely unknown to me.

Got a college nearby? The one I roam around in is near Wright State.

The chick employees fall under Ed's rules though:

Almost all bookstore chick workers are dogs.

The employees tend to be old ladies at that particular B&N who look like they are giant hippies who have 10 cats at home.

It's not really near any colleges so.... wait.... colleges, in Kentucky?  :rolleyes:

Judging from what I see in the two main comic store here in Copenhagen (Fantask and Faraos Cigarer) are 90% of the manga readers in Denmark female, in their late teens and early 20's, most of them quite good looking...

Anime I am not so sure about, it doesnt really seem to sell that good, guess it becourse most hard core anime fans download the stuff from the internet...

 My appreciation for anime is well documented. I'd have voted for the first option, were it not for the ridiculous nature of its phrasing.
It can't be helped...We'll have to use 'that'

You're obviously a fan of "Battle Royale"! :w00t:

God, I'd like to put you in Dachau.

Battle Royale isn't anime, it's a film, and it's awesome.  I bet most everyone here would like it.

It was a novel that was adopted into a manga. :contract: 
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

I like the Gundams.  Gundam Wing, Gundam Seed, Gundam Seed: Destiny and I'll probably like the new Gundam 00.

In the past, I did like Captain Harlock (Albator) and Goldrake (Goldorak), but then I was a kid, so its normal ;)

I've seen Blood+, didn't really like it.
I've seen a couple others, but generally speaking, I'm a fan of sci-fi, so naturally sci-fi stuff has more appeal to me than demon fighting ninjas.

Can't stand the little schoolgirls having sex with tentacled monsters though.
I don't do meditation.  I drink alcohol to relax, like normal people.

If Microsoft Excel decided to stop working overnight, the world would practically end.
