this

>>279722824 (OP)
I’ve been watching it for as long as I can remember. Life without it wouldn’t be life.

>>279722824 (OP)
I love how they preserve the old style Disney abandoned.

the alternative is talking about video games with /v/ or the rest of the internet and personally i'd rather not

>>279725061
kek same here. even worst, the alternative would be playing fucking video games in 2025.

Most contemporary mediums are dog shit today. That being said, manga/anime is not much further ahead. Older books and novels are still my favorite. A big reason I like manga/anime is for nostalgia too.

>>279726907
I would rather read sangatsu no lion than homunculus.

they seem to respect animation as a medium more than the west does.

>>279722824 (OP)
Attractive female characters to masturbate to

>>279722824 (OP)
Variety, western animation is either kid stuff or sitcoms for adults.

>>279727424
I read Homunculus, and I like it. But I was only using that image to encapsulate my feelings towards the mediums of modern story telling, manga and anime included..

>>279722824 (OP)
Because is like a billion times better than any other entertainment media in existence, yes even the worst isekai you can think of, way better.

Because of Utena and Sailor Moon.

Animation will always be capable of more than anything on a camera
Hollywood demons keep America from realizing this by keeping animation juvenile if not infantile. Japan at least regards animation with some amount of respect, even if Japan at large has a lot of writing conventions I don't like

This image has never been attached to an intelligent post.

I don't. I just pretend I do to fit in.

>>279722824 (OP)
honestly and completely unironically, it's because there are no niggers yet

>>279729962
Sorry, anon.

>>279722824 (OP)
I like comic books. Manga is comic books with more attractive women.

black people love shonen and there have been black characters in anime since before you were born anon, retard.

I grew up watching burger/leaf/frog/britbong cartoons on the trio of cartoon networks + PBS. "Cartoons" were always pretty ugly with the one character who was kind of cute/hot/handsome in an abstract way, and usually pure comedy or slapstick, and aimed at kids except for the ones that came on Fox, MTV, Adult Swim, and Comedy Central (which got rarer and rarer), and even those were just "comedy/slapstick, but with the parental controls turned off and wanted to make sure you knew it every 10 seconds." Pretty much all action cartoons were based off of capeshit comics or fantasy movies, and "slice of life" is the norm anyway, but that really means retarded kids/talking animals/generic everyman doing retarded things. Also, 95% of them had stories that wrapped up at the end of the episode.
Anime at least looked sexy with actual boobs and jiggle physics even if the show wasn't outright porn, and violent but not Tom and Jerry or Family Guy or He Man but actual brutal violence, and a good number of them had stories that required you pay attention episode after episode. Plus it was Japanese, and I'm not Japanese, and Japan is weird, so that's cool.
I wouldn't have cared about anime nearly as much if Amerimutts weren't ruled by autistic 40-something Christcuck moms mortally afraid of the idea of their kids they ignore most of the day seeing a cartoon on TV that acknowledged that breasts or blood exists, or if TV networks let cartoons have longer running storylines. Japan did, therefore Japan won my attention, and the burgermutts have been seething about it ever since.

>all my favorite shows as a kid were either anime or toku.
>game that stuck the most with me watching my brother play as a toddler was ff7.
>all my favorite games I used to own were japanese games
I never stood a chance.
Another example is that there used to air 2 peter pan series when I was a kid.
A western cartoon and a dub of the anime peter pan anime.
I could not give less of a fuck about the cartoon, but I was always excited to see the anime and I hated that they aired the cartoon version more than than the anime version.
And this was all before I knew what anime was and all I knew about japan was that they ate sushi there.

maybe on /co/, don't think any Americans would give a shit here.

>>279731720
Americans finally caught up to making their own ""anime"" and it's the most globohomo shit possible that completely misses the appeal of anime besides the edgy violence, so be thankful we never filled the niche sooner.

>>279722824 (OP)
it's my comfort zone

Because anime looks cooler than most western animation.

>>279731524
Why browns like (You) love so much Dragon Ball?

I love Japan

>>279731833
It's also almost always horribly animated

>>279732461
Everyone loves Dragon Ball

>>279722824 (OP)
big anime titties

>>279732461
>characters that transform into whiter version of themselves
Being accepted as white and not jusy as a coloured person is every brown's dream.

>>279722824 (OP)
mainly because it's the only place to get consistent high quality 2d animation, art, and sincere storytelling.

>>279722824 (OP)
I like anime. Manga is for children.

>>279722824 (OP)
I love them for a combination of many different things, it would be faster to show you than to tell you: https://youtube.com/watch?v=oz49EaT1Evg
