Anime vs friends

--- Quote from: suu_no_clover on March 01 2006, 01:03 pm ---This topic makes me very sad... unfortunatly, my best friends think anime and manga are unintelligent. I could ramble and curse on and on, about how their only exposure to it was Pokemon dubs, and Speed Racer dubs, but It just makes me sad in the end. If they catch me reading a manga, they'll go into the 'why do you like that crap' ramble. When it's Tsubasa, I get SO mad.... they recognize that I read this series all the time, and the only glimpse they got of it was a page they read over my shoulder once. It was rather unfortunate that their onl exposure to my fandom was the page when Syaoran-tachi is seperated from Mokona in volume 2, where they were speaking gibberish. They officially think that my fandom is retarted. :dodge:
Funny how this same group of friends mocked my being a girl scout today as well... *sigh*

Oh I HATE it when friends come in at the wrong time while reading manga. There was this one guy who saw me reading Ranma 1/2 and thought it was something pornographic. Man, it's awful! ><
Yes, dubs on tv are what give anime a bad image! And what's really bad is when they don't even use the word "anime" and instead use "Japanimation". Yuck!

I am the only one that loves Anime, and since I know they HATE to know about it, I keep my mouth shut and I talk about it here in the forums. :)

The one time I went into the manga store with my non-anime liking friends, and what do they pick up immediately and start reading? Love Hina. >.>
One of my guy friends likes anime, but not manga, and recently I've turned another friend into a Tsubasa and Furuba fan (and, inadvertently, a KuroxFye fan ^^9 ) but that's all. The whole anime/manga culture is fairly small over here still.

Well some my IRL friends like it but some...don't understand of my hobby XD
Some of my friend I don't tell nothing about anime or manga (I only say that I'm computer nerd), they understand..some of understand something of anime and manga and some knows everything (same nerd like me, wee XD)
At school we barely speak about anime or manga...very lamely..sometimes..
