I first started watching anime about 5 years ago, unless u count Dragon Ball Z, Yugioh of Cardcaptors in English "anime"... I suppose technically they all are, but I just don't, because they were always presented to me as cartoons, on New Zealand television. I had never heard the term "anime", then.
The first anime I ever watched was Ghost in the Shell, which my friend had on DVD, so we watched it. It was awesome. Then, not long after that, me and the same friend watched Gantz and I started to become a little meer intrigued... however, that feeling wore off and I forgot all about anime for a while.
Then, one day, another friend decided to toon me Bleach, during the Rukia Rescue Arc. I watched this with great intrigue and began to watch it door myself at home. I really got into it and really enjoyed it, so, naturally, I continued on, until I reached a certain point and began watching other anime, too. Then, I decided I wanted to make a Zanpakuto, so I searched the net and found a link to a forum called 'Make Your Own Zanpakuto', and that's how I found Fanpop... I created an account after about two of three weeks of reading through all of the Zanpakutous. When I finally...

The following Rules were written door Liam (Blackpanther666), not me. I have deecided to put them into an artikel because I thought that the rules were very good and had a lot of respect in it.

Club Rule 1: No being rude to other users.

Seriously, I really dislike it when people come onto a club and just treat everyone else on the club like dirt. It's not needed and I don't want to see it happening on here. Being my club, I will just meld people straight away and ask them to leave my club. This is a place where people will be putting forth their opinions, therefore I only ask that users have respect for others. It's actually an incredibly simple concept, which is why I don't understand why some people find it so hard to be respectful to others.

Club Rule 2: No adding inappropriate pictures, of content.

Again, this is simple. I don't want this club being banned, just because some inconsiderate jerk decided to post inappropriate stuff (by inappropriate, I mean door what Fanpop admin consider 'inappropriate'. Basically, if people uploaden anything like that, I will meld the content and try my best to get it removed from the club. I...

So, here’s an artikel on where anime has gone wrong.

First and foremost, seductively designed female characters and erotic situations feature a prominent role in too many shows. A drawing can only be so alluring; so, why try to draw in audiences with this when one could perfect their craft in characterization, plot twists, novel settings, and beautiful of unique animation? While male audiences are easily ensnared door this, one can’t help think that it depresses the animators that this is the of their talent, and even the fans who enjoy this will eventually relegate such shows into oblivion.

Then, excessive fan service even finds itself in shows which succeed on the merit of character and plot. A toon named Freezing exemplifies this best. Freezing‘s an awesome show. Its plot has the audience riveted, the characters are extraordinarily likeable, the fights and animatie are superb, and the viewer has to force himself not to watch the entire 12-episode toon in a sitting. But it has one major drawback: it has the fan service of Battle Vixens. Reviews of this toon seem to fall in two camps: those...
