I like some anime: Spirited away, Akira, princess mononoke, ninja scrolls to name a few. It has to be real special to draw my interest or be gory as eff like ninja scrolls.

i like Shin-Chan, Paranoia Agent, Bleach, mostly the stuff that comes on Adult Swim..


Shin Chan is like this funny family-guy humor show about this little 5 year old and his family and friendss who live in Kasukae in Japan...

Episodes on youtube... check 'em out.

Anime these days sucks.

I refuse to watch an anime if it's made after the late 90s. I'll take hand-drawn, hand painted cells please. None of that computer CG crap.

I frequently mock them especially when they have spent so much time watching these shows that they can't manage to draw a house on the screen for their python first year comp sci course and have to copy each other and end up on academic probation because of the "whore" prof ( Thanks Flip! ).

I also enjoy rubbing their noses in it when they fail the intro course for their major because they play WoW all day, but thats another conversation all together.

So to answer your question, anime has given me many hours of enjoyment, but not from watching it.

I don't really understand the anime part but I understand the hours and hours and hours part. I was asian soaps for hours on end.

Not sure about doing it at university though, don't they restict internet use to "academic purposes only"?
