My avatar is totally anime
Also, furry versus weeaboo, there is no comperison. Weeaboos actually have the ability to be respectable. I would rather be in the same room as a person watching anime over a person in a dog suit any day.
You hit the nail on the head saying you're always super handicapped
Because all of your arguments are invalid. You automatically jump the gun straight to a guy wearing a suit or someone loving the dog because you don't know anything about the actual fandom other than the stuff you can easily insult.
If you've even met someone from the fandom, you'd realize about 80% of them are awesome normal people . Just how 80% of anime fans are the same. Each fandom has it's bad batches which everyone uses to insult each other, it's the way it works.
But lets just jump to the stereotypes because that's the easiest way to make you look cool. Lets not actually form descriptive arguments or even try to make sense of it. Lets just ride the drama train.
that's because the anime art style represents a physically perfect human being that's impossibly beautiful to replicate in the real world. wanting to represent yourself with someone who's physically perfect has been a staple of human society since earliest recorded history. it plays an absolutely critical role in marketing and public relations, and people have shown to be provably more receptive to attractive people regardless of what they were peddling.
i suppose next you're going to argue that "these people have love with humans, of course they dont understand!" but I guess at this point youre pretty much desperate to defend your special interest any way you can
You're resorting back to the fact that i want to forget animals, which is not a thing. Stop even hinting at that.
I'm not against the way that anime fans enjoy anime, or how they enjoy the display of "Perfect" characters. I'm insulting the people who think that a fictional character is their wife, and buy pillows to forget, and the ones who get off to anime children and are 32 years old. That's who i'm insulting.
I don't think you understood when i said i enjoy anime quite a bit as well, i just really don't talk about it that much. The style is awesome and the shows are equally as great. I have nothing against the people who just enjoy anime, let alone the mature art, that stuff is fine.
