Yes. There are even those who go to porn awards, and know the names of porn actresses.Grown men go to anime conventions?
Akira and Ninja Scroll are badass.
Funny that there are a lot of insecure people over here that "hate" people that watch what they enjoy.
I agree, I used to be a huge anime fan a couple of years ago but I just got enough of so many cliches and stupid repetitive BS they put, I feel I was watching the same repetitive shit over and over again, the only things I have been able to enjoy lately are the Studio Ghilbi films
Imagine knowing what Grave of the Fireflies and The Wind Rises and putting them on for a kid lol. One's a depressing, bleak, post-war movie, and the other's a slow burn romance sad story about a plane creator lol.
Other stuff that springs to mind is Monster and Now And Then, Here and There. I remember the latter being the sort of shit young people should never be watching.
