| Might have to wait a while on the next anime boom considering the complicated matters it has faced in recent years such as the economic recession, censorship issues and the whole Animation Age Ghetto. |
Heart_of_Storm said: This. Anime will never be palatable as a mainstream media format if it carries on producing shows about incestous sisters, sexualised lolis and women acting as vehicles for repeated pantyshots. Yeah, because the mainstream HATES sex fantasies. =P |
| you eternalx said: unless they stop the "for my friends" and all that friendship bs anime will never be so watched. and also something really important is the fact that the majority of the animes never get an ending. I introduced a few friends to some animes and when they wanted to see the next season and I told them that there is no next season and that probably there won't be one, they were like "...the fuck dude?" no one likes to pay for 1/5 of the story. I don't care if the animes have only 4-12-24 episodes, but make a muthafuckin ending to it. is it really that hard? I don't think so. so in conclusion animes won't get too popular unless they cut the friendship bs and make an ending to the anime that they started. P.S: I forgot to say, also never fuckin start an anime that is purely based on fan service or 50% (or more) of the anime is only fan service. lol you seem a little too pissed :P |

Not sure which anime you watch, but most of them get endings... also considering those 'friendship' anime are the most popular in the world (One Piece, Naruto) I doubt that's the problem. |
OtherGuyX said: Will anime ever be widely accepted or seen? Anime is already accepted, to a point. Outside of Japan it is a foreign show and will always be in the shadow of domestic programming. There will be a couple of super-hits that all the kiddies are watching but as a whole domestic shows will be watched by larger audiences. |

| At pretty much every school I've been to so far, there were a fair amount of weebs. In my current school, people in my grade as well as some senpais see anime as the cool thing and they all want to see more anime (to be cool). I've also seen some adults who were weebs, like that one teacher who almost killed me for calling him a weeb in class when he had a hxh wallpaper on his laptop (I wasn't a weeb back then). However, most of these weebs only watch mainstream anime, like hxh and demon slayer, since ecchi stuff is considered... inappropriate. So, yeah. At least here in Egypt, anime will be widely accepted. |

| really depends will the West start pushing back the fandom of anime in a corner. Even though Anime/Manga are telling better stories than the west (Comic books) There is a lot of people in the Western Comic Book industry to their best shun to anime/manga. Not admitting that the Japanese can tell better stories than the west. |
| What are you talking about? Ever since around 2014, Anime has become a mainstream staple. Now, practically everyone (at least in the US) knows about it. Whether they like it or not, is something else entirely. Anime is no longer associated with cringey Naruto running (I was one of those kids), no, rather it is associated as a whole with the Shonen genre. Basically, widely accepted (or for the very least tolerated) from plenty of crowds. Back in the day, admitting you like Anime, was like being labeled as a witch in the 1600s. You would be completely ostracized, "the weird one," even as an adult I'd imagine you weren't looked at as a fellow human being. Thankfully, you won't be crucified anymore (Unless you don't agree with AOT, MHA, Naruto, Dragon Ball, and Death Note all being masterpieces). The shift came mostly from this new era of shonen being ushered in. EDIT: Just realized the Op was in 2011, well that was pointless. |

| Its 2022 rn and anime is widely accepted and popular among the world |
 |
| It's not exactly "niche" anymore. Lots of shonen have reached mainstream popularity with normies by now and it's probably only going to grow in popularity from now on. It's whatever somewhat good but other times very very annoying. |
