You should feel bad if you're an anime only watcher and or don't support the industry. Why kill the people who make what you love?

1 most of the stuff I watch is old: good luck finding a 10 year+ old show for a reasonable price!
2 If piracy was unavailable I wouldn't have spent 300$ or more on getting it legally. Have you seen how much "Lodoss war" is on amazon?

You get 50 shows every year. Doubt anyone will even remember what came out in 2015 in a few years time.

What about original anime like Code Geass,Love Live,Macross Frontier,Free and PMMM? Anime is not for the sole purpose of promoting the manga only.

I think the anime industry will prefer it if you buy the bluray/dvd to support the industry.

But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion.

It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist.

Because I don't read manga. And I don't care about the industry all that much. I still do my fair share of importing merchandise though.

Some people have a terrible selfish mentality. You don't force them to write source material for anime so why should you support them. If you enjoy something you should support them if you can. You don't have to spend $100 on some master collection, but buying the manga or dvd help a lot. I personally am not great with supporting anime/manga. Somewhat because I don't tell people I watch anime and not sure if I want a bunch of anime in my room. I have bought some of the spice and wolf LN. I plan on buying the novels when they come out for the irregular at magic high. I do try to support the creators even if its only a little.

About the industry, why do people say its bad? I have no knowledge of the industry so I am not sure of how it is doing currently or compared to 20 years ago. With the pricing, isn't t he pricing roughly the same as any show hear in america? Unlimited Blade Works the TV series is $20 for bluray for episode 0-12

I'm assuming you have a handful of anime you don't hate with passion since you're on this site in the first place. Did they come out of something else than the anime industry even though they're anime? How does that work? Are you afraid supporting your favorites will finance 'loli trash'? I'd like to see how your logic works since what you said doesn't seem to relate to the topic of wanting to support what you like.

I feel numerous anime fans outside Japan feel like they deserve something and think anime should cater to their personal feelings without supporting anything.

But supporting exceptions does not mean supporting what you hate ('the industry', apparently) but just the parts that you seem to like. I just don't see why only liking some series and disliking the majority leads to an absolute refusal to support the few things you like, but okay.

I've managed to find 9 volumes around my city. Had to go to 15+ different second hand bookstores. Can't believe people would sell this gem away. It's a shame I can't just find any volume of choice online :/

Don't get me wrong I like my favorite anime too and I wouldn't give a shit about my money financing "loli trash" (I suppose you're referring to stuff like Puta Madoka and Love Live?) if I supported my favorites

But look if I had to choose between supporting an illegally harsh industry whose animators earn less than your average university student and getting my favorite Japanimation legally and not supporting the industry and getting it illegally I'd rather just go with the latter and watch it die

Besides there's already a shit ton of anime out there so I don't think I'll run out of things to watch for a while

You as a source material supporter should feel bad for not supporting the sound director, series composition supervisor, producer, key animators, or character designers by lining their pockets personally despite their not so hot wages.

I honestly stop caring about your opinion after the dub argument. I don't try to ruin you, I just argue with you to see what you are like. What was the last time I actually try to make a serious argument with you after the dub debate? I just think you are just a troll that try to make people mad. No h8 tho. I just don't like you, but not enough to despise you.

As for assuming I was talking about Love Live and madoka magica. I wasn't even thinking about them. Love Live isn't really a loli show, so why would you think I was talking about it? I really don't want to debate with madoka magica since most of the time it's just pointless.

since I am at school and using my phone, I'm going to make it short. I'm not trying insulting you. The reason why I say true to the other guy is because I agree with him. It doesn't got to do with insulting you. If you feel like I'm trying to degrade you then I'm sorry if I make you think that. We never really argue about the industry, but the only time we actually argue for real is the dub part. When you insult my favorite anime, I usually reply in a stupid way. Which is why in the survey thread I reply with random response when I figure out it was you that was insulting ll and madoka.

The dub fans deal a lot of bs, give them a break.

Well you mentioned those two anime(and you quoted my name in your comment), so I assume you were talking to me. Also who is higashi?

But that's not the point. I don't really want to be in this drama. I'm sorry if you feel mad that I was "talking back" to you, but I prefer if we stop. I'll stop insulting you if you try to not insult my preference. I have a lot of thing to say to you, but I can't say much since I'm in my club and using a phone.
