teruu said:Anime fans will often deny the reality of the situation but there are a lot of bad things anime teaches you. I see tons of people post here about how naruto taught them to never give up and hope and yadda yadda but never have I seen anyone acknowledge all the bad things anime teaches. Tons of users here use words like 'rape' liberally, like when someone posts 'This anime girl is in front of you, what would you do?', they will often reply with rape. Rape is nothing to joke about and neither are the negative qualities anime spreads. It's time to stop being blind and recognize that anime isn't all that good as many people make it to be.
Sexualisation, sure no one really cares.. till its hyper sexualised. — characterized tits. Not female characters with any personality to speak of, but supple, bouncy, comically large breasts. The women these breasts were attached to were not represented by their spectacular intelligence, or their bravery in battle so much as the fact that they were in possession of breasts (and in a few cases, an ass). Where the fuck do you see that in TV shows? Or games? Tomb Raider? Meanwhile Code Geass
Often times people will say that these qualities only affect a few people but there is a reason it's used by other people to ridicule anime. Anime fans will always blame the actions of the affected otaku, that he is just a rare case who has his social interaction harmed by anime and never the source of the problem. Which is pretty understandable considering they love anime, but being oblivious to the negative traits of anime is just plain ignorance.
Edit: It is with great sorrow that I say most of the people here have completely missed the point which is actually pretty simple. They are so offended by the fact that their beloved anime has negative qualities that they will point out every single other thing with those qualities.
It's like a serial killer justifying himself by saying 'But that dude killed more than me'. It doesn't change a thing and it's irrelevant. Lord Jesus help you all!
