| Like for example: Kids copy moves from Naruto Some would think they're ninjas Others would copy a character's expression or the way they think. |
| I think everyone is influenced by what they watch, it's just that in a lot of cases it's not about simple copying. For example, you watch a show about friendship, and it reminds you how important your friends are. Or you watch a show about war and it makes you think about hardship. Or on the other hand, maybe you watch something and disagree with it. Or your tastes change as a result of watching something. Or if you're an artist or writer, it influences the kind of work you want to do (stylistically, or what themes you favor, etc.). It also affects habits. I do the scratching the back of the head/placing a hand on the back of the head thing sometimes like some characters. Supposedly it's a masculine Japanese gesture for when you're a bit embarrassed. |

| I've seen this topic before. At least once. DarkBusterCloud said: I fuck everything that moves.Ontario said: YESMakoto Itou. Oh wait. |
 |
| If you want to get really obvious, anime influenced me to join this forum. So yes, anime has influenced me. |
 |
| Anime influences everyone to do things. I haven't had any anime that influenced me yet. When I was younger, I use to watch Yugioh. I was influenced to have this angry look on my face because I've seen how tense some of the characters were with angry looking faces. |
| nope nothing like that except for me liking Dango Daikazoku desu~ ^^ |
 |
| I answered this before I think. Let's just say I can't stay too long inside a school. |
 Waratte Oemashou Sore ha Chiisana Inori |
| Everything influences people, anime is no different. |
| It influences my stories or my drawings, but I think it´s not like some kids are doing ninja moves. The only thing i know is, that here in Germany the kids are sometimes wearing clothes from naruto (headband, etc.), not more^^ |
Cuteness Overload >3< SuJu fighting! ;3  |
| Beck got me back into music. Gurren Lagann got me motivated to do better in school and in life. |
 |
| Yes. For one, I am looking to learn the japanese language. Hikaru no Go and Shion no Ou have made me more interested in the Go and Shogi games. In other words, some anime have made me more interested in themes I had never even heard of before. |
 |
| After watching Prince of Tennis, my friend got into playing tennis. After watching Yakitate!! Japan, I eat alot of bread. |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
| We had this abnormal schoolmate in high school who's into Dragon Ball. He does that hadouken thing occasionally so we just make him cry every time he does that. It was funny. |
| desu? |
| Looooong time ago. I would have to say that I was influenced by a bunch of 'neko' anime and dating games. When I was still going to HighSchool I made a pair of cat-ears by cutting up old clothing, using a glue gun, and putting them on a black headband. I wore them to school for a week. |
| Well, not so much. Watching Prince of Tennis did make me motivated to learn about tennis. XP |
Animanga Blog: -ALPHANoX- PROJECT Like anime, manga, otome games or other fandom? Then why not join me in -A-P and be one of the co-authors? ;D PM me if interested xDD♥  Love me, Hate me, I don't care as long as you're with me |
| Sometimes, if the character acts or thinks a certain way that impresses me, then once in a while it makes me want to act that way as well. |

 |
| yep |
 |
| Golden boy has a great influence. who doesn't want to go around and working with random jobs? handy boy at a software company, working at a ramen shop, pool teacher. i want his life, man. |
| i make refrences to Haruhi and Death Note sometimes to confuse my family (they have no idea what im talking about, lol) dont know if that counts. most anime and tv shows make me think, and may affect subsequent daydreams i have, but i consider that normal |
| Anime makes me smile! :-) |
| Nodame Cantabile brought back my interest in the classical music genre. Hopefully someday I'll be able to play violin again. |
 |
| Let's see, a good amount has influence my thought of people and the world sometimes. Some characters give some amazing speaches and have good opinions, so yeah you could say I agree with them sometimes. They surely raised my expectations of some things, lol. |
 |
| One Piece seriously makes me want to buy a boat, try and find two girls with large chests, a guy with a long nose, a cyborg, a teaching skeleton, a guy who can speak with a sword in his mouth, and a cook, and sail around the world until the end of time. This would make my life complete and I could die a happy man. |
| Anime inluenced me in that I say japanese phrases somtimes [out loud and in my head] but I can't think of anymore... I watch it a lot though so there must be something! A few theme songs I really got into thanks to anime though, like the theme to Maria+ Holic, xxxHOLiC, Shigofumi, Death Note and others, so it partially expanded my music library for a start. ;) |
| "LET'S HOSPITAL!" |
| BELIEVE IN ME. WHO BELIEVES IN YOU! |
 |
| It influenced my clothes lol i buy amuto like clothes |
 |
| It influenced my clothes i know buy 'amu' like clothes |
|
| Yes, a number of series including Code Geass R2 Gundam 00 Gundam Wing |
 |
| Pain's godliness. Lelouch vi Brittania's badassness. Simon the Digger's everything. Fuse all 3 together and you got me. Without all the powers........... |
 A Hinatard's animelist. |
| I actually did a paper comparing Macbeth to Higurashi... not that my teaher got it, but hey, I got an A. Anime has influenced the way i write tremendously, plus i owe the fact that I now plan to become a psychologist partially to Higurashi/School Days/Chaos;Head/Elfen Lied/[Insert psychological anime here] because they got me interested in the human brain. Plus the random quoting followed by everybody staring at you (unless somebody else gets it, then everybody stares at the both of you.) |

Plus the random quoting followed by everybody staring at you (unless somebody else gets it, then everybody stares at the both of you.) For a presentation in my Psychology and Literature class in high school (senior year), I did an analysis on Gainax's "Wings of Honneamise"- and this is back in '95-'96, when anime wasn't as mainstream as it was today... |

| I´m a sucker for Martial art anime and ”weak friendly underdog become stronger and beat bad guys” kind of anime (you know what I´m talking about). I also like to exorcise and train martial art so when I see a good fight (close combat fights), I always get excited to train myself and become stronger. q-_-p |
| Yeah,I have quite alot. Acting like i'm boxing from time to time:Hijime no Ippo Jutsu moves:Naruto unleashing Bankai:Bleach Just to name a few. |
| I confess, I also copied! Or well... Not really... But a little. My character already was kinda like Haruhi Suzumiya and Konata (hyper girl, addictet to anime, don't make homework, good grades, wants everyone to listen to her and search for rare things and my looks fits to Haruhi) but when I saw Lucky star en The melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya I started to act even more like that! But I don't care... The coincidence is that I have a friend who looks like Mikuru and also has the same personality (she only has a bigger mouth-.-'' but I still win!) O and I have copied the move from Haruhi where she sticks out her tong and do the thing with her eye. |
| 祇園精舎の鐘の声、諸行無常の響きあり。娑羅双樹の花の色、盛者必衰の理をあらわす。 おごれる人も久しからず、唯春の夜の夢のごとし。たけき者も遂にはほろびぬ、偏に風の前の塵に同じ。 The sound of the Gion Shōja bells echoes the impermanence of all things; the color of the sāla flowers reveals the truth that the prosperous must decline. The proud do not endure, they are like a dream on a spring night; the mighty fall at last, they are as dust before the wind. |
| I Guess Not Influenced! Just that when I watch NANA! By watching her makes me smoke alot~ |
You Know You Want My Muffin!  I Know U Do! |
| I use some things in the rpg's I have..? Not whole stories and such from anime's, but parts of plots.. I change them, of course, but that's what I do |
 |
| no, but my one friend picked up smoking from watch Cowboy Bebop. Same brand too. |
| Legend of the Galactic Heroes forced me to reconsider my stance on aesthetics. Urumi fortified my anima, in jungian terms. Haruhi made me more religious. So yes. But only rarely, since great art is quite rare. |
