A guy is trying to ban Anime becouse of what a few anime series' have, sounds a lot like Jack Thompson, but it isnt.

He says All Japanese Animes are "Smut" becouse of
-Underage looking girls, in scantalus clothes
-Sexual things involving said girls
-High Violence
etc

i think Otakus now have thier own Jack Thompson

Reminds me of this screwball that tried to make comics illegal back in the Fifties.Some nut named Wertham was leading it.He failed.Jack Thompson is failing.And this guy will fail too.No worries from me.

I'm not going to argue that many hentai are dirty and like what he is talking about. However if you do something at simple as look at the anime that is shown on Adult Swim scheuling period on Cartoon Network.

And violence... To bad, you want to fight the good fight and this means anyone. Start here, cartoons like the Power Puff Girls is violent. But hey all life is is confilice and really what's more interesting to watch, a verbal arguement or a fist fight? These guys are grasping at straws and really are not seeing that world is slow to change and if we've had violence on tv in the 50s what's going to make it go now?

Ok I understand. But just one question Why? I bet you 20 dollars if I showed you some of the japanese Naruto episodes (not the american ones) you would like it.

Amen to that, sam.

I really diskile anime. To me it looks like each episode cost roughly five bucks to produce overseas, and most of the costs go to the voice actors who get grossly overpaid for each recording session.

Here's how I percieve most anime:
-10 frames per second
- Everything winds up looking like "Speed Racer"
- People grunting and groaning while they get some beam of weird light on them. (Maybe it's nuclear radiation?)
- "Perfect Hair Forever" makes more sense
- Some 10 year old kid who somehow became the world's toughest fighter and now he's on a quest to get the seven shards of Urkel's glasses so he can open the Temple of Faulty Wiring and save his father's uncle's cousin's doctor's great dane's second brother-in-law. Then out of nowhere some guy with weird har and a huge nose flies up out of the ground to cancel out the effects of the Cheese Banana card. And all the while a hot dog is yelling "Do the lalalalalalalalalala!!!!!!".

I'd much rather watch something like a sitcom. And not any of that "Will and Grace" stuff. I'm talking about "The Cosby Show", "Fresh Price of Bel-Air", "M*A*S*H*", "Roseanne", the list goes on. Or maybe something that's actually animated halfway-decent like "Futurama", "Back to the Future" (yes they made an animated series, I need to track down a couple episodes.), "Family Guy", or a lot of the old Hana-Barbera (sp?) cartoons.

If you like anime, that's fine by me. Everyone's got their own opinions.

(oh and "reality shows" are bullcrap too. WTF is so real about 10 people on an island who have to eat bugs to survive while camera crews feast on grinders a hundred feet away?!)
