For the love of god, no! You weeaboos have to get a life! I mean, sure I love Japanese cartoons, but I also like cartoons from America and such. Animated sitcoms, cult classics, classic BATMAN for God's sake! A lot of them are intended for more mature audiences. Stereotyping American cartoons to be kiddy shows is asinine.
The great thing about animation is the variety of styles that can be applied. If everything was just anime-style, then that would take the fun out of it.

At least put "IMO" or "IMHO" if you don't want people to think you're an idiot.
No. Why the hell should I? Did you say IMO opinion when you said the manga is better then the anime? People state opinions like that all the time; it's something you're going to have to learn to deal with.

Quit being a baby, or don't post on this forum. Simple as that.
See, calvs? She figured out that we were just stating our opinion all on her own, with no help from us.
She's getting inexplicably emotional about those opinions, and she apparently didn't read the part of my post where I mentioned that InuYasha doesn't have a proper ending, but still ... vindication!
Whatever. That's why I hate typing things, people can't tell what you mean...I wasn't getting emotional at all. I was also stating my opinion.
And, it sounded like you meant animes such as Inuyasha didn't have proper endings therefore you were assuming Inuyasha would too. I guess you just didn't make that as clear as you could have. 🙂

You cannot prove that the manga is better then the anime. You've gone from being simply silly to being completely absurd. But I'm glad you've kept up your trent of insulting people in all your posts; in this wild and uncertain world, it's good to see some things remain constant.

I was just making an offhand commen, not stating my damned graduate thesis. If you really want to know my problems with DBZ, you can read them in the "worst anime ever" thread (no, I don't really think it's the worst show ever), but I don't particularly want to derail this thread any further.
It's a progression, okay. American cartoons, psuedoanime/better cartoons, dubbed anime, subbed anime.
And you should expect that. Anime has more detail, because... um... how did my teach explain this. Most Asian cultures focus on the big picture first and then narrow it down to something key, thus they build up a story behind their animations. America likes to focus on one little thing and not expand, thus the absence of a plot.
The main differences between anime and American cartoons is that 1) art style and 2) anime tend to have overreaching plots, while most American cartoons the plot lasts a single episode, maybe two, and that's it.
Remember that anime are cartoons.
The thing with anime is that a majority of what is dubbed and shown on TV in the US is crap. Yeah, we do get some good stuff here, like Gundam, Cowboy Bebop, and Trigun, but the really good anime tend to be one season and that's it. Then you get stuff like DBZ and Naruto and Inuyasha that just goes on for-freaking-ever and isn't even that good. Also, most anime shown in the US is, as I've mentioned, dumbed down and edited and marketed at a much older age group than it was originally intended to be.
But the fundemental differences between anime and American cartoons are very few, and one is never going to replace the other.

Oh, forget all of you!!! That is all your opinion! Yes I understand it's long and gets a little repetitive, but Inuyasha is in no way a flat out bad show! And Inuyasha as a character is definitely not lame! And when it ends, it'll just have a bigger bang!
Oh and well said Lana.

we still haven't heard you explain why manga is always better than anime no matter who you are
american cartoons are going through a major BE MORE ANIME-LIKE phase, but hopefully Don Bluth will make some amazing come-back and change that
Originally posted by Kayne ArcheronThe Battles aren't ragged out, they are more to the point. The name of the characters are more original. WAYYY better Better characters (more depth) More to the story. I can go on forever, but I'm busy.
