The majority of my anime geek friends and black/half-black. Actually, most people I've ever met that are into anime are black. I've never thought about it before. Huh. Well, anyways... Really? That's pretty cool. Introduce me sometime XD QUOTE Brandon Saunders, for one. Samuel L. Jackson starred in AFRO SAMURAI. Ha ha ha ha. Not to say that all black people don't like anime, just that I've never come across any. But then again, I forgot to mention that I live in a mainly Asian community, so I suppose I don't really have a right to talk. QUOTE I dont like anime and Im asian Again, not to say that all Asians like it. There are some who I don't dare mention anime around. QUOTE lol, naruto is usually considered low tier as far as anime goes It is, but I don't think it's because the series itself is bad (I liked it for 200something chapters, then stopped when I realized I had 200something more to go @_@ and got interested in other stuff). The otakuness can be out of hand sometimes. |

Ah, I like Anime and I'm Asian. ^__^
My black friend likes Anime and is totally obsessed with Kpop. It's really weird seeing her sing in Korean, not that I speak it, but it's still weird. I know my Indian friend likes Kpop too. And my Spanish friend also likes Anime/Kpop. She can even write in Hangul. xD |

i dont' see people going crazy over daffy duck, and he's 12 times cooler (and blacker) Donald duck wants to tell to tell daffy duck to put on some damn clothes. Manga is what's published in book form. Anime is, well, animated. Manga is more comics or graphic novels. Anime is actually just the japanese word for animation. Some people actually say "anime" is a genre, but really it's just Japanese animation. Genres are more like fantasy, romance, sci-fi, etc. There are different genres within anime as well. Like Gundam Seed is more sci-fi/mecha, whereas Rurouni Kenshin is more historical/action. It's just that there is a distinct difference in style when you consider japanese animation and um... American animation? lol. What I'm saying is that the style in art, storytelling, and characterization is quite different. You have to consider the cultural differences between Japan and the U.S. and how they shape animation. Once finds sum'n he likes, he'll know what is talkin' 'bout. |

I like anime because the overall stories/plot of the shows are so much better than MOST cartoons/shows I watch on my own TV. Idc if they're cartoons.
Consider Death Note, for example. That's one really popular show that I'm sure everyone's heard of. I think the whole show itself is a genius concept. Well, now overtime.. it's kind of like, 8.5/10 instead of 10/10 if I were to rate it. :P AND I only know a couple of black people who are into anime, but it's all Naruto. >_______<" ROFL. This black guy I found hot became suddenly okay to me when I found out he loved Naruto. Sooo freaky. And most Asians I know are more into kpop than anime, actually. I'm, like, alone on my boat of anime. :P Mostly white people in my school are really into anime, but they're to a point where it's otaku-scary. |

I think it's a culture thing. Not to be racist, but I've never seen/heard of a black person showing any interest in anime or manga. The few white people who do are often looked upon negatively, which I think is grossly unfair. Asians who are into it are somewhat normal. I agree. |

Wow Chobits. That was like THE thing for junior high asian girls back then. I <3 the perverted humor in Chobits. I also love how most of cB thinks I'm a girl, it's all good. @ the one guy who hasn't heard of anything I listed, yeah I think you live under a rock. If you're willing you could download them through torrents. |

THANKS, AC. I know plenty of Black people who are anime-otakus. Someone should draft up an anime starter kit. Personally, I've been subjecting people I know to Death Note this past week. Each person was an "anime hater" but they all liked the series. Now, little by little, I'll introduce them to more. Death Note is great introductory anime, in my opinion. It's quick, to the point, the writing is fantastic... hell, I don't think I have anything bad to say about the series. I'm not anime obsessive, by any means. However, there is some anime I truly adore. I'd say hop into Cowboy Bebop, because even if you don't like the anime, the music kicks ass. |
