Description Seriously people.

I am disabling comments cuz I don't like arguing with people, it makes me very angry (yes I have probably have anger problems >.< )

I'll just give what I want to say here, and if you disagree, that's fine, but I dont' want to hear it.

art n.
the quality, production, expression, or realm, according to aesthetic principles, of what is beautiful, appealing, or of more than ordinary significance.

My definition:
Anything where the creator had the intention of it being so.

Anime is art. And I don't care if you think the fans are annoying, then complain about them, not the style itself. Art is very important to me and to other anime artists. Anime is not a singular style but a genre of styles. There are so many differences between different anime that if you put characters from one show (or manga) in another it would look very strange and misplaced. Anime is not a simple or easy style. It takes a lot of pratice and it also takes a lot of skill since it is coming from your own thoughts rather than reference. Anime shows are not stupid either. Some are, of course, but that goes for all things. Anime has many genres and many stories and though some are similar, there are some that are very original, as with everything. Anime is not copying someones style, because as I said before, it is not one singular style. I've seen anime that are very cartoony, almost old disney cartoony and anime that is very close to realism. People need to shutup and leave anime and anime artists alone. There's usually a reason something is popular and anime is fun to draw and beautiful as well. And it is NOT the most common art form on DA so don't say "it's everywhere" because it's not unless you're looking for it.

This stamp is not about fanart but anime art in general.

I think I've said all things that need to be said.

They should complain about those annoying fangirls/boys instead of the anime~ Im not saying every fangirl/boy but almost the majority of it~

Me being in the fandom for 13 years, I learned to groan and roll my eyes at idiocy on both sides... Mostly on the fan side because all fandoms breed fanaticism and idiocy in general - which as luck would have it, these types are the LOUDEST in the group which attract the negativity of others.

In the end it's cartoons and comics. Nobody needs to get angry over them. Just enjoy them.
If someone who doesn't understand it chooses to be a dummy, let them be. They'll wind down eventually, but everyone will always have a beef with something ridiculous.

Eh, I dunno. It has been getting on my nerves lately all the crap we anime artists have been getting... But there's always a critic for everything. Can't stop them from complaining, because even if we do do what they want they'll find something else to whine about. xD

lol, I know it sounds confusing, I watch like over 4 thousand people, and recently I've been getting journals that are like against anime's popularity, and the fact of fanart's spread, and people treating it like a disease, I'm just glad that there are other people that think otherwise positivily of anime again

p-o-c-k-e-t In reply to IM-SteelAngel [2008-01-27 05:22:47 +0000 UTC]

TEZZLE In reply to ??? [2008-01-27 04:29:29 +0000 UTC]

They're just mad because it's so popular and it's "Japanese." Last time I checked the internet was world-wide. I hate those kinds of people that it hasn't exactly clicked for them that the internet's not just for their country. Narrow-minded piss-ants. Also, THEY DON'T ALL LOOK ALIKE! There ARE similarities mind you, but if you took like a Naruto character and a DBZ character and an Inuyasha character, and put them in one cartoon, they would not look right together. Besides, ALL cartoons are anime. That's just the Japanese word for "cartoon!" Crap like Batman and Family Guy and what-not, they call that anime. So technically... EVERYTHING ANIMATED IS ANIME!!!
