Some people think anime is “weird”, and seem to develop hate for the people who enjoy watching it. However, have they ever tried it? Many refer to it as a show for children, an “obsession” with Japanese culture, or even a hentai show such as Family Guy and American Dad.
However, whenever anime-haters comment on such things, they usually use words such as “refer”, “believe”, or “think”, which proves that they’ve never even tried experiencing it. Strange right?
This seems to happen because of one….stereotypes! Anime is depicted as a show for kids and if adults were to watch it, they would be deemed as “childish.” Unusually, people seem to have no problem with adults watching Disney movies because they’re “more entertaining.”
Furthermore, people also tend to tease people who enjoy cosplaying. For example, people tend to find it weird for those in their 20s cosplaying at an event like Anime Expo or Comic-con.
However I believe that many anime-haters don’t realize that there are a number of different anime genres. It can be nice and sweet like those idol animes or cold and bloody like Tokyo Ghoul. Thus, before judging anime, they should start researching its content. Furthermore, I don’t understand why people are so stressed about cosplayers. I mean isn’t kind of cool or interesting seeing people create unique things out of ordinary stuff like paper? To be fair, no one seems to be complaining about those wearing marvel or Disney cosplays…but they seemingly call anime-cosplayers “gross” or “strange.” Therefore, I would like to question how anime-lovers are different from Disney/marvel-lovers.
Because I know people feel strongly about their hatred towards anime, I won’t force them to like it, but I did do my very best to convince them to not hate it in this blog post.
In life, there will always be something that people will always dislike, so instead of throwing hate and mean comments, try ignoring them because it truly makes a difference in someone’s life when you don’t hurt them.
Although many people hate anime, I will always love it!💗 I know some can’t relate but watching anime helps me relieve so much stress (even though it’s a bit addictive 😜). There are many people who seem to hide what they love because of their fear of judgment but that’s always okay as long as you are true to yourself.
To all those anime-haters that ever lived… You can call me childish. You can call me weird. You can even call me a weeaboo, but you can never stop me from watching what I love most, anime!
