I know many here seem to be offended by this joke, but I thought it was funny. You sum up my feeling on Anime

I must admit, I thought the same thing.

For some reason, it reminded me of those guys that have old Hondas that dupe it all up with all that after-market customizing crap, replete with fire extinguisher, rollbar, and Asian writing on the side, but that's just me.

However, I am now further understanding the whole Anime thing, I guess. Not big into Foreign stuff, so it is still not my bag, and I definately will not be checking it out any time soon.

Of course, this is just my opinion, and I could be wrong.

Small. A handful of Disney and a couple anime titles. I'd love to pick up more Anime, but the price is too much of a wall.

~8-10%

Not much...15/150 is the current run. This'll go up hopefully after getting a bit more anime, anything Lupin III related, and some Disney movies that I like.

I'd say about 20% anime/animation. I am an animation fan overall. I have only select anime titles and series, but would have more if I did not have friends I could borrow from easily.

Virtually all the television shows I have on DVD are animated...South Park, Family Guy, The Critic, The Simpsons, King of the Hill, etc. Only a few anime essentials for me, like Ghost in the Shell.

I'd say probably around 60-70% of my collection is anime.

I think I'm in the range of about 35% or so animation/anime.

Might be closer to 40-45%

Currently...

The Animatrix (borderline anime?)
Family Guy Vol 1 & 2
Fantasia
Fantasia 2000
Futurama Vol 1, 2 & 3
Looney Tunes Golden Collection
The Simpsons S 1, 2 & 3
South Park S 1, 2, & 3
South Park BL&U
Todd McFarlane's Spawn 1, 2 & 3
Watership Down
Yellow Submarine

Anime = None

So, roughly - give or take - this month... ~ 8% or so.

About 25% of my collection is anime. About 10% more is other animation.

Almost none out of well over 500 discs. I have Akira and that's it for anime. I have Seasons 1-2 of the Simpsons but that's it for animated stuff. Absolutely no Disney/Pixar stuff-not my thing.

I'm prolly getting the Animatrix tomorrow so that'll really bolster my collection.

I dont even know how many DVD's i got...probably over 100.

Other than the REQUIRED animation (FUTURAMA) I own the Fantasia set.

Anime...well, i think it takes up like 5% of my collection (If that).


As for Anime...well, you just treat it like any other genre of moving picture entertainment. Some you will like while others you're just gonna avoid.

I would say about 10-15% of my collection is anime/animation. Thats going to change in the coming months with the release of Batman: Animated & Superman: Animated as well as buying some things that I have been planning on getting for a while now.

I like anime well enough, but I can't afford to try as many series & titles as I would like. The single disc movies are like $20-30 bucks and the boxsets usually cost a million bajillion dollars. These movies/series are really not impulse buy friendly.

Only about 35 (out of about 1300) titles are animation, mostly Disney and other U.S. titles.
