lol, seeing as im one of the people who tease people for watching anime, i tease them bcus it is stupid. in my opinion. i was even forced to watch naruto one time and i hated it. it's just so stupid ! there are better tv shows out there that you anime fans can watch. go watch Friends ! s*x and the city ! lmao . your probably not into that . but i am just NOT into asian cartoon shows ,

Answer 3

i'm so sorry you have to suffer through that =( you poor thing.  At my school anime is acceptable.  Probably because 90% of the students are asian.  We even have an anime club at our school.  

People who act that way towards anime will never understand unless they give it a try.  I enjoy anime because the plots are very good, they're much better than western or American cartoons (although I do love Spongebob anime surpasses it) and there are so many classics like Totoro or Spirited Away!  People like them are just so immature about it, they don't even know that lots of people make good money off of it especially all artists who draw fanarts or sell prints or whatever.  Like at anime conventions in the artists alley they make so much money on commission! as well as pins, buttons, bookmarks, keychains, and t-shirts and more!  

Don't let those people bring you down >: just ignore them because they're the ones who are "stupid" where even if they may do well in school they're "stupid" in the sense where they're not open-minded to other aspects of entertainment.  

I know how you are feeling because i have a brother kind of like that who does not understand anime and why i like it. He thinks it's "stupid" too... but then again he spends all day playing Resident Evil 4, Grand Theft Auto 4, Halo 3, etc.! so I'm not so sad because at least i'm not the one wasting my life away!
