Most of us here are anime fans but that doesn't mean we think it's all good, does it? What sort of things bother you in anime. What aspects of anime really irritate you?

CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
What do you hate about anime?

I used to hate the fact that the characters mouths didn't move properly, but I've grown to ignore it. Also, though this really isn't the fault of the anime, I hate it when they edit the Hell out of a great show when they bring it to America.

Their pretentiousness. I have no problem with fiction being preachy, so long as it is well done. But anime in general are not just preachy; they are megalomaniacal. They are obsessed with drawing cheesy morals from every possible situation.
I hear Japanese people are some of the most non-religious (despite their amazing variety of traditional superstitions) on earth. I wonder if this is their way of making up for that void.

I agree :nods:Dawn Marie said:
My best friend is REALLY into Dragonball (and all of the others like that....Dragonball Z and some others I don't care to remember the names of) but I can't stand it! O well, to each one his (or her) own! 
What I hate most about anime is when the characters have squeaky voices. It takes away from the show. For example, in one of the Sailormoon movies, Chibiusa has the most annoying, high pitched voice ever (I know, I know when DOSEN'T she but this time it was noticeably worse.
). It was a really good movie, but I can't stand to watch it more then one time cause that voice of hers gives me a headache!!

Japanese are religious but not really "religious". Like most Americans they just blindly follow their national religion's (Shinto, Buddism) practices when their tradition sees it fit. Not because they think it's right, but because it's just expected in their culture. But I think the morals and stuff in anime are just things that they throw in there to make it more interesting. It bugs me too sometimes cause sometimes its obvious that they aren't really expecting people to follow it.

well.. the biggest problems are fanservice and the implication of homosexuality in some characters.

I hate how certain series drag out forever. Like when I was watching Dragonball over 10 years ago. Slam Dunk had the same problem, or any sports anime for that matter. Naruto has that problem now.

- I dislike it when anime series are released and you have to wait a month or two for each DVD.
- Another one would be the cost's, for some reason prices have been going up lately.
- I dislike it when people make copies (bootlegs) and sell them to make a profit for themselves, while the companies that produce/destribute the anime get nothing, but I still think its wrong, in my opinion.
- When they stop making a series or end it to early, so the ending actually has no ending to it.
PS: but still these are all my opinions, sorry for the long list though

Fan service and stupid humor. Then again, if someone asked me what the biggest problems with american movies was I'd say T&A and stupid humor. So it's really not that different...

I'd say my least favorite things are fanservice, over use of sexual themes, length of time for the DVDs to come out, never being able to find the soundtracks at cheap prices, and when the stories have good messages but are so drenched with occult themes that you can't stand to watch them.
Anime is just Japanese cartoons! That's the definition of anime, cartoons. The only thing is that the Japanese put more effort into their cartoons. They are basically animated movies, complete with awesome music made just for them. Anime also has themes for every age group, not just for children like in America.

true. i much prefer the term animation then cartoon, but you'll have to borrow the 'cartoon' term in order to help people to understand.
