I still don't get it but I guess I have to let it go... Anyhow it is a good show but I still don't think we should be the ones labeling.


( I bet you like sour cream in your QUESADELLAS too) (j/k)

Enough with the food talk here people.

Sorry about that!

... Anyways since many of you don't think the avatar is "anime" How do you guys feel about Transformers and Robotech?

Robotech is anime.
Transformers is a border case because it was written in America but animated in Asia. I say it's American.

I still think you're all making this way more complicated than it needs to be ~_~;

But alright.

that is true the word anime is the japanese word for all forms of animations it just usually refering to japanese animation here in the west

I used to think so too, but after learning a few things about the series I don't know any more.

For example did you guys know that Robotech was a storie adapted with edited content and revised dialogue from the animation of three different mecha anime series: The Super Dimension Fortress Macross, Super Dimension Cavalry Southern Cross, and Genesis Climber Mospeada.

This was done by american company "Harmony Gold" to make the series more suitable for american audience.

but I do have to agree with tsurara no matter what we say we are never going to change each other points of view. So I guess we can agree to disagree.
