I think it's alright. I don't like how obsessed people are with it, sometimes. Some people tend to take it waaayyy overboard. Like, chill...it's just a show. It is just a show. I like the different art styles between anime and animated shows. It's all so diverse, and I love it.
Honestly, I find anime rather entertaining to watch. Especially when it has a really good plot. I don't get the big deal of if anime is good or bad. It really varies on the series.
Depends on the series and the plot line. I personally find myself not a die hard fan, I watched like one anime series weekly when it was on TV, years ago. Other than that, I find it just another style of an animated cartoon. Some are easier to get into than others.
However, I am not going to lie, after reading this thread I just bought the first season/volume of my favourite anime series for some nostalgia kicks.
I love anime! I could watch it every living breathing second of my life if I didn't have anything of actual importance to do. My favorite of all time is Sword Art Online, but I love so many others I can't really list them all.
