Well, I learned what is ETA (Estimated time of arrival) thru anime. But mainly anime teaches you "morality", as most anime come with "moral values" as one of it's attraction points.
Other than that, anime only teaches me japanese terms and culture ^.^ |

expanding your vocabulary? errr, I don't know if any specific anime teaches you anything specific like that, depends on what you want to learn about...
Japanese Culture:
- Bottle Fairy
- Azumanga Daioh
Psychology/Religion
- Evangelion
- The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya
Mythology
- May-HiME
Making Manga/Anime
- Comic Party _________________

| Yes, but the funny thing is I don't remember what words I learned or from what anime I learned them from, so I guess they cancel each other out. |

Trigun- I learned a lot of moral from watching this. Is it right to kill? Who decides who to live and who to die?
Gundam Seed- War is such a cruel thing. People can commit the most horrible acts on mankind. Hate, Fear and Ignorance are dangerous weapons.
Ghost in the Shell- What's the difference between people and machine when both can feel, express emotions and have individuality?
Those are a few examples of anime that taught me something. I'll add more on later kids. ---___--- _________________

| yea anime is indeed educational. it taught me how harsh reality is and taught me the virtue of being really quiet, not to the extent of being anti social |
