mortified · Posted: Sun Mar 13, 2005 6:44 pm Post subject: Has anime changed ur life

the title says it all...
i'm wondering if anime at all has affected u at all..
if u can answer the following, do so, if not answer why..

has anime changed your
-way of thinking
-how u do everyday activities
-your lifestyle (this means trying to live like your fave anime character)
-if anime has given u a different outlook on the world
-or anything that anime has done to change you in general

for me even though im an avid anime fan i still have a life so i actually do things other than watch anime but for some strange reason i have an urge to eat with chopsticks, sleep on the floor and want to try kendo...

anyways that's my thing

Its hard to say really for my situation
Having a chinese life, we've already accepted animation into most of our lifestyles and way into our modern day lives. From young to old, we still connect with some form of anime representation.

Point is for me, I dont really take notice of it, though I do admit that I might be more otaku than the normal guy.

It's changed my life. I like to watch anime, go to conventions, edit videos, and do all sorts of things I would have never even considered if I had not gotten into anime. It has also changed the way my family views me. They now think that I am obsessed with anime, but that's only half true. And I do learn a lot of things by watching shows like Trigun or FMA. And I like the messages conveyed.

Anime has certainly made me sleep less...potentially caused me to get that b in math... Sad

i find myself losing the ability to express myself without the exaggerated movements and facial expressions from anime & manga... it's rather sad.

i used to spend all of my money on books. now i spend it on anime and books (including manga).

Sad

Being Asian... not really. I'd say Stargate changed the way I see the world more, though.

Most of my friends share the same interest in anime so I guess it effect my life in some ways.

honestly sometimes I wonder if my life got more screwed up than it was because of anime,
I mean anime/manga are great, but they take so much time away from me, I've became more isolated to the outside world....man i need to get out more
