WHAT THE F.
I truly am shocked to the core.

Some one -please- explain to me what on earth you people like about it.

This is like some horrible nightmare where i went to bed and woke up in a world where mediocrity was suddenly showered with praise.

No one cannot like Azumanga Daioh. It's impossible. Azumanga is like the most impossibly cute thing ever made. Saying you hate it, is like saying that you hate puppies or kittens or animals that have been forced to wear clothes or baby chicks that have been artificially colored pink or blue for Easter. In fact, Azumanga Daioh is like colored chicks riding in tiny little saddles on the back of kittens and puppies wearing a tiny little cowboy hat and vest. Is that boring to you too? Well is it??

FYI, you're probably not even a human anymore, and have already been switched out by a pod person. I'm keeping an eye on you.

1. It's really funny.

2. Induces nostalgia for high school years that never were.

3. Doesn't indulge in fan service.

4. Cast of characters interact perfectly.

Its a shame Cowboy Bebop is now the 'Have you seen Anime? - Yeah Ninja Scroll' because it cheapens what the show is, ultimately. Most of the GOOD anime out there; Evangelion, FLCL, any Satoshi Kon work, Cowboy Bebop, Last Exile, and yes, even my personal favorite but fairly light SLAYERS is a mark above American animated entertainment in terms of content.

Its a good show, its not anime of the ever, but its an extremely interesting series created by a dude who was going through shit everyone goes through. Not often are you allowed to follow a person's catharsis from start to finish. While the series original ending at first release was baffling, the Directors Cut and the movies did a better job presenting the material in the context of the show.

What makes Eureka Seven so popular is it approaches these themes too, but without all the angst and pain of a director going through serious shit. The end result is a much more approachable show.

I mention it cuz it seems to be a foreign thing. Most people I mention Azumanga or Yotsuba to when that subject comes up have no idea what the fuck I'm talking about.

I had one student say she liked Yotsuba once. ONCE.

It started with "Akira, Ghost In The Shell, and Ninja Scroll." Those were the three examples of anime in most peoples' heads for a while. I'm sure now you can add Dragonball Z and a few others.

MrAngryFace · « **Reply #79 on:** January 13, 2008, 03:55:06 AM »

Yotsuba is the one that followed right? It didnt seem to do as well as Azumanga did. Azumanga exists fine on its own tho.

Ichirou · « **Reply #80 on:** January 13, 2008, 03:57:46 AM »

It's doing pretty well, actually. I just heard the creator refused to have it turned into an animation for some reason.

yeah i think "yeah i've seen anime. i've seen dbz." is more accurate than "yeah i've seen anime. I've seen cowboy bebop."

it seems most folks worship cowboy bebop are already anime fans.

cowboy bebop was a revelation. i hadn't seen an anime like that back when i first watched it. Still my favorite anime tv series to this day.

yeah. i'm not sure if it's out in the usa tho. it's really fun. I read the manga.

wow really? i'd be all for a yotsubato anime.

Ichirou · « **Reply #82 on:** January 13, 2008, 04:13:23 AM »

Yotsuba's out in the USA....I think the last one that came out was volume 6.

Maybe Azuma just wants to wait till he's done with the series before having it turned into animation, I dunno...though I think he's planning on continuing Yotsuba for a lot of years to come.

Himu · « **Reply #83 on:** January 13, 2008, 04:15:57 AM »

Hahahaha Yotsuba owns

the part where the big sister says that air conditioners cause global warming and she freaks because her house has an ac, and calls her dad evil

haha

would make a good tv show

Ichirou · « **Reply #84 on:** January 13, 2008, 04:19:10 AM »

Yeah, it's hilarious. The characters are so well-realized and Yotsuba really does act like a child her age would (except without all the meanness that kids have at that age), but we better not talk about it TOO much or dcharlie will show up and start raining on our parade.

MrAngryFace · « **Reply #85 on:** January 13, 2008, 04:46:36 AM »

Cowboy Bebop in terms of the craft is very important, but its themes aren't very compelling as they've been mirrored once again in Samurai Champloo and Ghost in the Shell in parts. Basically to someone new to anime it says 'hay you thought it was all lolis, but its not, its dudes with guns n shit wtf'.

Ichirou · « **Reply #86 on:** January 13, 2008, 09:02:37 AM »

Yotsuba, you mean? Or are you talking about Azumanga again?

Ichirou · « **Reply #87 on:** January 13, 2008, 10:21:10 AM »

If we're talking animation, then I go with the original audio. If we're talking manga, I've only read the English version.

MrAngryFace · « **Reply #88 on:** January 13, 2008, 12:42:36 PM »

The azumanga dub isnt that good, to be honest. Most of the pure japanese plays on words go over my head and hearing them 'adapted in english' is just as baffling.

Himu · « **Reply #89 on:** January 13, 2008, 02:42:56 PM »

i liked the dub, but I can watch it in both languages. I really liked the extra features on the flcl and azumanga dvds because they helped you understand the show a lo more.
