What did you learn from anime ?

[Hard core Rikki]

or call them anime facts? Some 'stereotypes' can be a little ridiculous :P


The less you care about sex, the more opportunities you'll get.

Teachers have excellent aim with small objects.

Female androids are always sexy.

Everybody in the galaxy wants to conquer Japan, for some reason.

No matter how much blood is lost, no one ever dies from nosebleeds :P

[Godwin]

That Japan ran out of original ideas years ago.

[SCHUMI-4-EVA]

Everyone in the world magically talks and understand japanese.

(I wish someone would do an anime about me =P )

[Phil]

the character with the wildest hair is ussually the most impirtant. also the longer the sword, the bigger the third member

[Hiei-YYH]

that japan owns everyone. =)

[Slayer9x9]

-The U.S. is usually involved (not intensionally...) with the destruction of man-kind.
[correct me if I'm wrong]

-The more disturbing the anime is, the cooler.

-Everyone can be in bullet-time.

[MrPink]

getting a death note would rock

the japanese can think up some really scary $hit (still have nightmares from akira and its soundtrack)

[V1ncent]

Anime heroes eat a lot ,are real dumb guys , and they usually save the whole world from being conquered by evil forces or by being destroyed !
They always have side-heroes , and they don't have much story to use!
(they even make fishing an Anime )
But they are better than other animes ! Others suck !

[PCXL-Fan]

With willpower, handwork and training you can overcome any and every obstacle.

The ideal man looks like Ellen Degeneres


Your evil enemies once defeated will eventually become your allies and will help you fight a greater evil, who once defeated will become your ally as well, and help you fight an even greater evil, who will in turn join you as an ally once defeated and help you fight an even greater evil, who will in turn join you as an ally once defeated and help you fight an even greater evil, who will in turn....

[Paratech]

Having your soul sucked out in a card game is a temporary setback.
Asian women are small breasted, Anime Asian Women start at 60DD.
Villains typically aren't evil, they're misguided.
Sidekicks are always sidekicks and never save the day.
Females *usually* are more intelligent than men in Anime.
Every Anime has a perverted old man, or monk.
The main male character in Anime can't deal with sex.

[Thanakil]

That as long as you have a good hearth and believes in human-kind and want to protect your loved ones, you'll never ever die, you'll simply try something that didn't work before but with the power of love and will-power, you'll overcome it anyway.

A fight will always take 50 times longer than it would in real-world, tis' only a flesh wound.

The hero will take 50 hits from a bad guy and stand strong. But he'll take one hit from a woman on who he accidentally peeked and get blown away.
(wonder why they never save the world themselves, dammit)

The bad guy is the feminine man with long hair, the good guy is either the feminine guy with short hair or the kiddie small guy who look like a animal-boy.

The heroes is always stupid and oblivious to anything, if he ever adventured alone he'd probably get lost in his own bed, thanks god he got his team to lead him around.

The world and time will stop whenever you talk, even if you're in mid-air, as long as you talk nothing else goes on, so go on, describe your attack or how you're gonna beat the bad guy, it doesnt matter.
(best example of this would be Eyeshield 21... The catchers will jump in the air to catch the football and talk to each other for about 5 minutes while waiting to hit the ground)

Women don't know how to lock a door, or to hang a sign saying "someone is in there, don't come".

Seconded, but you should hear the finnish... *shivers*

In Anime the female punches or kicks the protagonist usually all the way to stars but if met against real enemy they're helpless and protagonist has to save them...

[SCHUMI-4-EVA]

german is the worst though....they use some sort of dubbing team. So almost every movie, anime and any other translated shows have exactly the same voices...

Well at least the german Opening of dragonballZ was better than the american broken record

You never seen Indian anime I think !
They are . . .

[Samor]

-teenagers rule the world

-girls always wear short skirts, unless there's a clear reason not to (there usually isn't)

-the hero's rival ALWAYS ends up having to admit he can't beat the hero at the end.

Addition: or by working together (with your friends)
By the way, the above always counts for the hero, but never for his rival. It must be hard being a rival in anime, although you usually get to be the cooler character.


...and German dubbing sounds like Dutch dubbing.

[John Aiton]

I learned that no really means yes.

and if an anime guy has a 'sister' who is not a biological sister,
he will have the hots for her

[Phil]

for killing people, a sword is far more effective then a gun

[Hard core Rikki]

...that huge galaxy-wide armadas, entire armies, and large warships full of nothing but cruel, heartless, bloodthirsty berserk warriors can be stopped and defeated with a single insignificant caring/loving emotion or a song :P
yeah, pretty cheesy :P

alternatively, a 'Good Guy' in a drunken stupor being held upside down from a moving vehicle always seems to hit his targets, whle inversely, several battalions of 'Bad Guys' firing on a 'Good Guy' standing shirtless alone in the middle of an open field always seem to miss him.
