What do you guys think of this? that is ridiculous, I don't care if he said sorry but for someone to say that is incredibly stupid and it pisses me off so badly that someone would even think that.
 
What do you guys think?

I'm not quite sure on who said that quote. If it was a nobody, then there's always nuts in the world. If it was someone famous, why is that person commenting on anime?

Okay, there was a crazy dude saying crazy things, but in the end I will still watch tons of anime and j-drama.
 
Edit:
The picture is great, too.

I seriously doubt you'd actually go to prison for it.  I do Law in 6th Form and only in like 9% of convictions does the Judge actually send people to prison.

Eh if you take it as a joke comment, it's kinda funny I guess. A bit off-color but whatever, society's too sensitive these days. Where's Lenny Bruce when you need him?

Anime died after the late 90s and early 2000s.  Bebop was one of the last few good shows with Trigun and Wolf's Rain.
 
All this loli shit is pissing me off.  I'm not a fucking high school kid and want darker, more mature stories like they used to make.
 
Great example, Gundam Wing to Gundam Seed...one is for adults, the other isn't.

Well the comment was asinine but then again, so is this jack off on the clip.  Not sure where the "for jerks" thing is coming from either.  Though I admit to liking anime and oftentimes fitting nicely into the jerk subset.

Guys it does not matter if Anime is good or not but saying the country should have been nuked again is idiotic.

Really? The obliteration of a society and culture is justified because of something a subset of that culture has developed?

I can't watch the video right now cuz im at school, but if its about that dude saying Japan should get nuked for making anime and all that messed up shit, that dude already appologized and I *think* resigned.
 
Also this already exists.

Jeff on this site is famous for saying "anime is for jerks". I don't think he meant it in a serious way though, and I'm pretty sure he said it when he worked at gamespot. I don't know the story though, other than that he said it.

It was more of a joke And I do still have some trust that judges can see the difference between innocent cartoons and actual childporn.  Still it's a bad law and though I don't live in the UK, I do fear something like this can come to other countries. Too much of our privacy and rights are taken away under the banner of stopping childporn. It is an awful thing but we have to be careful that the end still justifies the means. Unfortunately it's an illusion that you can end childporn.

I'm not really a fan of Anime. But...Anime is for jerks?
 
Oh sure, let's generalize. Lemme get started.
 
Video Games are for losers
Politics are for liars
The Military is for gung-ho soldiers
 
ETC, etc. Yeah, generalizing. Sure is fun, right?

Are you fucking serious?  Someone working in politics who jokes about how "two nukes just wasn't enough"?  If you think that's funny and in good taste, you have problems.

I don't believe that anime is for jerks, as the same could be said of any form of entertainment. It's all down to personal preference and it should be down to the person whether they deem anime entertaining and not the surrounding crowd. This is within reason of course.

Anime is pretty bad. Really fans just take a step back and look at it as a whole. So much creepy ass fanservice in everything. It's weird that there's a hotspring episode in like everything.

This topic has taken a rather nasty turn. Time for it to be locked, lets try and stick to video games and leave anime discussion to AnimeVice.com!
