    Anime is not for jerks.  Therefore, by association, Jeff IS a jerk.

    Aww. Jeff doesn't mean it. After all Vinny isn't a jerk.

    Unless..... he IS a jerk!

    "
    1. At the end of the video it says ''send apologies to blah blah blah @gamespot.com etc. etc.'' and I watched the embed version so I wasn't able to see the description.
    2.I didn't mean ''the video posted by the OP'' in an offensive way, I guess I could've just said ''embed by the OP'' but whatevs =P
    "

    Wait, did you seriously think the "apology request" was sincere? Are you that stupid?

    This is why I would hate to be even the slightest of famous I guess you would call it? because anyone can pull out any quote by you and reverse or turn anything on you depending on the situation and what you had said.

    Just a few days ago I read this:
    "First strike is that this book is based on a videogame and no one has ever been able to convince me that videogames aren't dumb and an utter waste of any even borderline sentient's time. Spare me your angry or concerned responses. As far as I'm concerned, it has all been downhill since Pong."

    The problem here is not that people think anime or video games or comic books are stupid, dumb, etc...
    That's their opinion, and I can respect that.
    However, when you speak in that same way about the fans, it becomes YOU who are the jerk for insulting someone and not respecting their opinion.

    "Now I know what you're saying - Anime's for jerks" isn't jeff himself saying anime is for jerk's, he is predicting what the audience thinks.

    Either way, Anime is for jerks.

    I thought that was the best part of it myself. Everyone is like Loling in the comments, and the kid is like HES A DICK! HE NEEDS TO APOLIGIZE.

    He probably doesn't understand who gerstmann is...and anime is for jerks.

    This is funny but we all know Jeff didn't really mean that. What's rather sad about this is that the guy who made this video was trying to inundate Jeff with spam from hundreds on angry YouTubers asking him to apologize for his little joke. You don't hassle the Gerstmann!

    I kinda remember an On The Spot where someone wrote in and said "excuse me, it's actually pronounced munga (Manga)" and Ryan said, "thanks for telling us about mango's bro, next question." Good times, good times.

    So what does Mr. Gerstmann have to say about anime today?  I mean, surely it can't still be just for jerks.  I'm sure other people like it as well, right?
