In terms of teenage boys I certainly didn't read it that she meant anything like that - I know several young men (not all teenagers either) who are so into anime that it is difficult to have a discussion with them about anything else. I don't think it's healthy to be that single-mindedly obsessive about any subject or interest, and I'm pretty sure it was that sort of thing she was referring to (which pisses me off too) - not the Pokemon kiddies.

Yeah, now that you mention it, it's very likely she didn't mean it like that. That part was meant rather to people who pass by this topic [img]smile.gif[/img]
What got me angry in the first place was this:

He.... Wait, LOL, I just found out that the creator of the petition has the word Neko(Japanese for cat) in his email - it's all a joke
I have to admit that I might have an Anime obsession, and I'm a teenager, but knowing that I have had a computer-gaming obsession for quite some time, and that I'd play games instead of watching Anime, were I not introduced to it, it might affect me well. Besides, all the Anime I watch, I watch with my brother, so we talk a lot about what happened in that last episode and whatnot - and I think that alone makes it better than a very-very personal obsession, since I am not watching it alone in a dark room or anything.
Thank you for your comments on the matter, Epona [img]smile.gif[/img]
