Anime Blues
 
What I really like about the internet is the fact that there are so many people that love anime as much as we do. Gizmo and I live in a town where a lot of people do not know about anime. Whenever we get excited about a new "Ranma 1/2" video we watched or we get a new anime goody, people look at us like we're crazy or from another planet. Ah yes, and the ever so frequent, "... that's nice." And just because we buy a couple of issues of "Animerica" were obsessed with anime. They think of it as something that is dumb and makes no sense. When we try to explain the plot of "Ranma 1/2", people think it's a weird show because Ranma turns into a girl and they do not grasp the concept that he is cursed . Then they refer to anime as "those japanese cartoons" with a certain tone of attitude! Now, not everyone has had these reactions. We've actually managed to hook some people onto anime. But most of them watch a couple of episodes of "Ranma 1/2" and tend to concentrate more on the nudity of the show than the plot. That's why the internet is our sanctuary. It's so wonderful to find so many people that enjoy anime as much as we do ^_^
