Anime sweeping the black community like crack in the 80s

Legend of The Galactic Heroes but that's on the oldhead tip. Same goes for Dirty Pair and Violence Jack.

Black folks have always fukked with anime, its just that its popular now so more folks are open with it when back in the day, many would get clowned. Same type of shyt thats been happening with nerd/gamer culture in general.

I used to have to hide my manga books and shyt so I wouldnt get roasted Used to have to lie about what I was watching sometimes.

Now you got rappers making multiple anime references mid verse. These new cats dont know how good they have it. We crawled so that they could fly.

Anime is a gateway into wenching, pedophillia, hormone replacement therapy (tranny shyt), non-binary disorder, zoophilia, trans-racialism and many many many more mental illnesses.

Edit: I did watch DBZ, Pokemon, Digimon, and Beyblade... As a KID.

One is competitive competition, the other is cartoons from Japan geared towards kids and weirdos

same type of fanbase that gets into something that has nothing to do with them

 

[Lhark]

nikkas been liking anime it's just cool to watch and be a fan of it now. Before the visible anime fans were just weird white dudes and females built like linebackers with colored hair.

its been around for a while, its just it wasnt known as anime. my mom used to watch gigantor, kimba the white lion, and speed racer back in her day

 

[TooLazyToMakeUp1]

Anime was always cool

The thing is, the people who liked it in the past didn't make it a defining characteristic of their personality

Then again, people who came from OG animation are way different from the current school.....emphasis on "school"

 

[Threnody]

Been an anime fan since 1991 shyt fell the fukk off the last few years it would become super popular right when its getting to be consistently trash

So we gonna act like young black kids weren't rocking with DBZ in the 90s?

90s anime was straight piff and raw as fukk.

 

[2 Up 2 Down]

Just went through the thread. How did no one mention Street Fighter the animated movie yet?
The Chun-li/Vega fight was as a kid lol

Man, Sci-Fi channel on Saturdays always showed those more adult OVAs. Also the back of GameFan magazine usually talk about anime (as well as Japanese exclusive games). Anime in the 90s was just so different than most of the stuff you see today.

Samurai Pizza Cats, Speed Racer, Gatchaman, Ranma 1/2, and some others I can't remember the name of at the moment. Classics

 

[David_TheMan]

Black folks been looking at anime since Ninja Scrolls.
SMH, this generation is weird

 

[GreenGhxst]

nikkas been watching anime since middle school and im almost 30

Literally anything can be competition. People are having slap contests and arm wrestling as competition.

This is a result of less socialization in a Black area. Isolated kids sitting in their rooms all day on their PC adopting this lame shyt.
