Fact - Not every nikka was watching anime growing up.
Fact - Every type of nikka watched anime though.
You got nikkas in here saying shyt like "You must be from the burbs cause no nikka was watching anime" which is a ridiculous assumption. Just as ridiculous as someone saying all of any group watched anime. Hell I know Asians that didnt watch them. I have lived in almost every part of this country and been in hoods or lived in hoods in all of them and not one place have I been where there wasnt some dude that watched anime.
New York - Harlem, Greenwich V - Knew nikkas watching anime.

These are all places Ive lived and Im still forgetting some. Im not gonna waste time going into specific neighborhoods and blocks for the sake of someone saying it was the burbs and not hoods but I can if need be. The point of all that is to show how stupid it is for a nikka to say nikkas in the hood don't watch anime. Get that dumbfukk logic outta here. You may not have watched it or your group of friends didnt but thats yall. Everyone didnt watch it, sure. But tons of nikkas on the block and on the ave would be out robbing, serving and banging with DBZ shirts on and go home and watch basketball, porn, Martin and anime. Yall sound dumb as fukk.
Anime is more of a generational thing than it is geographical or economical thing.
