Why do some people totally bash people who like anime??

Just don't go to the gamer room Annie. I hear that to some of those participants that a shower may be as rare as a Shiny Mew.

Apart from a few of the weirder people, the games area of Expo was okay. I even got a few games of DDR in and nobody said anything about me even though I'm not very good. (I was expecting them to be all elitist jerks)

On topic, we got some weird comments and looks on the way back from expo, though I don't think people 100% understood where we had just been so that might explain it.

It wasn't so bad when there were crowds of people in cosplay, silly hats, "I lost the game" signs etc. getting on the trains, but when it was just the five or six of us people made more lame insults and stared at us. I think that shows cowardice a little. =/
When a bunch of us went for a late lunch after BWR we had a great discussion with probably the best waitress ever. Her description of some of the people at the convention had us all rolling. I would quote it, but I can remember the exact words she used. Someone else will have to cover for me there.

lmao

The waitress basically compared some of the cosplayers to hookers and porn stars because of the way they were dressed.

I wish you could have been here last night too, we went to Milestone's again and had another amazing waitress and she sat and talked with us and took pictures for us and stuff. I got a picture of her as well, I'll post it up later. She was really awesome. lol

Lol, I wasn't at AN. If I was I would have been a BWR. My friends have told me horror stories from the gamer's room though.

Also, lmao huge DragonBall nerd here, and even I can admit that GitS is much better then most of the trilogy.
this is mostly why they do this we argue about which is better also to gt is not the best so many plotholes to name one if pans blood is too diluted to become a super saiyan why can goku jr and vegeta jr become super saiyan ? as a guess i think only to could understand this

Everyone can understand what you're saying...it's just that no one cares for DBGT.
It was never said in GT that Pan couldn't go SSJ because of her bloodline. I don't remember what the Perfect Files (GT encyclopedia's released only in Japan) had to say about this issue. Bulla/Bra didn't go SSJ either and she is the daughter of a full-blooded Saiyan (Vegeta). It may simply be that's she is a girl. And that is besides the point. In plot development, and even just telling a story, the DragonBall franchise isn't the greastest. This isn't taking anything away from DragonBall, I love the franchise, I've literally seen everything in it (and own most of it too). It's still a tremendously awesome franchise that has too much going towards it to list.

EDIT- Also, I like GT. Mostly the first 16 episodes when it was like DragonBall, but then it became like Z...
are you guys seriously arguing about the logistics of dragonball? nothing in that carp show makes sense. the characters are named after vegetables for chrissake

just say a wizard did it and get on with your lives

A good portion of the trip back, Spinster, Harclave, and Anubis were mocking the Dragon Ball series. It doesn't make sense. Although, there's a large number of things that do not make sense, but this does not make them bad.
exactly but if you look at page eight you would see that to said that gt was the best of the trilogy but im pointing out that its not im not saying its bad but its not the best that would have to be dbz
GT was absolutely woeful to me, they killed the surprise factor that DBZ had. Dragonball wasn't that good to me either. However this isn't the thread to keep going on about it, but i couldnt help but just say that GT was craptacular.
yes and that is his opinion feel free to leave your opinions on the thread this is for

Please don't expect me to read this entire topic with the belief that I actually care about anime or its fans. You'll give me another reason to bash anime fans. I was just defending Toto.
then why r u even here if you dont care about anime or its fans are u just wanting to give reasons for this
thread huh

DBZ and surprise factor are words that should never be talked about together.
What was so obvious about it? I've seen way more obvious anime's.
what was so obvous any way theres only one thing i could guess was that bulma was future trunks mum thats it any more please inform
Frieza comes along.. SSJ1
Cell comes along.. SSJ2
Buu comes along.. SSJ3

need I say more? seriously.
but did we genuinly know that that was gonna happen vegeta could have triggered ssj1 would you really have guessed either your really smart or lying
