Back in the day, it was easy to stumble across stuff like that at a con, especially the hyper-violent stuff. Even then I always said that saying you liked anime is like saying you liked movies. The Wizard of Oz is a movie. And so is A Clockwork Orange. LOL, I definitely gravitate towards shojo stuff, some shonen too.Rommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18343895193475984183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3659263493425330078.post-80192451494857162962021-10-31T11:20:35.344-04:002021-10-31T11:20:35.344-04:00"that girl with a sword

Later, Robin Hood was cool. I got into anime quite late, watching with my daughter. I was looking at the artwork, as each show can have very different styles. Nowadays, some anime are not really for children, like Psycho-pass or Persona 5. Beautiful artwork, great storyline, but plenty of violence. The anime features of Studio Ghibli (think Spirited Away, Totoro) are wonderful for children and adults.dsnake1https://www.blogger.com/profile/08724264906690080704noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3659263493425330078.post-8230638455928075882021-10-31T08:16:08.270-04:002021-10-31T08:16:08.270-04:00Thanks!Thanks!Rommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18343895193475984183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3659263493425330078.post-87347727636561289472021-10-31T08:14:19.369-04:002021-10-31T08:14:19.369-04:00I'm so glad you did!I'm so glad you did!Rommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18343895193475984183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3659263493425330078.post-1016128500816901562021-10-31T08:13:58.703-04:002021-10-31T08:13:58.703-04:00LOL, it's very old-school nerdiness.
