well, i live in two places....

ho ho!

pretty much everyone knows what anime is, though half of them hate it and half of them love it. the irony of it is that i've already gotten about 20 of the haters into anime.
-_-;;

it's weird.. at my school... people that you think wouldn't like anime.. DO like anime..

and those taht you think DO like anime... well.. they DO like anime...

and there's the rest of the random where we will never know..

oh yea, my english teacher from the past school year likes anime... and Final Fantasy games.. she beat FFX-2 before anyone else at school did, that we know of..

and I think i overheard her having a discussion about Evangelion, if there's someone that could kinda understand it.. it'd be her.. (seeing as she gives us these f***ing hard english tests on books and stuff.. I passed the class with a B but have been failing all her classes?)

oh yea, and them little kids like yugioh

Where I live it seems to be not very commun you find it along side things like Warhammer 40k which not exactly every one likes. I know 10 or so people at school who watch anime and and my closefriends watches anime too. THe selection isn't super good but oh well I love it thats all that maters.

Well, where I last lived... 12 people? One of my freinds went to Barns & Noble (screw the spelling), to pick up the manga Ghost in the Shell, but when he got there the one copy that had been there for 2 or so months was gone! A few days later he saw Virgil with a copy of it. 2+2 says that he bought it. Other than that is was mostly 5Graders and the hip collecters/card serise of the month "Pokémon" "YuGi Oh" "Dual Mosters" bla bla.

Where I live now? Only the people in the anime store I think. A few of the class mates I have have talked about "Japanesse cartoon porn" but they aren't that well educated or what not. I had a few of ABe's works in my folder and Meave asked, "Are you into hente" (as she pronouced it) but yeah... They talk behind me in Geilige! Just come up to my face and say it! I can't understand Geilige!

In the town i live, there is no possibility to rent, buy, anime or manga. I guess that even in the entire country there is no such posibility.
Around here, i'm kinda lonely when it comes to anime. I'm the only one really into anime, and there are some others that have only heard about it.
It's a lonely life as an anime lover.....
