Your Name is breaking records left and right and was considered for Oscar nominee

Anime will be mainstream in the next 3-5 years

All the cool kids watched anime in the 80s-90s, what happened?

>>152569194
No, and that's a good thing.

Japan should not have a reason to care about what the West thinks.

wanna know how i can tell you dont enjoy anime?

>>152569194
Not really
I mean we got a couple of good cinema releases lately, but I doubt they attracted many non-weebs. I don't think a couple of posters means much
Anyone in LONDON going to see it?

>>152569194
live action movie is out in march

Is this really a one day event? Since 25th isn't a good day for me

Going to see it in nottingham.

Plus I work in a cinema and i can confirm that places that see more anime attraction will screen more anime. Such as Sheffield and London,

Animu is already popular in Italy

Damn, seems this entire world is having a shit taste

I missed it but apparently there were some Akira screenings in cinemas last year too. I forget when since I missed it, it must have been the latter half.

Same, should be pretty sweet if the Akira screening was anything to go by.

Oh god please no. Don't let normies dictate how animes should be.

I don't want black main characters.
I don't want fat female characters.

>Mfw anime and manga are going to get the same treatment American comics have by having the obnoxious I'M SUCH A NERD XD fans

I warned you about this. But you didn't listen.

>>152577171

Otaku no Video warned us about this too.

Dragonball Super and Pokemon are the start to re-introducing anime to normies.
