Sorry 'bout the bright mode...

Anyways, I was earlier planning to check out the posts in r/AntiAnime. But when I did, it turned out that majority of the posts there were like 6 years old or older. Kinda disappointing because I was planning to talk on a fresh post of this anti braincell category.

Then I found this other sub-reddit, r/AntiAnimeFederation. Even in this one, posts were like a year old atleast. Still newer than the previous sub-reddit's though. Guess the anti braincell crap already died...?

Still though, disliking something is one thing. What in the actual world was with these people's hate treating Anime as if it is the biggest threat to humanity? Reading this one post shown here through these images made me feel as if I'm reading some short note criticizing drugs and their use.

I might never be able to understand these types of hate... Either they're ragebaits, or actually serious hate... Both suck.

Well then, this was one of the latest posts I could find in the sub-reddit. Even this is a year old. But guess this will do it. We'll be breaking this bit by bit.

So let's begin.

"Ladies and gentlemen,"

"It's time for a wake-up call. We’re on the brink of a cultural disaster, and the culprit is anime—an insidious force that’s devouring our time, our minds, and our sanity. If you’re caught in this trap, it’s time to face the harsh truth."

... Alright so, my first question is gonna be, when in the world did we get on the brink of a cultural disaster to begin with? Or rather, what culture in the world is on the brink of disaster because of Anime of all things? Because I know of absolutely no such "culture near disaster" event in which Anime is even remotely the cause.

And look at this guy, saying anime is devouring our time. Which activity is there in the world that doesn't devour time? I wonder? And how is Anime devouring our minds and sanity? Is it coming out of the screen, entering our heads, and then feeding on our brain? Like bruh, give the proof of the statement you make.

"Anime isn’t just a harmless hobby; it’s a mind-warping, reality-distorting plague. It’s designed to pull you away from reality, filling your head with endless fantasies and perverse escapism. This isn’t just entertainment—it’s a tool of manipulation, warping your perceptions and blinding you to the real world around you."

Oh, so only Anime does that? And nothing else, like books, DC, Marvel, games, and infact the internet itself as a whole, do so? What is the purpose of entertainment other than pulling you out of reality? And what sort of entertainment does NOT pull you out of reality?

Honestly what are these idiotic arguments? This is the part where I thought I was reading a paragraph of a short note criticizing drugs. And if the guy who wrote this is somehow reading my post, why're you using internet? When it does exactly what Anime does according to you? I really wonder...

"Look at the consequences! The obsession with anime has created a generation of people who can’t differentiate between fantasy and reality. This is no joke. You’re losing touch with what really matters, falling deeper into a fabricated world that does nothing but distract and destroy."

Seriously? So now we're supposed to go blame an industry which creates stuff that has obvously nothing to do with reality for something that simply isn't their fault? What are we, 5? Calling some elder a monster for yelling at a friend instead of knowing what made him to?

Anime was never meant to delude people. It was simply for entertainment. Now if there exist people who can't take care of themselves and their senses and get affected badly by it, how's the industry to be blamed? That's like me blaming mathematics for getting brain hemorrhage.

Also, Where's the whole "generation" which can't differentiate between reality and fiction, with anime being the only reason behind their existence? Anime never caused that. Even if, cases like those are still rare. I literally have a friend who likes Anime enough to get offended if someone calls it a cartoon. Yet he's still really smart. What will you say of that?

And what is that something that matters which someone loses touch with because of Anime, huh? And nope, me, accompanied by many other fellow Anime fans, aren't falling anywhere. You just see some rare cases of people getting their lives ruined because of Anime, then think of it as some poison. Or maaayyyybe you just hate Anime for who knows what actual reasons (or lack thereof), then come here trying to sound like a wise man to make people think you're right.

But that won't work. And for a matter of fact, even the most unexpected things can ruin someone's life. Doesn't necessarily mean those things are to be blamed.

"Wake up! The very thing you’re clinging to is leading you down a path of isolation and delusion. It’s feeding on your time and energy, leaving you hollow and disconnected. Do you really want to be a pawn in this game of manipulation?"

Wake up from what?! What nonexistent manipulation game are you talking about?!

Again I'm saying, Anime has no fault in someone's isolation and delusion. It's the person's own fault.

And waow. Now bringing the good ol' "iT'S A WaStE Of tImE AnD EnErGy sO ThEn iT'S BaD" aren't you? You just can't see people having fun watching what they like can you? And so you use that good ol' phrase accompanied by "iT LeAvEs yOu hOlLoW AnD DiScOnNeCtEd" to sound like a man of wisdom.

"We’re starting a revolution against this brain-numbing epidemic. We’re fighting back against the mind control and the fantasy that’s stripping you of your potential. This is a call to arms—a fight for your own sanity and a stand against the insidious grip of anime."

Oh, really? Sure. Go ahead. See if anything changes. You attempting to fight and erase Anime from existence because of your own narrowminded view and self made "facts". And I'll more than love seeing it become the most pathetic failed revolution in history (If it even takes place to begin with 😂).

"Rise up! Reclaim your life before it’s too late. Cut the chains of this toxic obsession and break free from the delusion. The time to act is now. If you don’t, you might just find yourself trapped in a never-ending cycle of fantasy and regret."

"Thank you."

My life's already with me buddy, thank you very much. Anime never took my life from me. It infact made it more fun by being a nice thing to watch. And there's no toxic obsession and delusion among majority of Anime fans. And I don't need to act against something that does absolutely nothing of the sorts you claim. And yeah, you can just say you don't like fantasy. It's fine if you don't. You don't need to force it down into others' throats, however, to hate it aswell. People have a thing called "preferences" which maybe is a word you haven't heard of.

And no! Thank you instead! For this whole comedic post of yours!

And I'm really happy to become the person that made the "L" comment more liked than that post of this guy lol.
