This is simple. Anime is just a fancy definition for a Japanese
cartoon that has been poorly dubbed and sent to the U.S. so people
like me can buy it for triple it's actual value. But don't
misunderstand, that doesn't mean it isn't worth it. Sure, there are
plenty of cartoons for me to watch for free every Saturday Morning;
but it just isn't the same. And yes it is true that the Disney
movies available to rent at your local grocery store have a frame per
second rate so much greater than any anime production that it makes
Ricky Martin look like a sissy little school girl. (wait a second,
Ricky Martin IS a sissy little school girl!) HOWEVER, my freind,
tell me this, HAVE YOU EVER SEEN MICKEY MOUSE DO THIS:

I THINK NOT. Mickey mouse could not do that, not on the best day of
his life, thank you very much.
But that's not what makes anime great. Nooo, exaggereated fighting
skills can be easily seen among the likes of Batman and Superman.
HOWEVER, COULD SUPERMAN, THE MAN OF STEEL HIMSELF, MAKE A FACE LIKE
THIS:

NO SIR HE MOST DEFINATLY COULD NOT. Superman is way too much of a
stiff to make a face like that, Anime wins in the face making
comparison hands down thank you very much.
Yet, that is not the reason we all love anime. Nooo, you may find
quite an abundance of funny faces on the daytime cartoon show Pinky
and the Brain. BUT AWNSER ME THIS, CAN THE CREATORS OF PINKY AND THE
BRAIN MAKE PICTURES LIKE THIS:

THEY MOST CERTAINLY CANNOT. No sir, Pinky and the Brain have no
chance against that. No, not even a very small chance thank you very
much.
Still, that is not why anime can't be beat. Which leads to the
question: 'Why is it that anime is the best?'. Well, my curious
freind, ask yorself this, HAVE YOU EVER SEEN A CHARACTER IN ANY OTHER
STYLE OF ANIMATION THAT LOOKS LIKE THIS:

NO WAY, NO CHANCE, NEVER will you see another character who looks
like that in a non-anime ANYTHING. You can't see that on baywatch. So
she may not be real, but neither are Pamela Anderson's.... umm...
nevermind.
AND THAT, IS THE REAL REASON ANIME IS THE BEST. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
For those of you who came here because you really didn't know what
Anime is, I hope that awnsers your question. If not, there are
plenty of other sites with more formal
introductions, and feel free
to read them; BUT WHEN YOU DO, DON'T FORGET THE REAL REASON ANIME IS
THE BEST.
That's all I hope you enjoyed the show, you can catch my act
again tuesdays, in front of your local Wal-Mart
