I like the diversity and expression of life aspects portrayed in anime.
It has something that western toons do not have...a sort of reality to them. They are not afraid to portray love, violence, emotions and the like, where as western cartoons are more reserved and most of the western ones that attempt this are of a poor quality and feel rushed.
All in all, Anime is much like watching a good quality Hollywood movie, but due to the special effects that would be required to make such a thing( kinda like transformers), its just not cost effective. Its a million dollar movie told through animation.
I hate it for that very reason.
And too often it’s just plain old boring to watch. They get very lazy with the animation. I need more than a character shifting positions, a camera pan, and the occasional fight sequence.
A good cartoon should be enjoyable even with the sound turned off.

Some animes may be creative and dynamic, but for the most part it’s real stock. ---

He speaks the unfortunate truth.
There are a lot of stock animes out there. Its their mainstream; essentially, its just like Cartoon Network here. There is a ton of shit.
But there is a ton of good stuff too. The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, Neon Genesis Evangelion, Dokoro-chan, Akira, anything from Studio Ghibli, Trigun, Cowboy Bebop, and Excel Saga/Puni Puni Poemy(which I didn’t really care for PPP, since it was too random, but some people like that and its got some quality production), to name a few.
I tend to like older anime a bit more than the newer stuff, since it was more definitive and not as stock-heavy.

Maybe if you’re watching something like Lucky Star...
A lot of anime is pretty straightforward.

You sound like that black lady from The Matrix that gets really vague when she speaks and smokes like 5 million packs a day.
