Anime

Anime is a Japanese animation. That's it. Typically, it has loud, flashy openings, and characters have large ass eyes, spiky hair if male, brightly coloured hair, and normally have very attractive body parts, being very muscular if he is male, and he can be as young as 13, or having unusually large thighs and breasts if female, and can also be as young as 13. How voice actors speak is usually very different to how normal Japanese citizens speak their language. It is often very, very exaggerated. Anime usually hook people in and get them addicted, and I can see why. Most shows are pretty good, but it can also totally destroy you and make yourself one of weirdest creatures on earth. A simple person who only enjoys watching anime but doesn't let it corrupt them may be called a weeb. However, one who has a serious addiction, loves collecting Japanese items such as weapons, keeps lots of merchandise such as bodypillows and figures, and loves cosplaying could be called a weeaboo. Weeaboos are one of the fucking most obnoxious things to ever crawl the earth. I myself have learnt all of this the hard way. At one point, I was a weeaboo, except I haven't got to the the later stages. I later quit anime entirely because I realised how weird it was and how weird it made me, and also, I simple got bored of it. I advise all who read this definition to never watch anime, and if you already do, I advise you to stop. It's not worth it.

If you enter a weeaboo's room, you will find many unusual items. This includes, but is jot limited to: Figurines Bodypillows Katanas Costumes Various other anime merchandise including clothes, blankets, pillows, duvets, wallpapers, etc. You can find these creatures donning glasses, neckbeards, or a shit-ton of fat. They may also try to communicate in Japanese. They also smell like shit. Please, my brothers and sisters, do not watch anime, for your sake. Thank you.

Anime

Everyone knows what anime is by now. But it's arguably also one of the most basic examples of "cultural capital" (the sociological concept), especially and particularly for kids and teens at school. If you're not a jock, preppy or just an all-round popular kid, then having some basic knowledge about anime is one of the most indispensable forms of cultural capital any kid could have in order to fit in. This is considerably more true today, as the antiquated stereotype that "anime is uncool/is for nerds/etc." is slowly waning. And let me tell you, as someone who unfortunately lacked any knowledge of anime starting from 6th grade, I had trouble conversing with most of my (non-jock) classmates. This resulted in two unpleasant outcomes for me: be a loner or mingle with the rowdy jock kids. But that was 13 years ago. I would think most if not all kids today watch anime, since cable TV is a thing of the past.

Just like how an iPhone is worth a lot of money, being up-to-date with anime and weeb culture is worth a lot of cultural capital.

anime

Refers to animation originating from Japan. A once great animation art/entertainment medium that as long since fallen from grace due to it's now large following of otaku, social shut-ins, weebs and people who proclaim themselves as 'Introverts' (when they are really not one and more of just of people who lack basic social skills and don't even bother developing it. Hence the self-proclamation of being an 'Introvert'). As a result, the anime industry as whole (i.e producers and consumers) now, is nothing but a desolate wasteland only filled with the aforementioned cliques.
