[QUOTE=Twilight_Kioku]ok, im a high school student, have about 30 manga novels, 6 dvd's, 72 gig of anime on my comp, and a hellovalotta wallpapers. recently, one of my teachers in my computer classes noticed my wallpapers i have up, and some other classmates as well. recently, mine has been DNAngel wallpapers, and negima. she gets kinda mad and tells us to get rid of our wallpapers, calling them cartoon porn. i was just sittin there thinking 'yeah, porn my a__, if she wants that, i can bring some'. not goin to, of course, but just the idea of excluding it from my computer classes when all i do in there is draw anime on the computers...well, i dont have anything to do in there anymore! and neither does a couple of my friends. we are now forced to BS our way through the day. i also bring my manga to school to read, because my parents dont really like it, when its nothing worse than whats on the local channels at prime time. i bring them to school, and some more teachers chew me out for reading that, and i contenue to think, 'wtf? itsa book, im an adult, GET OVER IT!' long story short, my teachers are anti-anime, anti-manga, and im stuck with nothing to do for a few hours. anyone else have this problem around school or anywhere similar?
good new is, she hasent said anything about my .hack// music, yay[/QUOTE]
I had a similair problem at my school, but i solved it by going to my art teacher and asking if he would like to sponser an anime club, then i went and filled out all the forms and made one. It lasted two years *because i graduated* and I ended up having a meeting every week with up to twenty people showing up, and every friday i had an after school session. By the end of the year my principal was beggin me to tell him where i bought my naruto headband and stuff because he wanted to get some for the staff :D
give it a try, who knows you might change a few peoples perspectives on anime and the subject in general. If you want any ideas feel free to send me a private message and i will be more than happy to help :D
