[size=1]I wouldn't really say that I ever have. I mean, I don't like animes because of the things I read about them, I like them for the way each character is drawn out, the way each story and plotline just stands. Hearing the voices match up with the characters (or not match up with the characters and possibly end up making fun of the voices in the near future) gives a thrill as I listen.

And continuously watching the show makes me, usually, stand on my toes wondering what's next, as if I was trying to peak over my neighbor's fence. (note: I don't actually do that, I was trying to use an example. :animeswea )

I think that ends my overly-thought out and re-written answer of why I wouldn't/hadn't liked an anime series I never watched.

Short version: I like anime because I can watch it.

Of course. That answer isn't even long enough. :animesmil [/size]

First off, I find it hard to say you can truly appreciate anything without experiencing it. Honestly, if you haven't seen the Anime or read the Manga of "Ah My Goddess!" then I don't think you can say you like it.

You may say that you like the artwork if you've seen pictures, or that you like the music if you've heard songs from the series, but anything less specific and your feelings towards the series will be based purely on assumptions and what other people tell you. Assumptions being inaccurate enough, what others will tell you about a series will always be full of bias and will be different from the original series in question.

My bottom line is, unless you've seen the series yourself, you will like what you think the series will be, and what other people tell you about it, not the series itself.

That said, considering the low conversation value in this thread, as well as the poor quality of the first post, I'm going to have to close this thread. If you wish to create another post, remember that conversation, and grammar are important. The first post of a thread, especially, has to fulfill these requirements.

Thread Closed.
