What Makes Anime Different With Cartoon ?

Actually Anime also can be called as a cartoon made by Japanese, but in here cartoon definition is typical animated created by western people.

 

1. Anime inserted many Japanese culture and sub-culture on graphics and storyline, contrast with cartoon mostly emphasize humorous sense and creativity but more less cultural.

2. Anime Not limited just kids genre only, but also for teenagers and adults, contrast with cartoon mostly limited and associated with children.

3. Anime theme mostly related with human characters and relations, contrast with cartoon mostly anthropomorphic of animals and inanimate objects, similiar like Aesop's fables.

4. Anime may contained some suggestive content by western view, when cartoon is should be with less to no any suggestive contents.

All of these views are very stereotypical but still commonly accepted by many people around the world until today.

Do people who can’t understand Japanese, listen to Japanese music ?

Usually many Anime fans and Weeaboos never have problems with that. They have tons of MP3 collections from Anime music to Utada Hikaru on their smartphone without knowing what are they singing.

Why do people not finish watching anime ?

 Because

1. Don't have much time and chance for it because their business.
2. The Anime is not worth to watch it, may it because storyline is sucks or graphic quality is bad.
3. Their mood not in good shape, so they discontinued it in the middle of story for some reasons.
4. They found out another more interesting Anime than he/she currently watching now and he/she decided to abandoned it and then more focus to new more interesting Anime.
5. Technical problems like corrupted MP4 files, lost files, no electricity, broken PC, etc.
6. People only just picked some sample of Anime to watch and then they can't decide which Anime they want to watch until finished.

Is Japanese Anime Characters based White People ?

I found a good example about comparison between an Anime character and average Japanese person. The image probably came from official Anime Seikimatsu Occult Gakuin and the character name is Maya Kumashiro. 

It's funny to know the contrast different between both images.

Why don’t people like dubbed anime ?

 Because most of people loved “original” voice characters. You know being an Anime voice actor in Japan are uneasy and very selective. The bad things from dubbed version is did by amateur voice actors, which much sounds looks plain and no soul into the voice. The only good thing from dubbed version is people can understand the conversations directly without need looking subtitles. I think most of people against dubbed Anime, will agree with these opinion.

My Opinions About Shy Girls

 Most of man usually feel curious with shy women. If they feel interest with her, he may will start some “ice breaker” conversations but if all efforts to move closer to her failed because she is too shy. He may will give up and runaway.

Ahh… looks dramatic but it's true and it also still relevant in vice versa. In this modern day, actually many man are more shy than woman.

I'm personally more preferred cheerful women over shy women. 

A smile we must protect with all of cost !

Does Anime Weebs Really Love Their Waifu ?

 Anime weebs have some degrees how to loved their waifu, not different like a person loving someone in reality.

If a weeb only just focus with one waifu for a long time and never change his love to other waifus. You can say he truly loved his waifu so much and have some dedications by collecting many paraphernalia related to her. It's so admirable but such weebs are very-very rare to found in reality.

So the answer is very relatively, most of weebs may forgot their first waifu name, since he no longer love his waifu and more loved to new one. 

How to Make Friends with Japanese as an Anime Fan ?

4. Don't hope too much for long relationship.

5. You can find them many on Facebook, Twitter, Quora, Instagram, Pixiv, Nico-nico Douga and YouTube with texts and comments entirely in Japanese.

6. Tips: if you are really an Anime fan, then you should seeking Japanese people with “Anime face" profile and many Anime related posts in their website pages, usually you will treated very welcome by them 😊 

So don't disturbing Japanese people not meet these criterias or you will get very negative respond 🙏

Why Do People Like Newer Anime Than Anime From The 70s-80s ?

 Because newer Anime more eye catching, sharp, clear graphics and good sound quality than Anime made from 70s-80s. You can make comparison and found out, old Anime screen looks “yellowish” and “rough” than new one. So the reason is clear.

But I think storyline from old Anime more better than new Anime.

Here comparison example between New 2021 Sailor Moon Eternal Vs Old 90s Sailor Moon Super S.

Anime Character Similar With My Personality

Console Games Vs PC Games Which Better ?

I more like console games more than PC games, because console games is specialized built for playing games only, more durable and can playing the latest high resolution games with less problems for latest game console machine.

Meanwhile PC games may need to be installing first and adding some additional upgrade on PC like IC, VGA and some electronic components for playing high resolution games with less troubles, it's make PC upgrades more expensive than the latest console machine price.

The bad thing of console games technologies are so quickly outdated and trends quickly changing to next console generations like PS4 to PS5, when PC games may still can playing some latest games in the future.

When did Watching Anime Become a Trend ?

Anime trend in Japan definitely more earlier, for world wide, it's around 80s to 90s when Betamax and VHS cassettes so popular at the time, then around 90s up, Anime broadcasting on National TV make it Anime more popular around the world. 

Now watching Anime still popular mostly on Internet after National TV more rarely broadcasting Anime. 

Shortly to say world wide trending watching Anime is around 80s to 90s, when Betamax and VHS popular it, then followed by National TV and Internet.

All my review are based on my real experiences and research.

Why is Japanese so hard to translate ?

If you mean translation by using Google Translate then the reason are

1. Because Japan and English has different grammar construction. English is SVO and Japan is SOV.
2. Different interpretation of paragraphs context by Google Translate system. Google Translate Not so good for translation Japanese long words or long paragraphs but still dependable for a single word or very short/very simple paragraphs. Recent slang words and new idioms also take in place.
3. So at least you need some basic knowledge about Japanese language when using Google Translate.
4. This problem also happened to other languages have different grammars construction and different contexts interpretation system with English. These things make English translation from Japanese on Google Translate appears “error" in your eyes.

Based from my experience cleaning my house, here my conclusion.

It's depends with how big your house. If big enough, first option is more better, because....

1. It's more saving your stamina.

2. You can more details to cleaning up and organizing many stuff in there.

3. If your house big enough, you can make a plan to cleaning it area per area everyday.

4. You still have a time to spot and repairing broken parts around your house.

Why did I become a hikikomori? I didn't choose this

Not just you only, Hikikomori is a global phenomenon not just happened in Japan.

It's happened because consequences of modern life in modern society, when people gets more lazy do socialization (not just you but society around you also), selfish mind, materialistic and apathy society. 

I also Hikkikomori as well after my mom gone, i didn't choose this way as well but since situation forced me like this, no relatives, neighbors nor real friends caring and talking with me now, i'm completely lived alone in my house now, so i'm Hikikomori too. But at least I have online friends to talk. 

So don't too much complaining about your fate as Hikikomori. Just accept it and adapting with your situation now, be enjoy ! 

If you can't have real friends then seek online friends now. If you can't found real job then seek online job or online work. Just do what you can do now.

Meaning of Life and My Philosophy of Life

People not born with exact purposes for their life, like for what purposes they life in this world. People will understand their meaning of life, when they have something they loved and something worth to struggle for. 

Yeah i mean our Love and Hardworks in our life, actually giving us truly meaning of life, example like smile from our beloved one, devotion to our job, devotion to our religion, devotion to our nations, etc. These are giving us spirits and truly meaning of life. 

Selfless people will understand about meaning of life more better than selfish people.

If you don't know where to start your life, then start from what can you do now with all your might, another ways will following soon.

If you failed in your efforts then keep trying but sometimes change to another way for success is more better for your future, so always be flexible with your decisions in life.

Life only just once, so enjoy your life with full responsibilities.

Happiness and sadness are very common in life and happened to everybody. 

Complains and empty talks cannot solve any problems, only active person with smart brain, hands and legs can solve problems. So be less complains and do more.

Money can solve some problems but cannot buy wisdoms, because wisdom is self-experiences and self-awareness.

Relationship based on money is similiar like hiring a double-agent, when someone can pay more, he/she can change side anytimes. But relationship based true love will long lasting forever like mother and her children.

*Aoi Yamada from Working!!

My Spouse Earns Less Money Than I Do, Can I Complain ?

It's more better he/she earn less money from their hardwork than nothing.

If you really loved your spouse, then you should can giving him/her supports for their success in business. A good spouse should can "fighting side by side" with their beloved spouse to facing any problems in life ! No more giving them more pressures and stress for his/her problems he/she faced alone !

Only just complains and empty talks all of days can't solve anything and make all situations more worse ! Only real efforts, supports and help can solve all problems in this worlds. Talk Less Do More !

Money is needed to lived in this world, but money can't buy a good relationship and true happiness. That's why many divorced richman and celebrities, once he/she have broken relationship with their spouse, didn't have any ideas how to make their relationship back to good again, despite they are rich and have money.

Keep always loving your spouse despite with all their lackness, always can support him/her with all your might and be selfless for any problems you will facing together in life.

My Favorites Single Kanji

I like many Kanji with their own unique characteristics, but for a single Kanji, i like kanji Arashi 嵐 for storm, with “mountain” as a “crown” and “wind” as it’s “body”. I loved kanji Arashi 嵐 so much!

Tips for Avoiding Small Talk and Creating Real Conversations

You can start by looking recently interesting topics to talk, it can from real life, internet, TV, newspapers or anywhere.

How to Be Always Creative ?

 I think solution for this question is try to “Thinking outside the box” for creativity sake. Sometimes a problem NOT stricly just have one solution to to solve a problem, it can be may can solve by another ways (multi-solutions) and probably more better.

Creativity needs inspirations and fresh ideas from many ways, examples like reexamination and studying again the projects, what can you can add and what you can reducing it, what need to be change, what needed improvisations, etc.

Shortly to say, for creativity sake, let your mind free first, thinking outside the box with your own way and looking inspirations and ideas from many ways.
