Granted that clip is better than the eppisodes I've seen, but there's still no articulation in the facial expressions. Everyone has a universally determined expression which never wavers, the most you get is a turn of the head now and again. The only things with any personality are the bots.
Like I said before I'm not trying to make a value judgment on the show. But as far as I'm concerned the character articulation is flat and that's a huge factor for my enjoyment of a show. So I respect the fact that you enjoy it but I don't and that's not likely to change.

I never said I didn't like it. I actually DO like it, considering I have 33+ volumes of the manga. The anime though, yes could've done better in the time skip thing cause I'm sure everyone was hoping for Kakashi's back story to be animated but it's fine. I just meant that it's a good example (anime wise) for this sort of thread. 'Course, I'm not much of a Studio Pierrot (sp?) fan.

Because it doesnt deserve its popularity. Its the Eragon of anime. Actually, I'd say Naruto is the Harry Potter of anime. Both have an equal level of suck. *karma* Eragon did not deserve the recognition it got. It was a good read, but I've read much, much better books. I could probably write one, too.And Harry Potter... how the heck did it even get so popular? As for Naruto, it's decent, but I could never get hooked on it. But to keep on topic... All of the anime cliches. Nosebleeds and bulging veins in particular. Sweatdrops I don't mind.

It became popular because the writing style works very well for a very wide demographic. The characters and setting are also quite likeable. All of the anime cliches. Nosebleeds and bulging veins in particular. Sweatdrops I don't mind. While your at it how about "chibi sucks"

Chibis rock!!!
I have one. How about how time passes in anime? I watched the Case Closed movie the other day and we were at the part where the chick was choosing between the red and blue wires on the bomb. I swear, while she was reaching for the wires, it took her five minutes just to do that.

^Haha.
I love how in DBZ 5 minutes is 14 episodes, and yet 3 years is 30 seconds. And the room of spirit and time? Oh the wonky inconsistencies...

That fight with Freeza...wow I remember that. I watched that with some of my friends who really liked DBZ and they were all yelling and saying how awesome it was. I never understood why...I laugh everytime they power-up cause it takes forever!
