Anime Weekend??

I ...

I have a guilty pleasure.

Anime.

I know, pretty weird, huh? Well I guess that goes to show you just how bored I get on most of my weekends. OK, so it started Saturday, and I was bored (as usual) and said to myself, "Since I always liked Sailor Moon when I was little, why not see what the actual show was like?" I came. I saw. I... Didn't care much for it, actually. It may just be one of those things you outgrow.

Actually, anime's been around for a while with me, I just never knew it. My first was, what, Pokemon? Digimon? I don't know. But we all know how both of those ended up. Digimon's a canceled reject of a show and Pokemon's stuck on endless loop, only with new pokemon they thought of when they got drunk last Friday night. Kidding. Maybe.

So I said, "Dang, little kid disappointment. What else is there?" Then I remembered: Naruto.

Yes, I've hit rock bottom in coolness. But hey, ninjas man, FTW!

The weird thing is, I liked it a lot more than I wanted to. It's kind of like Death Note... Actually it's nothing like Death Note, I just wanted a comparison. It's sort of like an iPod. There are some cool songs on it that most people like, but then there's stuff that no one's heard of/listens to anymore (Ex., in my case, Alice in Videoland, David Bowie, Maximum the Hormone, The Beatles) and would make fun of you for even having on there. Naruto = David Bowie. Wow, that's a bit weirder than I thought it'd be.

P.S. - I know I say this all the time, but I've got an excuse! SATs. Nuf said. Actually this is the first time I've taken them, and they suck like those tests we took in grade school.
