    Cool

    cant say I agree. Its probably just a bunch of kids at your school who have similar interests. We all tend to flock like sheep.

    Your high school makes up the majority of emo and gothic kids? Wow, your school must be hard to be in if you're in a different clique.

    i can make that assumption cus every other dood in the manga section of the book store is goth, scene, or emo.
    yeah
    maybe they just want something to make them feel better
    too bad anime and manga aren't real, which makes me lols watching them get really into it
    and have you seen cosplay photos?
    either the people are asian, or goth
    yeah

    at my university, manga and anime are overly common among the people that study japanese.

    it's a cliché, but it's a common truth too.
    I actually dare to bet that more than half of the people that study japanese just do so to be able to read and understand anime, i don't think a lot of them are actually planning to go there in the future to actually work.

    i have live witnessed a few guys from that class discussing drawings saying "oh look, this picture clearly shows more emotion than the previous one, i copied this from a Magic Card".

    i might be generalising this in a way, i won't deny, but nevertheless, japanese is a hype in the west, and for over 50% solely for the hype of anime.
    there are also a few emo's in the japanese class, but i'm not aware wether they watch anime or not. (i don't think the girl does)

    i would link anime more to the common japanese lifestyle hype rather than to emo lifestyle

    Same thing where I live, most of the emos and goths watch it. Everyone who takes japanese class watches it too.

    The only time I ever heard anyone talk about anime in my school was in my drafting class where a few guys were talking about gunadam and no one in my drafting class is emo.

    They don't. End of story.

    However there are groups of nasty anime viewers who dress like shit and think they're cool who often get mislabeled as emo.
