[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Weird. An attractive man I know at work asked me out to lunch sometime. His previous monologue about how he often spends his days off watching anime movies.

I don't doubt that some cartoon/animation can often have artistic quality, but it being a primary or major interest is seriously weird and hard to overlook. [/quote]

DP, not OP.

I loathe the look of anime (yes, anime fans, sorry) but I can still see how adults are into it as a hobby.

It's another form of storytelling and most people love stories in SOME form. Some people enjoy novels, others movies, some watch lots of TV shows, some love anime, others won't miss their favorite podcasts. I have two (not animated) TV shows I probably know too much about and yes, I seek out interviews and articles about them when I'm relaxing. I guess I'm weird in OP's book and yours too, or is the issue only with adults liking anime, PP? It's...a story.

If the guy at work were into, say, Clint Eastwood Western movies, or the "Law and Order" TV series, or Marvel movies, and binged things like that on his days off -- would you still consider him "seriously weird"? Why would that be less weird than binging anime, other than [i]you[/i] might not like anime personally? I can't stand it, but I still understand the appeal to others and don't find it weird unless he's obsessive about it or expects you to act out anime fantasies with him....
