I really don’t to seen like I seriously scorn Japanese culture or those who appreciate it. I really did mean it in a joking manner.
When I said “I told myself anime was cringe” I meant that more jokingly and I really just wanted to focus on old western cartoons and I didn’t want to be distracted by anime.
I’ve always loved Japanese culture. Pokemon and Naruto are basically my childhood after all.
I will say I might have been a little petty though in that I had a sort of furry vs weeb mentality where I felt like anime fans looked down on furries (not a furry but I like furry adjecent stuff) and by extension the classics like Nimh, so I did feel a slight grudge, but nothing serious.
I’ll admit it was kind of childish of me to think like that but I do really like Japamese stuff and always will. Though I do hope to watch stuff like Fantasia sometime.
I hope this clears stuff up. I can be childish a lot.
