Because most plots in アニメ are a hell of a lot better than that of regular shows. あなた can only go so far with a plot in a regular テレビ 表示する but with アニメ it's endless! あなた can make the characters do literally anything あなた want them too. Especially with weapons and fighting. Plus あなた just can't get the same reaction with a classic アニメ blush または shock expression! =] Oh yeah and as for cartoons...there's just no true substance. There's really no theme to them. I need something with a purpose not just a bunch of common funny words thrown together to make me laugh (which it never does) and hope it gets popular.
I mean come on! Do あなた think あなた can get these types of faces in real life XD!
I watch アニメ because i think its better than American cartoons, i mean each アニメ is different from one another, and each one is unique, i just think アニメ is もっと見る unique and different than normal cartoons.
