[QUOTE="RangerWickett, post: 1576523, member: 63"] I'm sorry. I was being silly. I'm not insulting people who [i]dislike[/i] anime; I'm poking fun at the people who say they 'hate' it. I can understand people who are frustrated that D&D art is turning more anime-ish; something they like is changing. What I don't get is people getting violently angry that artists have different styles. Honestly, I think it's very important to make fun of people getting so up in arms about such a trivial thing. Y'know, like what South Park does. Oh, crap. I'm gonna get this thread closed, aren't I? Well, in an attempt to not be personally insulting, I'll say that I know that you cannot convince someone who hates an art style that they're wrong. But I don't like it when my fellow gamers look down on a particular type of game or book because it's not something they like. I don't like people pretending that one form of having fun is better or worse than another. I admit, I am a little frustrated that people don't like anime-esque art. I think it pushes toward looking more cool than what was traditionally associated with old-school D&D, and the anime-esque art that does show up in D&D is not the over-the-top mouths as big as your head, sweatdrop stuff. It's stuff like this: [/QUOTE]
