True enough, but if there's one thing I can't stand, it's people making
*huge* generalizations about things they've only had a cursory
experience with. Saying anime sucks because of a few poorly drawn
movies/shows is like saying the entire American entertainment industry
sucks because of a few bad movies/shows.

As for the whole exaggeration thing, it's *supposed* to be silly. That's
why they do it; for comedic effect. If you look at more "serious" anime
(Princess Mononoke, Cowboy Bebop, etc), those exaggerations rarely
occur. The same can be said for American cartoons.

Well, saying the American entertainment industry sucks might not be such
a huge stretch...
