True anime fan or casual anime fan

I'm in between. I don't have a whole lot of anime merchandise but I watch a lot of anime and love manga as well. I almost exclusively watch subs except for good and funny dubs like DBZ that was just funny

Tiger Festival i was alot like you at 1st. I didnt have alot of money so i found ways around it. I download all the subbed anime i watch which doesnt cost me anything. There are also sites out there that offer downloads for english dubs and/or dvd/blu ray rips. So there are free avenues to get anime you just have to ask around or look for them.

^ I Do watch alot of free dubbed anime TBH at Dubhappy and other places. But boy don't I get called a cheapskate for it, lol. Aside from that I've no beef with fanatics, if your all into the anime merchandise and subs , cons etc. I have no beef, Those that I have a beef with are those Elitists, they PISS me off >_<

Yes i do to tiger i have seen them befor at cons lol i spent hundreds of dollars on my merchandise and i have so much more knowledge then you over anime im hardcore and your not seriously i have heard that to many times at cons lol

haha actually after watching soo many non mainstream series i like them more than the mainstream stuff. Theres some exceptions of coarse like dbz, but i dont like alot of filler in my shows. Mainstream shows like naruto/bleach get so watered down and they keep dragging them out cus they are popular enuff to do so. @metal haha funny ppl can actually say that with a straight face. The only thing i say is true is the knowledge. I mean duh if ive seen over 300 series and youve only watched naruto and fma well then ya i am gonna have more knowledge.

im in that range of anime as well but im just an otaku nothing more nothing less
