I grew up in Lawndale and every black person I knew was way into the Super Saying show. Are anime fans more prevalent in the African American community?

we're living in the post-cultural world

literally everything that used to be monolithic culture due to boundaries of communication is becoming subcultures of choice

i'm just saying outside of america local cultures are still going strong despite all the "culture" america thinks it is exporting. imo it's not that in america it's moved past culture towards new frontiers of expression, it just never got any in the first place. the niche groups fill the vacuum.

I know exactly one black guy and he would be loving up to his face in vagina if not for the fact that "3d girls are disgusting". also he loving unironically loves tentacle porn. suburbs ruin some people.

I think the difference is black people seem to think anime is cool and not shameful to like, and they're right, it rules

when you realize how cool and retarded everything is you will tilt your head back and laugh at the sky
generally speaking black ppl don't have the same stigmas against anime+videogames etc so its very common for them to enjoy them because both of those things, are very good.

they can pretend the characters are asian instead of white and that they are watching a minority ensamble instead of white peoples on tv.
