Im not mad at them of course there will be non-fans of Anime and Manga. My problem was, that these guys are really poor article writters, who have only based their opinions on a few things (Dragon Ball Z). As for the shooting balls of fire and flying, Seen X-men or Supreman much? Yeah they fly and do a whole bunch of the same things from what I've seen. And alot of anime fans have done the same gamers things that they glorify too. Anyways, I feel sorry for the school that uses them as a reporter, because obviously, they don't know how. Any reporter that uses "really really really really stupid" as their proof...isn't much of a reporter if you ask me. But I guess they just need someone to nicely and calmly explain to them the meaning behind a few of the things they mention, that is if they are the type of people to listen. oh well.
Exactly. If you're going to write an article on something like this, the very least one can do is to sample various types of anime before writing. Calling themselves sophisticated writers and then writing a poor article without even titles to supply proof says nothing for their credibility. But I would't worry about it, it's just an article. Trust me I've seen much worse articles of parents claiming that anime is the devil and should be banned etc, and no harm has come of it yet. Just one or two people's opinions in a vast sea of people. It's their opinion and they're entitled to it. Surely you can't force the entire world to like anime, just like you can't force the entire world to choose cats over dogs or vice versa.
