You have a point.  I admit that I'm just biased
towards anime as they are "not my cup of tea".  :/

I'm not under the impression that you are telling me
what to read, so no worries  ~:D !  As far as the
audience I've observed, it has really only been a
limited one -- the "oyaji" salary-men on the trains,
who probably being drained from work seek to
revitalize by flipping through anime!  :T

Anyhow, if I in-/directly offended anyone out there by
stating my own preference toward anime, I apologize.
<hoping a group of anime-fanatics will not gang up on
me>

Your points have been noted...

Myymoo!
