So, what's with all the Anime avatars?

[Space Cowboy]

Not sure why that became so popular - I mean every second person on the Internet suddenly had an Anime avatar at one point, especially on Steam. And there are not even that many Manga style games on PC - that is actually more Console (especially Playstation) territory. I'm not judging by the way - I just find it to be an interesting trend which I don't understand in any way. Are Animes still that popular? Last real good one I've seen was Death Note and since then I felt that anime stuff is rather getting worse than better. Just my personal opinion, though - I'm propably just getting too old and grumpy ;) .

I think Anime really is growing.. but i do not think there are that many of them to be honest.. i think its more that is a group one can remember as seeing that make it look like there are that many of them

This is the internet. The better question would be, why don't you have an anime avatar?

So, it's mandatory now if you're on the internet? Oh, crap, I'm really getting too old for this :D

People really need to learn that an account level of 0 simply means the user is using privacy settings. Yeah I know. Strange concept isn't it. People not wanting others snooping around their profiles.

Well said. I should go into hiding too.

I'm not complaining - I just noticed and I'm just curious as I always am.

It's still really popular and anime avatars are especially cute

At one point I actually was into anime big time - NGE, Elfenlied, Wolf's Rain, Akira, Cowboy Bebob, GITS, Samurai Champloo, Death Note, Paprika, all the Hayao Miyazaki stuff and a few I can't remember at the moment. For me, it never got any better than that, though. Any decent new Shonen or Seinen out there? Maybe I missed something.

Black Lagoon, of course - did they ever finish that one? That was just awesome!

I'm not even sure what anime is. :)

[SkatingHobo™]

I agree

[Littlefoot]

Who knows.

And my avatar is not from an anime.

An INVERSE relation, sure.
