Have you guys ever thought bout straying away from anime?
As in, stop watching anime?
Anime is a medium. And as long as good stories are still being told with it, I don't see any reason to "stray away".
I don't devour anime quite as much as I did when I was first getting into it, but that's simply because I've eaten a lot of the low-hanging fruit... the classics, the obvious recommendations, the things that appeal particularly strongly to my interests, etc. But I've still got a backlog of anime I'm working my way through and there's still new stuff coming out that piques my interest. Actually, just today I was looking up
Mamoru Hosoda to see if he had any new movies in the works, and I found out that he does... and in fact, it hits theaters in Japan tomorrow.
That being said, I have been watching more live-action stuff lately... mainly movies. But I attribute this primarily to the fact that there's WAAAAY more live-action stuff than there is anime. The whole entire world produces live-action films, whereas only Japan produces "anime".
As a result, applying my 90% crap 10% good rule of thumb, there's a lot more good movies out there than there are anime. And I was neglecting live-action stuff while I was in my anime craze, so now I'm trying to catch up a bit to balance things out. But I still watch anime... watched some last night, and will probably watch some this evening before I go to bed.
