This week I have really been concentrating on how to do my essay, all the different ways I can perceive the information and how I can come up with new ways to think about my argument. Through one ways that I was able to come up with an idea is how people watch Anime.
I have never been a fan of Anime so this was a way for me to research some of the cultural background behind by some people like Anime.
I have a couple of friends who are big anime fans and they often will watch anime through using sub tiles. One of the sources I got for my essay was the usage of anime as one of the shows to learn the foreign language. Although, I'm not specifically looking into foreign language I do think that it is relevant to mention anime because of the huge fan base it has.
Anyways, what I learned was that Anime is very motivated to keep the roots of their culture which is why a lot of anime isn't available with spoken over English. This allows them for the person who is watching to have to listen to Japanese. I talked this over with one of my friends who likes anime. They said that even when there is anime who has English spoken over in anime it isn't the same and not as many episodes are offered with the English spoken over version. I think this is really interested because they had a strong purpose to maintain their culture and they have maintained as their fan base grows. It's a very respectful things to do and it also encourages people to learn the language.
