No matter how irrelivant due to your opinion or whatever means you will use to deny this, I find it kquite annoying when you can't talk to someone about anime without them talking about the self proclaimed 'own genre' classic . Although Yes, Cowboy Bebop deserves its fame, you can't sit there & say it deserve it's fame because it appeals to you, why no one should care enough about DB/Z to talk about it.
And as for fads, they teach us about that crap at school. And when it's been around for so long, & will be around with atleast certain fans, I'm not gonig to pass it off as 'just another fad'.
Which then again I call no anime a fad. Sure, I was into pokemon when it first came out, but I wasn't one of the little fu*k heads runnig around that liked it just because it was the 'in thing'. I likied it because it was new & original to me. A type of show I'd never seen, & the games to were fun. I didn't get out of the 'trend' of Pokemon till atleast 3-4 years after all the fuss died down with the people of my age, & that was only because I don't watch anime of TV (besides DVDs) & the games are all basicly remakes. But, if it were to come out on (HK) DVD I'd be the first & only kid I know to own the entire series, or even parts of it for that matter.
Point being, anime you're calling stupid fads just because every 3 year old is runnig around making fools of themselves by yelling 'go pikachu' & 'I summon Dark Magican!' will/has atleast leave a lasting effect on me for one, & I'm sure I'm not alone.
