They're nice, ITL. I'm kind of in the same place where I don't really know anything about anime but I like the artwork.

No idea who they are - I've never seen the Anime in question, I just like the artwork.
;D

I don't think Anime can be classed as just 'cartoons' - most of them have adult stories and complex plots - not that I watch them! lol
Anyway, I'm interested in them an a purely aesthetic level - If I can make a nice wall out of them, that's good enough for me.
And there's nothing wrong with cartoons in my opinion - it just depends which ones you watch.
;D

oh. i stopped watching cartoons because i think they are boreing,the only one i watch is the simpsons. Wait, you don't like boring cartoons yet you watch the Simpsons? Would somebody please direct me to the logic? the last anime thing i was that weird show about cards, its like pokemon only with cards. i was really weird. I'd put my money on that be Yu-Gi-Oh! There's a lot of anime about cards but Yu-Gi-Oh! is the only card battling cartoon that's made it big in the U.S. I've never been a big anime fan myself (the characters are too lifeless), but most of my friends are, so I have to sit through a bunch of anime conversations. They also try to push megatokyo on me but I'm just not into it.

the simpsons isnt boring, its funny. Depends what season you're referring to. Now a days they've used up all their good ideas and have gotten a little repetitive.

I swore I'd never do this.......but can we drag this back on topic? This thread is for Anime wallpapers, not general cartoon discussion.
(Yes, I'm looking at you, ITL!)

That's from Samurai X the Movie, n'est pas? Not brilliant stuff- mostly just a bunch of flashbacks trying to be dramatic. But VERY cool art. I loooove anime, although I'm no expert.
If you like horror, rent HELLSING on DVD- it's the creepiest vampire variation in years. And the artwork is FABULOUS!

BTW. the Simpsons may be getting a little repetitive, but after more than a decade that's understandable. They are still way funnier than non-animated family sitcoms. Those shows like According to Jim, and My wife and Kids, ughhh!

For the record, here's the unofficial universal lingo...
Anime = Japanese cartoons, big eyes, etc. There is no é on the end. Cartoon = Any animated film, short or series. Manga = Japanese comic books, which are the origin of most popular anime serieses. Shoujo = Japanese manga stories (generally) for girls, usually involving adventure (with female heros) and hot guys. (eg. Fushigi Yuugi, Inu Yasha) Shounen = Japanese manga stories (generally) for boys, usually involving adventure (with male heros) and hot girls. Less romance in these ones. (eg. Yu-Gi-Oh, Dragonball) Hentai = Anime porno. Avoid, avoid! Ecchi = Softcore/very suggestive anime porno. Avoid! Yuri = Girl on girl stuff Yaoi = Guy on guy stuff
