Anime is usually defined as animation produced in Japan. But that's just stupid, I watch the content and I don't care about where it's made. Therefore we should come up with a better definition of anime based on its style.
I think merch of anime are really stupid, even more so with them being priced so ridiculously high. It's basically robbery. I mean, a mid-sized badge for 30 CNY, seriously? Fuck the merch, just watch the show already. I'd like to hear your opinions on this one.
