With all the topics about the future of anime, I thought it might be interesting to have a poll that’s somewhat related to that theme. Last week’s poll sparked some really interesting discussions. This week’s poll is about the type of media you watch anime on:
If there are other sorts of media I’ve left out (cave paintings, flip books, interpretive dance), please let me know in the comments!

I love anime. Specifically, series involving any of the following things: weird fantasy elements, super-powers, robots, aliens, wicked humor, crazy villains, horror, ninjas and samurai. I guess that means I like a lot of anime. I am pretty particular about the quality of animation and voice acting. If the character designs and animation quality aren't of über-quality, I quickly loose interest.The first anime-related series I ever watched was Battle of the Planets - otherwise known as Gatachman. The first true theatrical anime feature film I saw was Akira. My first exposure to manga was later in life when I read Osamu Tezuka's Astro Boy.There are so many incredible elements of Japanese culture. Some of the most exciting to me are the style of design and storytelling. I'm a web designer & illustrator, and I find myself looking to Japanese design for inspiration all the time.Anime blogging has taught me even more about Japanese culture and anime than I ever expected, and I continue to learn more every week. In fact, I'd love to travel to Japan. Rachel and I hope to visit sometime within the next few years.
I buy DVDs but watch them on my computer, for lack of a TV…
/me on bed, notebook on me, anime on notebook
I beam mine directly into my head.
Got to say DVD I don’t have fast enough internet to watch stuff online and
to poor to affored anything else like blue ray and stuff like that

I rent my dvd’s through netflix, and watch them on my dvd player.
