re: Anime Fans - Recommendations in OP **Awesomeness Edition**

I too used to think japanimation was for the dorks who sat in the tv room of the dormatory or student union at 2:00 am on a Friday night. You all know that stereotype is kinda spot on.

However, after a party one night when I was floating back to my dorm on a magic fungus ride, I detoured into the tv room and sat down on a couch to watch tv. A few dudes were there like usual watching of all things Akira. It blew my mind (though I wasn't in reality at that moment anyhow). Regardless, it was amazing.

My next anime experience was Ghost in the Shell. Incredible. I've been hooked ever since (without the aid of a fungal remedy)...
