>>21510337I'll give you that. I'm a sucker for Cowboy Bebop myself. Berserk is good too. Those are at least manly anime/manga.
But it does seem like there is a proliferation of girly animes that dudes get strangely attached to nowadays. They start posting online with avatars of their favorite anime girl. Before you know it they start dressing up as the anime girl they like. No longer content to simply enjoy the anime girl as a bystander, but to be the anime girl themselves.
