A fad is one thing fleeting - a momentary craze that is going to blow over in a matter of months when something better comes along. More than anything, proclaiming that something is 'just a fad' is an insult. It implies that something is not good enough to be kept and also to be remembered and is not really worth all the attention finally. It's really a horrendous insult. And unfortunately, a great deal of men and women are proclaiming that anime is just a fad.
Maybe I'm biased, because I am an anime fan myself. But really, from the way things look, anime doesn't seem like 'just a fad'. As well as if it is, it's taking incredibly long to die down.
I'll be honest. In the US, anime began as a massive fad. While it is not officially the first anime to be shown in the US and certainly not the very first one to become popular, DBZ played a tremendous role in popularizing anime. There were anime series which were popular too like Astroboy and Gundam. Although the debut of Dragon Ball Z in cartoon network was the one that hyped up the perception of anime within the US and amassed millions and millions of followers. Remember, why would not it? DBZ is just one of the most epic anime of all time. And in the united states, anime then was something new and different. It was a really smart move for cartoon network to include anime within their program. Through the years, in contrast, the hype for DBZ died down and anime once again fell into obscurity.
Alternatively, even if the hype died down, there were a bunch of fans which will remain loyal. And as the net grew in popularity and scope, increasingly more people were able to get access to Japan's extensive collection of cartoons. Anime, the truth is, might be more popular in Europe. And therefore, you'll find anime that are already translated and subtitled, mostly by fans. It was a startling discovery, this amazing treasure trove of anime series with amazing plotlines and great characters. But none of these watching full anime were dubbed. A lot of them were just 'subbed' or subtitled in English. But apparently, the stories are just so good that men and women were ready to contend with the subs. Thousands of forums were created, dedicated to certain anime series that men and women took a liking too. And many anime series, especially the ones which were also popular in Japan, also gathered a huge following within the other parts of the world.
Although not all individuals have the patience to read those all-too-small subtitles in anime. As such, a lot of people have to wait for the anime to air on television rather than to watch the anime in the internet. Cartoon Network plays a tremendous role within this, as they are often individuals who air the anime series that have recently been dubbed in English.
By now, Cartoon Network is showing the English Dubbed Version of Naruto. Naruto in America is still a ways off from catching up to the Naruto Shippuden that's airing in Japan as well as in the web also. But already, Naruto is gathering a massive following, almost around DBZ did.
Anime, it appears, is here to stay. Because even if the hype over the new craze today, which is Naruto, dies down, you will always find new anime series from Japan that may effortlessly entertain individuals all around the world.
