Why you shouldn't stop loving Anime

There were many times when I told myself that I should give up on watching anime for private reasons I cannot express here. But there is this fixed part of me that will never allow this to happen. For some reasons, I just can’t give up watching, because if I did, I can’t imagine myself living without it.

Anime, or anything related, has the power to change me. It can make me depress, almost not allowing my tired body to sleep at night.

It has the power to take away my sense of reality.

It has the power to make me stronger, enabling myself to face and fight my fears,

and many more, but there is this most important thing that it keep on reminding this forgetful self of mine,

Anime keeps on saying,

“I am lucky to have a real life. Lucky to be born just the person who am I right now from the smallest particle that constitute my body, up to the largest unexplainable ingredient of my life.”

There are things I need to protect,

There are things lovable on this hateful world.

Anime is DEFINITELY not evil, just like what others say.

Because if it is, if anime is evil, then how come it can create angelic smiles on people’s faces?

If it is evil, then how come God allows its popularity to increase nowadays?

Most of all, if it is a work of evil, then how come it can lead a twisted life back to the straight road?

All of this is because Anime is created in order to save someone’s life by submerging oneself into the world of fantasy. In here, someone will see things that is different or if it exist, rarely and impossible to happen in real life.

Anime therefore is not a shortcut to escape from misfortunes brought by reality.

Anime is a road full of diversity and magic, wherein…

We learn important things we can use when we face reality once again. Anime is just another world created for people who by any chances won’t be able to learn everything he/she needs from reality.

I love Anime simply because…

They can teach me variety of things that I can’t catch from this real world.
