    Im with you on this. I don’t dislike anime/manga as a medium. However, there is a tendancy for the format to exaggerate things I find annoying. That and the fan culture, much like many other highly dedicated fanbases, can be a major turn-off as well.

        If Fullmetal Alchemist cut out the super anime bits I would like it much better. The over exaggerated faces, the # forehead, going chibi, dramatically dropping animation quality. It was really hard for me to get through some elements of that show. I honestly think it was more of the fandom that ruined it for me, because whenever one of those anime tropes happened it reminded me of people who made those tropes their personality and I would be hit by a wave of cringe.
