Well, pretty much all I was gonna say has been said. All I can add is that I personally watch tons of anime but that doesn't make me any of the things you stereotyped me as. I like something or I don't, whether it comes from Japan, American, or Emporer Xenu, it doesn't matter to me. I don't put labels and limitations on everything =}

And what Behold the Void pointed out is actually very true. When something gets fansubbed and explodes in internet popularity it almost always gets dragged to the states. Naruto became a huge dealio and before long we had a licensed version of it. Bleach has risen out of the underground and become a cult-thing, and lo' and behold Adult Swim has it scheduled to air soon.

You say these otakus run around loving all things from Japan and loving only things from Japan, but that's not a whole lot better than hating on it all either =o...
