And if there's any show that requires so little of your attention so you can vote on a website while its airing, it's DBZ Kai Buu. |
You'd probably be hard pressed to find someone in Japan that doesn't watch anime while they've got their laptop. phone, or tablet handy. I know I'm usually on the computer while watching TV, I wouldn't get anything done if I wasn't doing both.

The Japanese are night owls. Late to bed, late to rise. Haven't you ever noticed that they leave for school and work kinda late in the morning and clubs get out at sunset? They aren't like most of the world where you leave for school just after sunrise (or in the dark in the winter). They even rewrote their clocks for things like 25:00 hours instead of 01:00 to adjust for their late night lifestyles. There's definitely people awake for the late shows.

This is true. I play smite with a japanese guy and he told me most people are like that. I know that he rarely sleeps, we even make jokes about it

This sentence reeks of "casual fans don't count. Only hardcore fans do" elitism.

You sound like such a nice person. I never even implied that. Do you even know what elitism is?

You'd be so happy once the sales numbers of the volume 1s of the spring anime come out.

I could've sworn you originally wrote a line about 'me being frustrated because this poll isn't related to the industry'... which was quite ironic, coming from a regular visitor of BD/DVD sales threads. Apparently you edited it & changed the line into a question about elitism... which I understand very well but, hey, why should I tell you?
Keep relating "enjoyment" to $$$$$, and you this life veeery dull, man.
Should I be excited when I find out a number of overseas audiences love an anime like I do, to the point that said anime tops some random poll? Why not?
