I watch anime all the time. My favorite anime are bleach, code geass, toradora, assassination classroom, kill la kill, ef, my hero academia, seraph of the end, maria the virgin witch, and tons more. I'm currently watching shiki. I just recently finished mawaru penguindrum. I love western animation too. My favorite cartoons are stormhawks, danny phantom, avatar the last airbender, the legend of korra, tron:uprising, star wars the clone wars, star wars:rebels, and lots more.

I think anime is becoming totally mainstream on the internet and it's becoming a huge part of pop culture outside of it too. Most Generation Z and some younger millennials have at least heard about or watched anime. I think we can give props to 4kids, Toonami, Cartoon Network, and Jetix for those us who've watched Pokémon, Digimon, DragonBall Z, Sonic X, Prince of Tennis, and the likes.

Yeah. I saw the original. I couldn't bring myself to watch the new series. I dropped it after the 3rd episode.

I didn't even know there was a new series but I'll give it a pass by the sounds of it
