Why can't i find Anime lovers in London?

What is wrong with this city? Are there any anime lovers here at all? I can't really find anyone who shares a passion for anime.

I live in Galway in Ireland and it's pretty rare here too. I guess if you hang out at a comic book shop in the manga section you're bound to meet plenty of people with the same interest.

Should've been at HyperJapan the other day; at least a thousand of them came crawling out of the woodworks!

oh give over you're not an anime fan. Do you cosplay?

Are you a die hard fan?

Or are you one of those girls that pretends to game and read manga for the sake of appearing hip?

:lol:

Yeah actually I do. I went to comiccon last year, I larp, I've been gaming since I was a child, have a 360 250 gig with several games, a gaming PC, several anime box sets, write fanfic as well as own several pieces of merch. I also draw my own stuff. I read graphic novels, some of my favourites are Batman: The Long Halloween, Joker, Knightfall, the fatale series, Saga, Blacksad (all of them) Trial of the Catwoman, Gotham Central (all of them), I could go on. I'm also learning Japanese so I can watch anime in it's original language. Check my post history if you're that bothered, I've mentioned it before (as well as my anime crush and other related stuff lol)

How stereotypical that the minute a girl admits she likes something stereotypically male, she's bombarded with questions and accusations and "tested" to see if she's a real fan. These same men tend to go on to moan "how come women don't ever like cool stuff like gaming and graphic novels!!1!"
