The funniest part was when they interviewed the american and they completely mistranslated his answers to make him seem like he was a self-loathing otaku who wished he was Japanese when at best he was just a moderate anime fan.

I watched and rewound that section for hours, and the guy's dialog in english is pretty funny. Likes like...

Just like the fighting game Arm Joe (a fighting game based on Victor Hugo's Les Miserables, the name is a misinterpretation of the japanese title Aa Mujou), which was made by ONE person too (took him four years!).

Fun game by the way.Download it here.

Jean Valjean versus Eponine.

Javert versus Thenardier.

Probably one of the finest spoofs in all of anime.

When asked, 100% of anime fans said they would buy cells from their favorite anime, even if they knew it was stolen.

Only 23% of the population know that May is bull-shit statistics month.
