Is it normal for a 20 year old to be obsessed with anime?

I'm a 20 year old female and know of other people my age that are hooked on anime or cartoons. At the moment I'm obsessed with One Piece and I kind of can't get enough of it. And when I don't watch it, I think about it for a few days and start watching it again.

Is it normal or what....? I wanna know if there are others out there who have an obsessions like me.

    Absolutely normal.

    Anime is just another form of entertainment, no different than any television show.
    Those who say it is childish obviously do not realize how many genres of anime are available.

    Though, don't become a hikkikomori!

    It's normal to watch anime when you're 20.

    But most obsessions are unhealthy.

    I find people obsessed with anime very annoying. Mostly because they say names and words in Japanese that just confuse the shit out of me. I have my own obsessions but anime is not one. Even though I gave them a chance, I can digest anime stuff if it is contained in at least a mildly good game with a great story. Disgaea for example.

    • Yea I know what you mean HarryUP...and yes i know a few people who are obsessed with anime and it is annoying when they start talking about anime when it isn't appropriate and it is annoying when they say names or words in Japanese, but that's just what you get. But depends on how you watch it or who you are with. You can get it in English Dubbed which is good...But for those who you are with, just tell them that you either you don't care or you don't want them to say anything in Japanese...if they can

    It's ok. I'm 20 also and I LOOOVE anime. Inuyasha, Kenshin, Bleach, Samurai Champloo, these are my ultimate favorites. Fullmetal Al. is cool. I'm an escapist and anime is my drug.

    Where I live I'm like one of only 3 people that like anime. I'll have a friend over and start watching fullmetal alchemist and he's like Wtf is this crap. People tell me I'm to old to watch it (in high school right now) but guess who has two thumbs and doesn't give a shit *thumbs up* me!

  • Yea but when you have something you enjoy watching and have a family that don't think of it like another TV series or whatever but a childish thing. I question myself if it's ok to watch anime at my age.

    I mean I grew up with cartoons, Pokemon was one of them. So then my curiosity lead to anime.
