To blush when an anime or cartoon character blushes
This only happens when the characters I love, blush. It doesn't happen every time though. Anyone have like a legit, educated psychological reasoning. Just curious.
Help us keep this site organized and clean. Thanks!

Have you ever heard someone call yawning 'contagious'?
Think of it like this... If yawning when someone else yawns is a way of relating to people we care about, a way of unconsciously letting them know that we know how they are feeling, then wouldn't blushing also be the same? The more empathetic you are, the more likely you are to catch second-hand embarrassment from your friend (or in this case, an anime character), when they feel embarrassed.
It is part of mirroring behavior. You are indicating empathy with another individual.

Unlike western shows and movies, where they usually lack detail and emotion, the majority of these animations are just as good as the books if not better.
Compared to most overly dramatic western TV shows, the protagonists of these animations or anime are usually very relatable (shy, socially awkward, misunderstood, depression, etc..) as that is the author's goal; to make the reader feel a deeper connection to the character.
There is also not a oversaturated use of comedy in these shows, which in turn make it more realistic although it is animated and sometimes even with superpowers.It is for this reason that I believe the viewers of these Japanese animations tend to be relatively polite.
Thanks
