The most "weeb" thing of all -- as in something only Western foreigners who see Japanese culture in a weirdly condescending orientalizing way think -- is making "anime" into this aspirational term I mean, it just means "cartoons" It doesn't mean "good" or anything https://twitter.com/BlackDGamer1/status/1361352840980164609 …

exactly. the Japanese people I've talked to usually think it's cool that I research anime but then, being an academic probably makes people think you're not the otaku stereotype. But they don't generally know many anime themselves beyond kids' shows, Ghibli and Evangelion
