Sokka's A Scat Man

When people to talk to me about Anime, i never fail to mention my faverout shows- but whenever Avatar the last airbender crops up, people instantly jump on the fact that its apperently not a 'real anime' and im sick of it! What rite do they have to sneer at me for my taste in anime?! Just because Avatar is a low budjet creation, heavily influenced by american culture and obviously made for kids TV, it doesnt make it any less of a good show, right? I mean really, a show doesnt have to be full of spectacular art work and totally unique ideas to be enjoyable! I dont know about you guys, but presonaly i think that all the above mentioned makes it a genarelly more easy-going and light hearted show thats great to watch when your in need of a little no-brainer, fun TV!
Please tell me what YOU think!!!
thanks for reading!
