Question: Lots of anime fans want to make anime, why? I mean I like music but it doesn't mean I want to be a musician, I'd be terrible!  I'm practically tone deaf.  And a lot of the fans only care about whether a picture looks like a anime, not whther it's good or not.  And when you try and tell them that there are no schools that teach 'anime' in America and that non Japanese company is going to hire them unless they are supernaturally talented, which of course means they have to learn how to animate first, they get all ticked off.  Yeesh!  I mean, concentrate on getting your owns tyle and imitating the popular styles in America if you want a job here.\nI do not get it at all.  I'm an anime fan too, and I don't want to crush your dreams but some of them are old enough to know better.\n\nThere a few people I know who will suceed that animate in that style and that is because they are talented animators and artists and prove that they can do lots of styles.  They are artists first, and anime fans after.

Answer: Good question. Yes they probally want to attempt to make their own anime by just pure inspiration. But why stop them? Let them at least try. And maybe at one point, it'll be just a phase and they just want to give up on it. Maybe theres a chance that they wont be good enough no matter the teachings that have been given to them. And maybe they might succeed. But either way, they are doing it. Even though i find it abit dumb myself. I cant find them dumb for being an anime fan.
