Seconded this: People who use Japanese words out of context. Is it to look cute?
People who believe they are certain characters. The only characters they are are themselves.
Wapanese. Culture shock?
Oh yeah I know a girl who knows Japanese like the back of her hand and she gets tweaked at stuff like that.

My annoyance is people who think anime is for little kids. >__< Or people who call western anime ripoffs real anime.

1: American voice acting
2: When the plotline tries to make a scientific explanation that isn't in agreement with any well excepted theories.
My message to anyone who creates this type of anime:
I will personaly walk up in your production studio with Stephen Hawking and Schrodinger and "teach you a lesson" (And if anyone brings up any of the M-"Theory" Punks... it's down. Proving that "Theory" is slightly harder than proving the existence of God.)
3: People expecting you to get every name/word that's Japanese correctly. You know what? Do I expect you to know what Wave Function Collapse or what (now moving on to tech terms) SCSI or ISA stand for? I have a hard time speaking English godamnit, now don't expect me to know the pronunciation and be able to perfectly enunciate a name of an anime. This is America, the cultural butcher shop.

Pet Peeve #27.  US video company licenses series, announces it will be available in February of the following year, and then pushes it back with no explanation!

I'll also second that.
Also, I'll ad people who see hentai and automatically think "Oh my god... Anime is the devil! How could they target this at kids..."

DING DING DING DING DING!!!!!  We have a winner!  I wouldn't mind if people were just so self absorbed that they had no fun...cause frankly that's their problem.  But when they start making fun of other cosplayers...yeah that just irks me.

When poorly raised American kids watch "violent" animes (Naruto, anyone?) and end up killing one another.

Parents teaching kids reality from fantasy is win. Parents using TV and cable as free babysitters is lose.

Or for that matter, that CARTOONS in general aren't just for little kids! (Of course, they believe this in the face of Family Guy, South Park, Drawn Together, King of the Hill, The Simpsons, even some of the older WB cartoons... NEVER MIND THAT, CARTOONS/COMICS ARE ONLY FOR KIDS.)

I totally agree. Also it gets to me when you have those people who are cosplaying but then get all pissed off when you ask to take their picture. Hello? Why'd you even cosplay if you didn't want some attention and camera time?

Wait, excuse me? Not everyone cosplaying is doing it for attention and having their photos taken. The point of cosplay is to wear a costume to portray your love for the character. Why would you get upset if they said a no to having their photo taken? It's up to them, and what their comfortable with. The only reason why any of them would get 'pissed off' is if you're being persistent about it.

I see I my wording didn't put forth my point. It is totally their right to say no to a picture. But getting attention and getting asked for their pictures is a natural thing to happen and should be expected when you through on a cosplay outfit. What gets me is when they get all upset and angry becuase you've asked.  It's happened to my friend on several occations at the last convention we went together. I don't know if that is particularly rare or what, but she wasn't even being persistant, asked them once and they get all angry and start calling names as she walked away. It really made me arngy to see my friend treated that way and there would have been violence if she wasn't insistant on just moveing on.
And I didn't speak out that little nib of info about cosplayers dressing for their love of the character becuase i thought that was understood, I'm sorry. I myself cosplay and understand that for the sake of loveing this character and to play then that as a bi-product attention of others will be drawn and questisions for picutres and hugs will be asked.
That brings another thing that gets to me. people who hug without permission, or hug all messy like and tear or damage the outfit that took me weeks on weeks to make..
Now i sound like a total ass haveing to clarify this..sorry, i really don't wanna make trouble.
