Right. So you agree with the idea?  :?

Now I need more input so my report is more credible. Just in case someone would oppose the thought.

Even more interesting.

There is such a thing as American culture, but we add on to it whenever different people with different ethnicities come to the US. It is because when people come here, they don't just want to abandon their old culture, so they take a little bit of it with them. Eventually, it just becomes part of the mainstream. Perhaps the act of having different bits of different cultures is American culture.

Was FanimeCon06 part of American culture? I'm doing a report on it now, and was wondering whether this type of fesivities add or diminish the culture of america.

My opinion is that it does not diminish, but rather add on to the culture, because America is so diverse. There are not only english people living here, but Japanese, Hispanic, African, ect. The culture of America represents all these different cultures so that when, for example, Cinco de Mayo is celebrated in the US, it doesn't look so out-of-place as it would, say...in Russia.

Anime has become a part of American society. Many kids around our age run to comic stores to buy manga. Kids in schools like showing off their anime drawings. There is always someone ready to eat Pocky...

If a convention like Fanime occurred in the US, it is not out-of-place. It's about as at home as it would be if it took place in Japan....

I mean, who wouldn't want to cosplay?
