text: It's just a sci-fi movie (with groundbreaking CGI and a strong lead character who'll tug at your heartstrings which is very unexpected in a sci-fi/action movie). As soon as someone mentions it was based on a manga/anime, the stigma of "weebs" takes over and everyone shouts yuck. I swear, anime fans are more discriminated against than [gays](URL now. Not surprising since today's youth are fucking gay.
