There's another one: Overindulged-Fantasy Boy. His superpower is that he cannot remove himself from whatever ego-induced fantasy world he has thrust himself into.
O-F Boy: "I'm Naruto! Look at my headband. I'm wearing it because I'm Naruto!" *lifts up shirt to reveal a badly Sharpied-on spiral and squiggle lines* "See that? That's where the fox demon in sealed up. In my belly. Because I'm Naruto!"

If you think about it, Daredevil has the worst power. He got his power from being freaking blind. Sure, the other stuff's cool, but he's BLIND. _________________ I am Jack's Fight Club reference. |

I'd like the power to banish all Naruto cosplayers from cons. Seriously, there's like a billion of them at every con. _________________ This space left intentionally blank.

Wha?... how exactly? How does the obvious incredible popularity of the anime stop it from being licensed in the US. My guess was just that the studio that has the rights to sell was just waiting for it to finish airing, so that they might get a higher price for it. _________________ This space left intentionally blank.

Possibly because these people steal it and so the potential buyers don't think there will be as much of a profit? _________________ anime is teh s uck

Or by the "obvious incredible popularity" driving the licensing price out of affordability. _________________ "When I became a man, I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up."- C.S. Lewis

So, in other words, the more popular an anime is, the less likely it is to come to America. Considering how screwed up the media is, that deosn't surprise me.
And DAMN Andromaton posts a lot. _________________ I am Jack's Fight Club reference. |

meh. it's all business. if the japanese demend to much money then the american companies just won't buy it. Media has nothing to do with it.
And it's not so much the popularity but how publicly and loudly the popularity is screamed. 90% of people doing naruto cosplay at american anime cons SCREAMS out to the japanese that hey, they want it and they want it BAD. So as I said it's your own damn fault. |

Ya thast very true, A lot of people choose characters that are no where near their body type, and it looks wrong (no offense to anyone) _________________ I am God reincarnate.....treat me like it. |
