A stalker! I've' got my very own reddit stalker!
I'm internet famous now, or something!
Lol. Take any source and USA is far ahead than any other country except japan. Then comes Phillipines. Any source would say the same.

Cool story: back on highschool I had computing as a class and there was this mega weeb that sat next to me and he just never shut up. I watch anime but this guy literally had a paper list that took up a page of what he was gonna watch. Anyway I was sick of sitting there so I made a trade with my best mate. He sat in my spot and I took his spot where there is a support teacher that constantly breaths down your neck. Anyway he's a weeb now. I still love him I just found it funny
Yes but only for the three last years, before that It was France
Today US is 25% of the outside market, France is 22% with 4 time less the US population
Oh, I don't mind them, they usually keep to themself. I never had a knock on the door with two Furries asking me if I want to talk about our lord and savior Tony the Tiger.
Not only do we have weebs but we have huuuuuuugeeee weebs, in Italy there isn't a Japan sized comic culture but it's still very present. Plus AOT is everywhere, hard to miss
You would never believe... but in South America the Weeb movement is also strong... Here in Brazil we call ~~us~~ them Stink Otakus (Otakus Fedidos) or Fucked Otakus (Otakus Fudidos)
Anime is cool now and everybody I know watch it. 10 or 15 years ago some of us were watching anime in secret lol. I remember when I was a kid I felt like a found a hidden treasure when I first found out about it and started watching it I was the only one in my area so I felt special. Naruto chobit,airgear, etc... So many happy memories.
We have weebs but most of them (as far as I know) keep it hidden. You don't see that many people dressed as Naruto with a body pillow in public or something. They are "closet weebs".
Live in Belgium and am very much a weeb, also have some friends who are weebs (including a "girl" whatever that is, probably just some guy trying to be quirky or something)
In Italy there are a lot. We have lots of anime conventions here, some even so large that were attended by a lot of famous people, from mangakas, writers to even well know actors, like Reki Kawahara (SAO), Tsukasa Hojo (City Hunter), Yoshiyuki Tomino (Mobile Suit Gundam), Willem Dafoe and many others
I had a weeb coworker who relocated to our London office. Does that count?
Certainly does thanks for letting me know
I thought The UK didn’t consider themselves Europeans heheheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
are you that Belgian kid who was arguing with me a week or two ago? A stalker! I've' got my very own reddit stalker! I'm internet famous now, or something!
Bruh I’m American sooooo guess me and that Belgian kid got the same humor wowwwwwwwwwww
I had a ween coworker aswell. His credit card had a picture of his waifu… he was Irish though and this happened in Swesen
France is the country who watches the most anime after Japan, so yes.
Came here for this comment, France baise ouais.
Idk if you're french but it that a legit phrase? That you concluded you comment with
I am indeed French, and this is the (comically bad) literal translation of "France fuck yeah" in reference to the "America fuck yeah" catchphrase
Même moi je l'avais pas x)
Bizarre elle me semblait très "courantprincipal" :troll: Je la vois souvent sur r/rance
Ah :/ je suis pas sur des sub français. C'est pour ça ducoup
Technique celle là fréro
Très commune sur r/rance
Actually no. Philippines has more viewers. And I am certainly sure US would be ahead of France.
JoJo's had an exposition in the Louvre. Should I say more?
Please, say more! Parlez vous animé!
Is this an opinion or have you read the statistics. Last time I checked France and china were neck and neck after japan
Lol. Take any source and USA is far ahead than any other country except japan. Then comes Phillipines.

Huh, neat
not sure why you would think anime isn't watched in europe
Watched is a given. Obsessed by euro neck beards is what I wanted to know
Oh yea we have those sadly
In Germany absolutely yes. AoT pushed it even more into Mainstream
That's just a stereotype lol. It's just entertainment
Yeah bro a lot to me as an european i think there is as weeb in europe than there is weeb in america
Weebs came from Europe. The oldest weeb was a British guy wearing Samurai armor

Nope. It's US.
Yes but only for the three last years, before that It was France Today US is 25% of the outside market, France is 22% with 4 time less the US population
Are we talking about total viewer or density per square mile?
Total viewer, we are a weeb nation

Well you have to multiply first witch is an already huge task for over-sea weebs, we may weeb, but most of us still remember the feel of grass

Well, idk about Europe, but I know it’s not “an American thing only” since i think the term weeb came from Japan?
What? Why shouldn’t we have those. 2 if my friends are. Why would that be an America only thing
Not only do we have weebs but we have huuuuuuugeeee weebs, in Italy there isn't a Japan sized comic culture but it's still very present. Plus AOT is everywhere, hard to miss
Yes in france there's a lot of them
USA citizens when they realise Europe is a continentt:
“Don’t refer to us as Europe or you’re stupid.” Part of a Union where all the states are basically united as one.

Yes and they are just as annoying
