As an animation, Bakemonogatari has a simple, clean art style. But the guest illustrations for the series are anything but simple! So, it's great to see that °Tens took on a more complex illustration and made it his own with vector gradients so fine at points it more resembles painting that vectoring. Do have a look at this beautiful wallpaper!

Anime is kinda like a wanting thing and school is like a needing kind of situation. it may seem stupid but...i can't really balance it. anime seems to ruin my learning life but anime is too important to me to let go T.T

Well the obvious answer is school. I can't really justify anime over school. But that does not mean that you can't have your cake and eat it too. You can do both, you know. Learn to balance your life because too much of anything is never a good thing.

School should always take the lead above anime/manga/games/etc. but it can be very hard to keep the balance. It's always so tempting to zone out and watch some anime or play a game but school is important because without a good job you might end up in a cardboard box and I have heard it's hard to get internet in a cardboard box unless your near a good wireless connection...

Obviosly school...too much of anime...I dont think I can take it...isolated in my own room...watching anime 24/7 I'd be paranoid and whenever I'd go out, I'd be paranoid...well anyway...anime is a hobby not a life thing...it wont get you a job or a good education...unless they made a series that taught you everything in school...that'd be pretty weird...but still...school important

Lol just like the other 2 people said, school man, thats the place thats gonns lead the rest of your life, you can always rewatch aniem that came out before, but here's suggestion to try, d/l all the anime you like or want to d/l BUT DON'T WATCH IT, wait til like a holiday, march break, xmas, summer or just a long weekend, and then MASSIVELY watch it, thats what i started doing recently, and i'm wayy behind on a lota my anime but i have em, i'm just waiting for my exams to end then i'm gonna be a cpu couch potato, or virtual potato? lol wtvr works and watch it allll....sweeettt...

Well, school sucks. And anime doesn't. Yay.

However, I do feel as though school should be the priority. School can affect how much anime you can get ahold of in the near future. Dont' be like me and get yourself grounded from the computer. I'm an idiot.

BUT! I am an idiot for anime. ^_^

I'd rather watch anime than go to school...

although that's what i say right now because I have to go to school everyday.
now, if i HAD to watch anime...i'd probably want to go to school...

School is always my choice. Ok, I love anime and manga but school is for my future.

I wouldn't want to end up a bum in the streets.

Thankfully, we live in a place where we don't have to choose between anime or school -- unless your life depended on it. If I had to pick, though, it would definitely be school. I don't know about you, but I value my education and pursuit of knowledge and aspirations more than I do enjoying watching anime series for pure leisure and entertainment... as well as your ocassional emotional breakdown. :P

There's nothing wrong with going with both, is there? Good, because that's what I'm going for. :D

I, like most or all of us on AP, appreciate anime. however, it isn't the need to be educated that balances it out the scale between school and anime, it's because anime is very existent at my school. my friends and myself, *unfortunately*, live out anime in a way that's undescribable. no, we don't do like a daily cosplay or anything, it's just that so many of our life events are weirdly drastic at times, inanely funny, or anything in between. i'd personally give it a shoujo-type, but that's just me. all we need is a freakily-cute monster-mascot, and a catchphrase, and of course, theme music.

however., it's not that i am shoo-ing away school or teh pursuit of knowledge.. in fact, i am quite well educated. how many people can name a high schooler who also takes university? (by the way, i type without caps because i'm lazy. woo.)

for those who can balance out their lives nicely, congrats to you.

Both of them are important!

We need school to prove our knowledge and to learn about everything...We also need school for friends...I cannpt imagine what can I do withput friends....Ummm...but, eventhough school is important and I admit that, sometimes i feel so boring and wants to end the school.....I feel more boring now...I will have national exam this May...Ukh...That means I must study hard....( i hate study so much >.< )

We need anime to make our mind relax...Watching anime really really fun XD XD...Feel lucky that I know anime and become a fan of it.....Anime always cheer my day if I stuck with my school tasks...

Haahhahha...Complicated opinion isn't it? To the point....Eventhough both of them are important....Now I prefer anime more than school^^;...What a lazy person lol
