I baited queen there haha

Things anime has:
- Comedic characters with verbal tics
- hammy acting
- different regional accents used for comedic effect
- bordering on homophobic/sexist comedy
- insane slapstick
- exaggerated emotions
- unbelievably choreographed scenarios
- lots and lots of action

Things bollywood has:
- all of the above plus musical numbers

Fanservice is good as long as it's consensual in-universe

bollywood is super firetrucking anime sometimes

Musical numbers is the biggest reason I don't like it

I forgot to add gratuitous fanservice to the list

It's soooooo cheesy

the musical numbers especially are very anime

I have to be honest, your experience with bollywood seems like a firmly 90/00s experience which ass when they were at their cheesiest

They are

Watch ONE film for me

yeah i didn't watch much of the 2000s

Just one

I was talking to Otti but I guess it applies to the both of you

a lot of the songs in the 90s ones at least feel like firetrucking AMVs

with these really bad cuts

I have watched plenty with my sister

?

Noooooo I cant believe you still dislike them

I recommend the anime Mononokean Fukigen! It's really good! The manga is

very weeb name

Aren't all names weeb in their own culture

Or The Morose Mononokean for English
