NOTE: I know this is a Blog about gaming, but come on! Anime and Gaming go together like...like...well, you know. 
Let's face it. If your an Anime Fan, there are unwritten rules that you must abide by, whether you like it or not. Well, as of now, I am making these rules written. So, here they are, the Rules of being an Anime Fan:
5. Show some respect!
Okay...not many people like English Dubs of Anime. What people fail to realize is that these companies/voice actors work hard to make an Anime into English. Japanese is a very hard language to translate. That being said, more Anime Fans should show respect to those that do it, even if they didn't do that well in the process.
4. Remember where it comes from!
Anime is from Japan, plain and simple. Some fans will criticize things seen in Anime, because they don't understand Japanese Culture. This usually applies to new fans, but all the same, you should still remember where it comes from. What may be correct in Japan may not necessarily be correct in your country.
3. Watch Akira!
Akira is perfection in the form of a film. Need I say more? You MUST watch this movie if you are a fan of Anime!
2. You are NOT a Super Saiyan!
Dragon Ball Z is popular, and that's a fact. But for crying out loud, don't go around trying to fly or fire Kamehameha Waves! You are NOT of an Alien Race that has powers! You'll only embarrass yourself trying to act as such.
1. Study Osamu Tezuka's life and works!
This is the Number 1 rule of being a fan of Anime!! Osamu Tezuka created Anime, and as such, gave us all a gift that we can truly appreciate. The least you can do is go to Wikipedia and look him up. He loved his job so much that his final words were pleas that he be allowed to work. That being said, study this man's life and works, and never forget where the wonderful world of Anime came from.
Well, that's it. This list was mostly made for fun, and should be treated as such, except for rules 3 and 1, as I am very serious about them. Thanks for reading it! 
EDIT: It seems I won't be going to Magfest. Instead, I'm going to Anime USA! 
I love anime conventions. They're fun, and going to one can be quite the adventure. That being said, I'm going to Anime USA this Autumn!
It takes place in November, and this will be the 3rd time I've attended a Convention. Hopefully, it's a lot better than the last one I went to. Not that the last one was bad, mind you. They just could've had more stuff to do is all.
Anyway, when I get there, I'll be chronicling my adventure here on my Blog, so look forward to that!
