And on top of that most boy pilots have never even had training into operating these fighting robots, yet they always get thrust into piloting them right off the bat into combat.:P

Oh and this is more universal over anime but in a montage scene the person always improves a ton from the beginning to the end of it.

Wow...I didnt think ya'll'd respond so fast!
I just remembered what I wanted to say and now figure that it wasn't as good as I thought it would be, but here goes:
The guy with the well groomed mullet is usually evil (that one dude from G Gundam and the other dude from s-CRY-ed) (at least I think he's evil...I haven't seen it all the way through)

Hmm... I've picked up certain phrases like 'Gumbate' (is that how you spell it?), certain traditions, (like the fact that Japanese people say a certain phrase before going into a home -I forget what though :P ) and things like that. ^_^

That Japanese people like sticky foods. (Yakitate! Japan - well, I could've told you that before, but I wouldn't have had an anime to point to.)

That Japanese people supposedly have less saliva than Europeans/Americans. (Also Yakitate! Japan.)

That sometimes a quick goose is more effective than the most advanced ninja technique. (Naruto; children in general)
The cake used to be a lie like you, but then it took a portal to the deception core.

Thats very true D2000 o.o I've noticed thats happened more than once on that show now x3

Uhm... if you're going to be a bad guy learn not to monologue.

If you're the good guy and the bad guy does start to monologue... well... you usually dont do anything but sit there and listen.

Little kids can be freaking scary. e_e

People dont move out of the way when large objects are being thrown at them, someone else always needs to come in and get hurt instead. o.o;

Animals seem to be able to speak their name. And nothing more. (This is also the case with certain robots as well <.<)

On a more.... sad note....:

I've learned that hours and hours and hours of the most awesome anime or manga can be ruined in less than ten seconds during the end. o_o

On a more.... personal note:

I've learned a great deal about japanese history. Especially the reformation ^^; But other stuff as well. And its got me even more interested. To the point that I'm thinking of being a historian when I get older. o.o;

Yah ... I can't think of anymore. -_-

I learn that, the cuter the person or animal is. They are the most deadly thing on this earth.

In any giving anime, Tokyo Tower will be destroy. But by the time the next anime that comes out, Tokyo Tower will be built again and then destroyed again.

Oh yeah,

If you're the main character's mother, you're pretty much guaranteed a bad time.

Shaving is uneccessary.

But bathing must be done in excess.

Being outnumbered increases your chances of success. --loads of anime
Every year in Uganda, innumerable children simply. . . disappear. These children all stolen under the cover of darkness from their homes and impressed into the guerilla armies of the LRA [Lord's Resistance Army]. In the deserts of Uganda, they are forced to witness the mindless slaughter of other children until they themselves can do nothing but kill. Kill. These children, generally ranging from ages 5-12, are brainwashed into murdering in the name of the resistance and into stealing other children from their beds to suffer the same fate.

Because of this genocide of innocence, hundred and hundreds of children live every night sleeping in public places miles from their homes, because they know that if the do not-- they will disappear. They will become just another number in this genocide to which the international community has chosen to turn a blind eye. They will become, in affect, invisible-- Invisible Children.

But there are those who are trying to fight against this slaughter of Uganda's children. They fight to protect these "invisible children." Please, help them help a country full of children who know nothing by fear. Help save the innocence. For more information concerning how you can help and how you can get an incredible video about this horrific reality, visit the Invisible Children home page.
