Hmm... I have a lot to say. I'm going to answer your question, but let me get a few things on my mind out of the way... please read it all!! First: Let me start 의해 saying that there are different types of anime. Some are for teenagers, some for children, and some for adults. Contrary to popular(misguided) belief, people watch 아니메 for many reasons, not only perverted ones(although some do. Not that it's a bad thing. People can watch whatever they want, for whatever reason they want, 당신 know). Secondly: 아니메 and 만화 are basically the same thing... 아니메 is just what people in 일본 call cartoons. Really. The only difference between 아니메 and western 만화 are where they were made. Some people like to say, "Ohhh, no!! They're different!! Western 만화 and 아니메 are soooo different!!" ...How? 아니메 just seems to have a larger following and is aimed at a bigger audience, but they're essentially the same. (Also, some "Otaku" out there like to bash western 만화 because they think 아니메 is superior. Please do not do that. Would 당신 like it if someone bashed 아니메 because they find western 만화 superior? Most of 당신 probably answered no. Then don't bash western cartoons. If 당신 don't like them, that's fine. But please, do not try and make them out to be super-duper terrible, just because they didn't come from Japan. Many say, "Oh, but Western 만화 are sooo stupid!!" ...listen. I can name a bunch of 아니메 that are really, reaaallyyy stupid, so don't go there. Also, don't pull the, "But 아니메 is soooo much better drawn! The artwork is so much prettier!!!". There are a bunch of 아니메 with terrible animation/artwork. Western cartoonist work really hard to make cartoons- just as hard as 아니메 creators. Don't bash their work just because of where it came from. Of course, this only applies to a select few 아니메 fans.) Third: If 당신 think that 아니메 is a "bad role model" for kids, maybe you're watching 아니메 that's not made for kids, but for a 더 많이 mature audience. Some 아니메 are perverted, some aren't. Some are violent, some aren't. It depends on the genre of the anime(ex; action, romance, comedy...) and the audience it was aimed at(ex; kids, young adults, adults). Very much like... books. Yeah. Some 책 are perverted, and some may present some mature themes and characters that may be considered "bad role models". But that doesn't mean 책 are disgusting and gross, right? Fourth: Now, for an actual answer to your question. People like anime... because they like it. Why do some people like TV? Why do some people like reading? Why do some people like (fill in the blank)? They enjoy it, and that's the only reason they need. Aaaaand that's all.
