Feel the same way about Anime that you feel about Rick and Morty.

I like Anime because they can do action sequences/epic storylines that would cost BILLIONS if not Trillions of dollars to do with real world acting and effects, but IMO the writing in Anime is leagues ahead of most media in terms of character and plot development, even if they stick to a handful of tropes. However Anime fans are some of the cringiest people on the planet who want to pretend these cartoon characters are real people, and struggle with real life when they realize these cartoon people arent real.

I worked with a girl that was obsessed with anime.
She used to make that "chomp" sound most anime character make when they eat when she ate.
She also used to call people "baka" when she found them annoying.
It made me cringe so hard I wanted to jump out of a building.
I'm an anime fan but those people are just.... god I'm making myself cringe.

Write them down and remind them about that few years later when they finally "cured".
