I'd like to make a glossary of Japanese terms, such as hentai, used by Western anime fans. Wikipedia uses far too many of these loan words, and I feel it obscures understanding for those who are not immersed in field. Too much jargon is the enemy of understanding. --Ed Poor Talk 08:47, 3 July 2007 (EDT)

"Anime is divided into the same genres as manga, with a heavy emphasis on violence and romance which blends seamlessly into softcore porn (and beyond)."
This, in my opinion, gives the impression that if you look towards anime, you'll always find violence, romance, and porn. Although cetain anime types are just this, anime is much more broad than violence, romance,and porn!
This is like saying:
"Motion pictures have a heavy emphasis on violence and porn (and beyond)."
