"anime is"

To nitpick even further, "animes" would also be incorrect; the plural of animé is animé. Japanese nouns don't pluralise with "-s" endings.

I'd probably also recommend adding books to the forum description.

Oh geez I hadn't even seen that yet. My inner grammar nazi is screaming. D:

But since this word has been pretty much incorporated into foreign languages, it's okay to use the plural endings like you normally would.
Just like when Japanese use English loanwords, they don't give a damn about using our plural s. Loanwords are bound to be changed a bit depending on the language imo.

it still looks wrong to me. It irks me when people say "ninjas" as well, though not quite as much.

 

[Super Mario]

Nonjas sounds better.


and for the record you grammar nazis...





NEEEEERD!

 

[kunoichi]

*sigh* You don't put an s at the end of ninja/nonja when your describing more than one.

 

[Super Mario]

NERD.

 

[kunoichi]

^That's very constructive criticism you've put thar.

Well anyway, I don't see anyone else complaining about the grammar cause I don't think anyone else noticed, so it's up to someone to change it if they want.

 

[Cthulhu]

I've banned everyone who's complained, anyone else?
