But I don't think you can draw a parallel between the two. The two situations are different to me. I think Opera is extremely far removed from a tv show or a movie (though it can be argued that there are some anime that can be considered masterpieces, but most are not, just as most Western animations are not). I still think learning a complete different language just to watch a tv show is a bit lame.
And I don't see why there is a big uproar about that. Who cares if people think it's lame? I'm not trying to stop anyone from doing it. I'm not badmouthing them. I just personally find it a bit silly.
On the other hand, being exposed to Japanese through anime and taking an interest in the language as a whole seems perfectly fine to me.
Good luck to anybody who does learn Japanese to watch anime in it's original form! I've nothing against you.
