I saw on CNN some guy from TV Guide talking about anime Yugi oh (sp) in 
particular but then anime in general.
He basically said in general terms that anime is a fad that will pass.
But then went on to say specifically that anime was a boys phenomenon, and 
when directly asked about girls he said that very few to almost no girls 
were interested in anime, and then likened girl who like anime to boys who 
liked my little pony. 

Makes you wonder where he's been getting his info.
