A legitimate one: Cheating on your partner can really mess things up and have dire consequences. (well, maybe not as dire as the ones in School Days, but still)

1. Any color ever imagined is a natural hair color.

2. No matter where you are hit or how minor the injury you will bleed out of your mouth.

3. All living things (and some non-living things) contain 50 gallons of blood and every single bit will pour out or shoot out geyser style if you get injured.

4. Nobody's hair is subject to the laws of gravity.

5. The old guy is the most perverted person ever. Or the most powerful. Or both.

6. Not showing your whole face doubles or triples your power.

8. He's your father.

13. You're never too young to fight monsters.

14. If you're a girl, the fewer clothes you wear the better you are at fighting.

15. Or you will be completely annoying and of no use at all, and will probably either get in the way or cry hysterically. Or do both at the same time.

16. No matter how small you are, you can totally lift that weapon.

17. If you're cute enough, bubbles will spontaneously erupt behind you at random moments.

18. If it's undeniably impossible in real life, don't worry, you can totally pull it off.

19. Sleeping heals everything...EVERYTHING. So do bandages around your stomach.

20. Pupils? Psh, who needs em. Most likely if you don't have pupils, you have better power than those who do.

21. The cuter the animal is the more gruesome it will be when it kills you.

22. Travel of any form will either take 3 seconds, or 30 episodes.

23. Staying in one place for more than one season is referred to as 'being on Namek'.

24. One punch will fling you through a wall. And you will stand up, wipe off the dust, and be fine.

32. The girl in the schoolgirl uniform is way more powerful than you.

33. The longer the guy's hair, or the worse his attitude the sexier everyone thinks he is.

34. Every fight will contain a clip of a particularly good hit and will show it at least three times in 12 different angles and at least one close up.

35. You will be asked to do totally random and pointless things for filler while the writers try to catch up.

36. If your boobs wouldn't break your spine in real life then you probably won't last for more than a few episodes.

37. Your outfit will defy gravity.

38. If you stand on or near a cliff, you will have a painful flashback.

39. It’s not face paint, it's a birthmark. Or sleep deprivation.

40. The opening sequence has absolutely nothing to do with the main story, but looks really good anyway.

41. Nobody has body hair unless it's there for a joke.

42. There will be long boring speeches explaining why the good guy is good and why the bad guy is bad and how the bad guy is, better than, or just like the good guy because of these reasons.

43. The bad guy will try to bring the good guy over to his side.

44. The title doesn't have to have anything to do with the story, or even make sense.

50. There will always be a giant version of some animal. And you will either have to ride it, kill it, or protect it.

51. There will be at least one overly muscular stupid guy.

52. If you can't tell if it's a boy or a girl, even after you hear them talk, it's probably a boy.

53. Cross-dressing will be required to get away from a bad guy, and the task will probably fall to either the main character or the biggest ugliest guy on the team.

54. Shadows do not have to make sense.

55. If you're eye is covered by hair, it will take something like a nuclear explosion to move it...or a plot device.

56. Dramatic lighting and single rays of light can turn any moment into a profound and meaningful moment.

57. Breathing under water? Totally possible.

Go ahead and add to the list! what has anime taught YOU?

ps: I don't expect you to read the whole list. It's just an example :P.
Holy cow...the list!
Jazz
anime made me think why am i in this world

on another note
- a person can be older/younger just by changing the hairstyle
- huge vertical lines will appear behind you whenever you're depressed
- the father is always the bad one while the mother is either always oppressed or the good one or just as bad as the father
- parents won't care even if you go on a lifelong journey
- villains accuracy is always below 1% while the protagonist's is always 100%
- a huge bubble from your nose appears when you're sleeping
- people with glasses will look like ( 3 _ 3) when you remove their glasses
- parents are weirder than their children

... there's a lot more but meh too lazy to continue xDD
those
kore ha kinsoku jikou desu
Nanael_old
- Never talk about what you'll do when the upcoming fight is over. You'll die for sure.
- The more enemies attack you, the lower the chance of dying. Opposite works too.
- Never trust emoticon faces: :3
- Anything is stronger than walls, slamming a 12 year old against a wall could break it in a thousand pieces.
- Time jumps, revivals and reset endings are fairly common, totally uncool, and should be banned.
- People with the eyes always closed are insanely strong/wicked upon opening them.

  4. Lucy - Elfen Lied
  5. Misa Amane - Death Note
  6. Motoko Kusanagi - Ghost in the Shell
  7. Re-l Mayer - Ergo Proxy

Ampzz, I agree with you every bit in your statement. There are animes based only on female characters such as K-On! and Yuru Yuri and they were nothing but great!

Oh, on thing however, I just wanted to say the your 5th example made me synchronize with Minty Gums statement :3

Anyways, on the topic of this, I've learnt alot of useless knowledge from anime.

Here's a list of some of the stuff I learnt about from watching anime.
  1. Rayleigh Scattering
  2. Glasgow Coma Scale
  3. Olmec Civilization
  4. Mary Celeste
  5. Angikuni Lake
  6. Wrist Plexus

Can you tell if anime was really the cause though? Tests are always stupid.
Oreiora
Well, I'm pretty sure anime isn't the cause, I'm thinking that seeing as I watch anime all the time in my spare time, I end up doing nothing productive. Of course, the test is something of a joke, but I still feel as if I've been affected by anime (not that I regret it in any way whatsoever).
