My friends went: "It's just Japanese Power Rangers. What's the point?"
So I gave up (However, I then proceeded to troll them by calling all their Anime suggestions "Dragon Ball Z with swords/ninjas/whatever").

Show them this pic. That changed my friends mind

I honestly don't care. If you don't like I like something that's your hang-up.

it's a tie between "Keep missing out on AmiAmi preorders" and "Staying up to wee hours just to secure a preorder".

People trying to stump you on really basic things. If I had a nickel for every time that someone tells me that the original Black and Yellow Rangers were Black and Asian, for instance, I would have enough money to buy the Figuarts and Ultra-Acts I am currently wanting.

Another example: "Hey did you know that they made a bunch of Godzilla movies in Japan that they did not release over here?" I'm wearing a Godzilla shirt with Japanese on it, do you think that I DON'T know that?

shipping cost and the wait...
but the toys is one of the reason why I'm willing to spend a rack on plane ticket to go to Hong Kong and sometimes Japan

*facepalm* I'm glad I never come across that. No one ever tries to challenge my knowledge of things because people know me well enough to know that I know more than they do about stuff like that.

In the same vein, people who quote false "facts" at me. The most common one is the long disproven urban legend about "King Kong wins in America but Godzilla wins in Japan." I am STILL hearing that myth claimed as fact and then folks look at me like I'm King Ghidorah when I correct them.
