I mean I know I'm a fucking weeb. Is it my use of the word "paradigm" that made people so mad? My intention was not to do a "before it was cool." I simply wanted to explain my own experiences getting into anime and explain why someone might be more inclined to to use the Japanese names for anime shows: because that's what they got used to back in the day and it stuck.

You call it "backtracking," but I'm just trying to clarify what exactly I was referring to with my comment because many people clearly don't seem to agree with some parts of it.
