I really have to agree. That's why anime cosplayers look ugly, at least IMO.
I don't know what you think about Power Rangers and Kamen Riders, but me and my best friend call it the PLASTIC SHOW, and we just watch it so we can make fun of it and laugh at it.
I also watched the Pokémon Apoclypse thing and it disturbed me...really. Ash looks "...." and WHO THE HECK IS THE BALD GUY?!?!? It doesn't really seem like Pokémon and all the bright colours and feeling on anime is gone, though B/W overloads the bright colours and lessens the feeling of anime.
Anime just isn't designed to be real.
