Yes, but that's because CA and NY have a larger population and the pop culture there is amazingly huge. More people there are into "Asian stuff" because they have access to it (Little Tokyo, Japan Town, Chinatown, etc.). That's the reason why.

I wouldn't say it's because they have access to it. Northwest Ohio has a couple of good movie stores. Not to mention the world wide web has made anime a growing trend in the states. I would say it's due to the fact that most people where I live think it's for "geeks". The fact that some people don't accept based on public perception makes me angry. Most guys my age are more interested in sports and parties then things that are not wildly popular. Though there are some cool guys like me who can pay attention to both sports and anime (What can I say, I'm gifted)
