YMMV / The Anime Club

• Spiritual Successor: To "The Eltingville Club" by Evan Dorkin, although it's considerably Lighter and Softer and none of the Anime Club members are half as awful as their Eltingville counterparts.
• Spiritual Antithesis: Could also be seen as this. "The Eltingville Club" is about a group of deeply unpleasant fanboys who constantly antagonize each other and other more well adjusted fans, while the Anime Club is about a group of flawed but fundamentally good people constantly antagonized by their more unpleasant peers.
