It still is.
I mean, people who never watched anime at my school think anime is stupid, they speak chinese all the time, hentai is in
ALL anime shows, etc. I mean, at first the principal at my high school didn't like the idea of having an anime club. But when the club first started, anime club had the most members since it first came out in my high school. I can show proof in last years yearbook that there were like 30 kids at one time, and it even looked like it has the most members. But thats a different story.
But still, anime is still popular (heck, in the school library, all of the anime books are by the entrance now = AWSOMENESS), but not like "OMG look!" popular.
