Fantasy and control centered defense mechanisms, often perfectionism, they see real people as too flawed and in the way of the meaning of the story. Which is true. I can't become attached to some guy playing a character, but I can be attached and self insert as a character with no basis in reality outside of the minds of those who have seen them.

>People who like animation
Really depends. Has aspects of the above. Anime tells stories that other mediums simply don't, and animation itself has a greater capacity to do so. Some people view it as a loss of depth and nuance, but I'd say it's the inverse. The simplified forms and greater control available with animation draws out and highlights the truth, whereas live action, with a director, a set, a crew, actors who must interpret a script, and so on, obscures the core essence of the plot and characters. If not done well, the deeper meaning is lost.

For example, what scene do you remember from a live action anything? You might remember clothing, a particular shot and angle, a particular environment, but beyond that, probably not much. However, think back to the first episode of Cowboy Bebop, at the end as they're taking off to Mars. You cna remember all of it, down to the looks on their faces. Or the foot stepping forward and coming down in Evangelion. Countless others. It's just more memorable, easier to process and store, more attention to storyboarding and cinematography, more flexibility.

Anyway, I'd say control, fantasy, and diffuse identity oriented.

You float in a million lights, but the one you seek is not there.
You fight in a million fights, but it's yourself you cannot bear.
You think you are a leader, but you turn everyone away.
You think you are a preacher, but you can't turn night into day.

There is something inside of me, and I know that it's growing. The thing that will forever be, and I feel its shadow calling.
It's the fear that drives you mad. It's the fear that makes you blind. It's the fear that keeps you sad. It's the fear that kills your mind.

You think that you make things grow. But in truth, you are like a desert.
You think it's not your ego, and that others make you hurt.
You have learned how to deceive, and yourself is all you can hear.
You think you really believe. But deep down, you are only fear.

There is something inside of me that makes me run up against the wall. The thing my eyes don't want to see, that will obliterate my soul.

Everyone's afraid. But that's no excuse.
Everyone's afraid. But that's no excuse.

They vaccinate.
