Are there any strange habits you have while watching anime?
I'll start; whenever there is a suggestive panning of the camera to a female character Ilook away. I don't understand why, if I particularly like the character I feel uncomfortable and instictually just look away.

Congrats, you're a harem MC.
>>134453555
>I look away.
Actual autism. Anime isn't real anon, you can stare at girls without being tense
OP is actually a faggot
>>134453555
I get secondhand embarrassment and tap right repeatedly on the keyboard until the embarassment goes away.
>>134453555
Whenever a character starts speaking some real shit I start hype manning them out loud
I like to make my room pitch black before I watch anime. When I shut off the screen for a moment, I like to look around and not be able to see the hand in front of my face.
When I see your usual self-insert tropes, I start to feel embarrassed, and I suppress it by swearing repeatedly, and loudly if family is not around.
>Jesus fucking god damn it...
>Fucking hell... shit. God damn it...

I got a lot of secondhand embarrassment during watamote. I remember taking like an hour to watch an episode, the anime is much more cringe-worthy than the manga. I usually paused, got up and paced around my room.
>>134453673
Are you black by chance?
When shit gets really tense, I'll stand up and get pumped up. Like, my friends who I watch with get a real kick out of me.
>>134453741
This honestly should be the norm. I was rolling my eyes out of my skull during certain parts of SAO.
>>134453755
No, but I am hispanic for what its worth
>>134453699
That's not that weird, just comfy
whenever there is a suggestive panning of a character's body I make it a point to pause and admire if its a fine piece of work
Just get really excited sometimes and saying exclamations or something.
Also height bothers me, that tree climbing scene in HxH made me very uncomfortable
>>134453926
>height bothers me
I thought i was the only one
>the beam crossing episodes in Kaiji S1
Can't watch something without being as comfy as possible. I don't see how people watch on their laptops or at their desk. It's almost like a checklist: on the big screen, wearing my Sennheiser HD600, have snacks and drink at the ready, pillows and blankets, soft backlight behind the screen, phone nearby so I can speedily shitpost on /a/ etc.
Sometimes I like to eat what the characters eat and shit like that but very rarely.

I'm gonna need some examples because as far as I know, unless you're some culinary genius or live by some place that sells Japanese food, its pretty hard to come by stuff like that
>>134453555
Given the opportunity, I only watch anime in the very early hours of the morning. 3 AM to 6:30 or so. Started doing it because I had adjusted my sleep schedule oddly and needed something to do while I waited for the rest of the world to wake up. Keep doing it because I like it.
>>134453555
Anon dont be concerned but you have actual autism. If you are so beta that you look away from 2d girls then you should probably kill yourself desu.
>>134454224
Hey same here. 1am - 4:30am. I like the utter privacy this time of day, and the >darkness, brings.
>>134454301
Oh fuckoff. You don't know him, or what he's really like, or why. You don't know anything.
>>134454224
>>134454335
I thought this was normal. Everything is best consumed late at night such as listening to music or watching a movie.
>>134454103
Do you live alone? I'd rather watch my anime on a laptop if it meant that nobody would walk in on me.
I like having coffee on hand, but food is a distraction. Too messy, the dishes are a bother.
>>134454442
>food is a distraction
this, I always look down at my plate and miss subs, amd even if its a handheld food id much rather focus and enjoy it rather than get messy with it
>>134454368
OP here, thanks for vouching for me, its just a weird force of habit i've always wondered if anyones experienced
>>134454439
No, I mean I do it first thing in the morning. I like the solitude, and I enjoy it more if I'm not exhausted from staying up too late.
>>134454335
>Wake up
>Check clock
>Fuck yeah, 2:30 AM
>Put on water for tea
>Do I want to bother with the toaster? No, fuck it, I'll eat a bunch of cheese and an orange.
>Grab breakfast and sit down
>Line up an episode of an action series, a comedy series, and a shitty shoujo series
Absolutely wonderful way to start the day.
>>134454012
I actually took like a week break watching that, fuck that one was bad
>>134454368
>Turns his head away from a cartoon
>Being shy towards 2d girls he "likes"
>Not even naked, just "suggestive panning"
And you are implying OP isnt an autistic beta? Ok m8.
I don't watch anything I remotely care about unless everything is perfect.
>100% alone, or at least everyone else asleep
>night time so no interruptions
>no headache at all
>not the least bit tired
>no desire to play games or anything, so no roaming thoughts
>>134453673
I want to watch anime with you, that sounds hilarious.
>>134453555
Whenever I get near the end of a series I really like i wait longer and longer between watching each episode because I don't want it to end. There's some series I just never watched the last 1-2 episodes of.
>>134454732
I do this too to an extent. I usually don't watch anything for a while but when the mood strikes I'll tear through a series in two days.
>>134453673
>>134454829
>Dude! We should totally watch anime together! Have you seen Attack on Titan? That shit ROCKS XD
>>134454594
I don't think you're going to fit in or have fun on this board. You might prefer to talk about anime with the folks on /b/, /r9k/, or maybe even another website.
>>134454732
Sounds like a good approach
I've had a hard time watching anime because I'm so nervewracked about being a useless NEET.
>I can't enjoy my cartoons unless I work to have a house and technology
>I can't enjoy my cartoons under a bridge because it's cold and littered with needles
It's like some cosmic joke
I do like having something to watch during meals, I guess.
Particularly special series or movies usually get saved for late night cooldownafter fapping.
I remove my earphones if things get too cringy.
>>134455069
>It's like some cosmic joke
Holy fuck this. It feels so God damn retarded to have to be so stress free to watch fucking Mongolian cartoons.
>you must be relaxed to use this message chair.
Not a habit, butI read most of Berserk on my TV via PS3 media server. I don't know what I was thinking.
