I always only watch the intro of the first episode and the ending credits the last episode
>>
Not really anime, but a dinner ritual. I normally don't want to eat dinner unless I have an ep of anime to watch while I eat.
>>
>>139241171
Four years ago I exclusively watched CGDCT anime every Wednesday. I did it religiously for 52 weeks then quit because after that I watched CGDCT everyday.
>>
Well first of all I dress up like a girl.
>>
>>139241528
Can you even watch anime when you don't look like a girl?
>>
I've noticed I tend watch more during the night. Don't nips do the same for airing stuff?

There's also watching old school sci fi Blu Ray rips on a HD CRT whilst it's cold out with some whiskey. Maximum comfy.

I always have to feel clean. Like I have to shit, shave, take a shower, and brush my teeth before I watch any anime.

I just browse /a/ I don't watch anime or read manga.

When I'm watching last episode, I always watch op and ed, even when I don't like them.
>>
Leave the ending playing while I do something else or before starting the next episode
>>
>>139243327
Pretty much same here. I don't watch anything unless I'm clean and somewhat well dressed.

Same. It could be the most Christian approved moment, but it still happens.

I give it a TV content rating.
>>
I only ever watch the intro once, and skip it every other time. Unless it's a good intro, or it changes halfway through the show.
>>
If a series is divisible by 4, I watch it in 4 episode chunks. So I'll watch a 24 episode season in six days. Or a 12/13 episode in 3 days. Anything else gets 5 episodes a day.
>>
>>139241171
I always watch the op and ed of the first episode and ed of the last episode I watch, but unless I really like either I just skip them after that.

>>139242183
partly because of my class schedule I tend to watch more later on in the day, especially after dinner. sucks because that's also when i'm the most productive

>>139243327
i don't do all that but i do prefer being clean when i'm about to start watching anything

to start into a series thats finished it needs to be on a friday or saterday night and i need loads of soda.
>>
>>139246507
If you're able to get a cheap replacement, go for it. Usually, I found a lot CRTs on the pavement when I lived in West London and I've seen a few in LA.
>walking down the street
>some crackhead is breaking the screen of a CRT on the side of the street
Sucks being from the hood sometimes.

Didn't know some of them had HDMI cables, mine is able analogue cables.

A vast majority of the time I watch my anime at night before going off to bed. I brew some chamomile tea, pack a bowl of weed, lean back in my office chair with a bunch of pillows, and relax.
>>
>>139241171
I make food and sit at my desk and talk to friends over the mic as I watch anime.

They all think I'm gay for watching anime
I don't blame them. Or I lay in bed with my note 5/Nexus 6 and watch anime
>>
>>139247121
Sounds comfy as fuck

I used to do that

I'd take a couple mg of Xanax and smoke a bowl

I enjoyed anime the most on acid though.
But I rarely end up doing acid by myself. Only when I have a blotter sitting in my desk and I don't want it to lose potency
>>
I usually start watching at 3 AM when all hope of being productive vanishes.
Then I watch some happy SoL anime and cry myself to sleep.

Watch an action, adventure or generally upbeat or fast-paced anime before going to work.
Watch something comfortable, slow paced or a mellow before going to sleep.
>>
I tend to watch an episode or two before I do my Anki reps every morning.
I also tend to watch more anime during the night.

While not really a ritual, I'll watch the first episode of an anime randomly and not actually pick it up frequently.
>>
>>139246862
Good idea looking for a replacement, that would probably be cheaper than getting this one repaired anyway. Not sure I'd want to get rid of the one I have now, though; between anime and gaming I'm kind of turning into a TV/monitor hoarder.

Really, though, I need to move back out of my parent's house and into a decent-sized apartment without roommates before I start adding to the collection again.
>>
>>139248158
I mean if you wanted to start hoarding, moving out would need to wait. It's really dependent on wear you live too. God bless if you're from NYC.

I have to find best girl right away. Then ship him with the MC that I unconciously self inserted into

>I mean if you wanted to start hoarding, moving out would need to wait.
I'd say the opposite. Once I move out I can start hoarding without feeling guilty about taking up my parents' space.

>It's really dependent on wear you live too. God bless if you're from NYC.
Mid-Michigan, loads of cheap housing around. Not sure of the situation for renting by oneself, though.

I assumed your problem with hoarding was financial.

Detroit? Pretty sure you wouldn't need to rent assuming you have a decent income there. Then again

Think that applies to most of Michigan though. More so around the mid-West areas.

I download a whole season and watch it on my phone while in bed before going to sleep. Helps me concentrate and stops me from pausing and minimizing every second to check out if someone on /a/ replied to my shitty posts.
Been doing it almost every day for the last 5 months. It's great and makes me anticipate going to bed. Can watch up to 12 episodes in a row that way.
>>
>>139249643
Indeed.
>>139249732
They're genki bandages but for the eyes.
>>
>>139249794
I can confirm this is an excellent way to watch anime. Have you thought of upgrading to a tablet? My droid turbo has a 5 inch screen but I feel like having something iPadish sized so would be much better and easier on my eyes
>>
>>139249794
>>139250200
>tablet
m8, monitor on a chair/table next to the bed beats it all

and watching a season in a night is pretty shitty, even if you're a neet
>>
I read manga while drinking, until I'm too drunk to pay attention. Then I throw on whatever shit aired that day, and drink until I fall asleep. Anime is pretty horrible, it's the only way I can get through it.
>>
>>139250200
Yeah it crossed my mind but I don't really need it for anything else so it would be kind of a waste of money. Also holding a tablet in various positions will probably get tiresome after a while.
I have a OnePlus2 and I find the screen just fine.
I used to shows on a fucking iPod 3G with it's tiny ass screen.
>>
>>139250372
>watching a season in a night is pretty shitty

I disagree. It's a time when you kinda go to low power mode and it helps you concentrate more. When it's daylight I feel too energetic and prefer to play vidya or just browse 4chan.
>>
>>139250372
Why is that? Marathoning isn't anything new.
>>
>>139242297
Even when it's not ecchi or hentai? You fap while watching action series and stuff?

I watch anime with Spanish subs so I can learn both Japanese and Spanish at the same time!
>>
I always have to watch at night, for some reason I can't during the day, I'm guessing not comfortable enough and a cup of tea or coffee is always necessary.
>>
>>139241171
always watching while eating or smoking a cigarette

Fuck I kek'd. good on you anon

The first time the title of the show is mentioned in the series, especially in a cheesy way, I have to pause and point at the screen.

If I really enjoy a show I like to have a few drinks as I watch the last 3-4 episodes. Always at night too, it is much better to finish an anime then. What I drink usually charges, but I am partial to quality Japanese beverages. Pic related is my go to sake. If I had more money I would buy good Japanese whiskey but that can get quite expensive.
>>
>>139257594
Vodka and Korn are the only acceptable drinks.
Anything else is pleb tier shit.
>>
>>139241171
I watch the daily quota first, shifting my monitor so that the door is behind. It can start at any time. Next, I watch old series on my phone before going to bed. I even bought a clamp that I can attach to my bed so that I don't have to hold it. It should always start at 10pm and end around 12am, and I can only watch 4 episodes in a day, finishing it in usually 3 days. That way, I'm already in bed at 10 and asleep around 12.
>>
>>139257900
That is so painfully boring.
>>
>>139250983
Yeah, I can't stop touching myself all the time when watching something, it's like my hand moves on his own into my penis.
The same happens when watching a movie.
I'm really glad I don't live with my parents anymore.
>>
>>139259908
What happens when you watch anime with your friends?
>>
I drink a healthy amount of semen before starting any series.

Usually I'll plop on the couch and watch a few episodes, usually with coffee/tea or a beer or six beers. I'll watch on the PC though if I want to shitpost or talk with friends at the same time.

If I'm watching Dragon Ball or something long-running I might dedicate a whole afternoon to a mini-marathon.
>>
>>139261439
Why I would watch anime with my friends? I only watch shitty blockbuster movies with them, but I can contain my lewd urges if I'm with people.
>>
>>139243327
I read manga while taking a shit and watch anime while taking a long bath.
>>
I watch OPs and EDs on the episode they are first used.
>>
>>139243928
Does no one else do this? I guess it's just you and me, buddy.
>>
I always watch anime dubbed.
>>
>>139245194
I tend to watch my anime just before going to bed
>>
>>139249794
I do something like this but I don't download the whole season at once due to having shitty internet. What I'll do is I'll download an episode and while I'm watching that episode I'll have the next episode downloading.
