Has any anime ever changed you, or the way you think?
Yeah:
"Ghost in the Shell" (1995)
"Neon Genesi Evangelion"+"End of Evangelion"
"Serial Experiments Lain"
"Texhnolyze"
"Angel's Egg"
"Paranoia Agent"
all affected me immensely and made me think about a lot of things.
Anime made me gay.
Texhnolyze
>>141121260
Anime made me trans
>>141120829
Pretty much a pleb when it comes to anime, but those top three are among my favorites that I've seen. I just finished watchingSteins;Gateand am in the mood for another thought-provoking roller coaster ride, so will check out the last three you listed.
>>141120761
I hope you do not imply Psycho-pass changed you or made you see nivarna. Anyway, Ping Pong the animation.
>>141120829
I see you have the fedora-core completed
>>141121391
>I hope you do not imply Psycho-pass changed you or made you see nivarna.
Something about Makishima's worldview really affected me. Do I really follow my will? Do I even have one? He really resonatedas a christ-figure, his willingness to die so as to impart understanding and change in Kogami/the world seems so admirable...I don't think I have ever believed in anything by comparison.
It was definitely the most intellectual animu I've encountered.
>>141121260
I'd go gay for Shogo in a heartbeat.
Ippo and other sports anime inspired me to get /fit/. Besides that not really any specific anime, but I'd say anime as a whole changed me a bit
>>141120761
Not really. I don't think any piece of art has done that. It might have influenced my views on the medium, art or my aesthetic preferences specifically but not on anything more fundamental than that.
No, that'd be ridiculous.
This fucking thread.
>>141124414
This board is 18+
>>141124616
>I read Catcher in the Rye and it was like, soooo deep, it really spoke to me
And that'd STILL be more impressive and mature than any post in this thread.
>>141120761
I once quoted my waifu in a speech. Take that as you will.
>>141124663
Some anime aren't just edgy to please your childish desires for enjoyment.
>>141124818
I'm guessing you're the cringeworthy retard who was referencing Psycho Pass in this thread.
The only appropriate response to that isLMOA
>>141124861
>LMOA
At least you tried.
And no, I'm not. Psycho Pass is shit.
>>141125060
>at least you tried
Newfags, not even once.
>>141120761
Yes
>>141120761
Yes
Boku no Pico
Initial D made me love cars and think about them in a completely different way, so i guess yeah.

Came out just as i was finishing highschool and it helped me try and stay on track and not flake out of life.
Not really, no.
>>141125660
What does it have to do with being you being gay though?
>>141125921
Admittedly my lazy typing had me walk into that.
> "Welcome to the NHK" came out just as i was finishing highschool and it helped me try and stay on track and not flake out of life.
There
>>141121260
It's not gay if she has a feminine penis and you just fuck her in her asspussy.
>>141120761
Madoka and Muramasa, it's not /a/ though.yet
I feel that Jojo's Bizarre Adventure changed me for the better. At first it was only slight changes, such as styling my hair differently and expressing what I say with more exaggerated emotion, however, as time went on I began acting even more differently my fashion choices changed and I began wearing more colourful and elaborate clothing which made me stand out from the norm. I became more muscular and my cheekbones became more defined. I began to wear lipstick and eyeliner. I began to pose more frequently, especially in scenarios which didn't call for it.
People questioned me on why I was acting differently but I'd just respond with 'Yare yare daze'. They didn't understand. How could they understand? Before I knew it, I'd become one with Araki's masterpiece. I changed my first and last names to begin with 'Jo' and I am currently working on learning the ways of hamon and summoning my stand.
>>141120761
Eva and NHK made me accept reality and that I'm a loser.
Life sucks and I will never be happy but that's fine.
>>141121516
Kill yourself.
Quoting famous novels and asking dumb questions doesn't make a show intellectual.
>>141120761
As a teenager, "yotsubaki milk tea" changed a lot of things in my sexualité (not gay)
Then "paranoïa agent" helped me going through my first severe post break up depression and becoming more motivated about what I'm doing.
Anime made me hate cowtits and likingmiddle school girls.
>>141120761
I only watch anime for entertainment only, I'm not autistic enough to apply its edgy values in real life.
>>141120761
Wolf's rain
>>141120761
No. Although it certainty affected how I prefer to spend my free time.
>>141125660
Came here to post this. Made me contemplate my life decisions and how to overcome social fear.
>>141126129
This guy gets it
>>141126445
I know this is a joke, but I'm pretty sure someone has actually done this
>>141120761
Miyazaki films were a greater influence on my worldview than anything else as I grew up.
>>141128525
Humanity is lost.
Grisaia made me think about my breakfast habits. It used to be a struggle every morning. Now I have corn flakes and milk every morning. It has really made a difference.
>>141120761
Aria reminded me that I need to relax more and made me see life in a brighter way.
Also this may sound weird but B Gata H Key changed my mind about sex, made me think that it's actually a normal thing and took me off /r9k/, I have to say that it really helped and it's still helping me in my social recovery
>>141129165
>>141126911
>these people exist
it's actually disgusting how many people ive spoken to about PP thought it was just another action anime
>>141120761
I watched Elven Lied after some suggestions. I stopped fapping since that.
>>141132104
That's because it is.
Urobuchi is a bad writer.
>>141120761
'Ping Pong' made me feel sad as fuck because a hero will never come and save me like Peco saved Kazama and Smile.
>>141120761
Stand Alone Complex
Chobits
Made me overcome the terminator view of machines and I guess I changed side on the issue if machines have a soul
KissXsis
It's these that slightly wear down your moral restrictions.
Urotsukidoji
La Blue Girl
Changed how I look at japanese culture
>>141124663
I did check the references mentioned and downloaded them as ebooks but haven't read them yet.
Catcher in the Rye
The Laughing Man
>>141132251
It's ok if you don't get it anon, but that doesn't mean you have to undermine the work. Look at this retard for example..
.>>141129165
>Makishima was literally just another villain,
Literally the entire premise of the show is morality... Makishima's lack of a Psycho Pass, the fact that his intentions are noble, the fact that the 'law' uses the same methods he does, his conception of personal integrity...all of these things are meant to explore right and wrong, they offer meaningful foils that allow the viewer to question the very nature of ethics by offering up Kogami and Makishima as this dystopian dichotomy (even their appearances are inverted, their key dialogue is mirrored throughout the show). In any sensible person it would evoke some introspection, or at least an appreciation for the craftsmanship involved. But no, he kills people, he's a bad guy, hurr durrr.
>>141132104
Most people I've discussed it with didn't even realize Shogo was a Christ-figure, despite them putting that fucking parable of the sower just before his death. You can't expect weeaboo faggots to understand anything but the extremely obvious, and fan service.

I was going to say NHK...but if anything I think it made me worse.
>>141132812
dude weed lmao
Sora no Woto made me existentialist.
I've watched so much SoL it's become my dream to visit Japan countryside and the highschool building
>>141133561
This, I actually want to go for myself and see if the real thing is as comfy as anime shows it to be.
>>141133561
>>141133634
I thought the same way but I seen the NNB comparisons and fucking choked on my water.
>>141133680
Well that's not true for me, I've seen plenty of real life-amime comparison photos and I think it looks just as good in its own way
>>141133680
got a pic of the comparisons, senpai?
>>141133071
No need for negro grass
>>141125660
This, except Welcome to the NHK made me realize that I'm not a loser at all because I actually have prospects and work hard rather than just giving up on life and leeching. Even now when I have a drinking problem and might have to take a year off of uni to save for the ever rising tuition costs, I actually have stuff going for me.
>>141133561
>>141133634
Prepare for bitter disappointment.
>>141120761
I've always loved cartoons and literature. I thought I'd died and gone to heaven when I found out that there's a huge country full of people who read comics and like seeing them animated.
Haruhi and, manga-wise, To Love Ru changed my life more than anything else.
>>141134599
Which country could you be referring to?
>>141134764
The one that produces the largest amount of animation in the world.
>>141134838
France?
>>141134897
No probably the US
>>141134937
That's a good bet as well, both make a lot.
Kaiji taught me that people without initiative will end up getting dragged through life and most likely end up somewhere they had no wish to get.
Don't get me wrong, I'm still a loser, but I live up to it now.
The Aria manga taught me how to be happier through mindset.
Also, but through negative example, Aria also influenced the way I prioritized things in my life. I focus more strongly on structuring my life such that I avoid doing anything I don't enjoy doing.
Why would you break the egg if you are asked nicely not to?
Yes, I'm fucking my sister now.
>>141120761
I know it's idealistic but reading FSN made me realize what I want to do.
Be an ALLY OF JUSTICE.
Broke my dank addiction of 6 years and going to join the Navy then go into politics to try my best in changing the world anyway I can. Though I need to make sure I got the $ so jews don't try to buy me out.
>>141120761
Nichibros.
Because I never had a highschool life as fun as theirs.

Before I thought about breasts being the best part, then this sage made me appreciate the booty as well.
>>141120761
Euraka Seven made me get out of a deep depression. So that's that.
>>141139720
Bet AO pulled you back in.
>>141137051
>Navy
Don't do it fag. Trust me, I'm a sailor.
And today I had a conversation about if the rat fucker from madoka was actually evil or not and what I would wish for to become a cute magical shota.
>>141140099
What you do m8? I got a cousin in as a ET and I wanna try to go corpsman or something.
And we all wanna be cute magical shotas or lolis squid.
>>141132330
Think about it anon, what if YOU are the hero?
>>141120761
Haruhi made me wanna try and be more active and try things out. Not necessarily find aliens, but I did get more friends once I stopped avoiding people.
>>141120761
>Has any anime ever changed you
Yes, my penis from flaccid to erect state.
>>141140756
Fuck this anime made me shed too many tears.
We can all be heroes for someone anon.
>>141140736
Your cousin is the less cool, less kill people version of me. And you probably don't want to be a corpsman.
Actually you don't want to be an anything really. Navy fucking blows most of the time.
>>141140869
How can I know till I try anon?
Also WESTPAC to fuck bitches and help during tsunamis.
Also free college out of it.
Watched pic related when I was at a crossroads in my life especially related to college. I had very similar feelings to the protagonist about wanting to restart my life and go through life differently.
The show made me feel a lot less depressed about life and I'm going to nursing school this fall in part because of it.
>>141132251
here is that (you) anon
>>141140902
That's your ideal situation. Your reality is closer to tiny ship in shit part of the world or country. And there's almost no winning for homeports.
Think of the Navy as a really average girl. And think of yourself as somebody who can do better. But shes into pegging and you kind of want to try it, and in return, you get to do whatever you want to her.
The Navy is going to fuck you. Fuck you long and fuck you hard. It's just up to you to fuck it back when given the chance.
>>141132330
Peco "saved" them by releasing them from their shackles. He basically crushed their dreams that were inserted by other people.
All you have to do is be honest with yourself about your goals and aspirations in life.
>>141124663
with this logic, if Catcher in the Rye were to have an anime adaption, then it would automatically make the book shit.
>>141141195
pretty much sum up /tv/ and /lit/ mentality.
I'm not sure anything ever changed philosophically, but I really love corny fuck POWER OF FRIENDSHIP/LOVE and stuff about driving forward to always improve and to not mope around.
Any time I'm feeling down, a good episode or two of corny hot blooded anime/tearjerker positivity will get me back on my feet.
Shit like this:

Gurren Lagann. I know, how trite. Watched it while it was airing in college and it helped me realize what it meant to be a man. Seriously, I lost my virginity around episode 13.
Whenever some serious life crises arises I always think of Kamina.
>>141134575
Why?
I lurk those /jp/ japan threads pretty often and I'm liking what I see there
Well, anime in general has made me attracted to prepubescednt girls, as well as giving me a plethora of other fucked up fetishes.
