Asked just why it is they choose to watch anime, fans yield reasons ranging from sheer fun to simple obsession.
1. Because it’s just fun!
2. It’s not like I just like anime or anything, it’s just one of lots of hobbies I enjoy!
3. To escape reality
4. Because variety programmes and drama are boring
5. Anime is my life
6. Reality is like a game, a crappy one…
7. I’m a seiyuu otaku
8. Habit
9. Stress relief
10. Because I can only love 2D girls

Because i hate social norms
Damn Straight!
Your avatar says otherwise....
I... see what you did there.
I think I figured out why I like anime-related things now.
I hate society and his stupid norms
I love 2D girls especially yuri ones
"10. Because I can only love 2D girls"...
Because I can only love 2D boys...onii-chan types.
glad im not you
you're just mad you're not an onii-chan
yep you got me
They're so cute at that age. :3 *glomps*
because I enjoy it
Because I love cute girls raping my brain!
And thats the nearest we can get to a cute girl, in 2D. Everything else lands you in jail.
It's not rape when you enjoy it.
1-4, 6, 8 and 9 apply to me. Although I like 2D a lot, I am open minded and would swing over to 3D if it's appealing enough.
Where's "I think 2D is better than 3D" anyhow?
Reasons 1-4.
Oh, and also 10.
3 & 9 for me...
3 and 9 too
3. To escape reality
Main reason I watch anime...
4. Because variety programmes and drama are boring
Meh, kind of a reason...
6. Reality is like a game, a crappy one…
Truer words have never been spoken, definitely a reason...
8. Habit
Duh...
9. Stress relief
Yes & no, umm, I say yes...
10. Because I can only love 2D girls
Though I am having a constant decline in regards to maintaining interest in 2D girls recently, the odds are still better then 3D woman so this is definitely still a reason...
1-6 and 8-10
i lawled at 6(TWGOK)
agree 2D girls are the best
1 and 10
Theres no: "11. I like watching fanservice."? I thought that would be a pretty important reason to watch if you dont trouble yourself with plot.
That could fit under one.
Fan service can apply to pretty much anything nowadays... even explosions. Makes me wonder if that's the reason everything explodes in China.
It's always been like that. Ecchi fanservice just gets more attention.
It could also be under "9. Stress relief"
FAP FAP FAP FAP
then it would be #3, 10 and 11 for me
#1: Finally some common sense. We just enjoy watching, wtf, we're not weirdos freaks, we just enjoy the damned shows.
Damn right.
You two.... better not change your avatars.
seriously.. you three have the avatars perfectly in position
I burst out in laughter when i saw you guys. it made my day XD
Definitely agreed. Most... definitely... agreed.
I like that reason.
Don't get me wrong! It's not like I like anime or manga or anything. It just happened to be in my face when I'm looking straight that's all!
Tsundere reason?
WIN
Makise Kurisu reason.
Aria Reason!
They're all lying to themselves! It is and has always been 2d lust!!!! Fun? Pure semantics there!
kugimiya rie... just saying, she's been having a staple over the tsundere (well loli) dept
blow it out yer azz
+1000
Totally agree
You forgot to insert "Baka!" at the end.
Definitely 1,2, and 4 for me.
Even the otaku are tsundere. Go figure.
1-4 8 and 9
#2 tsundere?
#2 for me personally.
Because live action tv shows are never as good.
It depends, last season I loved Game of Thrones but disliked most of the new anime shows.... I have hopes they do something good for the midseason.
Por la puta madre mexicano qliao, tu equipo de futbol es una mierdaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa..... que fue eliminada de la Copa América jajajajajajajajajajaja.......................
