Most of the times, yes. Though it really depends on the anime i'm watching. Although some can make an anime sound more interesting and watchable.

IF THEY TELL ME THE ENDING OR SOMETHING IMPORTANT I'D BE HELLA PISSED. But I do it to myself sometimes by accident when I read a spoiler of an anime and just rage, or read one of an anime I haven't seen yet I just think to myself 'Welp! I can't watch THAT anime anymore!'.

If someone spoiled an anime, I'd still watch it. but I probably wouldn't be as into it as I would if the end wasn't spoiled.

It depends on the anime for me. If I read the manga already and know what's going to happen then fine. But if someone spoiled it for me then I am upset but I get over it.

The only reason I watched Naruto was because my friend told me what happened every week for a year.... and then i finally decided it sounded cool enough to watch. Same with many other animes (The main stream ones anyway) For me, it is like romeo and juliet, telling me what happens makes me want to know how it came to be even more. I want to see it for myself. I enjoy the shows from a different perspective when I know what will happen.

no, i don't flip shit when someone spoils an anime for me.

what's worse is when people mark comments that are about the episode as spoilers in the episode's comment section. now that, i do flip shit on

It's been getting bothersome lately in episode discussions. Manga readers pass indirect spoilers such as "don't worry, it gets much better later when Edgyfagwithgrimpenis appears" or say "dude trust me by episode 8 you will be pissing your pants if it follows the manga!"

It really depends on the series. If i really like the series so far and they spoil it ill be pree upset. But if it was something like "It gets better, wait till ______blah blah blah" If its vague enough it doesnt matter to me, sometimes it even gets my excited to continue watching. BUt if they straight up said "Yeah he gets his new powers blah blah blah its crazy strong blah blah everyone dies" ill be pissed.

I don't care. This happened to me several times already and I still keep watching a series even though I am heavily spoiled. Just because you got spoiled doesn't mean you'll stop watching a series. That's something to do about hype, you acknowledge a series for being good or bad not because of what will happen but because you saw how it happened.

Spoiling is when somebody tells you about an important event in the story of media, be it video games, movies, TV shows or anime.

Yes I do care if somebody spoils an anime for me cause then that scene might cause less of an 'impact'.

Getting spoiled is shitty business man, especially when it's a show I really care about.

Sometimes though, it's because I've spoiled myself that I even start watching/reading a series. I only ever finished SnK because I spoiled myself and read what happens later in the series. Same with One Piece and Naruto (the latter I just barely started reading). Once I knew the developments that were going to occur, I was intrigued as to how the series were going to get there, and this motivated me to try them out.

It depends on the anime and how into it I am. Most of the time I don't really care for spoilers, in fact usually I search up some info ahead of the time in the story. I like having a bit more background info to look out for, especially so I don't get those confused moments.


However, with on going anime specifically, it irritates me to some extent when someone will carelessly give you spoilers if they're some episodes ahead or have/are reading the manga. Like, at least be respectful enough to ask.

No not really. I care less of spoilers, it just makes me want to watch it more. I even spoil myself by reading the wiki pages or discussion threads.

I dislike spoilers because like the name suggest they spoil my experience with the anime. There are some wonderful experiences I have had with certain anime that would never have happened if it had been spoiled.

however I will still watch the anime regardless
But that's just one opinion.

I'd like to kill the people who spoiled the show for me.
It's like when I knew something would happen, it's as like that I'm watching the whole series just to wait that 'something'.

I honestly couldn't care less if I'm not watching the show at the moment
But if I am...

Spoiler that contains something I'd really like - I'd be happy and rush the though the show to get to that point

Spoiler that contains something I'd hate - I might get pissed and potentially want to rage quit the show (possibly temporarily)

Other spoilers I don't really care if I hear

If someone spoils minor details I don't really care, but important stuff, plottwists, really epic stuff or the end, yes, I do get pissed. I might however still watch the series.

Of course, I'd feel somewhat disappointed but that wouldn't altogether deter me from watching said anime especially if it's really good. Seeing the story unfold in my own eyes is equally important, in my opinion.

Nothing worse than a spoiler about a character dying. One of my favorite anime was spoiled by some dipshit who wanted to ask the world "why did _____ have to die at the end??" It def took away from the shock since i was expecting it.

It bothers me but not enough to keep me from watching the show. If something can be "spoiled" then that means it has an a somewhat unpredictable story and deserves a watch either way.
