| As per title, if an anime you watch has a very peculiar frame/scene do you screenshot? If you do, are you a collector of these screenshots? What use do you have for them? Do you use them in thread discussions? Me personally, I do tend to screenshot some funny/weird anime scenes when the need arises. I also enjoy hidden references to other anime/manga so I take screenshots of those also. As for what I use them for, I keep them as a trophy in my MAL profile. |
| I do take screenshots of manga panels |
| yes i do take some screenshots but not often i have 200 screenshots so far |
| Sometimes. Most of my anime screenshots are just for timestamps. |
   |
Plenty. It's just nice to have random things to have as reaction images, even if they'll probably never see the light of day. Though I usually go a step further and make random anime clips into gifs as I'm watching a series, because one day I'll find a thread where one of them is relevant.  Since I don't know when/if I'll use it, here's a City Hunter one.  |

Opinions are opinions, and differing opinions can co-exist. 🙂 But I don't do debate, life's too short to spend time debating people.  |
| I take some SS after the episode ends, mostly with ecchi shots or some stuff I find cool. I keep them on the internet, too big a collection to fill up my HDD |
    |
| Rarely, but I have done it few times, for example the screenshot in this topic: |
This dance is the pinnacle of human achievement. |
| "Do you take screenshots of Anime" I guess I have to say yes. Lol.   |

| I do, either if it's a nice shot or a scene with meme potential. |
| Yup, I sometimes take some to post in the "Screenshot with no context" thread in the Forum Games area. |
on 
| Yes, all the time, I like the pretty backgrounds |
Of course, here one example: Oh wait! This is donghua. |
| From time to time whenever I feel the scene is quite funny or subs just to share with my online buddy and my irl buddy. I remember taking a screen of Frieren when Fern was telling "Alcohol is medicine" to send it to my best friend who's not anime fan, just to tell him that it is time to hit the bars. |
| i screen record too, especially when it's a funny scene. but yeah usually for funny and cute/romantic scenes i do the same with manga panels |
*burps* [font="\"Proxima Nova Regular\", \"Helvetica Neue\", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"] [/font] |
| Yes, all the time. I see it as a way of self-documenting my experience with an anime. I collect funny, interesting, beautiful moments, or a potential reaction images. I also add the timestamp and episode number to the file name. |
 |
| Yeah I usually take some and spam them to my friend on discord |
| Yes, I got Gigabytes worth of screenshots, actually. Here's an example:  Sources: Seitokai no Ichizon Lv2 (Ep 7) Genshiken (Ep 1) Grisaia no Kajitsu (Ep 10) |
| Nah I'm to lazy. I need to get up and do some clicks. I rather press play for the next episode. I did take SS and edited them of some manhwa I red. so I could post them in the comments at appropiate chapters of other manhwa. Eventually I grew tired of that aswell, the endless sauce requests became tedious. Archiving all these SS became tiresome aswell. |
| When will Black Clover release new anime?! It has been 3 years already since March 2021... I don't know who quotes me and then deletes the comment, but know that you make my day. THE HYPE IS REAL!! It's time!! 2 Become a legend, the Ghost of Tsushima |

@alshu That looks like yuri bait, or do they really get "it" on? https://myanimelist.net/anime/58487/Xuwu_Bianjing |

| I do. Sometimes I use the screenshots I take as a wallpaper. |

| Yes, definitely. If I see a sexy scene of any Anime boy I Will take it Love to see shotas, teens, adults and daddies manservice |
 |
| I take screenshots for personal use, just to look at them. Sometimes I just can't stop looking at certain frames. Otherwise I also take them to use as drawing references or edit them for fun. |
   |
Just something I feel like to do with no apparent reason :) |

| Yes I do take screenshots of anime. And upload them onto Deviant Art... |
| I redid the entire imdb page of mars red and akudama drive, so i took a lot of screen shots for those. but otherwise no. |

| I never screenshot anime, but I understand people that do |
Yes i have plenty of screenshots from queen's blade and other ecchi anime. |
Zarutaku said: That looks like yuri bait More like Getting Crap Past the Radar (which happens a lot in donghua) - https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/GettingCrapPastTheRadar since yuri isn't suppose to be a thing in chinese media and in-universe the white hair chick hates the green hair chick...I guess they are getting best friends further in the story. But my point was that from my POV visually more interesting stuff is happening in donghua than in anime. |

| Yeah, If I see a character say something absolutely ridiculous or stupid, I'll take a screenshot. |
 |
| Sometimes if the frame is funny. I then post them on my friends profile |
 Be safe and well travels, Chris |
| Good question for a thread OP. I have taken screenshots of shows, but only for the purpose of creating a pfp, and if the shots look amazing, like the Cat's Eye in between break still frames, hence my current pfp of Rui from Cat's Eye enjoying a drink of wine in her dressing gown. Cat's Eye had a different set of still frames for every episode and they all looked amazing, like still life hand drawn pictures. Simoun had some decent still frames. Also I checked your collection OP and don't think I come across anyone else that has seen Spirit Blade Mountain, Oubu was a brilliant milf type. I've been wanting to catch up on S2 but read some of the reviews saying it isn't very good, what did you think? |
 |
| Sometimes, I take screenshots either of memorable scenes, my favorite characters, or just random scene that caught my eyes. |
 Nanami Hiromachi  Anna Mochizuki  |
| I mean to but I always forget that I can |
No watch list sig cuz "You watch anime in 3 days or 3 months! Such is the proper way!" |
| Yes, sometimes... mosly I save my favorite moments as gifs, got lot of them on my tumblr blog 😆 |

| Never. I watch it on TV - it can probably take screenshots but I'm too lazy to learn that magic for such a little reason. |
| Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. |
| I do, but mostly to get weird out of context clips to troll people with as you can find some weird ass quotes sometimes that just catch people off guard in the funniest ways possible |
This post is brought to you by your local transfem gamer goblin. Will not tolerate bigotry and will fight against "anti-woke" sentiment to make the anime community a safer place.  |
| Not really, and on the rare case that I do it's just to show friends some funny scenes or interesting quotes, but I'll delete it right away after I send/post it. |
  |
| No, pretty much never. Unless I can make a meme out of it or something. |
| Yes. I tend to take screenshots of moments/scenes that I find either cute, memorable, mesmerizing or simply meme-able. |
| Of course I do. I need MATERIAL if i see any hot guy. |
| All weebs creatures of the galaxy, hear this message. Those of you who listen will not be struck by western animation. You will no longer know hunger, nor pain. Your Anime have come to lead you now. Our strength shall serve as a luminous sun toward which all intelligence may blossom. And the impervious shelter beneath which you will prosper. However, for those who refuse our offer and cling to their western animation ways… For you, there will be great wrath. |
| Damn, I do this all the time. I have so many of them in my camera roll. Certain shots are so beautiful or memorable that I just have to take screenshots them |
 |
| I admire people who do when they live-tweet an anime, but I'm too lazy. |
Bum Bum Dum Dum |
| Do you take screenshots of Anime In my mind. Like wtf how mfs screenshotting shit, like hold on let me just PRINT SCREEN THIS FUCKING SCENE AND SEND IT TO MY E GIRL LOL. |
| I am a COMPLETIONIST. Aiming to finish AS MANY ANIME as possible before DEATH, Despite them being SATISFACTORY or if they are BORING. I WATCH THE LOWEST SCORED/RATED/RANKED ANIMES ON MAL (OR you can CALL THEM The WORST animes in the WORLD - No Joke Like Seriously) No anime has actually satisfied my anime taste, That I can call a MasterPiece (10/10), still searching... hopefully one day I will find that show and obsess over it till I die. RULE NO.4 I MUST WATCH ALL CONTENT FOR THE SERIES I HAVE FINISHED, NOW THIS ONE IS QUITE EXHILARATING. |
| Only if a scene or the out of context subtitles are hilarious. |
| I've taken some, but not many. Most of the screenshots I've taken were for database-related work. |
 |
| If there's like a funny line I take screenshots to remember the lines. Most of my screenshots are for manga panels though. |
