Do you hide the fact that you watch Anime to your freinds?
| Have you ever told them that you watch anime? Or do you just not care about what they might think about you even after having told them it? Do all of your friends like Anime? Or just some of them? Do you prefer having friends who watch Anime or not? Why do you hide it? Do you find it embarassing? |

| One of the main reasons why I got into anime was because in high school all ten of my friends watched anime. |
  |
| i am not part of the poll... i am not tell anyone, nor showing it to them.. but if they asked me, i would answer it honestly... i don't find any necessery to to hide it, but i don't see any point being blatant about it either... |
 "If taking responsibility for a mistake that cannot be undone means death, it's not that hard to die. At least, not as hard as to live on." |
| Only to those friends who thinks that "Chinese cartoons are only for kids" If they don't like it, no reason for me to try change their opinion about it. |
 |
| The poll option are limited and frankly I have kappa pride regarding watching anime. No in my country knows what anime is and I couldn't care less. I just nod my head when some of my friend say that I am an adult who is watching cartoons. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ |
 I don't know why people write that they are approachable persons, if you were you wouldn't be on MAL. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Extended families or lovers on MAL are a farce. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Take my word, one day I will be as cringey as you think I am, and then we'll see who has the last laugh. |

Xenocrisi said: Iizbakaokay said: The poll option are limited Then tell me some options and I will add them Along the lines of what Kuma said, I don't mind telling them what I watch. I just don't say anything unless questioned. Some of my friends know that I am into anime but most acquaintances don't. |

| All my friends watch anime, just not always the same type I do. Even if they didn't I wouldn't feel the need to hide it since they always talk about their other hobbies that I couldn't care less about. |
| Yeah, they know I watch it, and they watch it too |
 |
| I don't hide it but I don't really talk about it that much cuz most of my friends aren't into anime, I know they aren't interested into the subject so why bring it up. |
 "One must die and one must live. No victory, no defeat. The survivor will carry on the fight. It is our destiny... The one who survives will inherit the title of Boss. And the one who inherits the title of Boss will face an existence of endless battle." |
| "I love Animes, Mangas and VNs. I'm the typical definition of a loser to the majority of you normal people, if you'll make fun of me than do so from now and don't make me lose time, if you think I might be interesting you're welcome" That's more or less how I introduced myself at the beginning of the greatest school year I've ever had, and the first thing I tell my friends is how much of a pervert I can be... they'll never be shocked at knowing I like anime or they would've run sooner! |

That's the most awesome introduction I've ever seen. LOL |
| Why would I hide it? If someone asks me what my hobbies are, I'd mention watching anime as being one of them. I don't go around talking about it all the time, but I certainly wouldn't hide it. I treat anime the same way I treat my other hobbies : if there's a reason for me to bring it up in the conversation, such as another friend talking about anime, someone asking me about anime, asking about my hobbies, etc then I'll mention it. I won't just bring it up out of the blue though, especially for those friends that I know wouldn't have any interest in it. It's like how none of my friends talk about football to me because they know I don't care about it in the slightest. |
 It's an entirely different kind of flying, altogether! It's an entirely different kind of flying. |
| Everyone of my class know my love for Animus... Some friends also like too, however no one is so obsessed as I am. |
| My close friends are actually the ones that introduced and got me into anime. |
| There are only like 2 that know that I watch. |
| My two closest friends know. Only them. I don't tell anyone and nobody even asks. I don't know anyone irl who watches anime too. |
| For me, my friend dont really care if i watch it or not as long as it it not interfere with them. But sometimes, they get interest in some of the shounen animes. |
 |
| I only have a few friends and all of them are aware of what anime is and that i watch it. |
| I see no reason to hide my interests from my friends. If they don't happen to like anime, then that's fine. I'm not going to hide that I watch it just because they don't like it. |
 |
| I don't hide the fact that I watch anime to my friends, nor do I care what they think about it XD I only have two friends that i talk to that also watch it but we watch completely different genres so we rarely talk about it. |
| Some of them know but I've never been to open about it and I probably never will. |
 |
| No, but I hide the fact hat I have no friends though. |

| Pretty much all my friends watch anime to some degree so it isn't an issue. |
| I don't hide it though I'm kind of an on again off again anime fan. |
| No, they already know. Some of them also watch it. |
Please learn about cel animation and its technical process. Learn how special effects and backlighting were done without computers. |
| What friends? I don't hide that I watch it but I've never really been asked... |
| I mean it's not like I go around telling everyone I know that I masturbate to lolis and stuff, but I don't see why you need to hide that you watch anime at least. That's hardly anything even remotely unusual in this generation to begin with |
  |
| Man i remember when I was a weeb. I don't talk about anime much outside unless its some guy i know that watches it. |
   |
| Do you hide from your friends that you like watching TV? Playing sports? Eating food? Idk about you, but I've never done that... |

| A mix between I don't hide it and nobody asks me. My roommates know about my anime binge watching but other than that my other friends don't really know since it's not exactly a conversation starter. |
| Big Order (TV):great anime or greatest anime? |
| No, I'm open about what I like to my friends. |
 |
| My friends like chinese cartoons too, so I have no reason to hide it. And even if they didn't watch it aswell, I still wouldn't hide it. |
 |
implying I have any friends Even if I did, I would still keep it a secret because I prefer watching anime at night time with no distractions. |
| One of my friends also likes Chinese cartoons. The others think I exclusively watch Hentai. So no. I don't. |
  |
| They're my friends lol. If you have to hide something innocent like anime from them, they aint your friends. Although it sucks when an asian guy walks by and they look at me as if expecting something grand to happen. |
 |
| akthough my family doesnt know my whole class knows i like anime i dont mind lol. why need to hid what you liek to do |
 |
| I used to do it in high school, not going to lie. Nowadays I don't care about it. However, I'm not the kind of person who keeps shouting "WOO I LOVE ANIME DUDE!!!!". If they ask about it, I'd tell them. |
 Ｓｗｅｅｔ♥I guess, as long as I have life, all I can do is fight with all my might. |
| I don't shout that I watch anime, but I don't hide it either. A quarter of my friends also watch regularly, if you count those who watch thing such as SAO and OPman, maybe half. |
| I don't go all out in saying that I'm watching anime to everyone I meet. I usually answer what I'm watching with anime and if they're genuinely interested in what show I am watching, I go into some depth about it just like how they go on about their shows. I'm usually the only one who does watch anime when I make friends, though. |
 |
| im really glad to see the 2nd and last options are the most voted but yea, im never the one who brings it up unless there's an opportunity, im not just going to mention anime for no reason lol |
