I've rewatched the begining of certain series, just remember myself why I loved it so much. Then never get around to finishing, because I nothings new and I never cry twice on the same part, or get surprised in plot twists.

The entire thing? Not really. But I might go back and watch certain episodes every now and then.

A few series, baccano!, DN and code:geass.
Although, I think i'll be rewatching series like strike witches and yuru yuri many times(no plotline to worry about, makes rewatching easier and more enjoyable).

Yes I rewatch anime titles plenty of times. It doesn't have to be a series I favored. A lot of times, it's usually because it's on Netflix and I've already seen it but having nothing else to watch, I rewatch it.

ahh! someone told me before that your time spent on rewatching finished anime could be spend on new anime. that's why i'm hesitating.

Honestly yes, only some though, I have this thing where i can never find anime that i truly love and usually if the anime isnt all that great or exactly what i want i put it off and watch something else. But since i cant ever find anything I usually just rewatch anime, in this past week I've rewatched Skip Beat, Saki, One Piece (Dubbed version), Chrome Shelled Regios, Fruits Basket, Shugo Chara, Prince of tennis (Dubbed Version), Eye Shield 21, Hikaru no Go and i think thats it. Im trying to find anime similar. Of course I dont watch the whole thing because Ive already seen it I usually skip the boring story plots and flash backs and get to the fighting scenes/ tournaments to amaze myself with ultimate coolness. xDD Simply out of boredom though. If I wasnt so picky in anime I'd probably not watch any anime over.

All of my 10s are rewatched. The thing about rewatching my 10s is that I know I'm not wasting my time. It might not be the case with an unknown anime.

You may rewatch an anime only if you enjoyed it immensely. Otherwise...question your sanity.

Pretty much this, but i usually watch new series over them, unless I'm really wanted to watch my favorite shows.

I only rewatch something that I've really really enjoyed. And I still won't watch the whole thing. I'll just go back to certain episodes that I liked. I've only rewatched Code Geass, Death Note, Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood, Clannad, and Mobile Suit Gundam. That's about it. XD I mainly like to watch new anime rather than ones I've already watched, so I rarely rewatch something.

I usually go to the other medium on the first 'rewatch'. For example, instead of rewatching FMA: Brotherhood anime again, I read the manga. Vice versa.

I rarely rewatch stuff, and when I do, it's something great I watched a long time ago, or something really good I watched as ongoing (which happened like only once).

Only those that have/are either:
Really good
Don't have a mega twist in the end, preventing you to re watch it (like Shyamalyan's movies)
Are not too long to sit through again
Have some complicated mysteries not fully resolved

Or all of the above.

This.
Or shows I partially don't understand.

I've rewatched TokiKake, Durarara!!, Madoka, Bakemonogatari, Nisemonogatari, Shoushitsu, Toradora!, Special A, Suzumyia Haruhi no Yuutsu, and Angel Beats!. Currently rewatching Steins;Gate. Plan to rewatch F/Z, Gintama, K-On!, and many more.
Rewatching makes you notice details that you didn't notice before, and get the story better than ever.

I rewatch a bunch of stuff with my friends. Sometimes even within a week of finishing it, because i'll tell them how good something is then we'll watch it. I've also watched DBZ fully through every summer for the past 3 years.

I rewatch a lot of anime.Chances are if my MAL list has not updated in a while then it is because I am rewatching a anime. If I really really loved an anime I will rewatch more than a couple of times. If I only seen a anime subbed and I really like that anime and dubbed anime comes out then I will watch the dub,unless of course that dub is incomplete like Tenshi ni Narumon! or Zero no Tsukaima.

Occasionally, I'll intentionally re-watch a good show, but more often I may randomly open a single episode to look for a specific scene, and end up watching the whole thing because it's just too good.

If I own it, I've probably watched it at least twice - either I saw it once before and at least once after I acquired it, or (for older ones) watched once when I got it and once more after I learned to take screenshots.
Some of those also wound up getting additional screenings either because I liked them and went back or had someone else who wanted to watch them.

As for things that I saw through broadcast, DL, streaming, or rental, there are some movies and OVAs back from the '90s that I rented or watched on TV more than once, but anything else was seen only once in its entirety. This includes broadcast TV series, which I usually missed a few episodes here and there so never actually saw the whole thing twice.

Yes. Some shows I've seen at least 5 times (Pani Poni Dash and Azumanga Daioh, for example), and they never get old.

Comedies are usually very easy for me to rewatch, but I'll rewatch anything I liked during tis initial run (or whenever I first watched it). For example, I've seen Madoka Magica at least twice and am currently rewatching Sankarea.
