If it good, I watch all of it.
Otherwise, I'd skip it.

I always watch the opening if I like the song. As someone who recently started anime, I've liked most of the songs I've heard so far... except Code Geass R1's second opening song. I honestly wanted to punch the person who chose song, especially after the first opening which I've probably listened to a hundred times in the past month.

Depends. If it's a mecha or sport anime, OPs are usually cool to watch with great songs.
if it's drama or slice of life, it would be boring to watch them everytime.

For example in a 25 episode anime where it is split into two openings, I would watch the beginning and the end.
So I would watch the opening for episodes 1,13,14, and 25, if 1-13 is opening 1 and 14-25 is opening 2.

I don't remember last time I watched an opening, I've watched some endings though, I think the the endings tend to make an anime more epic for some reason.

I watch it once, then ship it for episodes that follow.
...unless it's really good - then I will watch it every time.
...or if I have something else to do for a minute and don't feel like pausing I'll let it play in the background.

For all my anime I always watch both OP and ED for the first and last episodes of the anime. For OPs and EDs that I adore I listen every time (looking at you SAO II OP and ED).

OPs tend to give away characters that haven't been introduced so I tend to skip them on the first few episodes of a new anime.

When I've seen the op a couple times already I just kinda sit there for like 15 seconds contemplating life while staring at it, then just skip.

I think ive watched the opening like 5 times in the past 3 years. I don't like to usually cause it has tons of spoilers and is honestly just a 90 seconds waste of my life to watch the same shit over and over again

I watch it at least 3 times for pretty much every anime. Amount of repetition afterwards depends on how good it is.

Even though I watch the OP/ED every time , I can see why people think that it gets too repetitive if they are power watching/marathoning a series..

But I think if you only watch about 2-5 episodes of a given show per day, or especially if its a weekly show you only watch once per week, then you should definitely stick around for both the OP and the ED songs. I think they add artistic value and/or emotional value to the anime, openings can get you hype for the anime, endings can get you really thinking about what happened in the episode and what will happen next..

I have a friend that thinks openings and endings are pointless, and that they "use budget resources that could be better put to use in the actual anime itself." I tried to explain my views to him but he will not budge at all on his, I guess he just cares only about the show itself..

Depends...for example in Tokyo Ghoul. The opening is the best part of the episode, so it's worth to listen it everytime
