(Caught by non-fans or other anime fans, either one)

i worry my family might think weird of me for enjoying Oreimo if they knew the plot

Other weeaboos might laugh at e for liking dubs...4kids dubs
My waifu is the most wonderful waifu. Mai Valentine.

We're freaking out that we're running out of time, but to do what? Should i stop and think of that? Is there something i could do to slow it down? Live in a day for once, instead of watch it sprinting by

I don't really get embarrassed anymore, but I will say something like Kodomo no Jikan might be the one to do it.

I wouldn't want to be caught watching anime in general but definitely will be abashed if I was caught watching an anime opening or ending that was effeminate. Anything that is very 'idolish' is something that I would never want to be caught watching.

I'm not really the type to get embarrassed. Other people associating with me might, though.

There was this one time when I put Boku no Pico on a projector and people were hurrying to the windows making sure the curtains are down for some reason. You know they were my friends from the fact they didn't hurry to turn off the projector. They got a bit squeamish, though, so I turned it off by myself.

Highschool DxD, Testament of Sister New Devil, Interspecies Reviewers, Strike the Blood, or other extreme ecchi shows. although, i do have a few friends that are also as cultured as i am, so if i got caught by them, i wouldn't care lol

Idk why you would ever be embarrassed of a specific anime. Normies view all anime as if they're the cringiest moe ecchi shit there is, and fellow anime fans wouldn't really care. Note I mean real anime fans, not people who have just watched HxH, BnHA, Death Note, and DBZ.

Anything ecchi basically, and maybe some romance. Fantasy or sci-fi are generally the ones I watch without a care or even talk about them, but yeah, ecchi is kinda hard to explain to any person that isn't used to it... it's just impossible... maybe it's hard to explain even to some fans, lol.

Monogatari series, even with normies not knowing the specific ecchi context, getting caught while bopping at Renai circulation would be pretty embarrassing

Any of the boys' love anime...For some reason, I feel others will judge me for it in a way they wouldn't if it were hetero anime.
Less embarassing for girls' love...not sure why.

Bananya - It'd be awkward explaining why I am enjoying something that looks like it's for toddlers

i'd say normally anime that are ecchi or specifically ecchi/hentai anime and boy's love, but specifically for the "sex" part (like some i watched they were having it literally so...), but it's more being seen from my brother or my family in general coz it would be difficult to explain to them WHY i watch those kind of anime (and not i really watch them for the plot and not for the "ecchi/hentai/sex" part, i do not feel any "excitement" while watching them lol)

I wouldn't be caught dead watching any anime IRL. Family members seeing me naked would be less mortifying.

Maybe Prison School. The golden shower stuff was a bit...much, even for me. I was NOT expecting that in an Anime'. ROFLMAO

Any ecchi anime. I probably could get away with PG-13 ecchi, but definitely not with R+ ecchi, I can't let my family catch me watching that.

xd Oreimo

UMMMMMMMMMMMM maybe shit like Dragon Ball Super as it's actually kinda shit and money grabby in so many ways, kicking a dead franchise back to life with even more stupid danger than before

Which I do like but know it's dumb and someone would say it's embarrassing to watch it, maybe I dunno it's Dragon Ball

If I was at home I honestly wouldn’t care, even if it was ecchi or hentai. My house, my entertainment. Now if friends or family of mine or my wifes (the non anime ones at least) were coming over, then out of courtesy for them I would watch shows where those elements were toned down a lot. Not out of embarrassment and more out of respect that not everyone enjoys the same level of lewd.

Boruto, because it seems to be illegal to be discussed in society, unless you're a person with financial freedom x

In another universe, my non-weeb acquaintances proudly watched Mushoku Tensei and NGNL. Even the Rem vs Emilia debates reached public's attention back in those days (albeit not as massive as TeamIron vs TeamCap).
