| I just watch channel four and realise just how shit non-animated TV is. *switches on Channel four* "next on channel four we have a program all about a man who aspired to be something completely mediocre-and failed, just like the rest of us. After that we continue our televised debate on the colour grey vs the colour beige." |

Buritoni said: I only watch anime to be socially accepted by the social rejects. I'm always tired of it. well now that's plain stupid .-. anyways, I have a ton of hobbies so anime never gets old xD and if I'm still not in the mood for it I'll just watch a film or a TV show instead :] |
| It happens to me sometimes, but it doesn't last too long |
 |
| I've been in an anime slump on and off for the past six months. For me, I start getting the feeling that I've watched everything out there that's good, and so my options are to keep searching or rewatch old favorites. If I feel like doing neither, I just end up unhappy if I try watching anything. I don't have a lot of hobbies (can't play video games to save my life, for example), so without anime, I end up bored. Trying to get back into reading at this point. |
| the more you intake, the less you'll enjoy. kind of like if you stuff yourself with chocolate, it won't taste as sweet anymore after the third bar and you suddenly start feeling nauseous. the same goes with anime because quite frankly, anime is not the most original medium and the more you watch, the more you'll realize it's pretty much all the same, so taking breaks is essential to enjoying anime. |
| i have that feeling every now and then until i see a new creative anime or funny one which totally brings back my interest |
| I haven't gotten tired, but there are fewer top tier anime for me to watch. Though there is still some, and there is always new releases. I for one am awaiting Kaiji |
| I get bored easily so I'm not tired of it. Anime keeps me going. To live on without getting myself into trouble in real life. |
Monday said: don't feel like watching anymore ): has this ever happened to you? I hope I never have that feeling. |
| As far as I remember I've never gotten tired of anime before. |
| I've been getting tired of anime and figure it's because I've just seen so damn much of it and the ease of access because of the Internet. I realized this after I start a series and start comparing it after the first 10 minutes of an episode. I try not to...but it's hard. Even newer art has lost its appeal. I miss back when I first started out and each anime was "so cool" because I'd never seen anything like it end every series seemed so different from the next. And the only way to acquire anime was to buy it or borrow it. Oh yeah, and Cartoon Network. Like $30 per DVD with 3 eps days and boxsets didn't exist. (I don't really miss the spending money part <_< Actually it really sucked) And reading magazine articles to find out about series and word of mouth from anime friends. I don't really know how to explain it properly. It just sucks and I hope I don't lose interest entirely in the next year or so~ Maybe it's just all this moe animu shit. Yeah. That's it. |

| Well every time I'm depressed I lost my want of anime, as for the rest... But it's very rare that it happens. |
| FUCK YEAH :( i miss so much anime cuz im busy with a relationship, not to complain but I dont have much anime time anymore. a good 2 months for me right now X0 |
 |
| Yup, I go through 3-4 month periods not watching anything. I think when I started watching anime/reading manga, there were hundreds of series to get into and now I've watched them all and have to find the obscure stuff, or (heaven forbid) resort to watching franchise anime with like 5 seasons of recap/new characters. I think the hardest thing is knowing what I DONT like now. When I first got into anime, I didn't dislike anything, it was all open season. But now, I tend to steer clear of vampire stories/magical girls/dragon slaying/anything with a 'sacred sword'/kappas. Lol. I'm in the middle of a similar slump, and have only been reading manga recently. Hope some good stuff comes out soon! |
| sometimes, maybe its just because I was too occupied with other stuff.I think its pretty normal. |
| When you go for seasons and seasons with nothing but moeshit and fanservice, the thought of throwing in the towel is only beaten by a desire to watch an older series. |
| Nope never really happen to me, but I tend to rotate my anime. By this I mean I'll watch a serious one then a supper funny one and maybe watch some old anime. If I watched the same kind all the time I think I might get bored with them. |
| I had that feeling for a whole year ! Well at first it was forced cause of my parents who kept me away from comp for like 4-5 months so yeah but then as time passed , I gradually lost my urge to watch so even when I could , I either watched way too lil or nothing at all , even with manga . Then last easter I randomly had the urge to watch Katekyo Reborn out of nowhere and since then I haven't lost my will for anime !! hooray for that \o/ |
   |
| It happens pretty often, but I get over it as soon as I find a new and engaging anime. |
| Yes, but it's generally because I'm in a bad mood and I can't enjoy fiction when I feel depressed. |
| Yes, I feel like that sometimes, but I don't watch that much now to be honest. I just watch anime when I feel like it, and I find that the best. |
| It usually happens after I've overdosed on anime and real-life responsibilities start catching up. But then all it takes is another good show to bring me back. |
| This has happened to me a few times, so I just take a break. Then eventually I start thinking of all the animes I wanted to watch and I begin again. |
| I have quite a few times, typically because I just didn't have time for it (juggling uni and night activities do that eventually, but night activities as in 'not drinking or clubbing or crap like that'). It's annoying since there's so much I need to rewatch and see again, but there's just not enough daylight hours. |
| It has happened to me...I once didn't watch anime for like 3 years!!! But it was because there was only one computer and my cursed sister was ALWAYS on her facebook or doing homework. I didn't have the time nor the privacy(I like my privacy for watching anime) and thus I sticked to just doing absolutely nothing and wasting my three years just staring at my brother play video games.(I was young in middle school) lol but now I'm in highschool and have my own laptop and stuff |
| Not realy. I do get very annoyed when i have to sift through all that anime that isn't so great and since i don't like dropping them or they have one intriguing concept i want to see to the end i usually end up dragging myself though them...but then you come across a masterpiece and you make yourself believe it was worth it :P |
| Yeah, then I find something to replace it, get tired of it. then go back to anime. |
| I think i just hit that point right now (just watched like 100 eps of Bleach). But I'll just played video games for like a week or so and be back watching like 15 eps a day in no time. |
     |
| I don't watch anime every day, so I don't really ever feel like this because I don't smother myself with it. c: |
| It happens.... after I went a month with out the net i wasnt able to watch anything so i ended up being a normal person out and about... but then i went right back into watching a ton to catch up on airing series.. i always come back to watching anime no matter what happens.. im addicted for life. |
| I watch anime whenever I'm in the mood to do so and in result I'm spordratic viewer. I may watch them bulk or once in every few weeks, months or years. |
| yeah happening now. I dont feel like watching any except for OP. Well I dont wanna watch it at times like now lol I honestly never thought that this'll happen to meh |
 |
| Me to, 2 months later...... I still dont feel like watching :o |

ExTamplier said: what about now? lol... at least I know he's watching pokémon xP OT: Yeah, I had that feeling... I think it lasted me one season or so >.< |
∠( ᐛ 」∠)＿ |
ExTamplier said: what about now? It's still rather minimal, and yea I have been watching pokémon. I find it interesting because Ash is a powerhouse hehe. I might watch Ping Pong in the near future though. I might have watched 48 hours of anime the last 4 years. |

| never happened to me |
| Many times and in this situation , i usually take a hiatus for a while and then come back. By the time i return, i discover some interesting currently airing anime that gets me back into watching. |
| Too bad |
 |
| Sad |
| That sucks |

| Same, I don't really watch anime anymore either. I much rather re-visit the classics like Beavis and Butt-head |
