| nah but i've been told i dont look like i would listen to dubstep lol |
| I CELEBRATE myself, And what I assume you shall assume, For every atom belonging to me as good belongs to you. |
| The more attractive I became, the less anime I watched. /half-joking |
 |
| That sounds like quite a specific thing to say. If I did my hair and wore some nice clothes, and then told someone who knew enough about anime to have preconceptions on what a fan would look like that I watched anime; then I could probably illicit that response from them. But it's not something that would happen often naturally I think. |
| When my friends found out that I watch anime they had a surprised look on their face, so I get what you mean. |
| How about a "I'm surprised you don't watch anime" kind of response from people. Asian kids know the feeling when they get lumped together with the rest of us hahaha |
 |
| I've been told that I "don't look like" someone who would watch anime, or play video games. I'm not entirely sure what they expect me to look like, fat and greasy with an aversion to sunlight or something? It doesn't happen with anime so much, but being female and a video game fan has also gotten me the usual "oh, most girls aren't into video games" response. I guess people just hold a certain stereotype or image in their head of people who are fans of certain things. It just surprises me that some people hold these images so dearly that they honestly get shocked whenever they meet someone who doesn't fit their preconceived image. |

| I wear full Sasuke Uchiha cosplay non-stop, so I think most people have an idea |
 |

| i make terrible youtube videos, dont click the link unless you have literally seen everything else in existence https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCH8qW8C2w0PNpTGlA-0r_HA |
weeaboo__trash said: i keep anime to myself irl, that's why i like mal Shit, most people I see here on MAL seem to hide the fact they watch anime like they're trying to hide leprosy from the world hahahaha |
|
| Not really. No one has really been surprised. |
 |
| People at my school tell me I don't look like I watch it at all. But then again I don't wear any merch so that could be why lol |
| No one other than my friends who watch anime know that I watch anime. My other friends and colleagues don't know. So not much discussion about anime in general. |
| I get told things like that when people find out I like it. |
  |
| I haven't even told anybody about me watching it. I don't really see a reason to either. |
