| So yeah I saw a good amount of people said they're picky in anime Your opinion on this? Also how about you? Does an anime need to have certain things for you to add it to your PTW? |

| See, some can be picky, but some can have preferences. I personally don't care, and for me, I usually just watch any show and am not picky about much/have many preferences. |
 |
| I check shows with interesting synopsis, genres, PV or that someone recommended it to me with an interesting reason... But when I check seasonal shows I go in commando style without knowing shit, that is why I mostly drop seasonal shows. I usually enjoy what I search for. |
 |
| I'm used to be very picky on the anime I want to watch.. But now that I found many interesting anime outside of my preferences, I'm more open minded tho I still have some qualification in hand. So, I think it's ok for people to be picky about the anime they watch, tho they probably will miss out lots of good one. |
 I'm starting to get embarrassed by my own forum signature line.. XD |
| For me, anime is a journey ripe with new experiences. I can't afford to be picky because it may limit exposure to some sub-genre that I may end up enjoying. |
| I watch whatever sounds interesting, fits into a goal, word of mouth, and/or friend recommendation |
 |
| I'm starting to think it depends on how much you enjoy anime in general (as a medium), some people only have narrow preferences and stick to them but some like discovering various things and are more open minded, because there's more things they enjoy. I'm not picky when it comes to anime, but when it comes to manga (which I don't like as much as I like anime) I try to stick to the best things it has to offer for my taste and don't stray much. |

| I only see what i know i'd like. Seeing anime requires a good amount of time for me, so i just check what i think i'll like. It's not the same for manga tho, i just check whatever i want and i see if it's okay or not. |
| I've got preferences as to what I'd enjoy most or add to my plan to watch, but I wouldn't say I'm too picky. I like to dabble in other genres I think I may not like just to give them a chance. |
| I don't know if I'm picky when compared to how the average person is like, but I have gotten pickier over the years. I think that's pretty normal, you attempt to experience the best of what a medium has to offer, then you might not find the same joy when you watch something that's merely above average, compared to the days when anime was such a new thing to you. When most of us were kids, at least when I was a kid, I'd see something with an anime aesthetic and immediately wanted to watch it, and I'd love it regardless of it's quality. I was a kid with typical Shounen tastes with Rave Master and Saiyuki being my favorite shows, yet I watched the entirety of Ayashi no Ceres and most of Boys Be because I just wanted to watch anime. |
 |
| I have a lot of weird rules and demands before i even pick a new anime up. If i don't believe the anime can follow my rules i won't start watching it |

| Yep I'm picky to avoid things I will not enjoy The majority of seasonal anime are trash anyway |
 |
| I pick what I watch. That's why I only have a small amount on my list. I check those that sounds interesting hoping to pull me in with the first episode, if not it will just end up on my dropped list. Which happens most of the time. Not just anime but also with dramas... |

As much as I want to tune out real life dramas I can't. They're following me everywhere. ｡：ﾟ(｡ﾉω＼｡)ﾟ･｡ But what I mean are the usual Korean, Japanese and Chinese dramas that I used to love but now I choose them. ☆*．･(*ゝ∀・*)ﾉ |

| If they're big into anime and they're picky, i view them not as preferential but short-sighted. Preferential means you're a lot more open about what you watch. If they're not big into anime and they're picky, i think it's natural since that's how i think majority of people start out. |
 I don't believe in the Devil. You should. He believes in you. |
| I have quite wide taste, so not really. If it has interesting synopsis, and it's not one of the few genres that I really dislike, I will give it a try. Though I do have solid requirements on quality of shows, so after giving it a try I may drop it if it's not good enough, or it just proves not to be my thing. This is less of an issue with airing series, since sparing 20 minutes/week on it is not so bad even if it's not as good, but for already finished shows that I plan to binge, I care about it considerably. Either way though, if I don't enjoy something, I drop it. So in that, I may be somewhat picky. |
| My net is wide and though I can easily point out what I will and won't like, I don't stay in a certain circle of taste. Pretty sure I've liked everything across demo, genre, length, cast, and time period. |

| I have preferences, but they're relatively lax as to whether I'll put something on my PTW. There are several more hoops to jump through before I'll watch it though. |
| Avatar character is Gabriel from Gabriel DropOut. |
| I wouldn't say so. I'll watch a lot of shit over practically nothing, like coming across a song on YT from the show and thinking "Wow, that's really good, I should watch that!" or just because of the MAL DB tags if I'm into them enough. Same time, I don't pick a lot of stuff up and watch stuff kind of slowly. It's a give and take, I guess. |

| I'm super picky when it comes to anime because there's so many garbage shows and I don't want to waste my time I always check the tags to make sure it doesn't have isekai/harem/romance triad of trash |
| Yes it does. It just needs to have a certain mature estetic,I'm sorry but I can't handle high pitch voices haha Also the rating most of the time makes me watch something. But always recommendations,and I guess my mood. It also help if I get recommendations by cool people here. But Im always open minded to watch anything,but it needs to be quality stuff. |
 |
| i guess i'm kind of picky, until it comes to sports anime/manga where i watch pretty much anything. i hate when the art has massive eyes + there's a lot of fanservice though, so i'd never even consider watching those types of animes. |
AnimeFreak-San said: is this a male gender issure...human issue...mental illness perhaps? |
| I watch pretty much everything. Avoid some genres, but don't exclude them entirely. Whilst some genres I'm more likely to watch. |
 |
| I add every type of anime except these genres in my PTW list :- 1. Yaoi/Shounen Ai 2. Yuri/Shoujo Ai 3. Dementia 4. All Girls anime like K-On |
 |
| It only needs to have waifu material. |
