I usually only watch the intro, and only if it's good/catchy.

I adored the first FMAB opening, then it disappears ;(

For OP, I'll watch it every episode if I like it, and only watch it sometimes if I don't

For ED, I'll watch it sometimes if I like it, and just skip it entirely if I don't

I listen for anime op for hype and warming up before watching the anime. And the ed is for relaxing and cooling down after watching it.

Of course, listening to anime ops or eds is optional. And it's not really necessary. You can just skip it anyway, especially when you just want to get straight into the story and continue watching the anime.

I only listen to both when it's so good that i can't skip it. It's a matter of preferences, if i like it, well i'll listen to it for every single episode. Even when it's repeated for 148 times.

I always watch the OP every episode unless I REALLY hate the song. For example, I watched the HxH OP for all 148 episodes. As for EDs, it's the exact opposite. I skip it unless I REALLY like it.

Skipping intros is a crime, even if you think it is mediocre the first time you listen to it you cant enjoy it unless it grows on you. Its there for a reason.

I normally listen to a bit of the ending, I have it playing in the background while I am updating MAL, but I only listen to a bit of it unless it is really good.

Well it depends on how good they are. I probably skip the EDs most of the time. The Rahxephon ED is one I never skipped though.

I usually just watch once of both the OP and ED then skip from then onwards even if the songs are nice, because I could just listen to the full versions elsewhere another time. The only reason I'll watch it every single time is if I really like the song and animation that went with it e.g. detective conan ED 56 (conan and amuro running??) and of course, every single one of Haikyuu's ones. Especially the Haikyuu s4 OP, it really gets you hyped up.

I mostly ignor them, it exist a few ed's I'm watching as they have a connection with content to the serie itself.

And when it comes to OP's have ignoring most of them as I think it's a waste of time more then anything in most cases I hate the music, as I'm a retard when it comes to music. I got damn wierd taste and thanks to that OP's normal is giving me a headache.

And it exist show like Slam Dunk, if that show didn't have recap, ED and OP they coud have adapted the last arc instead of showing us the same OP and ED for 100 + eps.

Heck yeah! I almost always do. Generally they help set the mood for the show and frame its narrative.

Unless I hate the song. Which rarely happens.

Intros I skip most of the time because I am way too impatient. It has to be really good and catchy for me to sit through it and enjoy myself.

Outros I do enjoy and also need as a sort of bridge back to everyday life. Sort of like an overture or the music during credits.

I skip the outros but I’ll occasionally watch the intros. I’ve fallen into the habit and watching the intro for the first episode and then sometimes watch it (but usually skipping it) and then watching the intro for the last episode.

Normally I only watch the OP and ED's at least once.
Sometimes I'll watch it more often if it's a really good intro, like the "Monster" intro

Really puts you in the perfect mood for the anime.

Other ones are "Death Note" or "Ergo Proxy" for example ... and there's a lot more but these are on the top of my head.

if it's a new intro/outro I'll watch it because I always think they're the coolest parts of these shows, but if I don't really like the song i'll skip it after watching it once. If I do like the song, i'll watch it until I get tired of it lol. I love jamming along to them before the episode starts.

HAHAHA. Screw the outro.

The majority of the time I skip the intro. Stand Alone Complex OP is great, but it's a '1 time thing' so I skip second viewing. I'll never skip Tokyo Majin tho.

Nearly aways. I have a weird tase for the weird ass sub genre of music that are anime openings, so unless its a bad one or I'm binge watching a really long anime that I just want to finish before I die I watch them.

Yea, I almost always watch the OP/ED, or at least listen to it while checking Discord or something before/after an episode. The only times I actively skip either is when I don't like the song (maybe 25% of OPs/EDs) or I'm extremely invested in a binge.

Never skip. It's part of the experience. I grow more and more attached to them as shows go on, and then years later I still listen to them and remember those series by them. That's the beauty of it.

I watch both at least once, after that it depends - do I like the song ? the visuals ? the show ? also important do I watch it weekly like seasonals ? Then I might watch them more likely than when I m binging a series; saves a lot of time and I don't need to hear the same song every 20 mins tbh.

Bleach is an exception, never skipped those <.<

First episode or two I watch both the intro and outro, if I don’t like them I’ll skip but if I do I’ll sit through em every episode unless I get annoyed with it or something. I also usually sit through the intro and outro on the last episode to hype me up for it if they’re there (some finales dont have them so it also varies)
I skip a lot more than I sit through, sadly. But I can still appreciate the work on them even if I don’t care for it much.

From all the anime I've watched I've never skipped an intro and for the past like 4 or 5 animes I've never skipped an intro nor an outro and i'm planning to continue my anime journey without skipping any of them.
They are too good.

I watch the intros all the time because I like most of them, I'm starting to watch the endings because Fairy Tail has great endings.
