Think about it, they hate the show. Yet, they can't stop watching it. :)

Yes.

I've never seen a fandom as afraid to say they like something as the anime fandom.

No. They just watch the show to pick it apart and act like elitists.

People find it hate whenever someone has different opinion from them, so it mostly depends on the situation.

Thanks for making some sense out of it. I'm honestly running out of excuses for completing shows I hate. People keep begging me for explanations and I'm just tired.

Did you ever hear the expression: “Can’t look away from a car crash” ?

That’s why.

Oh sorry, I didn’t look, I saw the rating and 300+ completed so I assumed.

That'd imply they'd start out gruff with the show but go on to fall in love with it, in the most metaphorical sense. Yet that is rarely the case unless you, already loving said show, like to construct fanfic about "haters" secretly adoring everything they claim to resent in order to justify yourself in dismissing them.

I say those that hold that mindset are the most deluded of all.

well, rather than arbitrarily switching from violent to sweet for comedic effect, originally tsunderes were short tempered in response to the frustrating, solipsistic immaturity of their male love interest. there was actually a concrete reason behind their temperament. so maybe you're onto something. lots of anime i dont mind watching although i also recognize they would be much better if they weren't so immature and superficial.

it's also not simply the aesthetic or emotional experience of consuming the content that provides enjoyment. people enjoy watching things because it provides them some kind of historical awareness regarding the medium, they're interested in the thoughts of the director/writer, the new animation techniques. people find it fulfilling when a new show references an old show, or they find it fulfilling to watch an old show that sheds light on why anime is the way it is now. there are all kinds of "enjoyment" factors that don't have strictly to do with the content and style of the anime. the actual process of recognizing what's wrong with the show (in the viewer's own view, of course) and thinking how those problems might be addressed to improve it is enjoyable in and of itself, too.

It's similar to how some people can't without a toxic relationship. It got something that makes it worth the pain. Humans are simply irrational.

Yes, that is one way to explain those who have their mean ratings below 5.
I am a useless student of society.
Tests are my body and Grades are my blood.
I have done over a thousand assignments.
Unseen by teachers,
nor done properly.
Yet, those hands shall never hold an outstanding grade.
So, as I pray...

I have yet to hate an anime I've watched. If I do hate it, then I simply must watch it again because that anime must have some extraordinary powers I cannot comprehend yet.

it’s always so funny to me seeing dudes in every episode discussion talking about how much they hate a show, maybe I just value my time but I could never sit through something I despise

If there is a will, the last episode will eventually arrive. Or they just do so to criticise in the end.
Help! I need somebody. Help! Not just anybody. Help! You know I need someone. Helpppppp!

That's what I find most hilarious. The ones who do mental gymnastic in order to dismiss "haters".
