| I just saw some users having 300-400 days time of watching anime, but is it worth spending so much time on just one hobby? Imo it’s a waste of time. |
| No because most of the anime are trash. |
| If it's enjoyable, then yes. If it's not, then no. If it's not worth your time, then stop. |
| Yes, because I enjoy and like anime. |
 |
| It is definitely a waste of valuable time but I suppose it can provide some enjoyment and even maybe inspiration. But yes, many waste a lot of time watching anime. |
 |
| I like to tell myself that people with 300 - 400 days watched we’re doing other things at the same time and watching it dubbed in the background. |
| No, that’s why I don’t do that weeb shit |
 |
| Yes, because it's the most entertaining thing ever. |
 |
| Anime is entertainment as much as any other entertainment in the world and the point of entertainment is to relax and have fun. So in short, yes, it is very much worth it. Also above mentioned 300-400 days can be easily acquired through years of watching. It doesn't mean the person has used a year and a half to only watching anime. |
 |
| Imagine not having any hobby that you could enjoy for the time span of a year throughout your entire life. In short yes it's worth it as any dedicated hobby should be. |
| I prefer gaming way more, it's more relaxing to me, and yeah, I can't definitely spend my free time only on one hobby. |
| As compared to what? What IS worth spending time on? Nothing is, or whatever you want to spend it on. |
| I probably regret this post by now. |
| I mean, wouldn't it have to be if you've spent that much time on it? Lol |
 |
| With 210.4 days in my stats I've been actively watching anime since 2007, so it's around 14 years which is around 15 days per year which doesn't seem that much. Not to mention, if something brings you joy, time invested in it is worth it. |
| To be fair, everything you do is a waste of time in some sense. |
| OP is jealous because some people had 10 times more fun than him? |
| I mean if they had fun watching it who cares |
 |
| it depends. if you have nothing else to do then it's not a waste of time: if you have then it is |

| If it's a good anime then yes otherwise no. Since I enjoyed most anime that I watched I would say yes overall. |

| Wow you just opened my eyes. From now on I'll spend my free time watching American TV shows. |
 |
| Count up how much time people spend watching TV, Netflix or YouTube videos and I'm sure 90% of people in first world countries would rack that up in a few years easy. Not to even bring up gaming or sitting around with friends not really doing much but enjoying yourself at the time. Thinking of it all as time wasted is just stupid. |
 |
| if it makes you happy, or if you enjoy doing so, then yes absolutely. |

| Everything is a waste of time since we have only one short life and can't even take anything with us after death since there is only big nothing straight ahead. |
| If you have fun watching it, then yes |

  |
| sounds like OP is a filthy casual lul Time well spent is not time wasted. |
 |
| I think 300-400 days is a lot. I watched 142 days and I feel like I watched too much anime at times. Is it a waste of time? No if someone enjoys anime then no I someone is just doing it to increase their completed anime then yes I feel like it is a waste of time. I love and anime and I feel like some anime do waste my time and some I do regret watching. |
| Fun things are fun, I don't really think anime has been a negative for me after 200 days, which probably is a downplay on my days since I don't include rewatches. The only time I consider wasted is time I have to spend working to live (even within this time there are good moments like when I get praised for solving a problem or satisfaction from making a process more efficient, some of my coworkers are nice people to), that's about it, any time spent on household tasks or on any form of leisure was valuable. |
 |
| I don’t see it anymore of a waste of time than any other hobby that doesn’t impact your health or wealth, but no if you enjoy it I don’t think it’s a waste of time as long as you balance it with other aspects of your life |
 |
| Obviously worth it! But a lot of people just try to increase the numbers to show off... Then no |
| If they've largely enjoyed their 300-400 days of watching anime then it's not time wasted. |
| The point of watching anime is literally to waste your time bruh |
| Hey, at least doing that won't give you carpal tunnel like spending all your free time playing games will.Then again, I guess that depends on what you're watching anime for... |
| make my life how i want it to be. it is a waste only if you see it like one. |
 |
| ofc when the discussion is over we wanna know your daily schedule so we can judge and disapprove how you waste your time. Personally I simply have my meals watching anime, making it somewhat hard to consider this time as wasted, but what do I know? Nonetheless life is hard and hardly anyone is born with enough energies to make the most out of their time, so whatever helps one carry on is welcome as long as it's not criminal. I, for one, wouldn't be any happier if I spent all of my days fruitfully. |
| No tbh but I can't think anything beside anime so yes |
 |
| people are just too stuborn to drop anime sometimes. yes im wasting 500 days of my life on anime cause friends moves on in life while im stuck on the same mental problems that i couldnt get out of by myself |
| Sonic X is basically an isekai |
| Considering the costs are the internet, device used, and electricity and no additional costs, it's actually worth the time if it prevents someone from using more of their money on the more expensive hobbies particularly if that expensive hobby's entertainment value is around the same or even slightly more. |
 |
| There's no such thing as a "waste of time" or "wasting time" to begin with. It's an illogical and illegitimate concept. When people say someone else is wasting time, all it means is that said person is not spending their time either: A) How the person criticizing them wishes them to or B) How the person criticizing them would if they were them All it is as a concept is an attempt to get other people to do what you would prefer them to or what you would do if you were them, which is completely irrelevant to who that said other person actually is as a separate person and what they actually want and value. |
