| A series that has some kind of major twist in the plot or some kind of big reveal in the ending. Say you haven't watched a series, but a major twist has been spoiled before you got the chance to watch. Is it still worth watching if there's no surprise or mystery for you? |
| My waifu is the most wonderful waifu. Mai Valentine. We're freaking out that we're running out of time, but to do what? Should i stop and think of that? Is there something i could do to slow it down? Live in a day for once, instead of watch it sprinting by |
| THe Promised Neverland was completely spoiled for me. I watched the entire ending of it. But I still watched it because I know there's a lot more to appreciate in anime aside from story i.e. directing, animation, etc. So yes I will watch that anime. |
 |
| I went spoiled into Clannad After Story and Death Note, first is still pretty much my favorite anime, rewatch included, and all the good parts from Death Note were still great. It is worth it, but man it fucking sucks so freaking hard and it made me delay giving them a try because my motivation died after getting spoiled. But yeah, when I eventually watched them they still delivered hard, one thing from getting spoiled is that now you can kinda analyze things, how everything going on ends up with that spoiler happening. |
 |
| I'm much more interested to the whole journey or the narrative of the show itself which will lead to its conclusion. How it get to that point is worth to know rather the endgame. |
  |
| i was spoiled for anime but still watching some were worth it |
| for sure, if anything I think a series really shines if it manages to still impress even after knowing what's going to happen happened with Claymore. I read about what happens to theresa before and that whole segment was still a great watch |
 'On-Hold' is another way for a completionist to say 'Dropped' |
| If it's no longer worth watching, that's a sign it's not a very good story. |
| その目だれの目？ |
| I would say it is worth watching but it depends. If I know any anime is going to have a bad ending, then I would probably not watch it. AOT is an exception. |
| yeah it’s worth watching, granted my interest in said series will probably drop but I’ll still want to check it out regardless |
 |
| I don't really know it's worth watching or not but I will still watch it. I always complete what I started watching |
 |
| Depends on the show I would say. If the only thing your show has going for it is the mystery, then i can see how it might not be worth watching. but if characters are likeable, story is decent, animation is good and so on, then it can still very much be worth watching. |

| I literally watched Gravity Falls (not an anime, but still illustrates my point) because of the and it's still one of the few TV series I rated a perfect 10/10, even though I went in knowing the huge twist In terms of anime, I also knew that and that and so much more, the latter of which being my favorite anime of all-time even despite the fact that JoJo is probably the anime I had spoiled on me the most and I really hate spoilers Even considering my hatred, I don't think spoilers affect my overall enjoyment that much, all things considered |
My greatest contribution to this website:  |
| Yeah. Sometimes I'm even more likely to watch a show after I've been spoiled bc then I know the whole story isn't as boring as its first 5 episodes. |

| It sucks to be spoiled about a character death or a plot twist or even the ending of a series, but the context around those events or how you get there can often be just as impactful. For a personal anecdote, my dumb ass heard so much about The Eclipse in Berserk, and not caring about spoiling myself about a series I didn't have much interest in reading, I just went straight into the BIGGEST PLOT TWIST of the series. Honestly, didn't ruin my experience when I did go back to read it through, because the events are foreshadowed a lot, but yeah. |
| I think it depends on the ending or the twist. |
 |
| The only time it would really ruin something is if the entire focus of the show was the mystery element. |
 |
| Idt someone has watched Death Note completely spoiler-free since 2006 so yes. |
| Don't let others ruin things for you. Even if a toxic fan pisses in your cereal, you could just get another bowl of cereal. The 50 Anime You Should Watch Before You Die |
| Still yes, but my enjoyment on it may slightly reduce. |
 |
| If spoiler or two can ruin entirely your experience for certain show, in my book this means said show wasn't that good to begin with. AOT is devoid of fun on conceptual level. |

| Well it depends but I don't think it would be as great as it could have been I wasn't spoiled. |
| Depends, a lot of shows are still great even if you know how it ends. Quintessential Quintuplets/Gotoubun no Hanayome for example. I know the identity of the bride but I'm highly curious as to how it actually gets there which is what no one has been able to explain to me so far. |
 |
| If something is really good, it will still be good even if you get spoiled (it's just like a rewatch). Beware of shows that rely on plot twists and not much else. |
| Definitely, before watching one piece i already knew some big spoiler, but it didn't ruin my enjoyment. |
 |
| I only do with shows which are too much action oriented like even if i know what's gonna happen but action and fight scenes getting animated makes it a worth a while. But if a series is more of story oriented and there is a major spoiler then i don't watch it. |
| 2025 might be the year where I will be happy. This year is not happy year. |
| If knowing plot twists or the ending beforehand can ruin a series, it was probably not worth watching in the first place. |
 |
| Must be a shitty ass series if it has only that twist or ending to offer. |

| Yes it's still worth watching since I enjoy the journey rather than the destination when it comes to anime. Altho still I avoid spoilers because the best experience is still finishing an anime without being spoiled. |

| It doesn't make as much difference as you think it would, it just changes the perspective you view the show from. |
| If you reply back to me and I never respond, I lost interest and don't care. Sorry about that. |
| I would rather that the major twist/ending wasn't spoiled for me, but it doesn't matter that much, I'll still watch the series. |
| Well, the only way to answer for it is to ask, Are you watching a series for this one major twist or for the overall of the amount of plot from the series? If you get spoiled on one last thing which happens for example in Naruto Shippuden does it mean that all of the previous 719 episodes around are worthless? |
| I would say, yes because I still don't know how the twist is conveyed to the viewer and that's interesting enough for me to watch. There might even be cases where knowing a twist might encourage someone to watch the series. |
| Yes and here's why. When you get recommended something by someone who knows you and has a general Idea of your taste, you already know what type of show that person has prepared for you. And you have a reason to think "yeah I'll probably love this, or at the very least like it". Same with the situation you're describing, someone spoils you, but depending on what the spoiler is, it may get you excited about how the story got to the spoiled part and you're attention is immediately set. The spoiler may even shed light on an anime you hadn't planned on watching. |

| I got spoiled by typing Shiina Mayuri on youtube search bar. I still finished the series though. |

| Yep, I'd still like to see the execution of the major plotwists. |
