It's kinda 50-50 in my case. Or maybe 60-40.

I don't think so, especially because I became more active in the forums only this year.

It is a possibility given, but I doubt it. I watch a fair amount of anime daily.

Yes. And Anilist. I find myself spending more time deciding what to watch next than actually watching anime.

Only if I can't find anything good to watch. I'm trying between one and five new anime every day if I don't have anything good to watch, but if it turns out to be garbage I'll go through each fairly quickly.

Yup. I don't have energy to watch anime. Browsing forum and listening to the music is what I need more atm.

This site is only good for a few quick random comments to post. There isn't much intellectual discussion on here.

Some days, yes.
But mostly, I watch more anime than I spend time in here.

Yes. Imagine watching anime in current year, there is almost nothing worth watching.

I need to be in a certain mood to watch certain anime, have something good to drink, be comfortable and be done with my work.
Meanwhile I can open the forums whenever I want, when Im in a bus, jerking off or both.

Yes because there is more interesting drama here than in anime that comes out nowadays.

I'm more surprised that they have dropped 4000+ shows, that volume must be at least thousands of hours of let downs and disinterest assuming they made it 20 minutes each show.

Yes, because I have to re-set up my TV and stuff. I also have been playing more video games recently which takes a lot more time

Somehow he managed to watch every Fate series - and only when watching them all realized this wasn't for them XD

Very perplexing, I mean also if your willing to watch Fate/Zero season 1 first episode and Fate/Unlimited Blade Works season 1 first episode and then watch so much of Heaven Feel I, II and III at this point why not have watched a second episode of Fate/Zero XD

A little bit of everything, I try to watch based on recommendations, because the cover is interesting or because the synopsis seems cool.
