This might sound crazy but I still want to hear your guys opinions. I was wondering if any of you guys had a gf that's into anime? If you do can you tell me how you found them or converted them into liking anime. Eventually I'm going to have to settle down with a partner and I was hoping that one of her personalities can revolve around anime.

This sounds crazy but please tell me your story or give me any tips thank you!

My first gf was fujoshi and into anime - I got to know her only through osu multiplayer, chatted through snapchat and messenger and one day met and became a couple.

Few girls I've dated/hanged out were anime fans/watchers - I mainly knew them from Tinder.

There was one girl with whom I hanged out a little bit whom I think I met at Pyrkon [Fantasy - everything, convention with anime section] whom was into anime, whom back than lived at the same place which was Wrocław but I don't remember much of what was the relation between us, buddies, hanging out, acquintances, completely forgot. I only remember we went to Asian Food Convention/Festival in Wrocław.

Two girls were my roomates at Poznań, I also got to know 2 female cosplayers but they didn't know anime, although they did some anime cosplays and also one furry girl whom watches anime, all 3 of them were my highschool classmates.

And also few at Pyrkon because we're at the same discord of one anituber.

That's how I met female anime watchers, if it helps than I guess that's good?

Nowadays it's probably harder to find a gf that's not into anime.
No, this isn't my signature.

My boyfriend likes anime but usually prefers manga over them since he's way more of a huge bookworm/novel reader

His favorite manga is Goodnight Punpun!

just show her anime that are popular shows in general like death note/AOT and if she's interested in the medium you can keep going down the rabbit hole with her

There are girls on my hinge that say they like anime and they get merch n posters but its for mainstream shit like death note and I think they just think the aesthetic is cool but dont want an actual nerd so I don't rly bother. Dating apps in general are full of bums or fake ppl anyway so idk how you'd meet someone with these interests organically

My girlfriend is into anime, but it's mostly ghibli stuff. And Pokemon. That's the extent of her fandom.

i met her through a board game hobby group. She was a shy girl with a religious family and was homeschooled. So i got sort of lucky because i had no competition. She sat by me, showed me her artwork and we spent the meeting looking at it and time flew by. Got her phone number and then we texted and called daily, then we started to see one another
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

No thanks, hobbies are a personal thing; involving others instantly kills the vibe and the mood.

@Exhumatika Shared interests is the one and only thing that makes people stick together after a year or something without falling into some abusive shitshow. Strange you didn't come up with this conclusion yourself - I think I remember you wrote about a few of your lasting relationships before.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Finding people who are into anime isn't hard these days. It's more popular than ever.
Take care of yourself

I've talked to exactly 2 women that are into anime and both of them had very surface-level taste. I assume 95% of these anime "fangirls" just want to goon to the pretty boys in fujo and shounen anime and lack the necessary interest in the medium to be called "fans."

My partner has been into anime most of her life, and not the typical Ghibli, Sailor Moon or Pokemon stuff (though she does like those, too).

Her top 3 anime are;
- Made in Abyss.
- Gurren Lagann.
- Mushishi.

My partner does like anime as well. Not as much as me but I just found myself a fucking catboy so of course he's into anime a bit. Also Tinder is a big gamble but worked for me

Wanting your partner to experience your interests is the worst thing you could ever done after more than once. I can't imagine my wife to nag on me talking about makeup and wanting me to engage in something I'm not interested in. Get yourself a "Live and Let Live" mentality.

I have to admit: I recommended my wife to try watching ONE PIECE, but no. She watches Turkish, Kuwaiti, Saudi drama shit show. I gave up on her. At least, she and I watched ONE PIECE Film RED in theater back then. She insisted on buying the tickets knowing I love ONE PIECE.

Yesterday, she saw an SUV parking on high sidewalk. She said she burst laughing, because I came to her mind knowing me I'm obsessed with high ground clearance SUVs and trucks.

Seems like a hard task wanting to have a girlfriend with the same hobby as you, even worse taste.

Regardless, if one has or had a geek or anime/manga enjoyer gf i dont like him and loathe him

As a female who's very into Anime and can land a date (lmao) i'd say it really doesn't matter in the end as long as you're not gross and you shower, brush your teeth etc n_n
I find it as a bonus when a dude is into anime and video games. Just take care of yourself ffs :U
