| Honestly in my opinion, it doesn't matter what anime you watch as nobody can stop you. Also Ecchi anime most of the time aren't used to arouse people, but for pure comedy and humor. The Fairy Tail manga and anime are a good example of this. ^^ |

| Yes you should be ashamed for watching ecchi. If you look at even imaginary girls in that way you are a committing adultery at heart which is a violation of the 10 commandments... and I fully condone hail Satan |

Intelligenza said: No, ecchi is awesome. I love every second of it <3. I honestly can't get enough of it sometimes, too hot. Got to chill out with some action or comedy anime sometimes, because that's when the hand is reaching down. Can't really be ashamed of something at this level that gets you off. i like what i just read lol now help me on my mission ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) |

Alcoholic-san said: dadnaya said: it's certainly not something you talk aboutIs it considered wrong to watch Ecchi and enjoy it? And do the people who watch it need to be embarrassed? It's human nature after all, being attracted to naked bodies and sexual relationships. I've been asking that, since I'm watching Kiss X Sis and I read that it's on the border of hentai... And i enjoy watching Kiss X sis who goes around talking about the porn they watch> I don't go around talking about it, but I don't dislike it. |
| Depends on the mindset of the viewer and what he/she wants to gain from the anime. Ecchi is found in most non-child friendly anime now. It can be vary to being explicit to mere implications. I don't know why he/she would be embarrassed if it entertains them. |

Fo said: I didn't read the thread but I'm positive that it's just filled to the brim with self righteous crys of "I aint ashamed of nothin!" posts. Sit down and throw on some ecchi tonight when you're just chilling with your girl, see how she reacts. I'd say it'll be a pretty even split between them being cool with it - or getting completely grossed out. Some things are just better left as private hobbies and if you like to watch ecchi, you're a little bit promiscuous and most of the "real" world just isn't ready to embrace your special snowflakey-ness. Not a big deal. Choosing an anime two different people can watch is not just about avoiding ecchi, you know. First you have to find a show that is reasonably appealing to both genders. That said, accepting the fact that I enjoy ecchi, porn and stuff is something I expect from my girlfriend (not that I have one). Dating children is not cool for adults like me. |
| Just kids are ashamed of it Everyone has some kind of sexuality so most of people actually enjoy ecchi where also a lot of them downrates the show because they "didn't enjoy" them and such but inside we all know they fucking loved them. |

A girl who dumps you for watching Ecchi is a hilarious shallow bitch. Don't date people who are grossed out over sexuality. |

| No not really if you like it then you like it. Plus I like ecchi and I have no shame in telling people that. |
 |
| People think it makes them smarter if they express dislike towards ecchi. Spoilers, it doesn't, it just makes you look like a tryhard. You'd be surprised of some of the dumb shit actual smart people can be into. Smart people seldom pursue intellectualism in EVERYTHING they do, especially not in siamese smoke signals. |
| you should be ashamed of yourself for feeling ashamed |
Stay in yesterday 時を止めて |
| ecchi is meaningless if the characters dont have sex anyway, nothing special about naked bodies. the only weird thing is that people think its something special |
 |
| Just make certain you're watching it for the plot. |
 |
| well it certainly not some thing to be proud of |
| This Bruh *facepalm* #12characters |
| A better way to phrase the question would be "is MAKING ecchi something that beeds to be ashamed of?" And the answer is obviously no People have put in tremendous effort to make sure you enjoy it, so why not go ahead and do that? But if it lacks tits, then they did a terrible job and therfore you should be ashamed of watching something so poorly made Oh and also, tities :3 |

GiancarloLS said: Ecchi for me is just a pure waste of crap. Good stories do get wasted on them, like To Love Ru for example, where minus the ecchi fanservice episodes, I'm pretty sure it could have gotten much potential to widen up the storyline, or that new disastrous KyoAni "musaigen no phantom world", where if KyoAni just told the world that it has no confidence of its new anime so to bait/lure people to watch it, they need to show some skin. What makes you think KyoAni makes plot-driven anime in the first place? They just don't. Pretty much every one of their shows is not plot-driven. They're the people who made K-ON! Sorry guy, not every anime is going to pander to your tastes. Yes, liking plot-driven anime is a taste, a preference. Being plot-driven doesn't automatically make a show better. |
| Watching anime in general is something to be ashamed of. /shot Anyway, in all seriousness, the real question here is why you care to begin with. To me, that seems to be the real problem, not watching ecchi. Are you embarrassed by it? Has someone said something to you about it? Are you afraid of buying into that internet stereotype of the typical anime fan? Confront that first, worry about ecchi letter. |
 |
| No. You should be ashamed of yourself if you watch Free! And all anime having yaoi themes. Or loving the boy characters. |
| Haters always gonna hate. |
| My view on this topic; Of couse xD I mean like, it's bad enough that your watching anime, let alone Ecchi, which probably has an actual story, unlike Hentai (There are some people who don't watch anime and watch hentai at the same time xD). I think as long as people watch ecchi for the actual story, and maybe the comedy, its fine, but if you're just there for the ecchi, then just go watch hentai. Wat am i doin with my life. help me |
| ur mum gay lol Soundcloud - Lunar Aura |
| Yes, if you watch ecchi for ecchi then you're doing it wrong and there is something wrong with you. If you're there for the "blot", then you're fine. --- Now talking about my real opinion... just f**k the animators who dare put an ecchi in a way that ruins a whole series. |
 |
| high school dxd is the best ecchi anime i watched the rest were not up to the mark |
| No, it's nothing to be ashamed of. Unless you are asexual, it's normal to want to be aroused. |
 |
| No, but if it is hentai I am not sure. But doesn't matter, you will burn in hell anyways so you can watch more, it won't change anything. At least this is what I do. |

You'd be surprised of some of the dumb shit actual smart people can be into. Smart people seldom pursue intellectualism in EVERYTHING they do, especially not in siamese smoke signals. Why not pursue intellectualism in everything you do? Intellectualism is fun. Disregarding an anime just because is ecchi isn't intellectual, it's prejudice. Besides, plenty of ecchi anime at least have good art. Drawing sexy people is an ancient art and anime continues the tradition. |

| Ecchi is garbage and a complete waste of time. That being said, you don't have to feel ashamed for watching a mediocre genre, just look at yourself in the mirror and realize that you get turned on by moving drawings. It's ridiculous, right? |

They're the people who made K-ON! Sorry guy, not every anime is going to pander to your tastes. Yes, liking plot-driven anime is a taste, a preference. Being plot-driven doesn't automatically make a show better. CGDCT's plot about being "plotless" is its selling point. Nichijou, K-On, Chuunibyou, Tamako Market, yes they're KyoAni. And they're not plot-driven alright, more like character-driven. The characters' actions make the plot. It's like this: Character-driven = fine example is Harry Potter. The plot doesn't go anywhere until Harry/Ron/Hermione does something about it. Plot-driven = one example is Twishit (Twilight). With or without the character's input/actions/decisions, the plot still moves by itself. And that's a bad case of storytelling. Sorry but not every person is going to pander to your tastes especially if you're telling them your preference. (like you're replying to other people here) And I just realized, I never said anything "plot-driven". I said more like "if ToLoveRu didn't resort to ecchi, that could have been better because their plot has potential". Plot-driven is an entirely different topic. The way I see it, a lot of shows have little use for the plot. One just watches them for what they are now, and does not expect them to move anywhere. Some of them still have an overall plot to connect the different parts, but it isn't the point of the show. Also, I responded mostly to the Musaigen no Phantom World part. It's notable for being very loosely based on the original novel (most of the show is what is normally described as "filler"), yet I think it turned out well. I would not describe it as "ecchi" - MAL database seems to agree. |

Trapsoul said: well it certainly not some thing to be proud of I don't think anyone here is saying that they are proud of liking ecchi, and I would honestly question anyone who felt that way, but there's no reason to be ashamed too. Human sexuality is one of the most basic, fundamental instincts, and ecchi just appeals to that, just like how violent films and games appeal to the primal fascination with violence all humans have. It's just a hobby at the end of the day, nothing shameful but nothing to be proud of either. |

You get turned on by ecchi too it seems, I have nothing against that, it's just ridiculous. |

...not really. Anime characters have far more similarites to real people than monkeys. |
