The boobs most definitely.
Despite being man's savior and downfall they're undoubtedly the dumbest reason as to why I spent hours watching anime.
Anime that I fell in love with despite how much they sucked.
In the end though, those boobs led me to some fantastic anime. I could never hope to repay my debt to them.

Watched Netsuzou Trap because despite by strong disdain towards NTR, I thought it being a shoujo ai anime would make it tolerable.

SPOILER ALERT: It was not and is the worst thing I have ever watched and the only anime I really wanted to drop.

So many anime I pick up are either because they're ecchi (I will watch as much as I can that's tagged as much), I discovered their OP before watching it and liked it (NGNL, C3, Btooom!, many others) or I think one of the characters is hot, that it seems pointless to try and isolate a specific time others would call "stupid."

I mean, for a recent one I picked up a 366 episode battle shounen in Bleach just because I found a porn pic of Orihime that I really liked.

I watched Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei and Busou Renkin because I absolutely loved their openings (if that can count as dumb). The case of Busou Renkin is curious, because I discovered the opening in a parody of Fate/Stay Night I found in Youtube, and seeing how catchy it was, I investigated and I found to what series the opening belonged, and that was how I discovered Busou Renkin.
I don't regret anything.

I watched The Asterisk War because a friend of mine kept on talking about how bad it was because he was really into Digibro.

It was okay. Great ED though. Love that song. Kinda vaguely want to watch the second season just because I'm curious what happens next, but...second season doesn't have "Waiting for the Rain" as the ED, which means I'm missing a major reason for watching it.

I've also watched a few shows just because of the VAs or the character designs. I watched 2 shows just because they got really harsh reviews and I thought 'they can't be that bad'.

One day back in June 2012, I was bored and decided to look up "anime games". Found a list on Wikipedia and seen a Haruhi game. Then I decided to see if the game had an anime. Glad I looked because that's how I got into anime. Looking back now, that seems kind of a silly reason to watch an anime.

I was torn between Cowboy Bebop and Evangelion and could basically only watch one. My internet is absolute trash so I couldn't watch a series without draining my datacap and ruining the internet until it resests the next month. I picked heads for Bebop and Tails for Eva, and it landed on heads. I watched Evangelion anyway.

I watched Black Lagoon because I'm going to Thailand on a family holiday and I wanted a taste of what it was like over there. I think the only accurate taste I got was when they would sit in the bar and drink, because I'm Australian and that's all they want to do over there.

Those aren't even particularly stupid reasons to watch something I think. Maybe I watched Gunbuster for the bath scene in episode 2 but I was also interested to see what Anno was doing before Eva anyway so I'm not sure.

Feel like I watched Hibike just because of the relationship with Reina and Kumiko which proves to be even more true because the rest of the show is kind of meh on every other level other then the kyoani look.

I end up also watching all gay media just cause, yeah it's dumb and most of it doesn't pan out but I do end up finding some gems of manga in that regard.

I started watching Naruto back in grade school because some Cambodian kid kept doing shadow clone jutsu's in and out of class, and he'd always do the Naruto run when doing the mile. Being like 10 years old, I thought that was the shit. So I started waking up at like 5:30 in the morning so I can learn some moves. He did the Naruto run doing the mile, while I did a chidori run....
