| I don't rewatch much. but i did rewatch some like GTO / SNK / parasyte after a long while from my original watch i get the same great experience as the first time, excitement, happiness, sadness, the whole package. |
| i always do this especially when i really loved the anime and its story, it actually lets me learn new things and focus more on what im watching and understand it better even though i already knew what would happen. |
 |
| i rewatch anime all the time. usually i wait a few years tbh, after i forget a lot of the details. in some shorter time spans, i sometimes form different opinions on characters or the plot in general. for example, i've been rewatching hunter x hunter lately, and i almost love the show more than i did the first time around. however, i like gon's character less. after some time, my perspective can change a little. i personally love rewatching anime i really liked just to see the moments that make me go all "yessss." lol. |
| It depends on what the anime is. I rewatched Madoka Magica and it was a different experience compared to first time watching it. |
| Sorry but I'm not immortal so i almost never rewatch, I always move on and watch something new every time |
| . |
| Rewatching is always good for your highly rated shows, because you can appreciate the little details better and maybe get a different feel with dub for example. Get a friend and watch together. |
| Sometimes I just don't feel like investing my time into a new anime. I rewatch anime all the time, I just do it in moderation. Sitting there rewatching something multiple times in the course of a month is a little excessive. |

Pointless for me, especially. I can understand someone somewhat new to it and wanting to watch as many different anime marking off each one they've seen, but for me, it's already too late. It would just be a hassle, and won't work the way it was intended. I hope you can understand. I thought about starting it from a specific point but i ended up dropping it halfway through a season. as for mid 00s, hmm.. what came out, oh the big three. I haven't watched them personally, because I was already out of highschool, and had a job etc. toonami wasn't on my schedule. I just watched anime that I had specifically downloaded and purchased at that point. but umm.. lol. it's hard to see your point. like, you think anime suddenly went to shit, idk, why, maybe cuz your favorite anime came out in the mid 2000s and nothing has lived up to the hype since? tell me. Why do you need to make a list? Idk dude because that's tell whole fucking point of this site, I mean. It's called [i]MyAnimeList[/i/] for a reason Yeah basically everything good babe out in the mid 00 also I haven't watched the big 3 and don't know what toonami is lol. what about the forums? that's the only reason i come to this site. fkin trolls acting like their opinions are fact -_- |

| For me personally it would depend on the anime, anything that I was really into or felt strong emotions while watching usually comes back for a rewatch every now and then. I have even liked a series or show so much I rewatched it right away and still felt the same value from it if not more so than the first time. |

| I find rewatching full on anime series again useless and time wasting. I re watch certain scenes from anime. |
 i like avocados on toast |
| I've heard a lot of opinions on this forum mine might differ from others but I firmly believe this. So I've been watching anime for quite a while and the first show I got the urge to rewatch was toradora! (It's a masterpiece) I really enjoyed the show the first time I watched it but for some reason (probably because it's a romance anime) I felt as though it wasn't fulfilling the second time while I did feel joy watching it again nothing will ever come close to the first time |
| You truly are the lowest scum in history. You can't pay back what you owe with money. |
| there is just so much shit out there, i barely ever get to the point of rewatching something |
  |
| I would say yes, I tend to rewatch some anime after a long time has passed, my standards change a lot over time and I like to see if the series holds up or if it's better/worse than I remember. Sometimes this can lead to rediscovering a series I originally wasn't very fond of and finding a new appreciation of it, or a realization that it's not really that good in the end, or it could make me appreciate a series I already liked even more. |
| Who are you and why do you show your hostility towards a complete stranger whom you've not once spoken with before. Are you seriously asking to get blocked? Well, if that's what your intent is; to tempt me into throwing hands with someone as lowly and insignificant as you, then i may grant your wish provided you articulate yourself a bit better when trying to spite a person of my wavelength. |
| did you truly enjoy a anime if you can't re watch it? |
| "among monsters and humans, there are only two types. Those who undergo suffering and spread it to others. And those who undergo suffering and avoid giving it to others." -Alice “Beauty is no quality in things themselves: It exists merely in the mind which contemplates them; and each mind perceives a different beauty.” David Hume “Evil is created when someone gives up on someone else. It appears when everyone gives up on someone as a lost cause and removes their path to salvation. Once they are cut off from everyone else, they become evil.” -Othinus  |
| I honestly believe it is. Especically if you haven't completely grapsed or completely understood the anime the first time you watched. Or maybe didn't completely feel it due to problems you could have had at the time. |

It's called [i]MyAnimeList[/i/] for a reason Yeah basically everything good babe out in the mid 00 also I haven't watched the big 3 and don't know what toonami is I would not consider the Mid 00's the golden age of anime. The spread of great anime is far bigger than just the mid 00's. Elfen Lied, Cowboy Bebop, Another, Akira, Psycho Pass,, Berserk, Ninja Scroll, NHK, Eden of The East...Anime ranging from the 80's and 90's had amazing, groundbreaking movies and shows, and the early 2010's had amazing shows as well. I would say anime really started going downhill just a few years ago around 2016 in general, but only because of the trend toward moe/slice of life and Isekai being the majority of releases. The Mainline Fate series (Zero, UBW, and Heavens Feel) came out after "The mid 2000's", and they are standards of story AND animation. AoT and Erased are also great examples of what modern anime can accomplish, not to mention the greatest gundam series to this day, Gundam The Origin. I guess it depends on if you are a big Shonen nerd or Seinen/ mature anime, but either way, I think the current generation is the worst in comparison to the 80's-2016. |
| Most definitely. The ones with more complex tropes especially because you won't believe how different something turns out to be on a rewatch. |
 |
| is it worth it...? YES. honestly, most times i just rewatch anime. its really hard to part from my favourites. i get these anime cravings where im just watching something, and all of a sudden, im reminded of a certain anime, and so i cave, and go back to it. the problem with rewatching... i learned the hard way that the more you rewatch it, the more chance you'll get used to it... like, you know you love the scene, you love the joke or whatever is happening, but you can't smile because you've seen it too many times... that kind of feeling effing sucks lol. so with rewatching its important to space it out, so its more fresh in the mind. that's what i learned anyway. |
| "My feelings are like the approaching summer clouds - growing bigger and accumulating, sometimes bringing rain." |
| Well, if it's a plot driven anime many years should pass for me to rewatch it. That's why i binge them, when you binge you quickly forget them. Maybe one day I'll be able to watch them again, who knows. Now when an anime has good sound design, beautiful art, is character driven, atmospheric etc you can rewatch it as much as you like. That's kinda rare though. |
| I should have known it. The rest of the world doesn't exist. |
KatsutoSaki said: Pretty much this in wholehearted agreement.Re-watching enhances your experience as you notice things/facts that you had missed and you'll get a better idea of the concept/plot of that show... But only re-watch a show, when you're in the mood to. |
 |
| I would say re watching anime is great if you want to watch something you saw a long time ago. or if you just really liked an anime and you want to watch it again. |
| yo :) |
| Mostly no. Depends of the anime in most cases. |
| BANZAI NIPPON. Nippon is the Land of freedom. Nippon is the Land of Peace. Nippon is the Land of Justice and Prosperity. In Nippon, we trust. We love Nippon, we love Anime. Anime love us, Nippon love us. 日本 |
| Yeah I rewatch anime pretty frequently. I just finished rewatching xxxHolic - something I watched when I was a teenager. I wanted to rewatch since I couldn't really remember much. I'm rewatching Kiddy Grade right now for the same reason. I'll also sometimes watch a show and then decide my husband will like it. He's not as big a fan of anime as I am, so we don't usually watch things together for the 1st time. I'll watch something and then if I think he'll like it, we'll watch it together. This season I watched Wonder Egg Priority and Mushoku Tensei by myself, and at around episode 7 for each of them I rewatched with him so then we could watch the new episodes together. There are also some anime that are just so good, I'll give a rewatch every few years. Ghibli movies, Sailor Moon, Blue Spring Ride, and FMAB are a few of those. |
| I am more likely to rewatch a movie more than anything lol. I do find myself rewatching series tho. Only time I do this is when the internet is down (Bungo Stray Dogs) or tradition (Angel Beats) |
| I rewatch to show to someone newer to anime. Otherwise, I have way more other titles to watch. |
| There's no inherent right or wrong in this universe, but when we think with emotions rather than logic, we make things so. |
| Just like porn I rewatch my favourites Yet to be disappointed by doing so |
| Yeah it is if you're going to enjoy it as much as you did the first time, if you love something too much then it is definitely worth it to have another bite from it, go ahead. |
| Depends. I watch Saiki Kusuo for laugh, i probably i watched same episodes like 5+. But I watched Monogatari series again to understand the parts i missed. |
| To me personally it isn't. Most of my enjoyable of a show is only from the first time so the second time just feels like a poor man's version of watching it for the first time. I'd rather spend my time watching similar shows on the off chance that one will be as good as one of my favourites than rewatch one of my favourites. |
