| The only time I skip anything while watching an anime is the op/ed when it's in Engrish. |
| I'm watching Naruto Shippuden right now, and I'm about to skip a fight scene that I know is coming up and is gonna last at least a full episode, because it's literally only there to fill time. Apparently a lot of Naruto and Naruto Shippuden is like this, but, if nothing else, it means I'll finish the show a lot faster |
| I know I will end up on the gallows for this but I always skip the Opening and the Ending,I also sometimes skip some episode if I know that the events that happen in it are boring |

| Always skip OP and ED. Full of spoilers smh |

| A completionnist, in paper, doesn't skip. Unless it's an OP I detest, like the one in the first season of Tokyo Ghouls. I gotta say, I even replay certain scenes I am not completely sure to get - even when they displease me - so that I get to appraise the show as a whole as honestly as possible. Besides, I don't watch Endings usually, unless they're top tier. I also always skip previews as they're often laid out very badly: they give away all the new developments as part of the show's promotion, which is a counter productive move. |
 |
| 1 - generally OPs and EDs 2 - some cliches (someone getting lost and wasting 1/2 of the episode looking him/her until the MC finds them, this one is really annoying) 3 - long coversations about things that take themselves too seriously, that make no sense or that are purely pseudo-scientific stuff that are totally pointless and stupid (SAO and Bunny sempai have this issue for example) 4 - some fking idol scene... |
 |
| Almost always skip the opening and ending cuz 3 mins less. |

| I skip openings and endings if I don't like them (I like majority of anime ops though) or get bored of them. As for actual content I don't skip anything. Maybe in the series that tend to do the pointless 1 minute recap every episode (mainly shonen shit) but that rarely happens. |
 |
| I always skip the OPs and EDs, though there are rare occasions where I don't skip the OP because I like the song. |
   dragons and legends. it would have been difficult for any man not to want to fight beside a dragon. |
| The next episode previews if I’m not watching a weekly anime |
  |
| The Plot. I only watch anime for the plot Oh and recap episodes. |
 |
| As everyone else had said, I tend to skip both the opening and the ending after a bit. Unless it's catchy, that's another story. |

| Endings (unless I love them) Recaps Previews (for example like in HxH and One Piece) Most of the filler Movies that are not canon Alternative universes series Some openings Things like the beach episode or those things (even though I do not watch too much anime with those kind of cliches). |
| Openings and Endings sometimes and Recaps if there are any |

| Unless the op and ed are extremely good I usually skip them EcchiGodMamster said: if you skip certain parts of an anime then you can't claim you've seen the whole thing I would say thats true for in episode things but you dont need to see the same opening 12 times to claim you've watched an anime. |
| "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.

|
| - OP and ED songs (if I like them, I might watch them if the previous episode didn't end on a cliffhanger or I wasn't too desperate to get to the actual content) - Summaries of the previous episode shown in the beginning of the current episode, unless I watched the previous episode at least more than 2 weeks from the current one - Previews for the next episode - Recap episodes (if I don't remember anything, I just rewatch the episode itself - or even the entire series up to that point) - Flashbacks (if it takes a considerable amount of time and is so dragging it feels like a recap episode) |

| i only skip cringe parts and go back to watch them so i skip nothing |
| OP and ED if they are garbage and recap/previews. |
 |
| I usually skip the ending, unless it's really good. |
| skip all OP and ED except for the first/last episode of a series |
 |
| The OP and ED ofc And in Magical girl shows case it's the pointless long ass transformation and recycled finishers |
romagia said: so u only watch the opening and endings? tf?yes; everything but the opening and ending themes HaXXspetten said: literally thisWell the OP and ED when I've already seen the same one before is usually an automatic skip 90 seconds forwards. I'd imagine the same is true for most people Other than that, not really. Skipping actual new content feels wrong to me. operationvalkyri said: is surprised SSOOOOO MANY ppl skip op/edsI had no idea so many people skipped OPs and EDs. They're quite often the best part of the show. I only skip them if I actively dislike the song. OP: I have only skipped some HunterxHunter long winded chimera ant fights. The show wasn't bad enough for me to drop but those episodes weren't engaging enough for me to sit through. skips shit in HXH CA arc you ppl are the reason aliens wont contact us |
| I have the habit of multi-tasking. When watching anime, I will read manga when the opening and ending songs start. Then back to the anime when the songs end. Anime usually has timing for new OP and ED. I will watch at the beginning first or second episode (some OP will only appear on 2nd episode), and when new OP and ED come in between. When it comes to the music, I will listen to the lyrics and watch the preview-inserts. Some production has engaged good composers who are able to compose music according to the set which is in tune to the anime's particular or specific arc, scene or story line. Hence, it becomes more enjoyable watching the anime with the music as a compliment to it. :) Other than the above stated, I don't skip any part of the show. |

operationvalkyri said: the Arc IS abt aliensLol! Blasphemy, I know. I couldn't stop my eyes rolling when Shaiapouf went on those endless monologues. I'm still hanging in there with the arc, though. Not even aliens can stop me from finishing it. also, HXH had opening and ending I didnt skip. well I watched ti on tv, so I couldnt, but I liked those songs , actually downloaded em. |
| OP, ED and annoying forced comedy with "body graphic deforming" or how to say it (mostly seen in konosuba) |
operationvalkyri said: they are both, the original ants are highly susecptible and mutagenic. they then come here and mix their own open DNA with earthlings [animal and human alike] and evolve to be the most evolved on earth, they were chimeraic and accepting of alien [for them[ dna to begin with.KuroudoAkabane said: Huh. I always thought the chimeras were highly evolved beings. More like Godzilla than aliens.the Arc IS abt aliens also, HXH had opening and ending I didnt skip. well I watched ti on tv, so I couldnt, but I liked those songs , actually downloaded em. The first two HxH endings are spectacular! also Aliens as in from a different realm, plane of existence [like the mythological heaven, hell asgard(non mcu) etc] not from a galaxy far far away or mars.... the dark continent isnt an actual continent like australia [which is fake] on the planet nor is it shown as an actual different planet, so a different plane of existence is the only thing that makes sense from what ever much [little actually] is shown |
| Ending of anime and pass series, (if show with 50+ series in 1 season) |
| I always skip recap episodes because I'm usually still aware of what has happened before. |
  I will show no mercy for you You had no mercy for me The only thing that I ask Love me mercilessly |
| Obviously stuff that I have already seen before, with the exception of wanting to see the same thing again such as the opening. |
ええ、私はそこにいてそれをやった  |
