Anime to me isn't my entire life where I have a real life wife and even a 20 year old daughter now.
I see. I never want to have kids. I also don't necessarily want to get married.

I want a harem in real life that consists of a serious girlfriend and mutual friends-with-benefits that I share with her.

And I want her to have personality traits in common with anime girls I like. I like the tomboy characters.

MHA and AOT, especially if they're girls. My little sister invited one of her friends over one day and she would not shut up about random obsessive bullshit like "OMG Armin is such a cute sensitive boy! He's a sensitive boy! 😍"

Quite honestly the most uncomfortable I've been around a person.
yeah... remember when no one simps for armin back in 2014? Yes good ol days... Back when people where normal...

There are good yanderes and awful yanderes, and Satou is so awful in terms of her actions.


I agree, her aunt is head and shoulders above her niece and pretty much any other yandere character out there.

Me I am concerned with people who love Mob Psycho 100. I understand that the visuals (at times) are jaw dropping. But it's the rest (the cringe) that I can't get over. Somehow others do, I could try to understand them, but I don't think I want to. I feel finding common ground with them will rob me of something.

I think I was pretty clear when I asked for examples of "BL anime". 

If straight couples are romantic and waifu bait aren't male ships husbando and fujo-bait to fulfill the fantasies of a different kind of viewers? Good dynamics does not necessarily mean they are romantically interested in each other, what you are doing is no different than the author all of a sudden making ships happen out of nowhere (like Bleach, I wasn't expecting any romantic closure in that one). I've heard that Ao no Flag which you mentioned earlier has the end ship happen without much buildup which is why I'm avoiding that one.

Most don't get bl tags, so I don't care about tags, and the majority of good manga others don't get adaptations.

Yeah, it doesn't mean that they every fan ship is supposed to be seen as romantic, but if I see character dynamics that way, I don't ask for permisson to ship characters, if I want to.
People often don't ask for proof straight ships either, they only cry you a river, as soon as you come around with queer ships and complain "but they are not gay, how dare you ;_;"
Also there is something like queercoding and subtext that mostly homophobes choose to ignore, but as soon as people of the opposite sex talk for three minutes, many people act like they are made for each other.

So uhm... I give not a single fuck about other people's opinions about ships meant to be canon or not.
Spoken like a true fujoshi, you'll ship straight characters and call others homophobic for not seeing them in the same light over fujo-bait and then complain about female character not being well written.

A sufficiently complex work can be appreciated for many different reasons, and without prohibitively difficult analysis (requiring more information than may be possible to obtain) it isn't reasonable to conclude why they like it. The individual in question may not even be able to make this conclusion themselves. The motivations involved for enjoying something are just as complex as individual morality. Kohlberg's categories of moral development work well here (paraphrased): stimulus-response (immediate satisfaction), delayed gratification, duty, and altruism. All of these things can be learned, so it follows that as one matures their tastes will change. There's a "right" time to experience some works, and conversely motivations will change so it is necessary to be aware of the relevant influences at the specific time in question.

An example:
A 5 year-old boy enjoys a movie because it is action-oriented and colorful. He notices that it involves fire engines, and he enjoys those as well.
The boy's father enjoys the same movie because it cracks jokes about workplace culture and has an attractive older woman.
The boy's mother enjoys the same movie because it contains messages about environmental awareness which she feels compelled to share with others.
The boy's grandmother does not enjoy the movie because she believes that the underlying messages are to the detriment of mankind's greater purpose, but she appreciates the artistic vision that was present in any case.

It should be apparent that if the work in question only involved fire engines and colorful action sequences it would be much easier to analyse. Some of the higher-level aspects may not even be apparent to the creators when they make the work.

Never felt it's a problem if someone like some specific type of shows, i don't judge them. But i do feel uneasy/hesitant if they hate the shows that i like.

If someone unironically likes Boku no Pico, then I'm going to make some less than savory assumptions about them and make sure they're never allowed to be alone with any minors.

Also, anyone who is clearly into 'revenge porn' like Redo of Healer is going to get a raised eyebrow and a step toward the exit from mere.
If you disagree with any thoughts or opinions expressed in the above post, you're wrong and I hate you forever!

I feel like Madoka needs just one "normal" magical girl series to be watched prior so normies have a grasp of what exactly is being subverted. but I've never found one that does not cause me physical pain.

As far as I'm concerned, Magical Girls were always meant to have severe PTSD.
Also Yakuza shows are wholesome, and Maid shows feature excessive blood baths.

Try watching Mai-Hime it's not quite Mahou Shoujo but it's really good.

I've heard of this show. Only because the opening to the VN version has a song by Ali project that I like. (only reason I haven't watched it already is because yuri)

Never thought I'd hear that particular adjective to describe Ali Project. Weird, terrible, random? yes. But generic? Aili project doing the OP song is a sure sign you're in for something with plenty of gothic emo goodness.

Well, this is quite the shitshow of a thread.

I personally don't care about what people like and it's childish to judge on a medium of fiction someone likes. 

Though shippers that force their headcanon on everyone else and call you (insert buzzword here) if you don't enjoy it as well do piss me off.

You know there use to be a time when simply meeting someone online who was into Anime was cool enough. You look how things are today you got users pitted against each other over specific genres and themes.

I think Anime would be boring if there wasn't a bunch of different genres and themes including those that I don't necessarily subscribe to.

There are time when I feel like watching a Shoujo series. Then there are time when I simply just want to watch a bunch of mindless battle Shounen. Other times I am in the mood to watch a trashy Ecchi. Even at times I get into the mood to watch Seasonal throw-aways. I also love watching Retro Anime that most users tend to shy away from due to them being too old to watch (mainly because I grew up with most of these). I also love watching fantasy titles and not just isekai themed ones. I even enjoy at times CGDCT. etc...

How boring this specific community would be if every user was into the exact same Franchises and had the same opinions on everything?

Yes it's cool to meet people who have similar interests but it's also refreshing to meet people whose interest vary. Sometimes meeting people into completely different things can give a viewer a new perspective and open their mind to new things they wouldn't regularly be open to exploring.

I'm pretty sure I thought Rozen Maiden had a generic opening when I watched it. But that was years ago, so I don't remember very well.
Madoka Magica didn't subvert Mai-Hime, it copied it. The world just wasn't ready for edgy magical girls in 2004.

@Blueberry173 I guess path 2 came naturally to me. May be because I love myself innately and that just always guides me. 

My parents called me egoist and narcissist. They often told me not to be egoistic/selfish and not be lazy. I ignored both of these directions. Eventually they even told me that I will never become a human being, 'because humans care for others and you do not' in their words. I ignore that a well.

Does that means I turned out an awesome demon or a vampire? Lol

Whatever they said just did not resonate with me to begin with.
if i have to be honest, cant say they are completely far off, any means of escapism is bad, the 1st inferiority complex way or the 2nd way, but well, if you were to take this random stranger's advice, i would say its never late to change, would recommend learning and practicing about stoicism, hope things change for the better for ya.

If anyone likes anime you should run far far away. Filthy weebs are the worst people in the world. The problem with weebs is they take the one thing in their miserable life's they like and make it thier entire personality. They all smell like dookie and weigh 300 lbs. Anime fans are inherently sick freaks. The casual fans are the worst. They act like they're normal because they only watch BTS and Nasty ball Z. At least weebs know they're the scum of society. Reparations will be paid for the sins of anime. Pride and anime will be the down fall of the west. Back when the world was perfect in 2004 "people" who liked anime had to eat lunch in the library and were ridiculed by society for there unnatural attraction to cartoons.

DEATH to Anime and love to us all

Can confirm, I was the library.

Apart from my close friends no, i'm not scared at all (more like "WARY to not offend them" rather than "scared"). I just interact normally and say my honest thoughts when asked. No sugarcoating, nothing personal. And it applies to all anime.

Dunno, I don't really have a problem with whatever anime another person may like. Even if they like some pretty messed up anime, as long as they don't like those things in real life is all that matters (to me). I can totally get why other people may feel uneasy depending on what anime the other party is into though

Also I meant anime only since that gives a pretty good idea of the sort of content that is popular among the fans. 
Not necessarily. There are more ways as to why a bl anime is made, apart from manga sales of the original it's adapting (most common format). The 6 lovers OVA series got made because the magazine in which the manga were published was having an anniversary. It was stuck in production hell for years and when it finally came out, it was definitely not what the fans wanted. Few minutes long "episodes" taken out of context that made no sense to someone who read the original manga, let alone a first time watcher, is not something I'd call a beloved series. 

Also, the amount and variety of bl manga is not comparable to what bl anime is there currently. And little variety plus very few manga based bl that get an anime at all is what many fans have been talking about, it's literally a years long topic. We get maybe one full fledged 10,12 episode bl anime a year, otherwise it's a mix between 5 minute long slideshow quality mostly porn OVAs and maybe a movie per year. That's awfully little to what actually exists out there. Horror/fantasy/supernatural/historical/comedy/drama/slice of life/psychological + bl, you name it. There is a lot more to it than just romance and more to it than just highschoolers. 

There's a strong gap between what fans want and what they get. And many will be happy with just about anything that gets an anime simply because of its scarcity. But that doesn't mean they want soulless adaptations or copypaste OVAs someone quickly cooked up to throw 'em a bone and then dissapeared.
