| The only way to know if you'll still enjoy it is to keep watching and find out first hand. |
| Well I never really found anime, even school themed anime to be relatable, even when I was 15 or 16 or 17. Now Im 18 and Im just watching them for fun. I don't picture myself in anime character's places. So far they are still enjoyable. |

| I started when I was 13 too, and yes, I still watch anime consistently (I'm almost 40 now). Usually at least a few episodes in an average day. Not the last few days, since I'm camping and going to some theme parks, but on a normal day, I almost always watch at least some anime and read some manga. I still genuinely enjoy it. I love finding a good anime featuring adult characters, but I still like anime featuring kids and teens as much as I did when I was younger. |

| I’ve been watching anime to some degree since the late 1970’s. Actually watching more now & a greater variety than at any other point in my life. Even if I eventually l lose interest in seasonals, still got a sizable collection to revisit. |
  |
| I started watching anime religiously about the same age as you and still am to this day. Though I have a lot more things to get done every day so I don't watch as many now, it's still an enjoyable hobby for me. |

| I started really watching anime when I was like 16-17 (like mid 2020) and I still enjoy it as much if not more. It really depends for every person but as an advice I would tell you to just watch what makes you happy and don't try to force yourself to watch things you don't really like. Also, whenever you feel burned from too much content just leave it for a while and don't force yourself to watch episodes when you don't feel like it. |

| My love for anime has stayed strong over 26 years! Many people continue to enjoy anime well into adulthood. In fact, anime viewership spans across all age groups. For example, a survey found that 42% of Gen Z and 25% of Millennials watch anime weekly. among older generations like me, anime has a significant following just look at the age of the people who posts on these forums . As for why i still and always will enjoy it, anime often offers rich storytelling, complex characters, and unique art styles that appeal to me and viewers of all ages. The themes and emotions explored in anime can be universally relatable, making it enjoyable regardless of age. Regarding romance anime and school-based genres, it’s not unusual for adults to enjoy these genres. These stories explore themes of growth, relationships, and self-discovery, which resonate with viewers of any age. Feeling connected to the characters’ experiences is a testament to the quality of the storytelling of the anime. It’s important to remember that enjoying these genres doesn’t make anyone weird. Many adults like me appreciate the nostalgia and emotional depth these anime offer. Plus, anime is a diverse medium with something for everyone, so it’s perfectly normal to have varied tastes. |
| I am 28 and have been watching anime since childhood and I will keep watching until I am no longer alive. |
 |
| i'm 22, i don't watch as much anime as i used to when i was younger but i still occasionally watch it. nowadays i prefer to read visual novels instead |
| As someone that started anime at 13 and still watches anime at 24, yes I still watch anime and still planning to watch a lot more. |

I think I could never stop watching anime. :3 |
 |
| I have been watching since I was 19. I am now 29 and have no plan of stopping to watch anime. I still watch many school anime, but I also enjoy more physiological and mystery anime than 10 years ago. |
| I started watching Dragon Ball when I was 4 and began my journey which led up to where I am now. I turned 18 last month and my feelings for anime have only further been affirmed throughout the years. If you’re the same, it shouldn’t change much. As for romance anime, it really just depends if you like the genre because you can base it off of your own life, or if you just genuinely like the high school romance genre. A lot of grown ups love to watch high school K-Dramas despite having a job and kids. |
| It'll all be okay in the end. If you're not okay, it's not the end. |
| I'm 48, been watching anime for 40+ years. |
| I am now a twenty-seven years old and I have a Job and watching anime so don't worry mostly adult are still watching anime. |

| I don't think it's something where you really should be thinking about whether or not you do it consistently. It's a form of entertainment and people have stages where they're more into one thing and then they fancy something else more temporarily. I have gone through years when I watched maybe like 20 episodes the whole year, but it didn't mean anything had changed for me, I was just too deep into some other rabbit holes. For a lot of people, entertainment is a cyclical thing where they cycle through different short phases, sometimes adding completely new things to the wheel. So if you see you haven't watched anime for months, it may make you think if that means something. Most likely, it doesn't mean anything. Nothing has changed, you just did other things. One day you will stumble on something that makes you want to watch some anime, or you get a small sliver of nostalgia, and you'll watch something again. Maybe just one series will fill your appetite for that moment, maybe you'll enter a phase where you binge a ton of stuff, who knows. |
| Starting watching anime back in 2004-2005 or so, been watching ever since. |

| So, I’ve watched anime since I was a kid, and now, in my 20s, I still enjoy it—though, as you mentioned, work and other hobbies tend to take up more time. While my likes for anime hasn't disappeared, my preferences have shifted. I now gravitate toward mangas. |
| In my 20s and still enjoy watching anime, even if I am reading more manga nowadays. I still enjoy romance anime/manga in school settings. |

| I started watching anime consistently since I was 14 and it's been 15 years now. I slowed down, and stopped watching at one point. I came back watching again slowly and now I am watching consistently again. When I first got back watching (mid 20s), it was a bit harder to watch those romance school anime/manga because I just can't resonate with them. I enjoy them again now, I guess I just get used to it again and seeing them from a different perspective than when I was younger. |

ElmoBoredAsf said: **this is off-topic from the anime** I’m currently 15, and im curious that do people still consistently watch anime when they get older ? Like I properly got into anime at 13 but im wondering when im older will i still actually enjoy it as much im rn. The other thing im really curious about is romance anime and especially the school based or younger character based genres, I may be similar to the characters ages rn but supposedly when u turn 19 or 20 do watching these genres become weird for people. (Not wanting to hate or anything, just genuinely wanting to know) I started watching anime around when I was 11 and now I'm almost 20, if you enjoy watching it then keep watching it. Young or Old doesn't matter as long as you're enjoying the ride. |

| "that do people still consistently watch anime when they get older" I guess different strokes for different people. As teenager I was aiming for more serious and meaningful titles and didn't see a point in daily life shows. Nowadays (51M) I am more into silly and nonsensical stuff which relaxes me and even discovered some daily life anime which are great fun to watch. For example yesterday I picked up Akazukin Chacha which I wouldn't even consider when I was 15. The animation it's kind of minimalistic and the jokes aren't that funny (a lot of bad puns), but the VA's are killing it and this is enough for me. With the time I started to dislike melodrama and pseudo serious stuff (like 86 and AnoHana), also discovered that battle shounen (and by proxy sport shounen) bores me in the long run. But more importantly I learned that hype can ruin many of the more subtle stories or give you a burn out for the stories which are supposed to be enhanced by it. |
