| Because I might change my opinion on the show |
| Though on average sequels are worse off than the preceding season, there are still plenty of instances where it's actually better. |

MintPanda said: Though on average sequels are worse off than the preceding season, there are still plenty of instances where it's actually better. Very true. I was pleasantly surprised with Code Geass's second season as plenty of people told me it was terrible when imo it was as good as the first season. |

I was pleasantly surprised with Code Geass's second season as plenty of people told me it was terrible when imo it was as good as the first season. I know. It surprised me too. I believe people didn't like the shift in focus from the thing but for me I didn't mind at all. |
| To fuel my hatred >~< + being a completionist Like I had zero respect for Diabolik Lovers but you can bet I'm gonna watch the second season when it comes out. /sigh |
| The irony is, people who hate a show because they are pedantic (scrutinize it too much) and uncover too many minor flaws that they find unacceptable, are also likely (strong correlation) to be completionists who would stick with a show to the bitter end. |

| Luckily I've grown up and realised to stop doing shit like that. When Yuru Yuri S3 comes around, I'm probably skipping it. |
 |
| It really boggles my mind if the show is long and has a lot of episodes. For example, if you hated FT then decided to watch FT 2014.. then that's strange. |

How many times do you need to watch a show that is painful to you before appreciating the good stuff? I feel that argument is just an excuse by people who deep down want to watch the show, but are trying to find an explanation to tell others why there are. Fact: As painful as you find it, you enjoy anime and want to watch it. |

I agree that Meikyuu was a lot better I don't really understand that mentality, either. But in this case roricons list is quite accurate. |
| elitist: to bash their fans properly and with solid argument if they prise it too much or insult them. perfectionist/completionist: i have to finish every anime i watch. optimist: maybe can be better. apatist: well, i know it story, maybe i can watch it. masochist: It's soo bad, it's good. which one are you? |

Episodes 4-9 of Kajitsu were basically the most butchering offensive trash possible. HOWEVER, if you pretend episodes 4-9 don't exist, suddenly it takes on the form of a really quite good adaptation of 1 of the character's routes (Amane) and those 7 episodes (1-3 and 10-13) are 9/10+ material. Also, Meikyuu is mostly prequel, not sequel, and as such can be watched without watching Kajitsu first. |

| Probably, waiting for an improvement in the story especially if the new maker ins't the same as the former. Or maybe they're just being tsundere |
#CHEXIT |
| probably to show how much they hate it and want to lower it's score |
 |
| Well it's worth it sometimes. I remember people complaining about Grisaia and now they're praising the new one. |
 |
| I'm a completetionist. That said, if the sequel is too shit for me to handle, I'd drop it anyway unless the series was mega popular (SAO and UBW). Then I'm rather masochistic since I'd watch that shit just so I can complain about it. Yup, I'm one of those ones. |
| MA-SO-CHI-SM~ Isn't that what you call watching 5 eps of Toradora! and School Rumble San Gakki back-to-back followed by School Rumble Z? I became so sleepy, I nearly fell off my chair. No shit. Masochism = Completionist |

| Because I have to finish what I started. Girls Bravo season 1 was horrible, but it only had one other season so I might as well just finish that too. |

(like the people who rewatch Boku no Pico several times) @Snappynator: Correct. @Unyilkdr: I said what I said, because I enjoyed the pain. I knew it was going to be a pain. I do not enjoy the shows. Masochism: (in general use) the enjoyment of an activity that appears to be painful or tedious. I might agree that likening being a completionist to a masochist was me taking liberties. However, can you really suggest that there are no masochist tendencies involved with being a completionist? What's the first thing that comes to people's minds when you say you are? "Shame. You have to wade through a lot of shit." |

Kagami_Hiiragi said: It's both long and short term. Watching bad shows helps you with your overall scale, you can't know what a masterpiece is until you know what a piece of shit is. And in the short term when you go from a bad anime to a good anime the difference in quality is larger and thus it feels better to watch(like after you get sick, even just feeling normal is great when before you took it for granted). You can't watch only good shows or else nothing will be good and you'll get bored, you need the peaks and valleys, so learn to enjoy them or rather the process.The "appreciate the good stuff" argument is BS too. How many times do you need to watch a show that is painful to you before appreciating the good stuff? I feel that argument is just an excuse by people who deep down want to watch the show, but are trying to find an explanation to tell others why there are. Fact: As painful as you find it, you enjoy anime and want to watch it. And that's not true. |

| I would watch the second season if I thought the first season had potential but did not get there I thought Noragami was eh the first season but I am still gonna watch the second cause the story had potential to progress into something awesome in my mind |

DrCoppelius said: It makes perfect sense. And I said to enjoy them or the process of watching them(some people do that by venting to others, writing a review, etc). And I've already said because it affects you in the long and short term, improving your overall anime watching career, lengthening and making it more rewarding if you are in it for the long haul. That doesn't even make sense. Bad shows are the ones that make me want to drop anime because they're boring. They're bad because they give no enjoyment so why should I force myself to learn to enjoy them? And if a show has good characterization, good visuals and a good plot, why would it be suddenly boring because I haven't watched something crappy like Diabolik Lovers right before it? I never said it would be suddenly boring if you hadn't watched something crappy right before it. I said watching only good shows will eventually become boring, like eating the same meal every day, no matter how good it was it will eventually get boring. Humans like bitterness in small quantities to cleanse the palette and so forth. It helps put things into perspective. And I was also saying that you don't have to but watching a good anime right after a bad anime makes the good anime stick out more and seem better (better is the keyword here, not from boring to best, just better), this is the short term part I was talking about. The same as watching the same genre over and over again eventually gets boring. Variety is the spice of life and that even includes quality. |

| if the first season was bad but still has room for potential, i'll watch the second season in hopes of it getting better. if i absolutely hated the first season, i'll power through the second season so i have more content to go off of when i'm explaining why the show is shit. if the first season was really, really bad and it hurts just to watch it, i won't even touch the second season. |
