| in general people that don’t watch anime think people who watch anime and really into it are such weirdo and indoors people but it’s not case. definitely there are some people out there with that description, but I don’t think so if you watch some anime, you don’t consider normal person. |
| Anime has big influence in my life that it turned out into "normal" for me... so guess I don't think I'm "normal" without it. |

Not me.~ I've been a NEET / Hikikomori since 2013, am only interested in real women if they remind me of my favorite characters, have done lots of online role playing, analyze the MBTI of anime girls (as a replacement for dere archetypes), have Omega Labyrinth Life, Senran Kagura Peach Ball, and Senran Kagura Reflexions on my Nintendo Switch, my most expensive manga volume was $100, and it's female wrestler hentai, (Ring x Mama) etc.~ |

| How about doing both? I don't see the issue here. |

| Cute, imagine thinking watching anime is the one thing preventing people from being normies. Look, people in here are either normies that watch anime already, or they are weirdos who happen to watch anime but would still be weirdos without anime. Anime might attract weirdos to some degree, but it's not the deciding factor... |
| I probably regret this post by now. |

| To become ""normal"" i'd have to do a lot more than quitting anime. It's not like i can't pull it off, but why would i want to? |
   |
| Normal ? Ofc u can be normal just move to Normal Residential like this one POGGG |
 |
| Who gets to decide watching anime makes you abnormal? I think it's perfectly normal to watch anime, as there are people who like football. |

in the eyes of a great many "Normies" for certain. Why? probably because the standards of Womanhood for the average hardcore Otaku male are basically way the hell out there nearing the orbit of Pluto, among other little niggling details... |

| Define normal.... Like a 20 years in education, then 40 years of getting yelled at by boss at work and nagged at by wife at home... disrespectful kids wasting your money smoking weed and drinking instead of going to college... Screw that man.. |
 |
| People who don't watch anime aren't normal and they don't have a normal life. |
| All weebs creatures of the galaxy, hear this message. Those of you who listen will not be struck by western animation. You will no longer know hunger, nor pain. Your Anime have come to lead you now. Our strength shall serve as a luminous sun toward which all intelligence may blossom. And the impervious shelter beneath which you will prosper. However, for those who refuse our offer and cling to their western animation ways… For you, there will be great wrath. |
| Be what society defines as normal and you're gonna end up like the old man from inuyashiki.. minus all the cool alien techs.. |
| |
| just as you said, it just seems so boring |
 |
| Pretty sure I'd need to watch more anime in order to be more normal. |
| Avatar character is Gabriel from Gabriel DropOut. |
| I barely watch anime these days. Where can I reclaim my house, car, family and a 9-17 job? |
| That's impossible. The mark of anime is already imprinted onto your soul, normality will never be an option. |
 |
| Maybe when an anime has for original creator a person that shares my first name and my family name, adapted from a light novel I've written |
 |
| I prefer being a normal person with a normal life who also watches anime in his free time, though I've been playing video games way more frequently in these occasions in the last few years. |
| 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. |
| I've tried it for a couple years but then I got addicted to TV series instead. I'm condemned to live my life through fictional characters. |
| "I hate humans. I find the thought that I'm from the same species to be depressing"– Koko Hekmatyar |
| If you're not watching anime then you're not normal. What do you think normal is? Working a 9-5 job? Paying bills and raising kids and drinking at night? That's abnormal to me. Doing what you enjoy is as normal as it gets. |
| I don't think I will "quit," but I have instead accepted that at one point in the future, I will slowly and naturally watch less and less anime, until I no longer watch anime at all. |
| What if I already happen to have a normal life? |
 |
| good grief the op is so disconnected, you can watch anime while being a completely normal person. just don't let it control your life 💀💀💀 |
| good opinions on anything, block = I own you |
Yes, absolutely. I can't stand anymore how not normal I am and also strive to look more like this soon: |
| But what if I'm a normal person with a normal life who just so happens to enjoy anime? |

| Bit of a ramble here, sorry in advance. Well, define normal. Actually, define abnormal instead. I have a decent idea of what we seem to be defining as normal here, so this is what I have to say. As a neurodivergent goth animanga fan + gamer + metalhead who is generally into 'otaku culture', of course, I have certainly questioned the normalcy of myself and my interests. But I don't think I have ever seriously considered becoming "normal" because truth is, what really is 'normal'? If you must unnaturally force yourself to become normal, is it truly being normal if it's forced and deliberate? If liking things like anime is what comes naturally to you, then we can assume it's your own normal, yes? The term "normal" is much too subjective to even care about things like this in the first place. Chances are you're only thinking about becoming "normal" because something in your life has negatively affected your view of your interests and lifestyle to make you think that you not normal. Not to sound like an asshole, but insecurity, perhaps? TLDR; Normal is too subjective, so who cares? Life is too short to worry about this shit - do and like what makes you happy. |

stanuwu said: Who has ever thought about quitting anime to become a normal person with a normal life? I was once a normal person then darnit... Anime came in and ruined my life forever. I haven't been the same since I was ever exposed to it. All those flashy animated sequences got me so addicted. I have been in and out of rehab because of it over the past few decades and even went a few times to "Anime anonymous". I almost went A few year once without ever watching any Anime. Sadly I cheated a few times and broke my streak. It's really hard to go back to being a normal person with a normal life once you are exposed to Anime. I even had withdraw a few times and would try to watch Hanna-Barbera cartoons as a substitute just to try to ween myself off of Anime. But in all seriousness if you have this type of mind set that you ask this question in the 1st place, maybe it's gotten to an addiction level for you where you find yourself living an unhealthy abnormal lifestyle because of your viewing habits. |
 |
| watching anime doesn't make you any different from a normal person it's just another from entertainment like normal tv series |
| "Who has ever thought about quitting anime to become a normal person with a normal life?" Only a weak minded looser would even consider this idea...ewwww! |
| Nobody is normal; we only differ in the extent of our madness. |
 |
| thinking that quitting on anime would make someone normal proves that you are not normal yourself answering your question... i already am a normal person with a normal life lol |
| I've thought about what my life would be like without anime plenty of times and it ain't something which appeals to me. |
 |
| watching anime is normal now tho, unlike before that people see anime watchers as nerd or weird |
millo said: you sounds like a prince! if i have unlimited money i wouldn't mind being a NEET and living my life comfortably watching every anime while sipping cocktail in my pool everyday just like you I'm very picky about anime. I will never watch "every" anime. I like when there's a character I relate to, and I relate more to female characters than males.

|
| I'm on my way there, I guess, but I'm definitely not going to give up anime for good. |
Take care of yourself |
| >this guy has normie taste anyway lul |
