| I've been watching anime for a little over 2 years, and in that time my taste in music shifted by a lot. I've been a metal fan for most of my life and i could have never imagined myself listening to alternative rock (bands like Ling Tosite Sigure) or j-rock (not the newer stuff, but bands like Flow! and Asian Kung-fu Generation). I used to be pretty close minded about music and stuck to one genre, but i accidentally, through anime, introduced myself to lot of genres which i didn't even know i liked. Has anime affected your music taste? |

| Not really, I just started listening to Japanese music too and I've always been the type of person to listen to anything I like instead of limiting myself to one or few genres. |
 |
| Anime introduced me the idol world which I cant escape ;-; |
 |
| I don't listen to music with a few exceptions. |
| No, I love anime music, but I like a lot more of genres. While I like the song, the genre of music isn't important. |
 |
| Nope, how could it change my taste? I mean, I listen to a bit of japanese music (mainly openings and soundtracks, though) every now and then, but it's not really a change in taste. |
 |
| Nope, I still listen to music I grew up with and English music , I also however listen to Japanese music. I personally believe you can never listen to too much music. I try to listen to everything I enjoy and to just try and discover new artists along the way. |
 |
| I'm so pre-occupied with watching anime that setting aside time for listening to music is irrelevant for me. |
 All credit goes to Sacred. |
| I'm very bad when it comes to finding new music genres and songs. Anime at least helps me get a few but rarely do I bother to go and look up a list of songs by the groups/singer that did the anime song that interested me. I find I'm more attached that specific song because it reminds me of that specific anime. |
| Not really. I listen occasionally to anime songs or j-rock but that's the same with any other music. And it depends. For example Death Note or Ergo Proxy ost are not very different from my usual preferences. |

| I don't think it's really changed my taste much. Most of the anime related music I listen to is still relatively in the same genres I preferred before, just from a different region of the world. I suppose a lot of it has a more "poppy" feel to it than most of the stuff I listened to, but it's not really all that different. |

Has anime affected your music taste? you went from metal to alternative, big deal. |

| My ipod is filled with anime music, way more and better songs every season than other trash. |
 |
| FMA got me into Asian Kung-fu Generation, FLCL got me into The Pillows, and Needless got me into Granrodeo, but that's about it. |
 |
| I learned that I liked R&B/Pop, as well as traditional Asian music. |

| I have a lot of anime music. kpop , and jpop on my phone now.. I've always liked these type of songs ever since hearing anime ending and opening songs as early as 9 or 10 years old for me. I didn't start watching anime with serious regularity until 2012 .. so I didn't start consciously adding japanese , anime, kpop, jpop music to my phone or mp3 player until 2007 when I decided to add a few naruto op songs to my now ancient mp3 player. I wouldn't say that my tastes in other styles of music I liked before changed, I simply added another category to music I like. |
 |
| Yes for sure. I used to only listen to classical music before watching anime. Now i listen animu songs a lot, and quite a lot of jrpg OSTs. I still listen to classical music from time to time, but not as much as before. |
| Not really influenced in any way, my taste in music has simply expanded. |

| There was a time when i just listened to anime music lol Actually i am less biased in that, how ever i rarely listen to J-pop, i am more fan of specifics songs than from a band or specific genre but everyone has their own tastes i think. |
