a while ago i was watching euphonium episode 8 on our smart TV in our living room and 2 minutes in the episode, my mom just came home and sat beside me. i was like shocked and freaked out lol because she doesn't usually find me watching this kind of anime since the main cast is mostly girls, so i felt akward , and so i just continued watching, and as the show is at its end im shocked that she didn't left and she was actually watching. and after the episode this were her reaction:

mom: is that it? is it over??
me: no its just episode 8, theres 4 more episode. but i wont be watching anymore today since i have to do something.
mom : ok then tell me when you'll be watching episodes 9, 10 , 11 and 12.

lol i was so shocked didn't knew she would actually liked it.
anyway do you guys have any thing happening like this?

You're one of these three: A complete dumbass, someone who thinks the world revolves around himself, or someone who doesn't know what "taste" means.

Anyways, I was watching No Game No Life and my sister thought the loli ecchi scenes were cute.

in some parts in our world, some people have taste for rats and cockroaches, which are pretty uncommon. and in some manner is the same as to your taste. pretty unique and uncommon. great taste of your's! ;)

A friend who's a part-time model whom I thought had a very exigent taste. I never knew she watched anime until recently.

I remember my mom watching City Hunter on TV with me. The first time she came and sat I was a bit nervous knowing the sort of edgy pervertish comedy it has but she enjoyed and and told me that I should call her whenever the next episode is going to be aired. I usually watch supernatural stuff about demons being the MC so she already says that anime is a bad influence on me making me believe that demons are good, so this one was a surprise. Another anime she has watched with me is Black Jack.

I get the sense that you're angry about something, but I can't quite figure out what's bothering you.
Also, your sister is a degenerate.

4. He could also be slightly trolling which doesnt fall into either of these categories
Calling this little twat degenerated is pretty harsh, maybe shes just lesbian.

After reading the title i wanted to say your mom, but i was played like a goddamn fiddle.

Then I wanted to say my little sister (~12y/o) enjoyed watching gintama with me but then I reminded that this is an anime forum and I should not refer to my little sister.

Pretty sure Euphonium isn't something anybody should be shy about watching.
Yeah I have a friend who I didn't meet for a year after moving out, and when I went to his house we were bored so I thought I'd make him watch OreGairu with me. His reactions were a little funny, every time Hachiman went on his usual spree - my friend would jump out reacting like this.

Last year, I had this popular classmate who turned out to be an anime fan too but the thing is he thought Death note was the best anime ever and there can never be something better. How can you determine that's the best anime to exist when I can count the number of shows you've watched on one hand Or ok, two hands..?

It was pretty unexpected but I just asked him during an exam and I was right.

Woaw nice. Recently? I remember my mom watching it with me when it aired here, I was like 5 or 6. (it was called Nicky Larson here :p). You could try to show her Ranma 1/2 after that, it's the same kind of 80's shonen comedy with a splash of ecchi, and quite open and mature when it comes to sexuality without being in your face about it (Just compare the portrayal of gay chars in DBZ and City Hunter... City Hunter wins)

When I was in high school, I was a pothead and delinquent. Most people would never think that someone like me would come to enjoy anime.

One of my teacher that i really liked recommended me anime, since I enjoyed studio Ghibili films so much.

Honestly, I had almost the same sort of experience with my mom recently but it was with Sweetness & Lightning.

I was literally just watching the first ep when I got home from work and barely noticed my mom when she came to talk to me. For 20 some odd minutes she forgot what she wanted to say and ended up just watching the show with me. Now, she just comes around every monday after I get home from work to watch it with me, lol.

I'd be the unexpected person in light of all the autistic obese neckbeards that populate a good 75% of the Western anime community who have way too much time on their hands to care about taste.

Yep. Got my cousin into anime
I had a really gorgeous friend and was really shocked that she likes anime
I thought girls who likes to care for their outside appearance didn't watch stuff like this? Similar to a gay friend.. said he liked one punch man.

Back in high school, I was really active in fb so i posted losts of anime shit
then when a weeb presented in front, our class president shouted at me
saying she likes chibi and stuff. I was laughing.

I once rewatched Girls und Panzer on TV and at the start of episode 1, my father kept on complaining and asking questions.

"Why are the tanks so colorful?"
"Why are highschool girls piloting the tank?"
"How can highschool girls lift tank bullets so effortlessly?"

I didn't proceed to episode 2 after that because explaining the series exhausted me. But he was pretty much glued to the screen the whole episode and said he found it a fun show.
