What do you do while watching anime?

I watch on my desktop and i almost always have a drink with me like right now i have a can of diet coke next to me open, this isn't just a show thing but general habit especially when gaming as for watching i give it my full attention but i tend to get distracted either from irl stuff or people on fb/discord talking to me and i wll multi-task but at times when i have had enough i tell them i am going in quiet mode and will focus on the show especially if it is something i really am enjoying.

If it's a short i with do 1 of 2 things, 1 being give it my full attention if i am enjoying it and 2 being if it is something i am just watching to pass the time and maybe work on a challenge and not fully enjoying it or want to multi task watch multiple episodes at once(depending on my mood i will watch 4-6 at the same time, a few times i did more tho) and even doing this while gaming as well which for example i have been doing a lot of lately again.

If it's ecchi or hentai i almost always have my dick out and there is no need to explain this.

Overall i prefer to give what i watch 100% of my attention if i can as i get more into it that way and immersed into it especially if i am enjoying it a lot.

On the bed, watching on my tablet lying down or leaning on the wall. Go to the toilet when I need to pee. I take short breaks after finishing few episodes then drink some water or eat something before paying full attention again for the next.

I'm almost always in my bed while watching anime. There are times however that I'll watch it in between classes in a secluded hallway lol. If the anime is subbed my attention is entirely on the show, however if it is dubbed I do homework or crosswords alongside of watching it.

Sit on my couch or in bed and just watch on my own.

Usually I just might drink tea or something. Though, when I'm bored, I do sometimes end up scrolling through Tumblr too .

On my bed with no distractions. I used to have a bad habit of keeping my laptop nearby which would distract me while watching.

TsunDairy said:
Depends how much I like the anime. 5-6 I'll watch sitting in living room while playing runescape or browsing MAL forums in another window. 6-7 I'll watch in library between classes usually without anything in another window but sometimes low attention twitter browsing. 8+ I only watch with full attention and only while laying in my bed in absolute comfort.

Multitasking is a thing. As long as most of your attention goes to the show, you're still watching it. If you know what's happening and what people are saying, what's the problem?

I either watch anime on my PC and sit in my chair, or I'll watch it on my laptop and lay in bed. There are those rare occasions where I'll watch a DVD or Blu Ray on the TV and sit on the couch.

People still play Roonscape in 2017? I watched lots of Animu when I was grinding trimmed comp like 2 years ago

Imaishi said:
Mostly nothing besides eating/drinking

Tsuxken said:
I usually eat a snack
Like popcorn, or pretzels. That's about it

Tsuxken said:


Usually on the bed, lying down on my side. I like to be comfy.

Domyoji said:
I usually watch it sitting at my desk, on PC. I like to pay attention to what I watch so I don't do anything else or maybe I drink a coffee or tea. When I'm watching less interesting anime or the ones I'm trying not to drop, I eat while watching :)

Rijouku said:
I sometimes come to forumgames or just write something. Though I do prefer to watch anime just simple without any other tabs open but sometimes I end up like this . It's okay as long it's calm and quiet or predictable parts but when I hear suddenly something happening I usually click back few moments to see what I missed haha ^^;; though I do eat too as well like bring my breakfast or lunch and just then turn on anime (though I do it with tv series as well or kdrama)

Pyravia said:
Do you eat while watching animu? :3 Where do sit? Bed, couch or chair? .3.

Pyravia said:
What about soda, energy drinks or alcohol?

Pyravia said:
Ah, I see. I did that too once, but it didn't work quite well. .3.

Domyoji said:


I don't drink soda or energy drinks. I have a glass of wine, from time to time, but I normally leave alcohol for when I'm out with friends :)

What I do while watching anime I'm lying down in bed and eat snacks

Rijouku said:
well yeah I end up pausing an anime to write something more than writing while the anime is going heh though I can't get rid of this habit ^^;

AnimuPatrol said:

couch or bed. usually never eat since i don't want to drop crumbs on my bed.

Pyravia said:
Ah, I'm pretty much doing that right now.

Pyravia said:
I feel like I lose touch with the aniem if I pause it repeatedly.
