| watch stuff you won't feel ashamed of then I guess or you could just hang out with people who accept you for who you are |
 |
| There's nothing to be ashamed about. it's the same thing as watching foreign movies and etc. Unless you're blasting hentai or something in your livingroom lol. I don't recommend doing that then. |
 |
| If you're watching hentai you should be careful to not be caught by your parents, just like real porn. Anime on the other hand isn't something to be ashamed of. |
 |
| I mean, I guess it depends on the type of person you are and what you watch but I'd say you shouldn't be ashamed. If anyone asks what you watch just explain it to them in the most appropriate way possible. |
 |
| checks OP’s profile sees he joined Jan 31, 2013 yet claims to be ashamed of watching anime seems I got caught by the bait  |
|
| You should not care about what people think if You're not hurting anybody |
| Sounds like it's time to give up on life. |
1tamarzEUS said: hello guys, as you already know from the title, im kinda ashamed watching anime. i love to watch anime but its kinda hard for me to watch it in a comfortable way because, everytime someone entering my room while im in a middle of an episode, i just feel that i have to close the episode. :-( I'm the same, no I do claim I love anime since a year, and it's almost 2 years soon. But it's always in the middle of weird things. Especially when lolicon and yuri. |

| don't create a boogeyman that is not there... you're far more likely to be shit talked by another anime fan |
   |
| Stop watching hentai & you should be good. |
| Just get a lock for your door bro and watch anime at night when your folks are asleep. |
 |
| Maybe you should stop watching HENTAI and just explain to your family that you have a waifu |

| I love this thread but felt the need to throw it in the garbage, I dunno why though. |
| Well. You could always think argue that you don't just watch anime, but also watch other things. Like its normal for people to have geeky hobbies (i.e. vin diesel playing D&D). And here's a list of celebs that like anime :) http://goboiano.com/list/2287-9-famous-people-who-you-wouldn%2527t-have-guessed-like-anime |
| There is no reason to be ashamed ... I mean if someone judge you about this, who cares ? Also you can try to show them some good anime to explain. |
| I was like that when I was younger. Let the embarrassment keep me from watching any of it between 13-19. It was a mistake and now I'm ashamed that I let myself be shamed out of doing something I enjoy for a while. If your friends are going to judge you based on a harmless hobby, I think you need to reevaluate how you define friendship. Also: EcchiLordMamster said: don't create a boogeyman that is not there... you're far more likely to be shit talked by another anime fan This guy nailed it. The main people who talk shit to you for watching anime also like anime, so it's usually all in good fun. On that note, it's a shit medium and you should be ashamed. |
| Come on dude, it's not as shameful as most things |
| Why tho ? Fuck what other people may think, you'll never be happt worrying about other peoples opinions. |
| So are you asking us how to not feel ashamed about it or how to make others understand that it's not that bad? If you're just ashamed then you can watch it secretly at night on your phone with headphones so that nobody would know and that'll be your guilty pleasure. But if you want others to be OK with it then introduce them to it and maybe they'll like it as well or just understand that it's not that bad actually. And the third option is just not to watch it if you're so uncomfortable doing that |
| Generally, I recommend powering through it. That is, just watch anime until people around you accept it. You can speed up the process by explaining what anime is, why it is good, and what is good about the anime you're watching at the moment. Choose time (and use headphones) when you plan on watching something you do not want to show your younger brothers/sisters, like hentai. Having a door, and a lock on it, is always a plus, but not everybody can afford it. |
| It's only embarrassing if you think it's embarrassing......but I understand. I can't exactly watch a kid trying to kill a teenage girl in the bathroom whilst they're both naked inside a crowded train. how 'bout you look at it this way.......it's not something that's embarrassing , but rather....... a secret interest that nobody or only a few shall know of ^^ |
Fancy Quote Anime isn't Life But what's Life without some Anime, NEEEEEEE!!!!! |
| Seeing your profile .. Seems someone walked in on the Shokugeki no Soma foodgasming scene.. |
| That's stupid, just don't give a fuck about what others will say and that's it. |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
| when that happens unsheathe your katana and tell them not to intrerupt you again |
 |
| Well since you not being ashamed of watching anime since Jan 31, 2013, i think you are safe lol. |
 |
| I used to be the same way, until I realized there isn't really anything shameful about it. There are a lot of things out there that you can be doing that are actually shameful. |
 |
| What I do usually: If it's my parents or best friends, they don't mind. But if I'm watching some weird voices in Anime, Ecchi or H... Better watch alone, close it or get busted. If it's other people... Dang, no choice but to close. |
.............. |
| Sorry to say but that doesn't really make much sense. You love anime but you're ashamed to watch it??? |
