A time when you enjoyed it so much, that every series seemed top quality and that was your most predominant form of entertainment?

For me I guess it was back in 2011, I was watching a lot of anime back then, and that year saw the release of A LOT of top tier anime, many of them comprising my favorites still in the present. Things like Steins Gate, Fate Zero, Usagi Drop, Madoka, Anohana, Chihayafuru, among others made that year the highlight of experiencing anime for me.

The time when I was only watching harem and ecchi and was watching on TV on my coach when the weather was colder. Good times, I remember watching Place to Place while I have a comforter on me.

If we are talking about favourite year, then MALgraph says that my mean score for 2014 is the highest out of any other year that I've at least completed series in the double digits. One of my favourites came out that year, and there were a bunch of other shows that I gave at least an 8 to as well, so 2014 would be my pick.

But honestly when I first seriously watching in 2013, I thought most if not all the anime I watched around that time were great because I wasn't as picky. Those were the good old days, come to think of it.

The highlight would be the years when I was in school, like 1/3 of the class would watch anime. I still regret that I didn't watch more anime back then, I rarely have chances to talk about anime with friends in real life after that.

Also this Winter 2018 season. I haven't watch seasonal anime for a long time, and the experience is great. Even though I can't keep up and put some of the best one on-hold, I am liking all the anime I am watching,

Probably the late 2000's. I had the scy-fy channel back then and they would show a bunch of old anime like Akira, Perfect Blue, Jin-Roh, Wicked City, Ninja Scroll etc. which continue to be some of my favorite.

The first month.

I had a severe depression back then, had problems everywhere. I mean really big problems - I was even homeless for a few days. I had to leave house because I didn't want to follow their religion.
With no friends willing to help me it was very hard.

My luck was that I found a job at that moment that offered accommodation. The sallary was pitiful and they worked us like slaves - there were times when the concrete was coming at 9, 10 or even 11, at night...and despite working 10 hours normally, we had to continue to work until the concrete came.

----

Bottom line, it was one of the hardest moments in my life. Looking back I often wonder how did I manage to resist... it was then that I discovered anime. I would often sleep 3 or 4 hours a night only so I could watch anime despite that the following day was going to be hella hard.

It was my refuge, my way of escaping reality.

When I just got into it watching anime. My expectations were so low for anime I was blown away when I enjoyed it.

Probably somewhere from 2009 to 2011 I guess. Since that's where I started watching online and everything I found happens to be enjoyable enough for me.
