Yeah, I watch everything in an episode. I'd never skip actual content, and I don't think you can say you've watched an anime if you're skipping things.

Though, I remember this one person who read the Assassination Classroom manga, and when a certain disturbing scene came up when they were watching the anime adaptation of it, they skipped it because they didn't want to go through that again after reading it in the manga. At least here I'd say it's fair enough.

Ye I get your point. But if it's like a bunch of dialogue, like 7 minutes of someone explaining, I just skip some of it. I'm impressed that you can watch all the content! Good stuff!

My feelings exactly. I think if someone finds themselves skipping parts of episodes, they maybe should reconsider if anime is for them.


yea if ur skipping parts of the episode then why are you watching it in the first place, try to reconsider if anime is for you

I watch everything in an epsiode, yes.
Only if the Op or ED seems bland or bores me, I’ll skip it but nothing else oddly enough.

I am watching everything, like the op, the ed, and even the episode previews.
Actually the episode previews for comedies are usually quite funny.

I don't skip the anime itslf but some shows I watch at a higher speed. Per example I am now watching Galaxy Express 999 and I can see it in VLC at 130% speed. The same happens with other slow shows and with shows I am watching in pain but don't want to drop out...

Other shows I do enjoy I watch at 100% as normal.

The only show I watched at 80% was teekyuu... the damn show was fast as heck...

Yes,cause I'm afraid to miss something,but when it get's really boring then I stop paying my full attention and browse through MAL.

Usually that's a sign to drop the show,tho.

Not sure if you're trolling, but skipping the actual contents of an episode can really hurt your credibility, and your opinion would mean virtually nothing. See it as wasting everyone's time, including yours.

I’ll usually watch the OP and ED every first episode. If it’s not any good then I’ll skip them for the remaining episodes.

I also sometimes skip parts of long battle sequences.

I don't watch the OPs (except if I love them, like with Uncharted Walker or Rainbow), EDs and if the anime has those small recaps at the beginning I skip that too.
But I always make sure to check if there's some scene after the ending song when I skip it.

You know at the beginning of a lot of shounen anime, where they have the same monologue where a narrator explains something we already know because we have heard the same thing for 20+ eps

Yeah I usually skip that part

Sounds like a Naruto exclusive thread to me.

I skip some OP/EDs I don't like and recap scenes that are repetitive. I skip a whole episode if it's a full recap one. And rarely, but sometimes, I skip long explanations I don't understand. And most fillers in battle shounen shows.

I skip the OP and ED, but I watch everything else unless:

-There are long transformation sequences I've seen a dozen times before
or
-The show is really, really slow and I'm trying to skip to when something happens.

That last is extremely rare since I usually just speed up the playback in those instances, but even when I do skip, it's only to a couple of seconds ahead.

I also don't usually watch the preview clips, because 90% of the time I'm just going straight to the next episode, but I do look for after-credits scenes.

It is frowned upon to skip anything other than the OP/ED, recap episodes and fillers. You should just watch the whole thing and rate it lower if you were bored, that’s what the 1-10 rating system is for. Not every anime is as exciting as the next, unfortunately.

I mean, I don't think that a long explanation of a theory that I already know is relevant to whether or not I watch anime. Just because I skip something that I already know, doesn't mean that I don't like anime. Something like Boku no Hero academia. Those screenshots of the description of the hero are scenes are scenes that I skip because I already know what their quirk is and I don't think that anything on there impacts the anime itself. But I think that it's my fault for not mentioning that I rarely skip episodes; I don't skip everything.

This is facts, you've gotta watch the entirety of an episode (minus op/ed) to claim that you've actually watched it. Otherwise, what's the point of watching the series at all ?

I'll skip a recap, OP if it's not the best and ED every episode but the last .

I've been tempted to skip through an episode if it's boring and I don't care for the plot but I've never acted on those impulses.

Sometimes I press FF in some action sequences that are just becoming too boring to watch; I don't care about the process, I just care about the results.

Like in Code Geass for example; I found myself skipping all the mecha-combats, I just couldn't care less about them. Who won? Period, that's all I wanted to see and know.


Just what the fuck is wrong with you?

Rencently watched Kinaiver and my favourite part of the show was no doubt the OP and ED.

I personally feel like doing that ruins the experience, you gotta watch everything. I see many people saying they skip the OPs and EDs, those are some of the best parts. Looks like some people should consider if anime is really for them lol.

I have a friend who does that. Like he can skip entire episodes of an anime because they're "too boring" but then call it a 10/10 and i just can't relate to this. I always want the full experience so i can have a honest opinion so if i like an anime that i don't drop i'll watch everything even if it means giving it an 8 instead of a 9 or 10.

I usually never skip any seconds of episode 1 from every anime. To see whether I like the OP/ED or not. If I like it, I'll watch it. If not, then I'll definitely skip it. But I don't think I skip any seconds of the episode's story though..
