Now that we're in wasteland season #3 in a row I kind of have twinges. But then I remember I have a big backlog, and it's K.

I never regret becoming a fan of anime.

Anime has done so much for me, it's kept me going when my life was at it's absolute worse and I've met some amazing people through being a fan of anime and going to conventions.

I honestly couldn't care less about what people think of my hobby. I know I love my wall scrolls, figures, manga collection, and cosplay. Having someone say it's lame, I say, has never watched anime before. And honestly, I also just don't care.

Besides meeting real people through anime, I also have met some amazing characters. Hearing their stories and learning from them again-- might sound lame to some people, but to me I feel like by watching their stories it has made me a better person. I've learned so much from people who aren't even real.

Nope. Just a fun hobby. I don't have anything in my belongings indicating I'm an anime fan, but I talk about/reference it freely with my friends who also watch anime. If with people who don't, I'm not afraid to bring it up.
Hey there! If you'd like to talk about anime or anything else feel free to drop a comment on my page or DM me. I'd be glad to have a conversation and make some new friends :)

I don't regret how much anime I watch or the fact I got into anime at all. What I regret is how much time I waste playing video games.

Nah. I enjoy watching anime from time to time.

And besides, life is too short to care about what judgmental & close-minded people think of you simply because you enjoy watching japanese cartoons. They're not worth your time.

I regret really getting into it at a young age. Now I can't find anyone my age who has watched a decent amount. Not that I hate it, but it's boring talking about Shounen all the time.

But I don't regret being a fan. I love the community(even though it's full of retards)

My family and friends accept it. Granted the kids in my middle school didn't but fuck them.

I do wonder if anime has caused me to pass on certain opportunities, especially with it being such a time sink but. Who cares.

How people around you think of you when they see you talk anime, watch anime, see your figures, merchs, manga, blu-rays collection?

Is being an anime fan make your life harder?

Is anime a mistake?

My only regret is not becoming an anime fan sooner. I picked it up in high-school, which is a lot nicer than finding it as an adult or even during college. I was able to watch a lot of shows even while keeping up on my homework or other responsibilities. Even so, I wish I had found it as a kid (outside of pokemon, beyblade & digimon and the like) or even as a middle-schooler, when I would have been able to watch so much anime all the time. Granted, I doubt I would've found MAL any earlier than I did, so there goes any sort of organizational system I might've had, as well as even knowing what seasonal anime was.

I don't think you should ever regret doing something you enjoy. As long as it isn't hurting anyone else.

To answer the question, though, I suppose I do feel sorta weird talking about anime to anyone who I don't know is a fan of it or not, if only for the pervading stereotypes about the medium.

Also it has made my life harder. I'm constantly spending so much time with it because I love it more than any of my other hobbies.

I've become friends with people with whom I might've never had a shared topic. Because of anime, we have something to talk about and we have our excuse to hang out.
If someone dislikes you because you like anime, that's their problem. People aren't defined by their tastes in any media, but in how they act.
Of course, there is always that one person who won't stop yelling JoJo references in the middle of class. Or someone who knows one anime meme and likes to say it every time they get the chance. That doesn't make them bad people, just very fucking annoying.

No, why should I regret any of my hobbies? I'm not doing anything illegal or unethical, I don't hurt anyone watching it. If people have a problem with it then so be it. The only thing I don't like is people who know I watch anime and can't resist bringing up hentai whenever anime is brought up but that's just a minor inconvenience.

second regret is thinking that anything from 4kidz was proper anime.
