Forcing myself through ReZero S1 was pretty painful. I kept thinking there has to be a reason people like this show so much but I cant stand Subaru it was one of my worst anime experiences getting through it all. I can normally watch a 2 cour season in one day. ReZero took me several week tog et through. I feel stupid for forcing myself now but at the time I kept thinking it would get better how could it be rated so high if it stays this stupid....etc

Oh boy, can't begin to explain how much I relate to this. Never understood what people saw in this show that I can't see. It's not bad in any way but given the hype encompassing it, anyone would guess this show is really something else. All I ever see is the LN readers bragging about how the anime only gets better but with the way it's going, I'm not all that intrigued anymore.

Choosing Darling in the FranXX as my introduction to the anime world. Every now and then when I mention DitFranXX on a thread like "what's your favorite anime?" Or "rate the person's anime taste above you" or something like that, I got bashed with hate.

When you're about to search up the name of a character you like but haven't finished the series yet and google autofills with the word "death" right after their name.

You're not really wrong there. FranXX is a great anime, one of my first as well. If it wasn't for the latter half messing things up, it could have been more accepted than in our timeline now.

At one point in my early anime watching days, I thought action/shounen was the best thing in the medium, and I poked fun at anything not under the categories. True story. Good thing I’ve since long moved on from that.

Care too much about MAL scores when discussing it in Anime Discussions.

Sometimes, I was more concerned that the higher scores on here for popular anime were astroturfed, where as if I had a legitimate explanation for liking/not liking an anime, it was shut down.

One of my biggest mistakes was looking up an anime character on google and immediately seeing the word death next to their name in the autofill section.

Back when I hadn't started playing the Danganronpa games but was in the middle of watching the anime, I was enjoying it and decided I wanted to check out some pics of my favorite character, typed their name in Google and instant fill had "*insert character* death".

Thanks, Google.

Searching up a series or a character for some fan/official art and then finding ''death'' written next to it. :))))))

Watching aot's first season in 360p on my small iphone 4 screen. I rewatched it last year though. It's great.

Yeah . . . Soo I watched Noragami Aragoto before Noragami. I was a bit confused but It didn't bother me very much. It wasn't until some months after that I found out that Noragami is a thing.
