I'm not even sure if I have an answer. I'm not even sure if I'm degenerate. I wanna know what the crowd thinks about their own tastes.

Hmmm I don't think I'm a degenerate, but I guess if I were to pick a series I'd have to go with one that's about degenerates. Super Gals.

Knowing how to differentiate between fiction and reality is key.

There are a ton of anime out there where messed-up things are played just for gags or other socially unnaceptable behaviours take place as if they were nothing. Are you a degenerate for consuming such type of entertainment? Absolutely not, and it would be extremely stupid to think so; People in the past also had a dark sense of humor, they laughed at pretty messed things should they be presented as such to make them laugh. It's also agreed upon the general consensus that people of decades past tended to be more "moral" than people today are (according to the traditional definition of morality, at least), and consuming what today we would call "degenerate" didn't make them any less "moral". And why, you might ask? Very simple: they knew to separate fiction from reality.

Seeign anime where boys peek at girl's skirt, touch their boobs without their consent or generally behave pervertly towards them doesn't make you a degenerate. Believing those things are ok in reality because you saw it in anime does. Comedy where derived from situations that usually would be shunned or even prosecuted upon should they happen IRL works so well as it does precisely because the audience recognizes the absurdity of those situations beign shruged off as if they were nothing or even seeign them occur in the first place, that's exactly why they laugh at it, to begin with. And no, that doesn't make them "degenerates", it makes them normal human beigns with a very common sense of humor.

So, in short, yes, you can be a non-degenerate, well-adjusted and moral individual while also consuming the most messed-up anime you can find out there. As long as you know how to put those two things apart and recognize different rules apply for one another and how to act upon them, you should be fine.

When I was in high school, I secretly caught a few episodes of Sakura Diaries on cable TV (Locomotion channel), and a friend once lent me a burnt DVD of New Angel... this was years before I even started watching anime regularly.

I came into this already being a degenerate to begin with.

What do we mean by "degeneracy" in this context? Most people mention ecchi, I started watching anime with Fairy Tail so I guess from the very beginning. Shokugeki no Souma, Monster Musume and Monogatari series should have been my next anime from this tag. [if my memory isn't broken, tho I'm not sure when I watched Prison School on this timeline]

If not ecchi, then maybe hentai - I started watching hentai when I was like 12-13 [not really sure], got curious and well, it happened. [I clearly remember it was some Pokemon one XD]

Then maybe "degenarate" thoughts? I guess even earlier XD

I seriously think Baccano! was the one to push me over the cliff into insanity. Not that I blame it, because I would've eventually discovered something else to drive me insane if it wasn't for Baccano! anyway, but yeah. Baccano did it.

It's so chock-full of violence and depravity while making so much light of it all that you feel horrified and desensitized to it both at the same time. The characters and just about everything they say and do is INSANE. They're all psychotic freakshows that have so much fun murdering, stealing, and torturing people, yet the show itself makes them so lovable and endearing that you actually root for them despite that. You actually love them and laugh with them.

And then the shit with Czeslaw Meyer broke me. I still haven't seen a character I've felt worse for in all my years. When I saw his backstory I just couldn't believe it. I think if anything, that's what made me go crazy. Just seeing this literal child go through hell for no reason for two hundred years. To this very day, I haven't seen anything top how bad I feel for Czeslaw and I never will.

That's tough.

I mean the first anime character i remember simping for was Mai Valentine

But the first time i remember seeing fanservice was the original Dragon Ball. All those boob, butt and panty shots of Bulma really hit me hard.

But i think the first true gateway was HighSchool of The Dead as it was my first true ecchi and the first anime nudity i saw
My waifu is the most wonderful waifu. Mai Valentine.

We're freaking out that we're running out of time, but to do what? Should i stop and think of that? Is there something i could do to slow it down? Live in a day for once, instead of watch it sprinting by

Seeing as my early were things like SAO, Accel World, DN Angel, Shakugan no Shana, Clannad, Shuffle and more I think Trinity Seven probably was in like my first 10 or so.

Shokugeki no Souma around that time too I think. At least first 2 seasons I think.

Shimoneta as well. Some were airing anime, others go back to types.

Date A Live/Absolute Duo and High School DXD at certain point later. Around 2014/2015 my early stuff and I keep my old Word soc list and stopped updating it around 2017/2018 to MAL. I should update it but I don't have fhe best MAL dates listed so eh for accuracy there.

Others like Hybrid x Heart, Infinite Stratos and such too.

Even short forms ones like My Wife is the Student Council President/Okusama no Seitokaicou or so. The 8 minute ones with 2 season.

B dgata H Kei in there and yes I read all 300 chapters after some time so that was something.

Mysterious Girlfriend X and no, no saliva fetish but it's a good animal still.

Seen all sorts of odd ecchi over the years with interesting dynamics.

Seen plenty of action, romcoms, drama, comedy, odd isekai then prefer reverse ones.

Seen odd harems, reverse ones, odd Yuri and so on.

I stick to romcoms, dramas and more these days.

Action is ok but more so series I already liked. I am not one for only everyday settings some sci-fi and fantasy vary of what they do that I just don't always care. I do more for video games then I do anime. But live action it varies what it is too.

My first Hentai on accident was Skirt no Naka Kedamono Deshita. Otherwise borderline ones like Those Science Thives/Kagaku no Yatsura, Aki Sora and some others can't right now.

Grisaia's and Testament of a Sister New Devil OVAs were good.....

Thr first Hentai I actually delved into was Pretty x Cation. That was around 2022 or 2023 and branched off since.

I got to ecchi ones a fair amount more so over the years.

Ecchi is fair to see what lengths they go, how they tie it in. Some are trash no doubt but still some have a good idea/execution it just varies.

Like good comedies or drama some good ecchi jokes count too.

I used to get worked up by an advertisement for Excel Saga in some gaming magazine back in the day featuring a big picture of Excel. I'm sure that had far reaching consequences when I became a teenager.

Degeneracy as in "This show is degenerate as all hell and I love every minute of it"? Probably Urotsukidouji or Genocyber.

Degenerate as in this anime pushed me into being a degenerate anime watcher. Akira easily

I always talk how the visuals of Sora no Otoshimono Forte brought me to anime, even though I never watched it.
So likely High School DxD then.
