I'm obviously countering the other thread, with all the love and passion.

Surely, there is this user, you click on its profile, you look at the favorites and you see over 30% affinity.

Or there is that user, you absolutely love some of his forum posts, and you agree most of the time with them.

Or maybe, they're just your IRL friends, and you don't need ANONs.


For me, as long as someone enjoys their stuff, or enjoys cute things, it's usually a green light. Some people also have fun originality, so I guess it's also a way to pave friendship.

Fellow ecchi and loli enjoyers. I respect when someone can form their own opinions rather than relying on an arbitrary number to decide what to watch.

From experience, people that like mahou shoujo and/or kids anime are usually pretty chill. If I see someone with at least one of those in their favorites I take that as a good sign

All those who take the proverb "live & let live" to heart are my favorite kind of people.

I feel part of the wolfpack around my fellow battleshonen tards, ecchi lovers, isekai trash collectors, loli protectors, fan service connoisseurs & waifu harem collectors (pure for fun).

Lastly I also like those who are not part of the wolfpack for expanding my horizon into trying different stuff I would never try out. Sometimes it's a huge hit, other times a big miss, but like another favorite proverb of mine says "Variety is the spice of life".

Shout out to all those with great taste in music.

Those who, despite having different in what types of anime we like to consume, don't go out of their way to let me down just for that. And recognizes not only that people can have different tastes and that's completely fine, but both our types of animes can coexist together and don't have to be hostile to one another despite our differences.

I love some of these OG-MaL guys who're always first in the Anime-Discussions. They seem to be pretty based.

No phony News Cast. New attention seeking. No creating "What's your favorite Loli-Bikini-Scene" Polls. No bullshit.
Just laid back Anime Talk.

The old guy that I don't know but probably uses this forum who sits on the bus beside me pretending to read a newspaper but inside lies a bent, falling a part original manga of Card Captor Sakura that's been read 100 times. I sit beside him in my no game no life T-shirt, and my Tamagotchi that I've kept alive since 98', trying to glance at what chapter he's on while snorting out loud looking at his expression. The entire bus of people shuffling and leaning slightly away from us.

If you're here bro I get you. Much love.

Funnily enough, I do like fans with a lot of cute girls on their profile. Even more so if they actually dress cute with the elaborate hair decorations and frilly miniskirts in real life. From my experience, that's often the sign of someone that's friendly and approachable.

I also like anime fans who are worldly, which often intersects with fans of, say, foreign films in general. Give me a person who's only seen 10 anime, but who can give a well informed summary of how it reflects real world history over someone who's seen 1000 anime, but only whines about so-called tourists. Heck, a lot of my real life friends are only tangentially into anime these days because they have other, more prominent interests and life commitments, but we have good conversations.

Also positive: anime fans who create things, or who go on to use it as inspiration for their original work. This includes fan artists, idol dancers, singers, panelists, etc. It takes a special kind of person truly passionate enough to express it through art, as that kind of thing isn't easy. And as a fellow singer, that helps us connect on a personal level.

There's a certain irony that a lot of the anime fans I enjoy being around are people I like for reasons other than anime, but that's how social interaction is.

People who come up with interesting threads here that encourage discussion and show me things and perspectives I haven't thought about before.

People who are willing to engage and consider what the other person's saying, even if they don't change their minds in the end.

People who watch and enjoy a wide range of anime, as well as a lot of non-anime stuff.

People who respect other's opinions no matter how much they disagree with them, acknowledge that taste is subjective (that includes all of anime, characters as well as one's preferred language of watching) and are in general, just easy to converse with (no condescending or overly aggressive tone).

I like open-minded anime fans, and anime fans that analyze what they've watched. I like people who make theories on the lore of the world, or what they predict to happen next. I like people who are willing to at least try something, before calling it bad.

I also love people who watch more than Shounen and Seinen. People who have watched anime released before the 80s. People who watch more than anime, and people who watch shows outside of East Asia and Western countries. Basically, I love variety.

I love people who have watched a lot of anime and can give recommendations to me. Same with manga.

I like people who watch stuff that is a little more random/obscure and not just what's the most popular and talked about. So if someone mentions they like a show from 2007 that's not even popular anymore, I usually automatically like them lol

The type who has a memory span going past 3 seasons ago, doesn't think of pre-2010s productions as technically and narratively obsolete, isn't bound by any genre in particular and is overall driven by intellectual curiosity rather than waifuism or shipping characters. In other words, a specie in the way of extinction.

@gupipy

I am about to watch some more episodes of "Porphy no Nagai Tabi". Sure, it's from to 2008 and it has a leisurely pace, but it's a solid late World Masterpiece Theater entry. And very obscure, since it wasn't ever covered until Licca-fansubs gave it attention. I wonder if you'd like it, as well.
You're the good type of fellow I wish was more present among the fandom.

The creatives. Those that make fanarts, fanfics and other fanworks in general. I admire their passion, creativity and their skills. And they make the experience of being a fan more enjoyable.

And a shout-out to those that contribute to databases and wiki. They are unsung heroes.

-People who criticize their favorite animanga (it's important you are also critical of the fiction you like)
-Just generally chill anime fans that are fun to talk to
-People who don't judge harem/ecchi fans (I don't even like those genres but not all harem/ecchi fans are weirdos)
-Creators who use anime as inspirations for their works (for example: Jorge Rivera Herrans took anime influence for EPIC: The Musical)
-In general, those who don't shit on you for your tastes
-Theorists (they're fun to talk to, as long as those theories aren't total BS that is)
-People who recommend not so popular animanga (not saying it's a bad thing to only like the popular ones though)
-Those who don't judge pirates (I understand why one would be against pirating, but there are understandable reasons why people pirate as well)
-Fans who don't gatekeep animanga (fuck gatekeeping)
-Bleach fans (they're usually hella chill, one of the best fandoms I've been in. Though I'm not saying it's a bad thing to not be a Bleach fan)

@gupipy

I just finished one of those 2 weeks ago that I'll recommend to you. It has some flaws so I understand why people dislike it but: Xam'd Lost Memories. It's from 2008.

I like anime fans who are accepting of other people's taste in anime. I also appreciate those who acknowledge anime for the fictional medium that is and have fun with it rather than taking anything in it too seriously (sexualization, realism of characters and situations, etc.).
