| As in, if a friend said "this anime is so stupid, it made me feel dumber just from watching the first few minutes. No, this anime LOWERED the world's average IQ just by existing. It's that bad." Would you watch it just to see how bad it was? |
| HELL YEAH! That's why I watched Mars of Destruction! |
  |
| Isnt that the point of excel saga? |
 |
| i have, hell yesterday i went into a bet and lost and had to watch eiken, hotd, and ikki tousen, it was the worst 2 days of my freaking life, i actually lost IQ points and i think it made me turn a little gay because of it. plus ive watched mars of destruction cause i wanted to see how bad it was, glad i did had a great laugh |

Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me |
| Mars of destruction Eiken And I will probably try Apocalypse Zero soon. These things have some weird charm in them. |
| Bad anime makes you appreciate the good stuff even more. So, yes, I have from time to time went out of my way to watch crap. |

| usually things like that will pique my curiousity, so yeah I'll try 'em out for a little bit. however, had I known Mars of Destruction would be THAT BAD, I would not have watched it. i went in expecting a few good laughs and came up empty. i'll give Skelter Heaven a shot though. |
     |
| I would see how far I could get on that anime and then drop it when its finally reached that level of retardedness. This happened with School Days since I knew how it ended already anyway and just wanted to see what led up to that event. I couldn't get pass episode 6. |
     |
| Well at the time I watched Mars of Destruction I figured that I'd given out too many 8s and 9s. I then sought to balance out my score and after the deed my mean score dropped like a rock. I'm pretty strict about sequels unless it really does the job correctly which is why stuff like Kuroshitsuji II or Tekkaman Blade II are much lower than the prequel. Besides, I don't really go out of my to watch crap, it just happens. |
| What do you think you're piloting? Great Mazinger? Dangaioh? For Pete's sake, this isn't some robot cartoon whose main character is an autistic kid or some punk. - Kiichi Goto, Mobile Police Patlabor |
| probably not, cringing is not something I like to do when I want to be entertained. Maybe if it was associated to something that I like, but even then I doubt it. |
 |
| If I found it out to be so bad, I wouldn't watch it. But if someone else said that, I could watch it just to check out, because I'm a master at liking games/animes a lot of people don't like and vice versa. |
| 「レミ咲が今日のティータイム。」- RemiSaku ga kyou no tea time! |
| Yeah especially if it's short like an OVA. |
| Zero No Tsukaima, ill love it no matter how much you hate it anyway. |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| Yeah like Naruto, Death Note, Bleach, and Gundam AGE just so I can bash them. |
| I do and it's sometimes entertaining. I laugh so hard at how bad anime can be. I laugh hard at the 'trolls' and the cliche plots. I laugh hard at the blatant deus ex machina moments. Sometimes, the only thing going for a bad anime is the visuals or a specific character that I like. |

 |
| I would watch it if its extremely bad!! |

| Only if it's really short, like Mars of Destruction. No point subjecting myself to something bad if it's longer than that. |
| if it is fanservice then yes |
| of course. dont know about everyone else but i tend to watch several series at once. a couple of highly ranked ones and a few shitty ones to balance it out =D |
 hey hey, do you have smoked cheeze? Nyoro~n |
| Yep. It makes everything else look better by comparison and can sometimes be funny as hell. |
| I did that with the first few episodes of Guilty Crown. |
| Opinions may differ for certain people so yes, yes I would indeed check out an Anime my friend said sucked. |
 |
OriginANIME said: Opinions may differ for certain people so yes, yes I would indeed check out an Anime my friend said sucked. Well it isn't really about *possible* differing opinions but actually watching a show that you know is bad or going to be bad but you still watch it. |
|
| Actually I'm planning to watch the infamous Mars of Destruction just to see how bad it actually is |
 |
| I almost considered watching Mars of Destruction because of curiosity, but now I can't be bothered... Rather watch good stuff :) |
| Nothing is good or bad until you have seen it. Thus, it's impossible to intentionally watch a bad anime. Having a friend saying it's bad, or seeing its bad ratings doesn't make it actually bad. |
| Well, I watched Mars of Destruction out of curiosity, it was really the worst anime I've ever seen xD |
| Mars of Destruction lol |
| Yeah, that's the reason why I watched Togainu no Chi and Mars of Destruction. They're both hilariously bad. |
 |

| I would watch it, I plan to watch Mars of Destruction too. :) |
 |
dfsafsaf said: Yeah, watched Mars of Destruction and Tenkuu Danzato Skelter Heaven because of that which are from the same studio. Tenkuu Danzato Skelter Heaven is much worse than Mars of Destruction in my opinion :D To this day, I still can't decide which one is the worst. I swear I felt my brain cells dying as I watched Skelter Heaven. |
insan3soldiern said: Bad anime makes you appreciate the good stuff even more. So, yes, I have from time to time went out of my way to watch crap. I second that. D: |
| It's my hobby to watch animes that are bad. The worst they are the more I want to watch them just because I'm curious. |
| No, if I know it's bad, I wouldn't waste my money. |
| RYOJI KAJI [to Shinji] So, I understand you're living with Katsuragi. SHINJI IKARI Uh, yeah... RYOJI KAJI So, is she still so... wild in bed? |

Having a friend saying it's bad, or seeing its bad ratings doesn't make it actually bad. And yet here we are using resources like reviews, word of mouth, and overall reception from possibly like minded fans in order to come to the conclusion that some anime are bad and then watching them anyway just to see how bad is bad. |
|
| Sure. Sometimes a bad anime trying to be serious is funnier than a good anime trying to be comedic. |
 |
| Yes, if it looks hilarious. Or occasionally just to annoy myself, because face-palming and wanting to scream at the monitor is a much bigger emotional response than most decent shows get out of me. But I'm not really buying this "watch the bad to appreciate the good" thing. I think if I intentionally lowered my standards, I'd just forget to nitpick the shows that actually stand the test. |
| Yes, I have. I've also recently decided to finish some of the shows I hate. |
Tiago97 said: Why? Do you need closure that bad?Yes, I have. I've also recently decided to finish some of the shows I hate. |
| If it's like 2/3 episodes only, then yeah, sure. |
 |
| I would only watch it to see what its about. |
