| As in, not streaming in 360p. I'm watching Ergo Proxy right now and it's just impossible to watch in bad quality with all the dark, actiony scenes. |
| I download in 1080 for series with nice art. otherwise i go for quicker downloads. |
| Fate/Zero and 5CM Per Second off the top of my head. Just total eyegasm art. |

I can't even remember much of whats on there so my list is lacking. I'd have to plug it in. the new one is 2T. Now i don't sweat it! Sorry i skirted the question. yah, if the art is not great i go for 720. |
| I tend to watch shows in the best quality I can, which is 720p because none of my monitors can handle 1080p. The only exception is ongoing series. I can't be arsed downloading every episode and ordering them in the right files, so I stream them. My only regret is streaming Hyouka, but I can't help it. I have a tight bandwidth. |

| Eden of the East... It would be a sin to watch it in anything less the 720p -1080p. |
| 360 is good most of the time... |
| End Zionazism |
| Prefer to watch my movies in 1080p. Everything else in 720p and older series in 480p or under if 720p not available. A good example? Redline. |
| Fate zero, durarara, Kara no kyoukai, princess mononoke and Yosuga no Sora. |

| I watch everything in 720p because my laptop screen only has a resolution of 1366x768, so I see no point in downloading 1080p. As for shows that I would never be able to watch streaming (though I never stream anyway), I'd say AKB0048, Accel World, and Tsuritama. That's all I can think of off the top of my head. |

toybox said: Years of streaming have conditioned my eyes. You guys are all scrubs. Yeah. I've streamed for six years or so and never had any problems with it... Except now. I even watched F/Z and Kara no Kyoukai in 360p and didn't think any of it. |

| I stream animes that I don't really want to download right away. I watch animes I like at 720p, with SAO as an exception, it's in 1080p. Then I just download 1080p BDrips when all volumes are out. |
| Madoka Magica Hyouka SAO AKB0048 Another Guilty Crown Dusk Maiden of Amnesia Anything like that with really good production values. If it's something like Kimi to Boku or Natsuyuki Rendezvous, it probably won't matter if it's slightly blocky, but anything with tons of color or even small color but great detail and 'shine,' it's almost impossible to sit through in low quality. I personally don't like watching ANYTHING in low quality, so i'm glad people upload most Anime in close to perfect high-definition quality for streaming. |
Paul said: I pretty much do this myself. Movies generally have higher animation quality than series (Heartcatch Precure is a good example. The animation quality in the movie is noticably better than the TV series, not that the TV series looks bad or anything. There's better-looking movies than that of course, I'm just making a direct comparison between a TV series and its movie side-story), hence why I prefer 1080p for those.Prefer to watch my movies in 1080p. Everything else in 720p and older series in 480p or under if 720p not available. A good example? Redline. 720p works fine for most things I watch in fullscreen, but if a series isn't in 720p, then I just get a lower quality version so that I can still watch it. Video quality doesn't matter nearly as much with old-school anime (pre-1990, not counting movies) anyway |

| 5 Centimeter's per second FMA Brotherhood Evangelion Rebuild's |
| REDLINE |
| all anime if possible. no anime deserved to be watched in poor quality. you want to enjoy as much as u can right? |
Allah said: REDLINE I SECOND THIS. If you haven't seen Redline in 1080p, you haven't seen it at all. Ah yea and Kara no Kyoukai and Fate/Zero of course... |
 |
| I just do everything in 480 lmao |
 |
| i can't watch anything higher than 480p because of my pc and it's kinda hard to find since everything now goes 720p and higher but I'm watching fate zero in 480p and it's still amazing |
 |
| I watch everything in 480 usually. I can't stand anything lower than that and I don't like to have huge ass files either so 480p's perfect for me. :) |

|
| I always stream. It works fine for me. I'm not going to waste my time downloading anime unless I have to. |
| If it's available streaming legally through crunchyroll or something I'll stream. Other wise I'll download it in 720 mp4 so I can stream it directly to my xbox and watch it on the TV. |

| I'm dead. Don't come looking for me. |
| I stream everything in 720p or 1080p so anything lower than 720p I'm not watching. |

I usually go for 480p. But anything made by Shaft or Kyoani I'll try to go higher. The only thing I've downloaded in 1080p is the K-On! Movie. And it looks amazing. It really helps drive in the sense of atmosphere. I also bought the Australian Blu-rays for Madoka Magica and while it looks amazing I wouldn't say that it's 100% necessary |

| Nanoha movie (can't miss the Starlight Breaker at the end) Rebuild of Evangelion Fate/Zero Any action series in general Slice of Life anime can get 480p. I mean, seriously, do you really need to watch cute girls do cute things in 1080p? |
| I watch everything in 720p, unless the anime doesnt have 720p. |
| TV quality anime in 720, there is no reason to watch it anything higher, you're just wasting space. 1080 for Movie quality or Blu-ray Releases. |
| It doesn't think, it doesn't feel, it doesn't laugh or cry..... All it does from dusk till dawn is make the soldiers die. |
