| Well I use anime to get myself otta reality and get happy and I bet I'll still be watching anime when I'm 18-19 , but after 24-25 maby I'll be into other stuff and drop anime BUT I HOPE IT DOESN'T HAPPEN AND I CONTINUE TO WATCH ANIME FOREVA AND EVA ! |
| If i find really interesting ones or if i get my own laptop either one. :P |
 |
| haha no |
| I would really like to continue watching anime, yes. It has become a hobby of mine, and I don't want to stop just yet. Of course I can't know what the future holds, but unless they stop making anime or I get bored I won't stop. |
 |
| I don't know. If I completely lose interest in it, I'll stop, otherwise, I'll keep watching when I find time to. |
 |
| I said yes. The better question is whether I'll have time to do so in the future. I'm guessing less and less. |
 |
| The answer is a resounding no. The phrase rest of your life seem to imply watching anime would be a regularly thing (weekly or daily). When I entered university it had already became uncommon and rare. I might watch some from time to time but I can't imagine myself going at it as if it was a weekly thing. Not even sure if I'll keep up with the community. MAL will close at some point and I just don't think I'll be moving to another to get some update of the current trends in the industry and whatnot. The world also is just too big to be sticking with the same hobbies since when I was a kid. |
| Hmm...either Maybe or No. Like some of the other (older) members mentioned, it really depends on what's interesting, as well as how much time they can allocate to watch said stuff. Ongoing trends in anime does seem to affect what I watch (school settings are becoming quite tiresome, but then again, I'm way out of the intended age bracket anyways). I've noticed that with each successive season, I've found relatively fewer and fewer series caught my interest. So there may be a point where I may lose interest entirely. Or, if/when I have a kid, I could end up showing him/her age appropriate anime (and with me watching along) and add a new member to the anime fandom. :D |
| Why not? I don't care if its animation or not, the stories are good. Its the same of watching films or series. |
     |
| It will be a long time before I feel like I've safely caught up with the good animes of the past and present. That being said, I don't really see any reason for me to stop watching unless something happens in the industry that affects the quality of the medium in general. While it is packed with moe slice of life's now, I do hope the gems of the other genres continue to be produced. As long as that happens, I doubt I will ever drop the medium. |
 |
| What about spending your eternity watching anime? Heaven would be filled with anime for me.. I mean my idea of heaven anyways.. Anime and hot chicks! |
| I'm sure I'll be watching anime as long as I can. It's a part of my childhood and young adulthood. It's always been a sort of gateway from reality for me. My mom says it's a phase and I'll grow out of it but I don't really believe it. Hobbies like that don't go away overnight. Heck, it even runs in the family! Haha. My uncle is in his forties and still watches anime, and even got his son into it as well. There may come a time I won't be into it AS much since I will have college, work, and adult life to deal with, but I think it will always be there. |
| "And now for something completely different!" "Life's all about figuring out how dumb you can be." -Lupin III |
| Watching anime & reading manga are the things I enjoy the most, so I voted yes. |
| Of course! I'm a hardcore anime fan for life!~ It's my favorite hobby that has lead me to meeting a lot of people I can relate to on many levels. I can't imagine my life without this hobby ;___; Of course, I have other interests, too, so it's not like I'm an otaku. But anime will always be my most important hobby <333 |
drinkbeer said: There is always rewatching, that's fun. And for all those people who don't think it's fun, I'm sure that there will be a memory machine that can wipe out your memories so you can watch your favorite anime over and over again keeping the feeling from the first time you watched it forever.i think the next question will be will there be enough anime for you to watch? (obviously i am referring to animes of your liking) |

| Umm yea, I can see myself watching all sorts of TV programs for long time. I am not afflicted by the animation age ghetto disease. |
 |
| Sure, why not? as long as it keeps me entertained and there are interesting stories being constantly produced... I don't really see how it's different than any other medium for stories and entertainment. As long as there's something interesting to me, then I'll watch it. No matter how old I may be or which artistic medium it uses. |

| Voted yes. Same way I'll keep watching movies, gaming, and drinking coffee. If it's satisfactory then that's that, nothing more to it. |
| I want to spend the rest of my life watching anime. I know that I will regret dying because I haven't completed all of my "plan to watch" anime. ღღღღღღღღღღღღღღღღღღღღ |
  |
| I don't imagine I will. Anime doesn't air on tv here except movies or kid's anime like Pokemon, and I don't imagine myself, when I'm married with kids, going onto the Internet to watch anime. As much as it sounds like a great thing to do, I imagine there will be a point in my life where it'll stop. |
 |
| Yeah... It's just a hobby. |
 |
| Giving up anime will be like giving up on my childhood. Its the only entertaiment that cheers me up. |
| I don't see what's wrong with being a parent or a professional and watching anime. My mum still watches cartoons and gets excited about comic books. So I don't think 'll stop. I do think that the point about the availability of anime that I like is most important. But I think I have a long way to go before I get to that point though. :D |
| As long as they keep making really good series then I'll keep watching. The pace at which I watch however will probably slow down quite a bit. |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| probably not the way i watch now. and who knows, what i like now, might be different than what i like in the near future. so my answer is no... |
"Either Die as a Hero... or live long enough to see yourself becoming the villain..." |
| Well I haven't watched in a while due to not being able to find any good ones, but I don't plan on stopping completely. |

| The question itself can be subjective as we will never know how it'll be in the next few years. Our taste may change or it may not. My parents were flower children who listened to the doors and hendrix in their teens. My dad still listens to them now and thinks greatly of them. If I had questioned him in his teens on whether he'd be listing to hippie music for all his life, his answer may have been yes the same way our answer to this thread is now. |
| Yes, and when I have kids I will show them anime too so hopefully my life will always have anime/manga involvement :3 |
| It's either I spend the rest of my life watching anime or making my own. :P |
| There are times in which I get lazy when it comes to catching up on episodes in an ongoing series and such - I think if I watch too much at once I get burned out. If I time everything nicely instead of watching say, twenty things at once (I don't know how people balance that), everything is good. Honestly? I'm sure I'll still watch anime as the years go on, no doubt about it. Will my preferences change? Maybe. But that doesn't mean I'll stop. It's the equivalent of watching a better form of TV, I think. |
| I wouldnt mind honestly, i think about it as if i was just another person, except I dont collect cards or play fantasy football, i watch anime. :) |
| I probably won't have enough time in the future :| |
| Going to keep watching anime until the nerve gear and a clone of SAO is invented. Then there goes my real social life. |
| i can watch anime forever..and it depends if either i have time for it or the anime is good |
| No because at some point I will have watched everything that's decent |
| Come visit my town // I apologize in advance for my second-rate English Join my fan club // Improve the transport network |
| Idk, probably would, but it would depend on the people and circumstances around me as time goes on. I can imagine just not having enough time. |
 If you really want to fit in, just put Legend of the Galactic Heroes in your top 5 and have it be the only 10-rated anime in your list. |
| My answer would be yes. This would be further strengthened if they made an AI KORA anime (I have been waiting since the manga ended D:) |
 |
PuppyFucker said: No because at some point I will have watched everything that's decent Based on the past few years, I've come to the conclusion that there are only about five-ten (ten being quite generous) non-obscure tv series worth watching per year. If you choose somewhat wisely (which I have not always done), getting to that point should not take very long. |
LoneWolf said: @Josh makes me sad to call myself Canadian. |
| Well as long as I'm physically able, I'll still watch anime regardless of age |
| So if i watch anime until am an old man and die it's synonymous with spending my life watching anime? I don't know the title makes it sound like your life would have been about watching anime and nothing else. Anyway, i don't see anyone saying i won't be watching TV or movies or sports until i die so why should anime be any different? It's just something you watch for pleasure in your free time. I just can't see why you should stop it if you like it. |
| I don't see why not, age should not be a factor here! |
