| What's the dumbest reason you started watching a show? Bonus points if it ended up being a favorite I started watching Gurren Lagann because I thought Kamina was hot and Utena because gay. |

| I watched Euphoria after getting in a really bad fight with my little sister. I went temporary depressed NEET mode and locked myself in my room all day to watch hentai. I watched Boku no Pico on fucking Valentine's Day and skipped school at the same time (a decision that caused the downfall of my grades made me regret my very existence.). To compensate for those two sad stories, here are two happier ones. After finishing Fullmetal Alchemist:Brotherhood, I was left empty and wanting to watch something that would fill the void I created for myself. Then I searched online for "anime to watch after seeing Fullmetal Alchemist". Guess what the internet recommended me... Sword Art Online. XD!!!! Wasn't as bad as everyone says though. I watched Free! as soon as I saw this gif: My inner fujoshi instincts were awakened upon laying eyes on that very gif and I simply had to watch that anime. lol. |

| Highschool DxD,watched for the tits. |
| I'm a simple being. I see anime tiddies on the cover and I click.. \(=.=)/ |
| I recently picked up Highschool DxD because the main character was labeled "Harem King." So far worth it as I finally found a harem protagonist who isn't a pansy. |
 |
| i watched maoyira?? ?? mayora? mayoiga bcuz of memes edit: it's mayoiga |
| I most likely have watched many things because they contained a hot chick on the cover, not always the greatest decision.... |
| "Laws exist only for those who cannot live without clinging onto them." -Souske Aizen "Bleach"  |
| I tried to watch Loveless because a girl told me it was amazing. Spoiler warning: It wasn't. |
"Most anime makers are basically autistic" - Hideaki Anno |
| It doesn't apply to any of my favorites, but seeing on out of context gif is pretty much the basis for why I've watched a lot of shows. |
| "Those tits are fucking stupid" -Me, reacting to a GIF of Eiken and then watching it. One of the biggest mistakes I've ever made. |
| "No, son, you may not have your body pillow at the dinner table!" |
| A MAL user: "(Insert Anime title here) is the worst anime ever made!" Me: "It is? I should go watch it then." |
 |
| I watched Mob Psycho 100 because someone sent me a screenshot of a character’s fucked up hair. It got me into anime though lmao. |

| The dumbest reason... probably the cover photo of it on MAL lmao.. |
 Three things cannot be long hidden.. ...the s u n, the m oo n, and the tr u th. |

|
if anything... the dumbest reason to watch something for me is "everyone else is watching it" well.. im not everyone else ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ |
|
| If I remember correctly I watched To LOVE Ru because I liked Haruka Tomatsu's voice as Asuna in SAO and I wanted to watch another show with the same voice Reypablo1998 said: Well i watched say i love you because my girlfriend left me so i wanted to watch something romantic. that's just 2meirel4meirl for real feelsbadman |
 'On-Hold' is another way for a completionist to say 'Dropped' |

| Totally started watching Prison School bc i saw a poster of Meiko Shiraki (vp of the club) & yeah i can honestly say I Do Not regret it. |
| Haikyuu cause i though it was gay, want to prove me wrong, GUESS IM WRONG. |
| I watched many seasonal shows on a regular basis because nothing else was airing on that day. Like if I'd already decided on a list that happens to not have anime air on that day, I'll pick one up just because. |
| I'm not a lolicon, you're just projecting your tendency to lewd 2D characters. If your favourite character is Tsutsukakushi Tsukiko, you are my soul mate. Been a long time since I've been here, I'll continue expressing myself freely and believe everyone should too. My MAL Interview |
| I watched Kantai Collection because of all the hentai doujins it had. |
 |
| watched HOTD bc i saw a gif of That One Scene and i needed context after i stopped wheezing made about as much sense as i expected i guess |
| Yosuga no sora watched cause my friend fapped to it |
  |
| Watched Jormungand and Galko-chan because I thought Valmet and Galko were hot, respectively. In the end, I didn't really like the animes. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Watched Death Parade just because of the opening. |

| I think it's better why a user continue to watched the anime, but I guess we can ignore that and go with OP instead... Just thinking about why I watched SEL is one of the most nerve wrecking shit I wouldn't even know... Fuck! I even don't understand a single bit in that series! |
| Watched Boku no Pico back in 2011 because I didn't get that is was a troll recommendation at the time. I'm not a homophobe, so, the joke kinda failed. |

| Took the word of a casual because they were a mate, Re:Zero wasn't great at all |
SomeEdgeLord said: I WILL report you from this forum if this continues. In real life, I am one of the coldest, unsympathetic, people you'll ever know, who's grown up in an even colder household, you really don't want me to break my persona, I know how to make people feel bad. YearnsforAttention said: hm who has 1656 friends on MAL that's right me bye bye YearnsforAttention said: I don't want your approval how many damn times do I need to say it I enjoy irritating you I am gonna do things MY way |
NoobAsian said: Took the word of a casual because they were a mate, Re:Zero wasn't great at all I get this, my brother practically begged me to watch rezero and I really wanted to like it but its just so bland, dunno what makes it so different from all the other isekais out there It's okay, but seriously overhyped imo |
|
| I watched Kyousou Giga because the picture it has on Crunchyroll reminded me of Flip Flappers. I've watched it some 3-4 times and counting since then. |
 |
| All of the animes i gave shit ratings, so that I could be sure that they're shit. |
| Be thankful for the wisdom granted to you. |
| Log Horizon because I like glasses... Maybe... A little too much... |
| I watched Igano Kabamaru cause I felt guilty I hadn't seen much 80s anime. |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| I watched touken ranbu mostly because of the bishounens. |
  |
| One of the yt channels I'm subscribed to once made a meme mashup with the diebuster op so i watched both gunbuster and diebuster. They didn't end up in my favorites, but i'm really thankful to a meme now. |
| Stumble upon a song cover of 'Summertime Record' on Soundcloud, felt really grateful for it. |
MastxadowX said: Highschool DxD,watched for the tits. Same reason why I tried to watch a lot of ecchi animes. |
 |
| I watched anime because I thought Sagiri had a nice jacket...I made a mistake :/ Then again, I've done that with other anime I wasn't too hot on. |
| I watched Saekano because it's characters had some really beaultiful figures. And I liked it so I'm probably going to buy at least one (maybe some?) Saekano figure(s) in the near future. |
