| What is everyone's opinions on people who have waifus? Do you find it cringeworthy? My honest opinion: I find a lot of people into waifus to be some of the most enjoyable people to chat with. A lot of times they seem to be easygoing and lighthearted, however maybe its just me finding the good crowd of people with waifus. I don't know, I've noticed a trend. People with kawaii waifus seem to be fun people. Your take, mal? |
 |
| Most people who have waifus must be introverts so they don't have much friends and they want to make friends who are familiar with anime/waifu culture. That's my opinion at least. |

I honestly think a lot of the haters of waifus seem to take it more seriously than people with waifus. Obviously, some go too far with it but some haters don't understand that some people with waifus are mostly doing it as a joke |
|
| I only dislike it when people act as if an anime without waifus isn't worth watching. |
| その目だれの目？ |
| Unironic waifuism is the worst thing. |
 |
| I take my waifu very seriously. the walls are lined with posters and cut outs of her. my bed sheets have her face printed on them. my shower curtain is of my waifu. even my carpet is the face of my waifu. i must always expand my collection. next target is the kitchen. the shrine in the corner of my room gets bigger as my collection of anime grows. |
 |
| i love waifu culture, people are passionate about their characters why not. cant say anything cuz i love waifus and husbandos lol, and yes i do take them very seriously. just don't be excessive and cringe. |

| I don't see a reason to look down on something someone else does. |
 |
| I watch anime for the waifus, but some people tend to overreact. I have a friend and he truly believes that his anime waifu is his actual waifu. He said that I was a cuck because I told him that I was shipping my "waifu" with the main character and I was afraid that they wouldn't end together. He wanted to kill me when I said that his waifu already had sex with a guy (I was just horsing around), he even blocked me on some social media for a while. |
| If you're a fanboy, please don't waste my time. Watch more movies, please. Perhaps, this is hell. |
| Honestly. . . it is a coping mechanism for lonely people, such as myself, to feel some sort of intimate connection to another person, albeit being an entirely one-sided connection/relationship. Waifu culture only becomes a problem when someone bases their whole personality off of it. |
| I hate it with all my heart but eh, is them liking the characters in their own way I guess. |
| I like it. It creates camaraderie between same waifu people . Watching people fight for the honour of their best girls is so fun. But being obsessed with it is bad kids. |

| I don't care, to each their own. Some people might seem obsessed over their waifu, often getting to a point where they get overdefensive and insult (or even threat) other people when they don't like her. That can feel a bit weird indeed, but I'm sure in most cases there's a reason for that. Whatever floats your boat, I won't judge someone over having a waifu obsession. Nothing wrong with having a waifu, imho. (Husbandos ftw though) |
  I will show no mercy for you You had no mercy for me The only thing that I ask Love me mercilessly |
| because we humans need to satisfy our lust lol. |

| There's nothing wrong with waifu culture, just don't take it too seriously. |
Armados said: I find the waifu culture utter garbage. I don't mind that people are attracted to fictional characters. I don't even care whether people find hentai appealing or not, nor do I care whether people imagine themselves being in a relationship with a fictional character. However, I do hate this culture precisely because anime authors just spam "waifus" in their franchises, in order to make them popular and make some easy money, without said "waifus" having a purpose other than cheaply create either fanservice, lure certain people into a series and so on. Very often female characters aren't written well in anime, are made precisely to appeal to some male audiences/female audiences, and people just randomly get hyped over lackluster creations just because "oh look there are plenty of waifus, fanservice, boobs, asses and thighs". This leads to a VERY VERY LOW standard for the average anime to maintain in order to be even mildly successful or popular, and that's annoying, as it pretty much dumbs down the medium as a whole. Look at Fate Grand Order, look at most shitty harems out there, look at even stuff such as Demon Slayer - so many people just run around scream how they find Nezuko adorable when she doesn't really exist as a character for like 99% of the series. Some people even claimed she is a great written character while she doesn't even have one, just because they are attracted to her design. While Darling in the Franxxx was shitty, look at how many people talk about 02 religiously. She isn't even a good character, yet people are attracted to her, and thus mention her quite regularly, and thus make the series far more popular than it deserves. Look at Steins;Gate, people act as if its like the best time traveling creation they had ever seen. First of all, the concepts of the entire series were just copied from an old internet troll who pretended to come from the future years ago when the internet was new (you can read about it, its mentioned quite a bit over the internet, it made alot of noise back in the old day until people managed to prove he is just trolling and more or less figured out who it really was - wasn't really a timetraveler, obviously), and then they slapped a harem with different routes to make it appealing to a certain group and thus people go with the "holy shit its the best thing ever" when its quite lackluster. Same could go for so many animes that people value precisely just because there are waifus in there. Who cares about the plot, whether the characters are developed or not, world building, past events, character motivations, what's the order of events and so on. If there are waifus, to many the series is great, and that's annoying, as future writers just take inspiration from said popular animes when they weren't even good to begin with, and thus continue the cycle. If the "waifu culture" wouldn't have harmed the quality of stories, I wouldn't have cared as much about that. Since people often replace a story with "haha look at all of the boobs/cute girls/etc", it feels like a horrible thing to have in its current form. This great comment summarise my thoughts. Hats off to you. |

| I am okay with ironic waifuism or using waifus as a joke but I pity the people who are un-ironically obsessed with an anime girl. I personally believe waifu's are for mentally challenged individual and they use it as a coping mechanism to deal with their loneliness and depression. I just can't think of any other reason why a grown ass man would be obsessed with an anime girl to the point of devoting their life to it and doing stupid shit like owning body pillows or fighting people online for berating their precious cartoon girl. And don't even get me started on those idiots who literally marry their waifus or that one guy who killed himself because he couldn't be with his waifu. I think most of these people need mental help and should consult a counselor or a psychiatrist as they are clearly not normal to be left roaming around in the real world. |

| "Waifu Culture" is pretty much dead. Most fans don't say they have a waifu or even a husbando anymore. |
| I have no opinion. Personally, I don't have a waifu or a husbando because I see characters I like as characters I like, not as people I can realistically have feelings for. That would be unrealistic and probably frustrating. That's me, but other people are not me. I don't really mind or judge or even think about people who do have anime/celebrity crushes. If they do, then it must serve a purpose for them and therefore it's valid. |
| Waifus sell character merch, which is good for supporting the industry. |

I actually like the story of Steins;Gate, but I do agree that certain characters only exist to fill a waifu quota. |

Armados said: Lucifrost said: I actually like the story of Steins;Gate, but I do agree that certain characters only exist to fill a waifu quota. People can enjoy anything, but Steins;Gate pretty much copied a troll from decades ago and branded the copied elements as their own. That's why it annoys me when people call the author a genius... I am not kidding, you can look everywhere for a person claiming to be john titor from the very old days of the internet and you'll see he talks about world war 3, the IBM computer, and so on. Steins;Gate pretty much stole everything (although the troll obviously didn't have and can't have copyrights for trolling other people over the internet so that's a gray area). Inspiration and/or referencing are entirely different things though... |

| If they're self aware of their hobby and don't project too much in to the character it's cool. I don't care for it and really dislike merch, so I'm not gonna build some altar for my fav character or make some imaginary wedding set up but each for their own. |
 |
| Kinda cringe if they're ultra serious about it. If someones like "I really like this character" its fine but if they're like "So me and my girlfriend Sakura fuck every night" then... you know... |

Well, not completely dead. But most people I know aren't interested in waifu culture. I think its on the decline. |

| it's not the reason i watch anime so I don't care for it. but if having one makes you enjoy anime more, then it's not like im going to tell you that you're enjoying it wrong |
| I said with a posed look |
Kagami said: I'd say it's just case of more people getting into anime and those personalities that would be prone to latching onto one thing carry on waifuism/husbandoism. These day's it has its own meme value but there're still people buying whatever merch just because of one character.Seijatachiiii said: Well, not completely dead.
