Are you ever too old to watch anime?
Do you plan to be watching seasonal harem slop when you're in your 60s?

Yes

I'm 33. When I first found bittorrent in 2006, my family was poor. I could not go to cons. the year afterwards, our house got foreclosed and I quit anime to focus on school. 20 years later, I have money now, and can buy stupid shit. I watch more anime than ever to make up for lost time. It's sad though. Even though I was part of anime culture in 2006, I could never experience it properly.

poor, alone, and despairing is the proper way to experience anime

Yeah, obviously.
I'll be arguing the superiority of subs over dubs well into my 90s, to all the other nursing home faggots.

Might seem strange to you, but some anons actually enjoy watching anime.
>>
>>289860661
5cm/s is the best makoto shinkai movie though. and yes i realize that's like saying it's the most clean turd out of a pile of shit, but i think it actually holds up surprisingly well.

Has enough time passed to admit that being contrarian is a retard's game and that these are indeed the peak of anime

5cm/s was very well liked at the time before Shinkai hit maximum normalfag appeal with Your Name and anons had to start being contrarian and say they don't like his stuff in retaliation.

That's true but everyone knows /a/ has always had shit taste. Unlike me who wisely hated Shinkai when he was still niche

From what I understand, the majority of fans from the 90s who called it Japanimation largely stopped watching in the 2000s and have seen less than 100 full tv anime to this day. That's why we see so much people who are jaded. They thought anime was mostly violent cartoons in the 90s.

Only woman would think so.
>Do you plan to be watching seasonal harem slop when you're in your 60s?
If I like it, why not? My father was recording Dragon Ball and Dr. Slump on VHS when it was aired in TV so we could watch it together once I came back from school. Recently I was checking multiple local fansubs versions for Frieren to pick the best one so in the future I could watch it with my kids before they learn english. I want to build little library with local subs to enjoy it with kids like my father enjoyed it with me. Thoguh first I need to find woman who would give birth to these kids and my prospects don't look good.

This is true at least for myself, you cannot relate to characters if you're not down in the dumps, if you do not have at least one auto immune disease, if hunger doesn't eat you up every day. If you don't have recurring psychotic breakdowns what are you even doing? Sitting your lazy well fed fat ass on the couch and watching something while your mind is drifting and surfing, boring yourself to death while your body is fighting off all the blood sugar, fat and protein from clogging up your arteries.
There is someone out there, someone who's on a carton of acid, chainsmoking, overcaffeinated, who has not put any food in their mouth for at least a couple of days. Dissecting layers of irony, satire, allegories, metaphors, superimposing their own memories and experiences, juxtaposing make-believe realities and outcomes against each other. Testing the limits of their tendons and neurons for the greater good of understanding, chasing wisdom, destroying and reconstituting worries, anxieties, problems, faults. Peril is power, weakness in strength, the death of time is approaching.

Past a certain age, Anime set in a HS becomes unappealing so probably, I think we subconsciously use media as a tool to understand the world, so there would be a point to where 99% of anime is unrelatable, and provides nothing novel. At that point, you'd probably lose interest, like many of those anime reviewers on youtube do, in their late 20s
>Do you plan to be watching seasonal harem slop when you're in your 60s?
I'm in my mid 20s but I'm too shy to watch romance anime
>>
>>289868421
I didn't factor in sharing things you liked in the strength of your youth with your children and grandchildren like >>289866703

>>289858858
>Do you plan to be watching seasonal harem slop when you're in your 60s?
Yes, I'll even post my interpretations of the characters and based on their actions why one girl will win and the other won't.

But that's how every good story starts, we lost everything, my best friend hung himself, my sister died and so on and so forth. That's just how it is. You're going to lose everything when you die either way so it's just like an overture, hey don't get too carried away everything comes and goes just like that.

>>289858858
When I die I'll have a lot of regrets, but watching anime probably won't be one of them

When you get dementia you can watch your favorite anime for the first time over and over again.

I’m gonna be watching anime until I’m senile or dead.
Got nothing else better to do, just work and then watch some anime and then do the cycle all over again

I can't relate to this Guts doesn't have dementia

If anything I'll probably be watching more anime since my reflexes will be too shit to play action games by then.
