yeah that's pretty goddamn stupid OP

I picked up and didn't drop (which was really fucking hard) Bahamut just because I liked Krulcifer's design.
I also watched Kokoro Connect because of that pic, you know the one.

I started watching anime due to about 2 seconds of anime in a video on youtube.

Monogatari series. Sup Forums said it was good. It was trash.

I picked Locodols because of this pic.
It wasn't so great.

Kemono Friends. Sup Forums said it was good. It was trash.

OP she is a child
You are sick

>she is a child

I picked up Gabriel Dropout because of Satania's toilet scene in episode 1.

Ended up finishing it for the Gab and Raphi antics.

Faggots are not allowed here.

>another brainlet too stupid to follow plot/character motivations when they aren't spoonfed

Really? Picked up, thanks user.

I remember seeing a PV for the Kyokai no Kanata novel around 2012 and I wished that I could see her in an animated form.
With this being a novel published by KyoAni, it was really a matter of time until they animated it. It came sooner than I expected.

As much as I love some of the characters 90% of monogatari is a boring, pretentious dialogue dump. Kizu was an exception and surprised me by how much I enjoyed it.

I wanted to see loli's first blood.

>I also watched Kokoro Connect because of that pic, you know the one.
Thinking back on it, I also picked up Kokoro Connect because of that image.

i found Kizu to be pretty generic. i only really liked part 1. cuz that intro

I picked up Owari no Seraph (or rather I didn't drop it after the first episode) because they nailed the correct pronunciation of Țepeș, and that was porn to my ears. Now I have no regrets I stuck with it, I really like the anime/manga.

i picked up Yuru Yuri because i saw a gif with a snake on the one girls head

If you pay attention and aren't an idiot, then there's a whole lot going on. There can be legit criticisms, but the way you're doing it tells me you weren't able to follow it. Which is just embarrassing.

>inb4 DEEP plot
There isn't any "deep plot," it just doesn't belabour every single plot point.

I picked up God Eater after finishing the game, stopped mid 2nd episode since the main charecter was really annoying and not even redeemable.

>y-you're just too stupid to understand it
Are monogatarifags the anime equivalent of rick and morty fags?

I picked up YuYuYu because I heard there was a girl named Nogi without legs. "Nogi" means legs in russian, so I thought it was hilarious.

Started mayoiga, never dropped it because the threads were lit af

>many months later and she's still a bbq on a stick.

I pick up a lot of LN adaptations because they have silly titles like Danmachi, Oreimo or Noukome

Picked up for the baby, stayed for Salia.

Have you ever picked up a show because one of the characters had a cool armor?

I picked Rio Rainbow Gate after accidentally clicking on it when trying to download something else.

If an adult comes out of an algebra class and calls it "voodoo bullshit" then you're gonna call them a moron. Same thing here. It's not fucking hard to get, but somehow this adults-only imageboard keeps producing retards who can't.

Memegatari in a nutshell:
>60% dialogue
>30% empty backdrops
>10% fanservice
>0% interest

>Initial D
>Titanfall 2 /tfg/ and eurobeat memes

>Upotte!!
>/k/ /ak/

>Elfen Lied
>people on Sup Forums and /wsg/ being nostalgic about it
>turned out to be grossly overrated

>Shimoneta
>that fucking gymnasium bug sex film / announcement scene

...

When did I say that I didn't get it? Why do you insist that I'm "not getting it"? Is that your defense mechanism when someone shows even the slightest criticism towards what you enjoy, or is this bait because it's really working.

I saw the Lucky Star initial D part on youtube and picked it up. I'd never even watched anime before then and now I'm at 450 shows and counting.

I saw a gif of a scene from the Hentai OVA in Funnyjunk back in the day and found out there's an anime and loved it

I picked up DxD because a lot of people were talking about it, the only thing I liked about it was Raynare.

If your "criticism" is buzzwords that aren't even accurate to the flaws the show has, then it sure looks like you're not fucking getting something.

Saw pic related in buygag thread and needed an excuse to buy it. Turned out to be AOTS.

I picked up Dragon Crisis because of the Kugimiya Rie loli. I don't know why, I don't like her loli voice that much. It was one of the worst shows I've ever watched but I still went 9 episodes in.

It's good bait but here's your last (you) from me

I saw the number of seeders was repeating digits.

I kind of liked it as a romcom. Great girl designs too, but it got pretty weird halfway through, still funny at least.

i picked up LWA because someone posted *angry constanze sounds* with a picture

Does it have enough fanservice in order to be at least watchable?

Isekai smartphone because his coat looked pimpish as fuck.
My headcanon is MC pimping out his harem
> After all I did for you you refuse to blow the old man in heaven? *Bitchslap*

Because OP powers from god don't come for free.

picked up mekaku shitty actors because of Miku design in it

after episode 1 she wasn't even in the fucking show

I picked up Eromanga because of pic related.

I've watched shows because they were popular here

Played Hare Hare Yukai on Stepmania about 10 years ago and thought the dance seemed fun

I think I win.

same

It has plenty.

I can't be the only one.

This picture made me pick it up.

I picked up Symphogear because of a webm

I picked up Ramune because of this.
youtu.be/dI-nHps5lXU

Buyed because worms.
Stay in the show because lewd kisses

I picked up Dagashi Kashi purely on this character design and then the show is 80% just about sweets.

I watched and read all of jojo only to understand the memes.

i've watched all of macross because of gif rel

My dick drives me to pick up many a show, but I don't think it's dumb.

Boy, it IS trash. God in fuck, that series is horrible

Nothing dumb about thinking with your dick. How do you think you were born, user?

The PLOT.

I picked up Monogatari just because of that damn song.
SEN NO

I picked up jojo because some user linked this song and I thought it was great workout music.

m.youtube.com/watch?v=XUhVCoTsBaM

Was it wrong of me to start watching non-mainstream animes because of this video? Especially this one anime. This was bait

Is this one of those 'she didn't know what she was saying' moments or is she really that big of a hoe?

I watched Smartphone because it looked dumb. It was dumb, in a rather comforting way.

She knew what she was saying but it was intended as a joke.

I'm with you

I watched Pincess Tutu because one time my old friends and I got really high and put it on as a joke on netflix because we thought it looked super dumb. I remembered it a few years later and ended up rewatching and loving it.

Dora the explorer Fury road?
they got me too

I picked up Strike Witches because of this image.
Still a pretty good decision in retrospect.

I picked up Blood+ because of a 2 second cutout of a Sup Forums moskau dance video on YT

The webm of this scene made me pick it up

ClariS and TrySail.

The ending is so fucking catchy. Listening to it just makes me all warm and happy when I'm feeling sad.

berserk(ok it's not a show) because I wanted to see why this guy was so hyped in this video youtu.be/4VnLY_iQxGU

that's a juicy JC.

Picked up fucking himegoto because a friend told me the MC was waifu material. Found out the truth, didn't care and watched it all the. Read all the manga plus the side series

It's fanart. Usually lewd fanart doesn't drive me to pick up a show but that ass was too sexy. And I have no regrets. Stayed for Sagiri and Elf.

Undrop a shitty anime because my favorite seiyuu got a couple of lines in one episode.

i picked up idolmaster cinderella girls because i saw a screenshot of rin with her arm around uzuki while sitting on a sofa as if rin were saying, "this is MY girl." i was so fucking triggered when i saw the scene and no arm was around her, butbthe whole series gave me a lot of feels pouring out. someone pls post the image i'm talking about. i can't find it
i think uzuki would he the aggressive one if "they" happened

I picked up Gochiusa because of the gif of chino getting pancaked.

I don't know, are Rick and Morty-fags the Adult Swim-version of the Big Bang Theory-fags?

I undropped Guilty Crown because I heard Shu gets NTR'd.
I first dropped in during episode 3. Glad I picked it up again to experience Hitler Shu

Ironically this is the only good reason to pick up eromanga

Worse.

I picked up SAO because I thought it looked cool.
It was 4 years ago, don't judge me.

Elf is another good reason.

I picked up Gurren Lagann while it was airing, because I saw a shitty screencap of Rossiu being punched in the face and it looked like some guy was killed by a metal bar going through his head and the thread was flipping out, so I thought it was some ebin trainwreck show where characters just keep dying.

Shu did nothing wrong. He deserved better.

Megumi is another reason.

I always shouted 'Whoo' along with the lyrics. Top tier ED.

I picked up Shimoneta because of this gif.

I picked up plenty of shows just cause the doujins were good..
NO SHAME!

worth it until you find out the novel is shit.

I picked up Bakemonogatari out of spite because of that one Youtube video of that normalfag saying he loved Bakemonogatari but he changed his tone about the rest of the series because it "promoted sexual assaults on children" and "spread pedophilic messages".

To that I said "Fuck you, good sir. Picked up!"

I picked up Little WItch Academia on a whim upon seeing an AkkoxDiana thread on the catalog.
I do not regret my decision.

Agreed. For a beta MC he's alright.
