Hear everyone talking about how great a really popular show that you haven't watched is

Stop ignoring it then

Never happened to me, at least you could provide some examples.

>caring about what others think about a show that you like
faggot

That's basically every anime I've ever enjoyed.

>Holy shit user X is AMAZING!
>"Meh, I'll get around to it"
>"Damn, this is actually really good!"
>You're ACTUALLY watching X? GTFO! It sucks now!

This has never happened before in the entire history of mankind.

soul eater, tokyo ghoul, elfen lied, deadman wonderland

>inb4 numerous "op is a fag"

>tfw you start a thread about a show you're watching and it 404s with 0 replies
tis the life watching shows from the backlog

i know that feel better than i'd like to

C'mon dude you said "and it turns out to be really good" maybe those shows were promising in the early episodes but they ended to be horrible.

>now everyone thinks it's shit for some reason
Literally no one thought or said.

>finally decide to watch it and it turns out to be really good
If you like it, just enjoy it. That's all.

that is so relatable. you should be on twitter.

>Kemono Friends AOTY 2017
>Sup Forums is extremely vocal against it now
Might just be MIA furries though.

It hasn't TRULY happened to me, because I usually don't like them that much when I finally get around to watch them.

But maybe Stein's Gate, never really felt the need to talk about it though so I didn't really feel like I missed out.

Not against it, but against Kadokawa's shit.
Contrarians to the show were there since the beginning.

>finally watch something which was popular years ago
>no way to discuss it because it doesn't get threads anymore
Being chronically late to your own interests is fucking hell. I wouldn't wish this curse upon anyone.

>finally watch something which was popular years ago
>torrent the best encode, OVAs/specials, and maybe even sequel to binge at my own leisure
>don’t have to worry about seeing it flood the board or being shitposted/spoilered by fanatics and contrarians because everyone forgot about it already
It’s not too bad. Even a year wait is usually enough for this to happen, or at best within the next season.

Maybe occasionally, but it happens way, way too often for me. I've lost some of the greatest shitstorms on Sup Forums because I take residence in my main boards in waves, can't discuss my favorite forgotten anime because there's no more discussion (and all my threads die), shit like that which has happened all my life. It's almost despair inducing.

>thread actually takes off
>but it's just people talking about how much fun it was to watch it live

i'll never get tired of seeing that picture

It's not fun. I think watching BDs and not having to wait week by week makes for the best watching experience, but missing out on the threads is a pain if they're even halfway decent.
