anime

I will not go to the theatres to see anime movies

its nice to sit by yourself in a theater

have like 2 other people in there

These things basically only air in Toronto

Pirate/Pika raised a good question

how much of a show do I have to watch to say "I've seen that"

My example being Liar Liar

Isn't MAL 25%?

it is a terrible, terrible show, that I watched ~6 episodes of and by the end was just hatewatching it

no but I mean colloquially, I don't bother using MAL

MAL is the authority on all things anime

I watch all the E1s, but I wouldn't say I've "seen" every show every season

and I think the 3 episode rule is a retarded redditism

is it 3 episodes because of Steins:Gate?

I try every show, or watch? every show seasonally

and idk, I feel like you can intellectually have an opinion on something, even if you just watch an episode

but there's a line between that, and actually having "seen" a show

I’d say like 75% of a show would be you’ve “seen” it

Anything less than that is “seen some of”

And if you’ve only seen one episode, you’ve only seen one episode, no special terminology needed

Ive read more than 75% of my hero academia but wouldnt say ive read it

I think I am in the boat of I have to finish a show to say ive seen it

Then at 75% would you say you’ve “read most of” it?

I think where I'm at is, I consider watching something 100% in its entirety, to be the baseline but I'm trying to square how I feel about Liar Liar

How much of it did you watch

6 or 7 episodes, like I said

it' a dogshit show, that I feel I have a fully formed opinion of

Leg did you read chapter 430 yet for MHA?

Given the most anime are only 12 episodes nowadays, I would say seeing half of it is enough to tell whether you like it or not

I wouldn't count that show specifically because it goes to extra dogshit in the last few episodes

it's not about whether I like it or not really

But also, if something is exceptionally bad, you’re gonna notice regardless of how much of it you watch

lol Polu, no way

Also Vinny my take has always been 4 episodes if it's a 12 episode anime. That's usually enough to give it time and decide to drop. I'd say 1/3rd

no i don't read leaks

Ok I'll come back when it's released officially then

I think I know what Polar is talking about

and it's hillarious

i can make an exception

where is this leak?

430

Anyway, my conclusion is that I feel I've "watched" Liar Liar, would obviously not say I've completed it, but I don't feel a distinction between that and any other show from that season I actually finished I think anime autism in regards to the idea of "dropping" a show somehow being its own different thing is also weird

I mean I think it’s shorthand for “I didn’t finish this” no?

that's a dumb final chapter

yup

they said the line though

so it's alright

Oh wait is the ”youre my hero” thing real? I thought it was a meme

No that was real

Can we have a Liar Liar movie night? The jim carrey version.

That’s so dumb lmao

didn't flash forward far enough to show that dekus twins have one for all and all for one

I also thought it was a meme and went to read the chapter right away

that was 429

unless its also in 430

I haven’t ever read the mha manga so idk

Don't it gets pretty bad

read vigilantes instead since it doesn't need to power creep to beat a world ending threat

I mean, I’m sure the anime will eventually cover the material. I don’t think there’s any escaping it

Anime is doing a better job

from what I've heard

Also for the discussion before, if I didn't complete everything I watch, my rule would be "I watched enough to 'get' what the show is"

That can be 1 episode, that can require a full season

the manga had 7 page chapters and other pacing issues

anime can just fix it

Yeah

7 MAL people claim to have seen it by rating it

Todays pseudo harem finally introduces a loli character in an anime I am watching

you dodged both Dungeon People and Atri

how many episodes of season 7 are out

11

there are only 20 total (first 4 weeks were the recap)

they did 4 episodes of recap?

Yes

I think polu and I were the only people who watched the recap, they had some new scenes (very few)

also each one played a different op and ed from the series which was cool

I know someone who did not cry at loosing their left hand

this guys weak compared to my favourite pedophile in anime
