Memes about this show are so hard to avoid. After a week of seeing like 4-5 a day I said fuck it and watched a synopsis of the series. The ending seemed insanely contrived which put me off but for some reason I ended up downloading the show and starting it. I got the point where I personally thought they should have ended and then I stopped watching the show.

I’m still confused as to why the hell I watched it in the first place. I mean, it wasn’t a waste of my time. Was rather quite enjoyable. At least I can get the fuckin’ memes now. Hasn’t really changed my opinion on anime (nothing negative, just not really for me 9 times out of 10) but I’m still just… why the hell did I watch that?

Anything you’ve watched for reasons that you can’t quite place? Whether you loved it or hated it?

    I find if it’s a good story i don’t careless what medium its in. I don’t watch things because they are anime but i also don’t watch thing because they are not anime. The story is the most important.

      Same. I never watched anime until I found out about Steins;Gate and DeathNote.

      Steins;Gate is because of time travel, and I kinda have an obsession with the idea of time travel.

      DeathNote, well, a murder notebook, already hooked.

      Its not the medium, its the story.
