couldn't graduate faster

Cool.

HAHA! Jokes on you, I dropped out of college!

I've graduated from college, and the only difference is that I don't watch shitty anime anymore.

isn't that a good thing?

I haven't and I have.

Hmm...nope.

I'm in college and watching more and more anime progressively.

>>33267423
You found the loophole.

>>33267390
I wish

and you will probably stop fapping too.

i already did graduate with my engineering degree..im a civil engineer and i watch anime on my 62" samsung plasma

I watched more after college bc I had more free time.

That's like saying "You'll stop reading books after you graduate from college". Why would I do that?

I finished college and I'm still addicted to anime.

I'm in college and I'm just getting started. The thought of what I'll do once I have serious disposable income is frightening.

I didn't go to college. I work now and watch anime during my free time. I don't plan on getting married or into any sort of relationship any time soon so I don't see any change in the near future.

>>33267488

I'm 26.
I'm a civil servant.

I STILL watch anime.
What I do for my hobbies isn't a reflection of who I am.
It's just what I do between more salient activities such as work and friends.

I also play video games.

I thought the point of going to college is to get more money to pay for our addiction?

>>33267466
>civil engineer
off topic, but why the fuck did you choose civil engineering? boring and advancement is slow.

I don't watch anime now.

I read manga. I can easily do it while doing anything else I do on the computer, so it's unlikely I'll ever stop.

Only thing graduating college might do (but might now) is help you get a full time job which will limit the amount of time you can spend watching anime, naturally. Its not like normal people still dont watch tv with their jobs and shit.

Because most adults don't watch television or read books after college.

I graduate in May and i'm showing no signs of stopping.

I don't doubt it. Feels bad man.

They said I'd stop liking metal when I got out of freshman year of high school.
They said I'd not have time for anime and gaming when I went to college

Neither have come true, why should this?

i barely watch anime nowadays, by the way i'm freshman

OP here: the reason is because you will grow out of it once you become an adult. you will get married have kids and be happy.

maybe
and hopefully get a well paid job and real life waifu too

I'm 29. I still watch animu. I'm just a lot pickier since i don't have that much free time anymore.

>>33267716
Yeah this is a guaranteed occurence. There is no feasible way this wont end up happening.

graduated college the first time back in 2004. will graduate the second time in 2011.

Still watching anime. Admittedly though I only watch anime made before 2005. There hasn't been anything good made since then.

>>33267716
I'll be bringing up my kids on anime from my youth. Why else would I have spent $200 on Sailor Moon DVDs?

>>33267625
The demographic for most anime is kids to young adult. Once you grow up, you'll likely lose interest. TV and books have a wider targeted demographic.

>>33267568
i chose it because it was the easiest on the course load ;_;

that and its boringly awesome..i just sit around, browse the internet and occasionally "do work"

LOL, no!

graduated 26 year old normalfag familyguy with steady salary here: no I didn't and my wife neither

I haven't watched an anime since Gurren Lagann, all I do is troll this place now

>>33267716

What idiot gets married right out of college? Let alone goes about having kids.

I'll be waiting until I'm at least 30 to do this, even if I do it then. Also, getting married and having kids doesn't mean you will or have to stop enjoying things you once did.

>>33267796
I said probably in my original post.

Lol no.

OP i know your trying to convince yourself of this, but dont bank on it. You want to change your anime intake, you have to be proactive about. There is no "growing" out of it, at least not in a direct way.

I'm in my twenties. I'm too old to quit by now ;_;

I already sorta don't watch anime. I couldn't imagine stop reading manga though.

It's looking very unlikely that I will graduate at this point but I seriously doubt I will ever stop watching anime. Unlike most of the people on this board I genuinely love it.

I genuinely think I will keep my favorites with me forever. Mushishi, Planetes, Baccano, some select anime films, fortunately none of them are especially embarrassing for an adult to watch at least when compared to shit like K-ON.

>>33267873
>having kids doesn't mean you will or have to stop enjoying things you once did
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Been watching anime since I was 10. I'm 28 now.

I don't plan on stopping soon.

I'm a second year university student and I'm already hardly watching any of that shit. If it weren't for the 80's series I still haven't watched or finished, I would be done with this shit.

I started watching anime -- as opposed to TV cartoons that happened to come from Japan -- in my 40s, long after picking up my degrees.

I'm 19... I still watch it occasionally. But this thread made me realize that I actually have not been watching it much lately.

I've been watching it less and less over time.

I really doubt it, and I doubt you're basing your statement on much.

>>33267946
this lol

>>33267873 having kids doesn't mean you will or have to stop enjoying things you once did

Are you retarded ?

I guess that's right. I'm in my second semester and I still enjoy it. It goes on the list of things that I enjoy since my childhood together with wrestling.

>>33267946
no hes right

get your head out your ass, most men are idiots and thats why most men end up miserable

>>33267831

What you don't seem to realize is that I'm 23 and I still play with legos.

>>33267996
It's true though, at least until they are about 6 and you can actually start having some time to yourself again. I don't envy anyone with children, at all.

I'm in college so i'll have more money to pay for this crap

>>33267873
No no i can vouch for this my self.
My wife is a nerd im a nerd and so is our daughter.

>>33267954
Jiisan?

>>33267390

>>knowing we watch anime
>>implying we will graduate

I'm 32 and I'm still watching it. Though I still haven't graduated yet.

>>33267831
>TV and books
Most American television and popular novels these days make me feel more retarded and immature than anime does.

>>33268019
Kids make you miserable. Even if you have the money to afford things that make you happy when you have a kid... you still do these things less.

It isn't that you can't do fun things... but you may have to find DIFFERENT fun things to do.

Although anime is something you could still do.

I will never go to college and I will never have children. I guess this means I'll be watching anime forever.

Probably not

>implying that I'll ever graduate from college

I'm 29 and have a job. i still watch anime and play games. I'll be manchild forever and enjoy every moment of it.

>>33268049
>>33268019
ohhhh man. this isn't anime where parental abandonment is normal for middle schoolers.

Half of /a/ probably lived with their parents and never went to college.

>>33268085
Me here again directed at.
Really guys children are a pain in the ass and are expensive. But you still have free time..

._. you guys gotta enter the real world at sometime.

I watch a couple of new shows during each season, for the last year or so. I really doubt that after college, I'll just stop right there

I remember as a kid, I was watching Dragonball and asked my mom if it was unusual for an adult to watch cartoons because that was all i wanted to do, she said it would be ok


She regrets saying that

Isn't the point of going to college so you can afford to do whatever the fuck you want?

i'll likely be a /sp/fag, cause i like boxing and football

>>33268200
Your mom tried to troll you, but ended up trolling herself.

>>33268091
Not quite as old as him, nor located in Arizona.

>>33268275
No its just so you are one above the average public.
A college graduate and a high school graduate don't make that much of a difference in money.

I once thought i was going to give up video games some time in highschool. Now im trying for a computer science degree with specialization in game design.

yep im one of those.

>graduate from college
Nope, watched anime 100x more after I graduated with my master's 4 years ago.

I'm loling at the fags who think they will be rich just because of college degree.

>>33268322
do you have a family yet anon?

i don't watch animu

i'm here for the mango

>>33267954
fuckin awesome.

>>33268356
Nope, I'm one of those losers who will never have a family, let alone a wife.

Enjoy america runing your dreams :D

>>33268489
fuck ya

After UK spreads their law anime will mostly be banned unless it doesn't have underage nude girls

>>33267954
>I started watching anime -- as opposed to TV cartoons that happened to come from Japan -- in my 40s, long after picking up my degrees.

I salute you.

>>33268531
so most of the ones i watch?

>>33267423
This.

>>33268412
Also this.

>>33268531
As if UK didn't already have a hard time finding anime compared to the states...

Still Britfags will still have a shitload of anime.

Manga on the otherhand, won't do so well in the UK now.

they say 30 is the expiry date

>>33268531

>implying you know how UK law works

Lol.

And you will graduate to co/

>implying that I won't still watch anime so I can be the "cool uncle" to my nieces and nephews, and my friends' children.

>>33268609
already read 100 bullets, dont need you anymore
*back to lolis*

>Implying they won't just start to rape real lolis

>>33268602
Do you think Kodomo no Jikan will be allowed?

In the manga she actually sucks a dick so... I'm not sure how strict the law is either myself.

>>33268575
No you fags are forgetting ACTA that if passed it will affect all western states and if you download anything illegal 3 times you will have your internet taken away. This means licensed anime.

>>33268653
>>33268653
FUUUCK

>>33268641
Hey Uncle, wanna watch some cartoons?

WHAT, no, let me show you superior cartoons!

Wow uncle, you sure do like little girls

-And then the uncle raped her.

26yr here. Don't care for a story anymore. Watch anime only for characters to relax from work and 3dpd coworkers.

>>33268687
you mean if you get caught 3 times?

How are they gonna stop the massive number of streaming?

And I actually download content off of streamed content... most people don't do that.

I'm sure they have some way to still catch me though, but I'm skeptical.

>>33268602
It was stated in the bill I don't have the link anymore fag.

>>33267827
running a mental list of what anime to show my kids and at what age...

Bullshit, most american tv is shit. Even though I'm trying to ease myself back into watching anime, I'm still into the anime culture.

The day that I become a complete normalfag is the day I die.

First year after uni, sysadmin here. I watch anime and browse 4chan AT work.

>>33268859
They day you become a normalfag on the internet is the day you die.

The day you get off the internet altogether is the day you truly live.

>>33268641
Wants to be an old man that attracts children,

Only thing that changes for /a/nons is that we cut down on the mediocre anime as we grow older.

>>33268859

>>33268926
>They day you become a normalfag on the internet is the day you die.

Then how can I prevent that from happening?

No I didn't, I started watching more and more and more and I couldn't stop.

>>33267412
Too bad, I already graduated.

>I have crippling insecurities that make it so that I couldn't possibly continue the hobby I love after entering a social circle that I'm not 100% sure loves anime as much as I do.
Fixed that for you, OP.
Glad I don't have the same insecurities.

Graduated seven years ago. Still watching.

>>33267390
OP is correct, I've been watching anime for 20 years.
