Does /a/ watch any anime with other people? I was curious if you guys feel awkward about how other people watch shows with you. Mine is like this:

>watch generic haremshit cause my friend enjoys those
>girl falls over and shows panties then proceeds to overract to mc
>friend has seen this hundreds of times
>laughs hysterically
>in fact laughs hysterically at anything he deems funny
>feel awkward because I don't laugh at tv publicly unless it's somebody suffering (for intent to make the audience laugh)
>don't know if want to watch shows with him anymore

I'm not the only one who feels awkward when trying to watch shows with others... are they?
>>
No. They know I watch anime, but I go out drinking with them instead.

>laughs hysterically at anything he deems funny
My goodness. You have friends who laugh when they think something's funny!?
Mongrels.

Of the friends that I have, about half are into anime and are always wanting to watch it or argue about shows with me and the other half either don't care or hate it even though they know I like it. For that half, when I am out with them, I do not bring up my hobby and nobody says anything about it.

Hysterically? That's kind of awkward. You need to hear it. I've just been really repressed that I don't express myself too much in that regard.

I wish I could drink with freinds, but they are faggots and don't drink.
>>
I watch anime with my siblings.
>>
>I don't laugh at tv publicly unless it's somebody suffering

Wow so dark and edgy
>>
>>70039497
I do that too...but i also fun when people is having fun or something fun happens.

You don't laugh at someone else's suffering, Anon?
>>
From personal experience, the only people I could consider true friends are the ones who like anime. They are also the ones who come out to me about anime. I hide my power level well. Anyone who I thought I could be friends with, and who didn't like anime, turned out to be complete dicks in the end. Still, I moved away or they did. We keep in loose contact, though.

Now I just sit alone at my house. Whenever my younger brother and his gf come by we may watch something, but they enjoy entry level Bleach and shit.
>>
I watch shows with my friend, but we talk via gtalk because we live on opposite sides of the country. Before each season starts, we pick some shows that seem good enough for both of us, watch those when they come out, and watch the other crap separate.

Do you have any fucking idea what I would do to have a friend like yours OP? Jesus Christ you are one lucky bastard and you don't even know it.

Fuck, the only guy I know who likes anime and manga who watches shit with me is my cousin and he is very fucking picky about the shit he watches.

I want to watch a harem/fanservice show with someone and look at panties together, is this too much to ask for?

I watched.. TTGL, One outs, Major (all 6 seasons, movie, OVA), Kaiji, Eva (and all movies), and Nisha Rainbow with a friend. Good times.
>>
>>70039497
Tom & Jerry is quite the dark and edgy show innit?
>>
>>70040038
No you don't. He gets really loud and obnoxious. When I say hysterical, it's loud to the point that you feel awkward. It's one where both of you might laugh, but then he keeps laughing loudly and you feel like he found it way funnier than you did for some reason, but in an awkward way.

>is this too much to ask for?

With a decent person that isn't a narutard? Yes, they are very rare.

Next time he laughs, begin screaming and howling in laughter and drown it out. Then, every time he opens his mouth, continue to do this until he stops.
>>
I have one friend who's an /a/non. Watching with him is like so:
>decide to watch something new to both of us
>he picks it out because he has better taste and a higher power level
>it's actually good / interesting / funny
>we watch in silence
>occasional simultaneous chuckle or 'oh shit!'
>share snacks
take breaks ever couple of episodes to check /a/

It couldn't be better, really.
