Nonetheless, I decided to create a post telling you how I find my Animes, and what the biggest reasons for me to consider them are. And really, they're quite simple.
(I don't normal look first at either of these two reasons, it's just whatever catches my eye first)
1st
Art-style
(how anti-climatic, there was no build up whatsoever!)
But seriously, one of my main reasons for watching anime is the art-style. I mean, if I wanted to watch crappy drawn figures moving around I'd watch Cartoon Network (that wasn't very nice).
My preference is actually Moe. What can I say? I'm a sucker for cute things.
Oh episode 3, you make me laugh |
This anime was a bad idea... |
Don't look directly at the eyes! |
Moving along.
2nd
This time I'll build up more suspense. Scroll DOWN!!!
That's enough suspense.
Genres
When I'm looking for an Anime, I look for two key genres; Comedy and Slice of Life.
Though at times I may be in a mood for something else, it's almost always these two. When you see comedy in the genres though, that doesn't make the series a comedy, since it can be a sub-genre just thrown in there. So when looking for a Comedy, usually it can only be paired with one or two other genres such as Slice of Life or whatever, before it would be considered a sub-genre (Note: There are exceptions).
This would be an interesting cross-over of comedies... |
Don't judge an anime half way through... |
This needs no caption |
The eyes god dammit the eyes! |
Well yup, that's it, there's definitely no more, you can go home now. I hope you enjoyed this post! Good-bye! Thanks for reading!

Why the hell is there a third?
Oh yea, well there is one last contributing factor that points us in a direction of considering an anime, and this so happens to be...
Popularity
Now this is a third, and not really to be considered a reason to watch an anime, because well, everyone has their own opinions. The more popular an anime, doesn't necessarily mean it's good. There's loads of popular series that I personally can't stand, but hey, sometimes it's a good idea to check it out to see what all the fuss is about.
Like a Boss |
Lucky Star again? Well it can't be helped, it's a popular comedy |
And lastly
OH GOD I LOOKED! |
But honestly, Azumanga Daioh does fit in all of these categories.
Anyway, I'll be sure to post more about winning Animes (and a mix of the unfortunate "Heads up, this Anime sucks!"). Thanks for reading!
