How old are you? (v5)
 

Here is a brand new thread to post your age (or lie about it). Yet again it took someone reminding me the previous one had closed before I bothered to update it. As before, if you posted, feel free to re-post and/or re-vote here. The poll will expire 1 year and we'll restart a new thread (eventually).

Small Print: To negate the need for people to ask why this thread exists, though I suppose someone will as they always do: We don't need this thread and, yes, you can find the age of people by looking at their profiles (if they want to share such information). This thread exists simply because people found it interesting in the past. Once upon a time Catgirls agreed to restart it each year, in order to track how the age distribution of the forum's population changes. I'm simply continuing the trend. Plus people can "vote" their age rage without actually making it identifiably public, so it is slightly different.

If you really think another is needed, you'll have to ask a moderator.

Yes, I lied about it! XD

30 years in this world.

20 - 24. 21 - Oh yes, I'm off age by American standards now :p

I told the truth! =O
I'ma 15-19.

my last year in the 15-19 bracket

I want to know the person who voted "Higher than 79"

Technically I'm younger, but my 15th birthday is in eight days so I don't care :D

20-24 age range.

19, so "15- 19".

I'm going to accuse Skullchukka (2nd post) .... silly, but whatever.

Now I need to ping all the other "right half of the bell curve" posters on AS so I'm not alone in the upper brackets.

24 but soon 25 so I'm at the limit :p

I'm 18 now... so I'm still in the 15-19 age range.

20-24, more specifically 22 :heehee:

25-29. 25 and a few months. The only thing I looked forward to was lower insurance... yay...

Im 16. Im quite mature for my age. But I always find time to mess around. Just got my drivers too

<-- An addition to the 20 - 24 age bracket.

Its quite pleasant to see presence from those who are in the upper echelons of the age group(Vexx, SeijiSensei, etc.). Kinda helps to disprove the fallacy that Anime/Mangas are geared ONLY towards kids and teens.

woah. just made it to the next category! woohoo! haruhi be praised!

*high five the other 25-somethings *

:p

*Returns the high five*

Congrats, Onizuka! I've been in the 25 category for 6 months now.

20 Here. I was 19 when I posted in the last one.

looks like the majority of the posters yet are around 20-24.

*throws his self at the 20-24 bracket*

20 and decreasing :heh:

Mmmmh still 21 but soon 22. :cool:

17 turns 18 in 137 days which would be 23 Feb, 2009
Still in the 15-19 category >.>

still got a few more years before i get chucked into O-san (>30) category >.> So not looking forward to that.

My age is 16 years old

14, only person to vote under 15 so far.

15 in 2 months though, so it will change soon.

26 here, and i never lie.

*Whistle* Don't accuse me, OP said we could lie about it.:heh:
Well, okay okay don't hate me. Its 21 :nod:

i always 18 - -+

Thanks for the nice comments. I do have to say, though, that if current production trends continue, I'm less and less likely to be in the anime audience. Economic retrenchment in the anime industry and in the general worldwide economy will continue to put pressure on studios to avoid more experimental shows and ones oriented to non-otaku Japanese viewers. I don't see more than two or three series in the current season that I have much interest in viewing, which was my experience in the season just ending as well. That number was never very high, but it was more like five or six series per season just a year or so ago.

Still in the same ol' 15-19 bracket xD

Aye, I have to agree its getting easier and easier for me to say, "no, not investing my time in this one." Especially when I have 2 or 3 series in the vault that match it (or more frequently recently - are *better* at it than the new series is).

The last two seasons have been pretty slim in worthwhile pickings, though the ones I've kept were fairly jewel-like. I keep trying though because occasionally there's another jewel. But when "times are tough", studios find it safer to "shampoo, rinse, repeat" than to try something different --- and unfortunately, the hardcore otaku in Japan have a tendency to really punish anything outside their predictable safety bubble.

I'm 16 years old.

This forum displays age in the public profile on the left 0_o

Ha,

just put the 15 - 19 in a tie. :rolleyes:

aye, but only if you flip the switch for it. Yours isn't showing at the time of this post, for example.

These polls are more interesting if everyone participates because it gives you a better feel for the audience that makes up AS. There are a lot more adults here than someone unfamiliar with the anime fandom might have guessed, for example.

Voted on the 25 - 29 bracket. :)

heh. 7 months for me. beat you! well only just....and being old isn't something....to....be...proud....

...........
:sad:

I think the one who voted Older than 79 is lying:heh:
