Well lately, given that I'm getting on a bit and being burdened with the chore that is life, it’s becoming quite vexing...
So in the minute time I actually get to watch my favourite shows I have tried spicing things up a bit! Razor-blades and baby-oil and shit...(I kid, I kid. Don't cut yourself!)

Anyway, I make a joint, grab some munchies, light some candles, strip down to my boxers and grab my blanky! Apart from the candles nothing much else has changed from before. However, I now have to carry out this appalling act in secrecy. I.e. While the Bitc/princess is sleeping! Honestly, It is like I’m having a sordid affair with, Kurosaki Ichigo, or Yagami Light or something...

Shhh... Right now I'm having to type like a whispering mute in a library. And I'm about to watch Claymore! lol...

Nujabes · 2007-05-26, 01:13

Laptop. Most definetly. I can't watch anime much on T.V., because I don't have the channels to watch it on.

ibreatheanime · 2007-05-28, 20:28

GAA the only channels that I have that air anime are Cartoon Network & IFC OH THE AGONY!!!

aohige · 2007-05-28, 21:01

Shaken, not stirred.

xxmimixx · 2007-05-28, 21:13

I usually watch my anime on a DVD at home or on the computer because well, I envy it for videos and different series of anime!

Television Statistics
Pros:
Excellent sound
Extreme graphics

Cons:
No Pause button
Restricted tv schedule
Marathons are a rare sight and if they conflict with Realife you have to drop them for later
Must wait 24 hours/week for next episode
If you miss an episode you must wait for months for the series to restart
If you have a power outage no restarts.
Forced to fight over tv with parents/siblings
Must be in the same country to watch certain shows

====================

Internet Shows
Pros:
UI Flexibility
Can Pause/Edit/Modify Video
Can watch anime anytime
Can watch anime from around the world
No Television battles
No restricted Schedule
Marathons FTW!

Cons:
Unstable graphics
Unstable sound
Video corruption
Long video download Queues

======================
To sum it all up i prefer internet television
it all started when i was browsing youtube i decided to check out naruto
i found a abnormal amount of episodes and decided to watch, loved Netvision ever since watched over 12,264 anime episodes and enjoyed alot of them been watching on the net for 7 months what would have taken me 10 years on TV, i have given up the tv to my parents.

months passed then youtube got bought by google (-_-)
google then banned every video and account involved in anime, i left the dead site and went to veoh.
they have better avatars layout and comments section.
i watch anime on usb monitor with bulk earphones, the speakers are faulty.
i have broken 2 of my favorite bulk earphones ;_; i tripped on the first one's wire and broke it the second one headband broke because of Fatigue, under 30 days (-.-)

i watch anime in a dark room with my face in the screen XD in full screen mode with GOM player it can play FLV,WMV,AVI,QT,MKV files its at download.com

i envy you

i wanted my computer on a kotatsu
dad brought back a kotatsu from his long vacation it took alot of arguing just to get the kotatsu
in the end he stripped the kotatsu of its blanket before giving it to me saying that i would "stain it" in the end it became a backup table where i put my books instead because he still refuses to put the comp there. pfft noob....
i have a low white confy chair to go with it im plaining to get another kotatsu

aohige · 2007-05-29, 01:45

Use computer in a kotatsu?

Horrible idea!
You'll NEVER craw out of there... ever!
Your legs will forever be attached inside.

Psychommunity · 2007-05-29, 03:21

I will usually get a stock of Anime, move my PC to the main theatre room in our house and hook the computer up to the TV. I dis-like having to use the subtitles that come with most of my bought DVD's, so I rip the DVD's and grab some soft-subs apply them and watch them like that.

Where's the back-support?...Once a week I watch all my favs consecutively which takes about 3-4 hrs and if I had to sit there with no back rest I'd go crazy...So you lay down and watch anime eh? I've tried it and it isn't as fun as people pretend it is...Siting Indian-style sucks too unless you're pretty limber...

I pull my flatscreen monitor to the window and I sit in a lawn chair on the patio with my feet-up so I can drink beer (usually Bud-ICE, Heineiken, or Miller High Life when I'm broke^^) and smoke while I get quite intoxicated watching my fav shows....I have rules that I basically follow to keep my line-up fresh..I never watch 2 mechas in a row and I never watch more than 2 shonen-fighters in a row to keep the session with variety...

A typical anime session line-up for me right now (Which takes place usually once a week on Fri-Sat) would be like this:

1)Hunter x Hunter
2)Bartender
3)Code Geass or Tokyo Tribe2 (when there's actually a NEW ep >_<)
4)Naruto
5)Bleach
6)DeathNote
7) One Piece
8)Hajime No Ippo or Noein

I like mixing in older shows with the new ones and I usually throw a TV show I like in the session like Lost (which blew my mind last week) or Smallville (Clark vs. Bizzarro, Yeah!!)..LOL for some reason I always watch Naruto then Bleach which has been a staple of my session for I guess 3 years now...More realistic anime or relationship anime I watch that anytime as I like to keep the actual outside session for action-packed or highly colorful anime that go well with maintaining my buzz...I'm usually pretty sad going into those last couple of shows as I know the session will be over for atleast another week...Yeah now that I'm an adult I can't just dik around an watch anime every single day religiously like I used to a while ago, but once a week of pure anime sessioning seems to work for me now...

P.S. Shay- What Princess?? Hehe Repped you for that!

Jamezterr · 2007-05-29, 10:06

Pretty much just sit on my nice ol' chair and watch my Anime on my PC screen. ^^

Agent Orange · 2007-05-30, 12:47

On my PC most of the time, though sometimes I'll convert the vids and put 'em on my iPod. Usually at night & early in the morning when it's dark.

fuuka · 2007-05-30, 16:04

Ayame_ · 2007-05-30, 16:09

Midorii · 2007-05-30, 16:25

i watch my anime on my computer, full screen, eating fruit and with my 2 sisters. When we watch Death Note i have to explain them what happened, and that's when i lose my concentration

Realist_Classic · 2007-05-30, 17:58

I usually playback my anime fansubs and DVDs on a laptop which outputs to a larger and brighter LCD display.

Diaboso · 2007-05-31, 13:53

large tv and dvd player in my room with no lights on...I hate light ..I think I may be half vampire...

Chi-no · 2007-06-01, 20:51

DVD player with a small screen TV in my room .... Or maybe on my Laptop.... With the DVD in it playing...

shiro83 · 2007-06-03, 11:48

On my computer... in front of my LCD screen...

Recently tried using some noise-isolation earphones while watching. And I heard even better quality sounds than previously.

Shiryuu · 2007-06-03, 12:43

Most of the time, using widescreen monitor. Sometimes I switch to using the TV just because it's bigger and smoother at fullscreen. All with lights on and not eating anything(unless it's dubbed).
