I watched the English dub of Pokémon XY&Z on UK TV. I guess that counts.

I watched Sword Art Online, as well as a few Yokai Watch episodes.

I also watched a couple of DBZ episodes with my nephew back in January.

Does it make me a loser? Or is looking after kids a decent excuse?

The RDM showed his kids some episodes of Pokemon. That's about it.

Last anime I watched was Boy and the Beast.

It was uh, not the finest re-introduction to animu.

Still watch a couple of shows here and there, but they are mostly crap. At least the Moe shit is dying down, with fantasy shows doing a come back.

Still I been sticking to manga for most of the time.

Have a nice day

I still watch lots of it. Unfortunately? Fortunately? I don't know.

One Piece, Yowamushi Pedal, JoJo's, Case Closed, and a bunch of other shit.

I don't think I'll ever not watch Anime. This is the path I have chosen.

I feel a lot of enjoyment coming from American cartoon lately. Steve Universe, Adventure Time, the now cancelled Tron series. Hell, Samurai Jack just came back last week and it has been a blast.

Have a nice day

Steven Universe and Adventure Time are great, but I've kinda' stopped following them.
Yokai Watch is pretty bad. Too samey from episode to episode.

Not really. Not much time. I occasionally catch a classic I like(Hokuto no Ken, Berserk or something, but even then I more crack out a manga.) Jojo's is cool.

I show my little guy Pokemon/Yokai Watch but I don't much follow along. I'm so lost on Pokemon because I like remember the first 3 seasons way back.

Most of my free time nowadays is spent with various fighting games(Guilty Gear, Tekken, King of Fighters and Virtua Fighter mostly) and the odd RPG of the Quarter that I can sneak in.

Nobody does. Not even Anno.

You'd ruin the only comfy forum on SG? Sad

Yokai Watch is clearly for a much younger audience, and it perfectly does the job. For those of you who have kids, it's a great way to keep them busy.

Have you guys ever checked Crunchy Roll? They've got a decent selection of animés, and the subscription is pretty cheap. They also have live series.

Back in January we kept my nephew busy with Bananya, my sister in law approved.

It's a good start for an on-demand anime service, but leaves much to be desired.

I'm sure they could do better indeed, but I still think it's a pretty good deal, considering how cheap the subscription is.

I find Crunchy Roll is a good deal, far way better than back in the days of fansub, waiting for those 3 copies down of a master tape to arrive! How times has change when you can actually get to watch the anime that just aired in japan with subs... and legally!!

Now if there were any series worth to watch...

Have a nice day

Yeah, that's the main issue really. I'd mostly recommend it to people with kids, who want to be able to handpick a few things for them to watch.

I only watch subbed episodes of Dragon Ball Super. I got into Attack on Titan and Berserk too. Other than that, it's a lot of Pokemon on Netflix with my daughter due to Pokemon Go. Still waiting on that last Evangelion movie to come out now that the dude is done with the pretty boring Godzilla movie he made. :/

The only new DBZ I've seen is the second movie (the Frieza one). I also saw the new Yu-Gi-Oh movie at the cinema. That was predictably terrible
