How to be a P/a/trician

cute girls doing cute things

Holy shit no. The people who do that, regardless of medium, end hating it

The true anime patrician just watches what he/she wants to watch, enjoys anime as it is and loves all of it equally, even when he/she prefers ones over the others.

This is honestly pathetic. I'm pretty sure this bullshit is what MAL and your 3x3 containment circlejerks are for.

I don't watch anime

I watch cinem/a/.

Reading shitloads of manga.

I've seen 400+ series and at this point I just look if they're made by a certain studio or if a VA I like is in it.
Stop trying to make sense out of a cartoon.

I watch anime because I enjoy it. I'm a pretentious dick with film and half the reason I began watching lots of anime in the first place was to allow myself to not be so dismissive all the time.

if you'd actually watch the fucking stuff instead of thinking about watching it you'd develop a critical eye for things

You need to watch at least 300 anime (with at least 5% being from the 80's), read 150 manga and know the famous names in the industry.

You should have to read more manga than anime. Manga's like fucking popcorn.

>50 chapters long
That still only takes a few hours at most. Still less than a 13 episode anime even if those were monthly chapters.
