Don't be a retard and spout shit like that without knowing what it means. MAL is a useful tool for tracking what you've watched, and no, excel is fucking shit. It's the community part of MAL that is cancerous and hated by /a/, the tracking part has always been accepted.

The fact itself that I have to spell this out for you shows how new you are.

Why do you need to track what you have watched?
Other than to show that your anime penis is longer and better than other person's anime penis?

>>148020354
That's just pathetic.

>>148020371
>why do you need to do X
Because I want to. I want to know, when going back to old seasons, if I've already tried to watch something and if it was so bad that I removed it from my memory. There's a lot of shows like that every season, and since I'm always searching for something to watch I can't remember everything that I've ever watched in my life. You don't remember every album of every obscure band you've ever listened to, do you?

>>148020371
Not him, but I often take rather long pauses if I am watching long shows and forget on which episode I am.

Saved me some time numerous times while watching Dragon Ball and Gundam.

>>148020477
That happens to me too, but if the break is long enough that I don't remember where I was, I've probably forgotten what is going on also, so I just skim through the episodes around and little before where I stopped.
Helps me to find where I was and reminds me what was going on.

I don't get counting how much entertainment you've consumed. I guess it would prevent that awful feeling of realizing you've already watched what you're currently watching.

>>148020938
What really comes in handy is the manga list. I rarely look at recent updates on most mangas, so I always have to go back and guess where I left off. Or hope that the numbers on MAL are correct.

It's also good if you want to recommend something to a friend, that's a bit more niche, so you can't remember it all the time.

>>148020371
>Why do you need to track what you have watched?
Because otherwise I can't remember if I've seen the show or not. You can't expect me to watch some shitty harem VN adaptation sober and remember it afterwards?

>>148020371
I like to remember what I've dropped, put on hold, and suggestions of other shows I liked. Also, sometimes I get busy at work or go on vacation. It's nice to know where I was at in a series I'm watching without having to hunt through 10 episodes to figure it out (and potentially spoil yourself). My brain doesn't remember as well as when I was younger.

MAL is just an archival tool for me. I spend no time on the social aspects of it.

>>148020834
The fallibility of human memory?

Why do people shit on MAL? I only use it to record stuff

>>148019075
I have watched about 110 anime since about the time i started watching them, which was 8 years ago.

>>148021137
I'm just above 400 and only have 66 days, but that's probably because I focus on 13 or 26 episode series almost exclusively. I don't have the time or willpower to sit through anything longer.

>>148021485
Because of the faggotry that comes from there

>rating shows before they have even started
>rating shows by episode
>most reviews are one paragraph blurbs where they summarize the show and then say its the best thing ever
>most shows are overrated by at least two points (A show with a rating is seven is probably more of a 5)
>The forums are shit unless they are LN/Manga threads where they post links to find translated stuff

I bet you retards watch at 1.5x speed so you can brag on MAL about how much anime you've completed. Kill yourselves.

If you think anidb is somehow less shitty because its ratings are less inflated then you must be stupid, so I really hope that is not the reason.
It's the same shit, so what difference does it make if I don't care about either community? I use MAL because the user interface gives me less cancer. I use anidb to actually find new stuff for its usually accurate tagging. Do you even know a Gonzo anime named Gatekeepers? Anidb was soooo great it listed an upcoming 'Gatekeepers 3' for the LONGEST OF FUCKING TIMES (which broke my heart because it was fake) so I've never had any particular love for Anidb.

I don't know why you need to try and pretend that it's impossible for these sites to be convenient in any way.

It's also much more likely that you'll spill some shit on a notebook or a hard drive will die than it is for one of these sites to go down forever without any notice.

There's no need to cry about it. Nobody is saying that you personally have to use facebook for anime little buddy.

Are you seriously implying that MAL is the only database available for anime?

And how often do you carry around your notebook that you'll spill some shit on it? Are you a slob? How often does your hard drive die that you can't back it up every once in a while?

Seriously you don't need to spend too much time on tracking your shows that you'll do something stupid with your list. Just admit you like using anime facebook for more than its intended function.

notepad fags, name all the anime that the voice actor for the deuteragonist of the show you last watched stars in -- and the show's art director and all the other works he did -- then add 3 of the shows that interest you to your list.

You have 1 minute.

>How hard can it be to keep a fucking notepad?
Harder than using MAL.

Notepad doesn't automatically update itself when I watch an episode, start watching a show or complete a show. Notepad doesn't allow me to sort my anime based on various criteria if I'm looking for something (a spreadsheet would, but that would require writing down even more information).

>>148023469

Learn to read. I never even mentioned any specific site and I clearly said I'm not the person you were talking to.

If I did use a notebook then I would use it to keep track of shows that were airing and I normally eat and drink while watching things. I'm not saying I typically spill shit just that I am just the type of person that will eliminate all unnecessary risk that I can.

A hard drive of mine just died this year. I never said they can't be backed up and I never said I don't back shit up. You read what I typed so don't imply that I meant anything more than what I typed.

I watch anime on my computer the list is right there on the website it's easy to click on something to look up information about a show which I do frequently.

For me it is the most convenient way of doing things. You can have as many notebooks as you fucking want but that doesn't make what I do not the most convenient thing for my situation.

I can honestly say that I use anime facebook for keeping track of shit and the database and that's where it ends. The community like most sizeable communities including 4chan is fucking cancer so why would I even want to bother. I also have some level of ocd so lists and shit feel good to my brain.

I've actually taken a look already at them before and decided that I don't need all of those to get by watching chinese cartoons.

It'd be actually more of a chore logging in, documenting, and rating all of the shit you watched.

Well you've done it once again. Iron clad argument. Also like I said earlier not once did I mention a specific site.

I think we all understand you don't like MAL but that doesn't mean you need to pretend that everyone who disagrees with you uses it.

All I've ever said is a website with an interactive list and database is better than a fucking notebook for me.

>>148025430
Okay? It might not be worth it for you if you've already watched hundreds of anime and would have to log them. I only had watched a dozen or two shows before I started using MAL with MAL updater. There is no reason for me to stop using MAL, simply because it's more convenient than the alternatives.

I was just saying anime facebook to refer to these sites in general like I've been doing this whole time.
I do use mal I don't have any reason to deny it I could just lie and nobody except me would know better anyway.
The reason it's not worth mentioning is I'm not saying mal is better than a notebook I'm saying any site with a list and database is better than a notebook I just used mal first so I'm still using it.
I'm not even sure what your point is anymore anyway if you actually have one.
You won't actually argue you just cherry-pick a few lines here and there and don't actually address any of the points I've made.
If you're trying to say it's somehow more convenient for me that I use a notebook then you're wrong but you're stuck on some bullshit to do with the community aspect which I don't take part in so you're trying to imply that I secretly do but again you're wrong.

But surely the number of the bad shows you finished is not even close compared to the good ones you rated highly. The mean would be above the average.

>>148027290
That doesn't make sense because once a time you will watch something that felt lacking and that's going to get a 5 or lower but you need to constantly watch shows that are 7 for you or more. Unless you watch everything so you get a ton of garbage to watch.

According to what you said, shouldn't you drop it?

But I underestand your point, and I can see cases where a bad ending may drop the enjoyment of a show.
This is why you leave a small margin and the mean ends up being betwen 5.3 ~ 6.
So you should still rate "really good" anime at 2 or 3, not at 7+.

It's so funny to see you make an assumption like that. My mean score is under 7 and I certainly don't watch any old garbage just to inflate my numbers or "pretend to be a critic".

Giving an an average anime an average score seems to be a crime nowadays.

I've even read threads where people actually feel "guilty" giving an anime a score lower than a 7 - as if they are going to hurt someone's feelings over it.

Honestly it's kinda hard to complete anime at the same pace as you guys. I spend way more time on episodes than I should because I keep rewinding on MPC so I can completely absorb all the animation and dialogue. I'm also always reading a VN, which are fucking humongous. Even entry level shit like Fate/Stay Night has a million words. for comparison, the Lord of the Rings trilogy has about 480k.

30 years watching Anime

Not going to stop now.

Easily past 500 series for couple of years. My current estimates are around 700 series. Been watching anime almost full-time since early 2000s. Almost any decent anime since 90s is something I've already heard of or watched it. Don't expect the shoujo/josei shit,most other categories are something I watch.

>>148036880
If you only have 700 after 16 years you are not watching it full-time.

>>148037020
Conservative numbers. Base 500 is something I estimated around 2010s or so. If I continue to watch 20 ( 5 decent per season ) series per year, that's additional 120, add-in 5 random decnet anime I find per year, thats total of about 150

You'd best reread my post. The keyword is 'decent'.

>>148037020
I've been watching since 2005, and I've seen about 500 TV series. "Full-time" just means "whenever I have free time", which becomes scarce as you get older. Instead of just sitting around all day watching shit, you have to claw your way up the ladder, 2 or 3 episodes per day.

People have been declaring that /a/ is "done for" since 2008. Just give it up already.

How do you complete 52 anime but only have 8 days even counting the other ones in the list?

Haven't really updated it in quite some time and I'm sure I've forgotten to add a whole lot beyond that.

Isn't it the same thing? I might have watched it in ONA format.

Not enough, but my time is valuable and I can't spend it all watching chinese cartoons, I average 6-7 shows per season plus 2-3 backlog shows per season. I'm at a point that I choose wisely my shows, I don't watch the first crap I see.

How can I know if I will enjoy something, without watching it first?

Patrician.

If you can catalog the amount of anime you've seen, you haven't seen enough. I've got 560 on my external alone, and that was since I started archiving. There's zero way I'm going to put together a list.

Genres that you like. Studios that you like. Manga/LN that you know about. Staff that you know about.

I haven't watched a non-seasonal show in such a long time, probably years at this point.

Even if you do that, it is not a guarantee stuff will be good. You eventually find yourself watching something that in the end is just average or below average.

It doesn't take that long. I just installed Taiga, spent an hour or so updating what was in my archive, then deleted the lot. Total came to 752 series (only 162 franchises was a bit surprising though)

Going back over them an doing ratings would be a bitch though.

>>148046070
But a lot of shows I really liked were pretty far outside of my usual comfort zone. Also >>148046221 has a point.

What if I've been cataloguing them since I started watching?

>>148019075
Should be around 1k, since I never missed anything airing since a decade ago, but I never keep track of it so who gives a shit
