Have you ever started watching an anime because of a girl that looked interesting?
Pic related.
It turned out to be a solid 8 in the end and I'm surprise there was no season 2.

I started the Monogataris solely because of Shinobu, and only watched as much of that verbose ecchi tripe as I did because of her and her sexy voice.
>>159357570
That's 90% of the reason why I pick up new anime.
Even what ended up becoming my favorite anime back in the dayTTGLI only picked up because I saw a girl with big tiddies and wanted to see more of her.
>>159357570
I only watch ecchi anime
>>159357869
I was about to call you a newfag for having TTGL be your favorite back in the day, but I just remembered it's a decade old now. God damn, time flies.
>>159357570
Only Sora no Otoshimono, and that was 7 years ago.
Damn.

Was 2004, When I watch for first Time one AMV of EVA and was awesome.
Sakura Card Captor was my favorite TV *show.
>>159358405
Did you have a stroke while typing this?
>>159358487
yes
>>159357855
Which girl?
Does it count if they ended up being a trap?
>>159357872
p much this,but i try to narrow it down to ecchi harem
>>159357570
When I pick up anime for reasons other than an interesting premise, it's usually for the OP/ED/soundtrack.
Re:Creators is the first show I can remember picking up purely for a cool character design. Usually I'll find something else promising in the 1st episode, but Altair's spinning swords thing/uniform/hair in episode 1 singlehandedly sold me on the show.
I watched Hibike Euphonium because of this picture.I expected more feet.

Not really. I mean i guess i could say Bakemonogatari, KLK and Lain. Though Shaft being weird, Trigger action and a stylish anime revolving around an interconnected cyber world drew me in more than the girls.
Gotta love Lain though.
>>159357570
I got into Monogatari thanks to doll and got into Fate because of [/spoiler] Rin[/spoiler]. I started watching Raildex because of Mikasa, Gabriel Dropout because of Satania, Dragon Maid because of Lucoa and KonoSuba because of Aqua, Tsugumomo because of Kiriha.
>>159357570
Just realize that the vast majority of normalfags watched flop dragon because Kanna.
Started Sakurasou no Pet because of Mashiro. Started Monogataris because of Shinobu.
Started Re:Creators because of Himegimi
Started GochiUsa because of Chino.
A lot.
I always try to watch whatever anime that has a twintailed girl in the poster.
>>159357690
This is a great show that absolutely nobody knows about.
I watched it because Maekawa looked interesting.
>>159357570
Chaika
>>159357570
I started watching anime period because of a picture with the twins from Nyan Koi. The one scene from the OP where they have their tails wrapped around with each other.
If I hadn't randomly stumbled upon that image while looking for porn I probably never would have ended up here or wasted away my youth.
>>159360656
Lurk more, newfag. Also, stop with the plebbit spacing.
>>159357570
that is my modus operandi for anime AND manga. If I wanted to watch ugly girls I would look at western comics and animation.
I watched Maria Holic because I thought Mariya was a hot girl
every time she popped up as a reaction image I wanted to know more about her.
she's not even my favorite moose anymore
yes
who doesn't
I started with anime as whole, when someone here on /a/ posted a haruhi foot pic. I never turned back on 3d feet.
Yep. Ended up not even being best.
>>159357570
That's why I watched that gay rapist spiderman show. The plot is about a fuccboi who emits pheromones that makes an entire town want to fuck him. No, really.
>>159360227
Yeah and these normalfags get mad when you lewd Kanna.
They legit took that stupid ravioli meme seriously.
>>159360979
you mean this one, senpai?
>>159360983
>plebbit spacing
I don't understand this new shitpost. Are you posting from your phone or something making the spaces look different? People have always posted like that.
maybe.
This was the best.
>>159357570
This girl.
Then I dropped it because the anime is shit.
>>159357570
sure, I do it more for the guys though, higher chance of it being worthwhile watch/read
>>159357570
What is Dagashi Kashi
>>159357570
Well, that picture certainly is interesting.
I think there are more, but I don't remember them.
girl has to be classy, not a fap bait
>>159357570
most recent one was Zero Kara
>>159357570
Is this a joke? That's pretty much every anime.
>>159357570
a lotalmost all of them
>>159357570
Why would you pick an image that isn't from an anime?
probably chuu2 for shinka
definitely mami for madoka
other than that, can't think of anything
>>159357570
That's like half my backlog.
>>159357570
90% of what I pick to watch every season is based on girls character design.
That's damn near all the anime I watch.
>>159357570
There are probably a shit ton, but the best was probably this one
>>159357570
Is there a reason to watch an anime other than it has a girl that looks interesting?
>>159357570
Only once.
>going through tumblr
>see a gif/video of huge heaving tits shaking from a recently aired anime
>start torrenting 1080p versions the whole seasons and cutting the episodes for that single chick
Ryoka (Ryotatas) comes to mind in recent memory.
>>159357690
This retard and tall girl were the best, at least after Oba-san. Anyone that preferred the autist needs to kill themselves.
>>159360900
but mai was the only redeemable part out of that shitshow
More than half the shit I've watched, I've watched because I liked porn of it first.
>>159363845
What even is the point of your post, anon?
Yes.
>>159363788
>browsing tumblr
What's wrong with you?
>>159357570
pretty sure that's the number one criteria most people use around here when evaluating whether or not to pick up an anime
most defiantly
>>159357570
Yesit's how I found my waifu
Picked up Love Live for Nico, and recently Yuushibu for Fino (not worth it). I don't do it too often, at least not for a single girl.
>>159359616
This is kancolle though, a mobage
>>159362597
>girl
Y-you DID read the VN right?
>>159357570
That's the only reason why I watch anime.
>>159357570
All the time. I have even picked up anime because a reaction image looked cute.
>>159364241
Same with me. I'm so glad about that. I knew she was perfect for me the moment I saw her.
>>159357570
I started Konosuba because of Megumin.
Was not disappointed.
Higurashi no naku koro ni, watched because of some pictures of Rena. Back then I used to like "Deres". Now this is just trash, Higurashi is one of my favorite animes though.
That's how I picked up Denpa Onna and how Ai Nonaka became one of my seiyuufus.
>>159357570
That's how I pick most of my anime/manga. It's very hit-or-miss.
I've picked up at least a third of all the anime I've ever watched because of a female character design that I liked. This isn't anything new or strange.
>>159358487
I was stroking myself while typing this.
I watched Hyouka because of this gif.
Of course
Picked up Monogatari for this. By the time we got to her I was sick of her shit, but I still enjoyed the show.
>>159364226
Why were you defiant about it?
I used to, now if its the sole reason i just read the doujins
It's how I got into anime. I started withNGEbecause ofAsuka
>>159357860
fag
literally everyone started dagashi kashi because of this
>>159357860
Similar situation but for pic related. Thankfully Karen ended up being one of the best girls
Pic related
>>159361391
She sure didn't
>>159357570
Nope but I read manga and doujins due to it.
Binge watched this series a few weeks ago, just for this cute little awoo. I was not at all disappointed, because she really carried the series even though she was a secondary character
>>159366425
Hyouka is in my backlog because of the Sasamori doujins.
>>159357570
Yeah, it worked out great.
Yeah, not been disappointed so far.
Aqua -> KonoSuba
Toga -> Boku no Hero
>>159370240
good taste
>>159369867
She was the worst character
>>159364226

>I started Konosuba because of Megumin.
>Was not disappointed.
Same. When I found out she was basically Mr. Torgue in loli form, I couldn't resist the joyous explosions.
Newfag test.
I watched Umaru because of Kirie but couldn't finish it. That freaking nugget man.
>>159357570
Yes.
>>159357570
This is the case 100% of the time.
>>159357570
Literally all the time, it's always been my main reason to pick up an anime.
>>159370395
You are the worst character in the show that is your own life.
>>159357690
It was shit but yeah, also watched it for the girl. Helmet was best girl.
>>159364412
>he doesn't know
>>159357570
the bulging wishes this was adapted.
>>159357570
Used too, now I pick up anime if I watch a cool fight scene from it. Picked up OPM, Garo and now Hero Academia in similar fashion.

I'm sorry I said your shitty token loli fetish character was the worst
>>159370395
Okay, baitfag, I will bite and also fucking challenge (you) to explain why the fuck you watched that series if not for Mashimaro. Did you actually buy into the main romance "plot" that was so garbage that they never even defined Hakuya as a character?
Surprised she hasn't been posted yet, but I suspect she get posted often enough.
Her visual design was the only reason I watched RE:. I didn't even bother to start from the beginning, just from when she first appeared, but then did go and watch from the start. Its an interesting enough concept.
Anyway, her visuals, to me look like she came straight from Black Lagoon, of which all the ladies were bad-ass and attractive. Honestly if you inserted her into BL I bet no-one could tell otherwise. Character and story wise, obviously the art styles are different.
The nice thing about her is that she is very emotive in a rather serious stern faced series, which is refreshing. Also the fact that she is a complete wild card keeps the show moving, as I think it could have quickly gotten a little dull and basic.
>>159357570
That's the only reason I still watch anime sometimes since about five years ago. It's the only value it has.
>>159361175
ah i need to buy tomato
thx anen
>>159357570
I started watching ZnT purely from the gif of Louise putting on her thigh high socks.
>>159373111
Thanks for reminding me that there are people who actually like the older sister.
Aw man, I want to, but I'm not sure.
She looks so cute, but I know this show gets dark, but I kind of like despair, but I'm not sure I want to get into Muv-Luv, but she's just so cute!
>>159357570
No but i play games like that one just for the abusive tsundere-loli archetype.
>>159357570
does anyone know the night setting anime with the MC who rides a motorcycle. I remember the show had cute girls and looked pretty good visually but I don't remember the name.
Mai Ball and Amano Megumi.
Apparently I'm into fatties this year.
Yes, and it was very worth it.
Yes.
>>159361475
i remember i went in expecting another higurashi but it was awful, music was neat though.
>>159368399

>>159363979
Shit taste
That's how i pick all my anime
>>159362099
I watched it for Tapris.
My god it was a slog after the first season
>>159357570
I watched bake only because of renal circulation and how cute snake was in it.
Now she is one of my least favorite girls.
I watched Working because of Popura but ended up liking Inami more.
>>159380225
>ended up liking Inami more
>>159377859
Good lad.
It was pretty good
Boy was I glad
>>159357570
Yes.
Sometimes, its great. Sometimes I'd like to kill myself.
>>159364760
I did as well. But it didn't take long until I realised that Aqua is better.
>>159357570
Fate/Stay Night for Saber.
>>159357570
I picked up Bleach because of the character designs
Show was hot garbage, but the absurd threads made it worth the watch.
It was fun.
>>159357570
yes
only disappointment there aren't more episodes/chapters
Yes, I try Saki spin off for Ako. Disappointed because lack of Ako.
>>159359505
I expect this from most anime
>>159359505
>>159359505
I watched Garden of Feet expecting at least some foot licking. I got nothing. I wasted about an hour from my life
YES, VERY MUCH SO
Saw this image on a forum 7-8 years ago and decided to give the show a watch.
Its now my favorite series of all time.
>>159373111
Shit nigger, I watched for benio
because I'm not a fucking lolicon
I was told Aoi Yuuki voiced her which was more than enough reason. I was crushed when I finished watching Overlord.
>>159385176
Need a hug?
>>159384803
Kagaku no railgun or Majutsu no index?
>>159385745
The franchise as a whole is my favorite.
Hell I'm a stickler for anything Kamachi.
>>159377859
>>159380903
She's just too adorable.
>>159385176
shame shes only in it for about 2 episodes and the rest of the show sucks an unrealistic amount of penis.
>>159381917
I saw a couple webms of her on /wsg/, decided to watch the show that night and enjoyed every minute of it. Thank you random anon for posting those clips.
>>159357570
That's a cunny if I've ever seen one.

Popura is a mascot basically. She goes through no character arc of her own while every other character does.
Literally the reason I started more than half the anime I watched.
>>159370317
Toga's one of those chicks you want to fuck for the rest of your life
>>159357570
yes, several
even droped several when the chara got btfo
>>159357570
i watched this show because of this gif
>>159357570
The design of female and male characters is important to me. (I'm heterosexual.) For instance I almost didn't watch Code Geass because I hated the Clump design. Then I realised that in that case, I didn't like the design because Clamp wrote weird mangas, but they didn't write the story of Code Geass.
>>159389784
.... Sorry I forgot: On the other hand I wouldn't watch Shingeki no Bahamut: Virgin Soul, just because of how the characters look like.
>>159389452
I like the "rubs eyes, then looks up* gif more, not that I've saved it. It's ridiculously cute. Do you have it?
>>159384803
Mah nigga. It was because of her i even started reading the LNs.
>>159391945
No but I can make it
>>159357570
I read F/SN in its completeness just for Sakura. I was a bit disappointed in how little relevance she has in Fate and UBW but HF made up for it.
>>159357570
>>159357570
I came in expecting a lighthearted SoL with no prior knowledge of the series.
I still came later, though, kek.Best girl, I regret nothing. Nao a shit.
>>159357570
started watching bakemonogatari due to nadekoAlmost dont regret it
Yes, many times.
Maka's design and VA did it for me.
I ended up enjoying it up to the shitty end.
>>159357570
yeah pretty much 90% of the anime I watch is because of a cute girl incentive.
>>159360979
same here with the anime Futakoi. The entire cast is pairs of twin girls in a shitty harem. Fapped to the whole thing.

Rasa's butt converted me into anime in 90th
I watched DNA² because of the top far left girl.
>>159357570
Actually, I would say that it's happening very often.
>>159397667
Uncomparable better. Older examples looks like shit. It doesn't mean that everything looked shitty like your examples, but it doesn't change the fact that character design after 1999 gotten A LOT BETTER. And only elitists will be denying this fact.
>>159357690
Ryushi best girl.
I mocked her when she said that we don't know shit about stuff around us. She used the example of not knowing how a telephone works.
Well, years later I grow my brain a bit and what the shit do your hungry asshole know. She was rigth all along.
Sadly, MC would end up with the autistic cousin, because that's how anime works, yes? Rem remembers.
>>159368188
The show just isn't good. Most of the stories are boring, the best characters don't get enough screentime, the flashing text got old after two episodes, and the only actual appeals are Shinobu and the well done sexual segments. It's softcore porn that wants to pretend it's intellectual and deep by filling 95% of the time with witty dialogue that wears on your patience.
>>159398816
I dropped after that bullied girl's arc. The seriousness of her issues was so downplayed to fit the show's format that it made me gay.
I felt it was going to shit for a while, but that cemented it.
>>159398816
Did you actually read this he dialogues? With good, not cartel subs?
If you don't like dialogue driven series, you should go back to your shounens.
Monogatari is definitely not my favorite series, I'm not an elitists who is watching everything for super deep story, but monogatari has brilliant atmosphere and it's generally fuckin good.
>>159357570
>Have you ever started watching an anime not because of a girl that looked interesting?
ftfy
>>159398915
I never made it that far. I don't remember which exact -gatari I stopped on at this point When my waifu isn't enough to force me to watch a show, you know it's not that good.
>>159398960
>muh buzzwords
Yes, I did. I don't remember the exact subs I used, but I do remember they were recommended by /a/ in the threads so I figured they were pretty decent. I actually do like dialogue driven shows, and initially that was a large draw of the show for me. The issue is that a lot of the cast really isn't interesting enough to warrant the huge amounts of screentime they get or the conversations they are in. In addition, a lot of the dialogue is meandering and meaningless, leading me to essentially watching banter with varying degrees of wit and humor on screen for hours while waiting to get to the people and parts I actually liked. I really only ever enjoyed Araragi with Hachikuji and Shinobu, and Kaiki was always great. Some of the initial parts with the other characters were decent, but they quickly overstayed their welcome and became a hindrance to the show, rather than a plus; not only that, but I just outright disliked several characters like Cat and Snake so getting through their portions was especially dreadful. The show has excellent elements, it's just too schizophrenic for my tastes and devotes far too much time to characters who do not deserve it.
I also dislike the nonlinear storytelling that the series utilizies heavily, so that didn't help either.
I think the only shows I've picked up not because of the girl(s) are Mushishi and Tatami Galaxy.
Sad thing is they're probably the best shows I've watched.
>>159399464
That's a sign that your tastes are shit and that cute girls rarely make for a good show.
>>159399494
>your tastes are shit
I'm pretty sure me fapping to 3D East European anal porn stars is more a sign of my shitty taste.
>>159379815
*couple of episodes
>>159357690
Worst girl, kill yourself with that shit taste.
