Do you watch it online?

[Smits]

Theo nly anime i ever watched was deathnote which was really good, i really want to start watching more animes but my internet connection leaves me buffering for a long time, unable to do anything else while i do.

So i can either download over night a whole series, but with them being so big in many cases this could take me weeks, or buy them.

Do you all watch them online or do you buy and watch them? it's a shame there isnt a tv channel dedicated to anime haha.

[Southe,]

Well my internet isnt really bad unless they punish me for downloading to much.

I watch Legal streams of some shows like One Piece, Gintama, Full Metal Alchemist.

Stream less important shows, Download Shows that i actually like and have no chance of ever getting on dvd.

And i buy the dvds of the series i really like when i can or sometimes just buy a boxset of a series to watch.

So im mixed but for Good series i always download or buy the dvds to watch it.

It would take me a good 45 mins to buffer a 25 min long show. Usually what i end up doing is buffering one and then start the next while i watch that, i can usually get it right so i can keep watching them.

The only downside is that if anybody else wants to use the toher computer, i have to stop buffering or theyll get the 'page cannot be displayed'

Oh, i have watched black cat as well which was great.

There used to be an Anime Channel but it aired shows at crazy times and only showed things dubbed so no one watched it and it had to close down.

I download nearly all of the stuff I watch. I only won't download a series if I don't think its worth it, in which case I'd watch it online instead. I haven't bought any anime in ages, but I do have quite the DVD collection so I guess you could say I buy it as well. I'm only going to buy boxsets in the future, however.

Same apart from like.. One Piece, Soul eater, other massive long series with will take years for a box set.

box sets work out cheaper oraround same price s singles tho which is good. saves shelf space aswell

If i wanna continue watching it i'm just gonna haev to put up with the long buffering, just means i have to stick to shorter series since it would take me years to get through some of the larger ones.

i've always just watched mine online, never downloaded

Boxsets are much cheaper than single volumes, especially if you buy from amazon.

We're not exactly well off so we currently get the basic free broadband connection from sky that you get for having sky and other stuff.

My paretns thought it was 8mb and i went by that until recently i went online an realised actually what we are on is only 2mb, and because of our location we only get 0.2mb.

Itd cost a fiver a month to get 8mb or a tenner to get even more, personally i'll pay the fiver a month but then comes the enxt complication.

Our house has been on the market for 2 years now, and we can't upgrade until we've moved, becaue to do so you have to go into a 12 month contract, and we might move to virgin when we move home.

The downer to this is that it's been 2years already, and a psychic who predicted a few things, said this would be our last home.
