Can the plot of an anime really upset or please you with the development?

[DarkAngel]

i hear most of the people saying this lol
but sometimes when i follow an anime for a long time, it can certainly have that effect on me. what about you?

I would say that it does, but for me, it is normally being motivated by the anime to achieve stuff. There is a good group of us locally that watch anime to get pumped up for the gym. I don't really know if that truly works with the point of this topic, but the plot does play a role in it.

That actually is a solid perk when a show is really good.

having to watch the anime as a group gives you motivation and we can make new friends too

Actually, I'm watching the original Mobile Suit Gundam while contemplating some major changes in my life. Don't judge my odd methods lol.

Sometimes yes.
When the protagonist is very dumb or being a jerk to no end, I usually drop the anime for good.

One piece fans stay true while others like High School dxd suffer.

I read something similar in MegaTokyo years ago. Piro (Fred Gallagher) would read manga to help him through life's little dilemmas. There's quite a bit of sagely advice in the form of Anime/Manga, and I believe many people underrate it, because "oh, it's just comic books or cartoons". Just because the plot involves a teenage girl or boy, doesn't necessarily preclude an old man or middle-aged woman from facing a similar situation during the course of their life.
