Anime Openings We Just Can’t Skip - IGN Anime Club

1 Like

Online: I used to skip the endings a lot when I watched online to speed up from episode to episode. Now I make it a habit to watch them b/c you can miss some good music.

DVD: I only really skip openings if I’m in a time crunch. Always watch endings.

I watch the OP/ED once, usually ep 1 or 2, and if and when there is a new OP/Ed for longer series; then I just skip them for the rest of the series

I’m the same as tonka here. Sometimes there’s a show that has an OP or ED I like enough to watch over and over (in some cases, it’s not the song, but the images)

How Anime Sensitively Handles Trauma, Mental Illness - IGN Anime Club

There’s a saying that comes from the Model Railroading industry which also applies to a LOT of other things like Anime: "To make a small fortune in this business it helps to start with a large one."
