What's your guilty pleasure?

[thesilentman]

I read Nana to Kaoru, and it's the only romance manga I will follow. Don't tell most people who know me. =D

 

[Nihilm]

I guess mine would be the "Ore no Imōto ga Konna ni Kawaii Wake ga Nai" anime or in english: My Little Sister Can't Be This Cute

Monster Musume no Iru Nichijou. I normally despise ecchi harem comedies (and I may have been fairly outspoken against them), but this one's got lamias and mermaids and centaurs! Also, my centaur fetish.

It's funny, I just discovered this the other day. I'm in the same boat as you, I haven't really enjoyed a harem show since... well, Tenchi Muyo, I guess. But the hook that all the girls are monsters really sets Monster Musume apart. Plus, it's actually funny.

Of course, I'd never admit to anyone I know that I read it. Mostly because of... well... everything that HAPPENS in it.

Also, I enjoy this:

An anime called Say "I love you".

I'll just least this here. But I rather agree with David Grohl. as long as you are not hurting anyone there is no reason to feel ashamed of anything

I agree 100%

Corey taylor basically says the same thing in this vid. I have a feeling some of them are piss takes but still proves my point

If i was pushed to say something id have to say "prince - rasberry beret" im not guilty because i like it (a lot) but from an outsiders perspective it would be my guilty pleasure

Of all the friends I have that watch anime, a whooping two, I have to hide that my favorite animes are romantic comedies and harems. The only anime my friends think I watch are Fairy Tail, Sword Art Online, and Death Note. Now I enjoy them but I also enjoy animes such as: KissXSis (not proud of this one), Baka and Test, Hanganai, and so many more.

So you might say romantic comedies and harem animes are my guilty pleasure.

Yeah, I agree with him too. There's nothing I am ashamed of liking, and I'd have no problem with admitting it.

 

[sanquin]

I have a guilty pleasure or two...but why would I say them here (a PUBLIC forum) if I didn't want to admit them in public?

Agreed. The only thing I'll keep to myself is sexual stuff.

And the fact that I watch Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt. To non-anime fans (and ever to a lot of anime fans) just the name is enough to put you off but if you get past that, it's a very enjoyable and entertaining show. It's hard explaining why the cartoon you're watching has moaning and sex noises in it though...

Everything else though is out in the open. I love manga/anime, I'm a gamer, a musician and I get passionate about politics. I don't tone down my personality for others.

 

[lacktheknack]

Every day, I do hard workYes, actually, lift weightsSometimes, actually, play hypermasculine gamesNot too often, actually and have alarming amounts of sexNot actually.

And then, I'll look around, wait for everyone to go away, then I'll curl up on the couch, wrap myself in a blanket, put my dog on my feet, sip a cup of soup and read "Pride and Prejudice".

I can't help it. It's a disease.

 

[Nouw]

Don't have one but if I did, it'd differ for the different groups of people I'm with. When with musical friends, Hip-Hop could be considered a guilty pleasure. When with my 'dude-bro' friends, My Little Pony could be considered a guilty pleasure but you know what?

Fuck.
That.
Shit.

Not a single fuck was given the day I said I liked listening to K-Pop or playing Katawa Shoujo.

I um... well... I loved Metroid Other M...
I mean, it was the first Metroid game I played all the way through, so I didn't have much of an idea of how I thought Samus should be, but to be honest I had a blast with it. I quickly got used to the voice acting, I actually enjoyed the story with its plenty of twists and turns, I thought the game play was very fun and it reminded me of Castlevania, a series I played a lot, and I even loved how gorgeous the game looked at points. Plus.. well I kinda like bad ass characters with emotional problems. I think it makes them more relatable.

And I hoped this thread wouldn't turn out to be a fetish thread.

fetish threads get me off

Dave Grohl is my man crush.

I'm proud of who I am so I don't have guilty pleasures.

 

[SouthernStar]

Enjoying really advanced RTS games like Victoria 2. People think I'm like a super nerd or something lol.

 

[stormeris]

Watching cat videos on youtube.

 

[Angie7F]

Chatting with random people on the internet.
I mean, it is not online dating. Just, chatting with random people. thats all.
I find it to be interesting to pick other people's brains.

Music by DJ Splash, I know I shouldn't but it's just.....

I suppose that I wouldn't want to admit to someone I just met that I can enjoy a good shounen-ai romance anime just as much as a good regular romance anime. Granted there aren't that many good shounen-ai anime out there, most are far to rape-y with that uke-seme dynamic. But there are some decent ones like Junjou Romantica or Gravitation. But I've found there are several pretty good shounen-ai manga stories. Seven Days was a pretty good read as was Cafe Latte Rhapsody which was really sweet and cute. I dunno, people may think that's weird as I'm a heterosexual male, but to me a good romance is a good romance whether it's between a male and female or two dudes.

That's not weird. If I'm in the mood for a romance manga I tend to go for shounen ai as well. I hate shoujo and josei, the girls are all pussies who let the men abuse them, and in shounen and seinen it's all about the guys spying on the girls and being awkward but never accomplishing anything. At least in shounen ai (some of them anyways) both men stand up for themselves and act in a reasonable manner.

 

[Strain42]

Unless we're going into really really weird sex stuff, which I'm assuming we're not, I don't have one.

Guilty pleasure implies that I feel some level of guilt from enjoying it, and nothing that I love makes me feel that way.

I'm sort of the opposite. For the most part, people think of me as a cynical, over-serious mook who can't like fanservice and for the most part, I am. The only harem show that for some reason I like is Infinite Stratos (yeah, I will get flak for this). Let's put it into perpective, I can say with a straight face that Sword Art Online's Alfhaim arc is not as bad as everyone thinks (yes, even the odd incest part (cousins are less genetically related so it's less of a gross out)) but if I meet people for the first time and they tell me to share a guilty pleasure, I'd probably say Toaru Majutsu no Index since that would get me less questions.

Yes, I know the characters are both dumb and trope ridden. Yes, I know the story is horrible and the comedy is crude. But I like the Exo-suits, the girls are cute (I REALLY will get flak for this) and the main character is actually funny to watch
