I hate anime...
But... maybe I can learn to love anime?
Maybe it's okay for me to like anime?
That's right.... it's anime, nothing more, nothing less
I watch anime.
I want to watch anime...
I want to watch anime!
And it's okay for me to watch anime!!

I'm going to answer the op seriously and I hope I don't regret it.
As someone who avoided anime like the plague until almost two years ago now I'll offer my thoughts. I never really watched anime when I was younger aside from pokemon and DBZ but I decided I wanted to grow up one day and stopped watching them. Anime didn't really come onto my radar until I was in high school and the really weird and socially awkward people would talk way too loudly about it. So I made the connection between weirdos and anime and never payed much attention to them. I remember they talked about Hetalia a lot and which characters totally wanted to date each other and whatever. It was also around this time I started spending more time on the Internet and the people who really liked anime there were also pretty weird and always talked about gross incest stuff and sexist poo poo which soured my perception on it even more.
When I first started watching anime my previous experiences with it made it so that I was really embarrassed about it. Of course now I know that was really dumb and it was nothing to be embarrassed about but my previous misconceptions about it were that strong. Now if someone asked me about anime I would say that I watch it but I don't go out of my way to talk about anime with people that aren't really into it. Much like other things, there are topics that are more appropriate depending on the person.
Sincerity is good so I hope you have no regrets about this post!
