Welcome to Find Your Anime Buddy, a hub where you can find others to share your anime experiences with by watching the same movies/series simultaneously and having interesting current discussions as you go! Here’s how it works:

1) Make a post in this thread stating what anime you intend to watch or have just started and would like others to watch with you - maximum of three anime at a time! Anime must have finished airing at time of request (if it is still airing, you don't need a buddy group - just join in the relevant Currently Airing Anime subforum thread).

2) I will add your request to the opening post like so:

[Cowboy Bebop] – requested by VivisQueen, buddies Sheex, Uriel, Sandbar (open)

3) Others who also want to watch that anime will post a request to become your anime buddy

4) You contact each other via this thread or PM and agree upon a schedule e.g. one episode every Thursday, or two episodes a day, or one-day marathon! :o I will add the details of what you decide to the entry for future reference

5) Watch the anime, share your opinions and have discussions as you watch in the Specific Anime Discussion forum, the What are you currently watching? thread, IRC (#anime-planet.com at irc.rizon.net), in a vent channel kindly offered by Pidjiken, or privately via PM

6) Don’t forget to make recommendations for the AniRec when you’re done and come back to make new requests! :D

Buddy groups can include as few as two people, and how you organise the schedule is completely up to you. You can also join as many buddy groups as you want. FYAB is a great way to meet others with similar tastes, check what others are watching/want to watch, and to have current discussions as you’re experiencing the show.

If you have any further questions, please ask.

Looks complicated.

Wasn't there an "everybody watch vote winner in a week and discuss" club?

Synchros are nice as well, meaning people meet in IRC and press play simultaneously. Obviously doesn't work across the Atlantic.

I'm stuck at Tutu ep9 and don't want to start over. I'd be game for:

Mahoutsukaitai OVA
Kaiba
Asatte no houko
Infinite Ryvius

VivisQueen · 01-10-2009, 03:08 PM

If your'e stuck, I can catch up and we can continue from ep 9 if you want. I'll add your other requests.

And it's not complicated. I just broke down all the steps for ease of reading. The short version is 'Post a request, and someone else will respond and join you, and you synchronise your anime watching'.

Voila.

Thanks, didn't want to clutter the list ^^;
The other links are Asatte no Houkou and Mahoutsukai

So, this must be the 3rd group you've started now. I think I have a new avatar for you...

I'll wait until someone puts up something from my W2W list, rather than overburdening the matchmaker. Great idea, though.

At first I thought 'Queen of Spades??? Is he casting racial aspersions???' And then I realised it's Queen of Clubs. I won't need to get my homies to bust a cap in yo ass in a drive thru - er, drive by.

Haha, couldn't resist. But I do so love your avatar idea.

You are a strange dude, my friend. LOL

In that case, put me down for Monster Season 2.

Seriously - great idea Vivis - as usual. I shall have to ponder on what to watch next. I have been in a void so far this year. A void. Not a single anime episode watched yet.
