Anime Watching Buddies Thread!

[Skitty-chan]

Welcome to the Anime Watching Buddies Thread!

Are you the kind of person who has no one to watch anime with? Or perhaps your friends aren't interested in the same genres you are? Maybe you just wish you could talk about a show with someone on Bulbagarden?

That is where this thread comes in!

The Anime Watching Buddies thread is here to help you find others to watch a select show with.


Starting a Buddy Group:

To start a buddy group, just post the show you wish to watch below. (Please look to see if there is already a group started). If you wish, feel free to post a link to the show's synopsis as well as the rating. (There are some younger users on BMGF!) You may want to include a link to crunchyroll or ANN in case anyone is having trouble finding the show. Also, you may wish to include how many episodes you will be watching each day, week, etc. or what episode you wish to start with (if not from beginning) though it is recommended that you decide this with the other members of your group.

Please note that we you start a buddy group, you become the group leader. (This really doesn't affect a whole lot.)


Joining a Buddy Group:

See a group you wish to join? Post in this thread which group you wish to join. I will contact the group leader (and other members) to notify them of your joining, though you may want to contact them yourself as well.


I am in a Buddy Group, now what?:

Your group leader should contact you and from there you should decide on how often you will be watching the show (how many episodes a day, a week, as it is airing, etc.) or on a date you should end. You may also decide on whether or not you will be starting right away and how you will be communicating your opinions on the show. This can be through VM, PM, skype, this thread, a thread that this been created for the show, etc. Remember when posting in this thread to USE SPOILER TAGS!!!!


I want to Join a Group, but they have started already! What do I do?:

Post in this thread and will will try and contact the other members. Hopefully, they won't be too far in and you can catch up!


Me and 17 Others Want to Be in the Same Buddy Group. Is that too many people?:

It is totally up to you how many people you want in your group. There are no limits.


We finished, now what?:

Please let me know so I can move your group to the completed catagory! Also, please feel free to post your (spoiler free) recommendation for this show.


I am still confused!!!!!!!:

Sorry. :(
Please or send your questions and we will try and work things out!


Please promote this thread so we can have as many anime watching buddies as possible!!! :)

(I'm not sure if there is a thread like this yet, so I created one. I have seen threads like this on other forums and thought it might be a good addition the BMGF. Let me know if there is any problems with this!)

Are people intimidated by the wall of text? (Sorry about the double post....)

Perhaps, if I post a few buddy groups, I might generate some interest?


Croisée in a Foreign Labyrinth: (Rumored to be the best from last season, hence why I want to watch it.)

Plot Summary: In the 19th century, a small Japanese girl named Yune arrives at Paris. She has traveled to France with Oscar Claudel to work at his shop, Enseignes du Roy. There she meets his grandson, Claude Claudel, a blacksmith who makes street signs for stores. Caught in a whole new cultural experience, both Yune and Claude learn a lot from each other while they try to keep the shop open despite the declining number of customers at the Galerie du Roy. Once a popular marketplace, many nearby businesses are closing as they are all engulfed by the waves of change.
