Guilty Pleasures

You know you have one. Guilty Pleasure. When like something but feel guilty about liking it. Name anything that's a guilty pleasure for you.

For me, that's SpongeBob SquarePants.

Your turn.

I enjoy Pokemon games. And I'm twenty. And not nerdy at all. And by not nerdy at all, I mean nerdy enough to post a lot on SWF, and play Smash more than probably anyone else in the entire city that I live in, but like, I don't give off the nerdy persona in real life.

Yeah I guess pokemon is one of my guilty pleasures, I'm 19 and it was probably the last thing I got into as a child before I turned all gothic and moody.

I also like some "chick flicks" namely clueless and mean girls. Most films aimed at teenage girls are usually terrible, but these two are actually quite clever and funny.

I don't know? I'm 18 and player video games? I guess it's a matter of perspectives.

Like a lot of other people, I have to say one of them is Pokemon. The other is Avatar: The Last Airbender. I don't even watch the show, I just get the DVDs from Netflix. I feel that I shouldn't like it, it's American anime, it's Nickelodeon, but...I just like it so much.

I like to go seal clubbing.

This topic should be locked, because how can anybody beat that one :laugh:.

Guilty pleasure: daytime television. Like, Dr. Phil and those types. I wont say that there aren't plenty of episodes that I don't see and go "pssh, this is lame", but....yeah....

Why are so many people listing Avatar? Aside from the silly, obligatory Aang-Katara romance, its probably the best American animated show in the past decade. Its too good to classify as a guilty pleasure.

- hana yori dango
- love me if you dare
- the time traveler's wife

Anime like:
- vision of escaflowne
- azumanga daioh
- dragonball

Games like:
- pokemon
- endless ocean

Dude, hana yori dango was awesome. As stupid as it is sometimes. xD Escaflowne was a great anime too :]

As a 19 year old female, I spose pokemon should be a 'guilty' pleasure, but I"m usually quite open with it. :]

I ashamedly enjoy Yu-gi-oh and the GX version when it's on tv and um...Totally Spies.

I don't get guilty pleasures. Why do something if you are ashamed of it?

I can't think of anything I like that I wouldn't openly share....

Pokemon and Yu-gi-oh judging off of other peoples lists.

Girly mangas? I guess. I would join a conversation about them if they showed up somewhere.

My guilty pleasures, and I'm a guy just to let you.

I watch:
Japanese romantic-comedy dramas.
Anime that are in the genre of school life.
Harem anime.
I still watch Yu-Gi-Oh [TAS].
I read manga that are targeted towards girls.

I like:
Taking pictures at Cue [a place near me, where you take pictures in those picture booths like the ones in Japan].

So which ones do you read? I've been reading Koukou Debut and Lovely Complex lately.

I like how Pokemon is a guilty pleasure, but so many people are listing it here =)

Pokemon is only a guilty pleasure for me because I'm bat**** over pokemon stuff. I buy toys, plushes, and I even have a Skitty tank top D=

Biggest guilty pleasure for me is toys and a lot of kid things. I love children's books more than a lot of adult books. I'm not stupid, I just find the way children's books are written fun and light hearted. Plus, the easy read is great for reading quickly on the subway.

I didn't know this was the guilty anime pleasure topic


Guess I'm guilty for

code geass
melancoly of haruhi
fulll moon wo sagasite
monster
nodame cantibile
wolf/spice
clannad
ooki furikabbute
mushishi
suzuka


I guess those are the most embarrasing shows for an alpha male to watch.
You seem to be missing Lucky Star.
