i watched when the first episode. same with ending. then it's depend. if i'm going to watch episodes 1 till 5, then i skip opening and ending for episodes 2-4. if i start with episodes 7 till 15, i just watch opening and ending for 7 and 15. for last episodes, it's a must for me to watch them.

Well same as you, I usually watched for the first and the second time the opening and the ending was played. But for the rest (except there is another new op or end) I usually skip them ^^ can't help but watched the series he he he

I always skip the anime OP and END.
I only watch'em when I like the Soundtrack.

I usually watch the opening. I like the music in anime. IT's always so good. I like the tune for it. But than again there are the anime which has weird anime openings. I just skip those, but I don't get those that much.

i like to watch the ending fisrt and skipinh the first part. coz things will play in your mind on how,what,who,when and where those thing happend... helps us exercise our creativity

wrong post

Sometimes, depending on what series I watch.

Hmm, sometimes I'll skip the openings, like when I go thru Bleach episodes on YouTube, or when I watch some of my Eureka 7 collection. I almost never watch endings, tho, unless they add a new song for a new season.

i'll watch both for a while than skip in the later ones

It depends on the opening/ending itself. I'd either watch it once (first episode, usually) and practically skip through it for the rest of the series or watch it once in a while when I feel like it. Sometimes, some of the openings/endings are so good, I purposely skip them so that I won't get bored with them Well...the only case for that would be the Loveless opening

watch it mostly. ^_^

This really depends on how many of the eps I am sitting down to watch. If i am watching one or two, I might watch the opening, if it is one I really like (e.g. Stand Alone Complex). But when watching in bulk, I also prefer to skip the opening.

I like to watch all the openings and closings everytime because it makes the anime feel more complete.

It depends if the opening or the ending is good. but other than that i ususally watch all anime opening and ending because i like listening to the opening and ending tracks.

It depends really, if it's a really good opening, I might just watch it. It also varies on my mood, sometimes I'm so anxious to just see what happens next in the anime, I'll skip it, regardless if it's good or not. A catchy tune also helps for repeat value. Like when I watched Rozen Maiden, the art and the music were addicting, so I usually watched it. Endings, I always skip EXCEPT for Haruhi Suzumiya no Yuutsu .. it was the only anime I ever watched the ending, haha .. People who've seen it will know why, the dance is so cute! Anyway, it all varies on a few things.

I usually watch the op/ed for mebbe 5 episodes or so, and then I start skipping it afterwards until it gets a new op/ed. Then i watch for another 5 episodes, and skip, rinse, repeat.

For me, depending on whether the opening & ending songs are good.
When I first watch an anime, I'll watch the opening & ending too. If they are no good, I usually skip 'em the next time I watch that particular anime.
If the songs are nice, I dont mind watching from the opening song to the ending song. even though it's the same anime.

instead of "even though it's the same anime", it should be, "even if it means the same songs again & again."

Most of the time I skip them, unless I'm obsessed with the music and sequence like in VOH, Utawaremono, or Nana. I always watch the openings and endings on the first and second to last episode. You never know when they might skip them altogether to make an episode seem longer.

Well I always watch the opening/closeing the frist couple of times then any time after that i skip ^_^. Unless it has a really good song that I like to listen to ^_^.

I usually skip the opening and ending but the first episode I'm always watching with both.
But there was one series were I not skiped the opening. That was "Star Ocean Ex" I love this song!

After the 50th time...then probably yes. Xb

But sometimes I like the song too much to skip it. I looove "Life if like a boat", the ending theme in bleack.

For most anime I ALWAYS watch the opening but tend to skip the ending. A lot of times anime endings are too cutesy poo for me. But some have really good endings too. Mystic Eyes from Escaflowne is so catchy!

I usually watch the opening and ending for the first couple of episodes. Then I start skipping and start watching it couple of times again when there are new OP's and ED'S

actually i always skip the op/ed except for erementar gerard has been the only anime i watched it from begining to end because the song is so coool

i usually skip the opening and the ending when i'm watching anime.
