What is a way anime has affected your behavior?

I was pretty much crying more after watching Clannad Afterstory

i don't think i was ever permanently affected by any anime but i do get hyped up and motivated after watching sports anime

I've gotten over my video game addiction because of anime. So I'm actually less recluse than I used to be.

After watching shokugeki no soma I learned how to cook.

I've not really had any changes since watching anime - or perhaps I have not noticed the changes myself!

The negative way

well, it helped my get my game addiction get away, and because of anime i wanted to read the original source, so now i am reading alot to
oh and it helped me get motivation to train alot to...because you always see those guys with like a good six pack and stuff...i for real think then ''if i train enough...maybe i'll get that body to''

I'm not sure if I've changed. Everything feels normal...

...or the people around me might have changed?

This is probably a broader answer than OP was going for, but I started watching anime around 11-12, so it had a pretty profound impact on my life (and probably tastes).

Like, my career revolved around anime for some ~8-10 years and I wouldn't be where I am now (gaming industry) without it?

so

yeah! ._.

I don't leave home anymore. Only for food.

I started playing a wind instrument because of Hibike! Euphonium. Whenever they ask me why I started playing I just say I really liked the movie Whiplash and got interested in wind instruments, although that movie is based about drumming. So you bet I'm never gonna tell anyone I'm here because of a japanese cartoon where angsty teenagers cry about playing an instrument.

But damn, Hibike! is one of my favourite anime now, and I still really, really like playing a wind instrument. I play a baritone btw, if you wanted to know.

Anime hasn't changed me or my habits... Seriously.

• I totally don't hate people.
• I'm totally not a a member of a some sort of waifu-cult that worships her, as she's our goddess.
• I also totally don't procrastinate more than before now. Really.
• And I'm not a coffee addict by any chance.

As you can see, I'm a normal person. Don't send help. :3

I can't stop saying nani

Spending too much time in front of a screen...probably an extremely unhealthy amount of time honestly

i got into cooking through anime! i always feel inspired to try new recipes after seeing them in anime and it's fun to cook and eat the same foods as my favourite characters

It's affected my behaviour in the fact that whenever I watch anime, I turn off the lights, lock my door, shut the curtains and enjoy myself. :)

Obviously joking about that really. Anime has affected my drive to learn Japanese basically. Back when I started watching anime, there were quite a few shows adapted from Light Novels that failed to adapt the source material, and I wanted to continue the story.

Only for me to go online and look for an offical translation and rarely find it (this was several years ago, now plenty of of LNs get offical translations, either from the start, or from hiring and paying a fan translator and continuing from his/her work, but back then, and still now, there are plenty of LNs that look interesting, but don't have offical or fan-translations, even if they have had an anime made for it (since it wasn't popular enough/made enough money to give reason to officially translate it)

So I decided to get off my ass and learn Japanese to get rid of the middle man. Fast forward to now, I am doing Japanese as a major at my University, and I am currently at a lower intermediate level, and enjoying it very much. So in a way, Anime, and my subsequent interest in LNs due to it, it really lead to me having the drive to learn Japanese and have fun using it. Not to mention it jump started me into writing my own LN style Isekai novel I am working on for fun, and got me into wanting to do more drawing, especially anime styled ones, and slowly getting there even if my current drawings suck. :)

I'm even more motivated to learn to play piano and bass guitar because of K-On! and Shigatsu wa Kimi No Uso, no joking.

new game! literally reminded me of my passion for making games and
anime in general made me get into art which is something i never really tried cuz i was always like ">muh i suck and will never get good"

i don't go outside

Im a depressed introvert, what else do you need to know

anime is my anti-depressant

Nothing much really, it's just my reaction into certain things changed.

I've read some classic literature due to Bungo Stray Dogs (I did read some before that, but was bored out of my brain in doing so). The crowning achievement of the lot would have to be readingCrime and Punishment, since I don't really care about Russian stuff.

I tried some different Ramen because of Ramen Daisuke Koizumi-san

Well, I now have to remain silent about the series I'm watching. So I became "that guy who doesn't watch any of the cool (live-action) series everyone always recommends me all the time" because I don't care about those shows.

This went along with a change in Anime productions, as the only actually popular things are series I mostly find embarrassing (and bad) and don't want to be associated with since I prefer watching older (and not perverted) stuff.
It's easier to not talk about anime, than to try explaining why the stuff you watch is not like the stuff everyone knows about. Thanks for the stigma, producers.

Therefore:

• Rule 1 on parties: Don't talk about anime unless an ignorant soul brings the subject to the table.
• Rule 2 on parties: Don't express ANY opinion about the usually named suspects (SAO, AOT, FranXX...).
• Rule 3 on parties: Better you don't talk at all, the other person probably won't like the same stuff you do and you don't want an argument about taste with tipsy people. They wouldn't understand that. They're probably not even understanding that anime can be something else than Shounen.
• Rule 4 on parties: Express your opinion only as an attempt to keep public safety. For example to save an innocent bystander from having to watch some utter garbage because the ignorant wants to make him (more often: her) believe that this one particular show is anime and all and everything anime is like that - and that the innocent therefore has to watch it at all costs.
• Rule 4 bis on parties: Bonus for this case: should the ignorant be drunk, you can relativize his opinion without him noticing.
• Rule 5 on parties: Don't be the ignorant. You have to be better than the one who "watched 6 anime in his life, but, truly, anime is the absolute best thing that ever happened to this world". Stay calm, moderated. Let other people like what they want. Express your opinion in a constructive way, don't brag about what obscure shit you saw. Be open to suggestions, but ask why they're supposed to be interesting.
• Rule 6 on parties: Always try to adapt the subject so that the innocent bystander can keep up and understand what you mean. Talking anime should be no different from talking about any other kind of show.
• Rule 7 on parties: In case of emergency, pretend to be an innocent bystander. This is your last resort in case the ignorant becomes repulsive so, keep out of the discussion as long as you can.

And I totally didn't make up theses rules spontaneously to write this post but, damn, that one party really left its mark.

not permanently, but after watching an episode of a sport-oriented anime i get really hyped and motivated !!
of course when i actually go outside to do sport i am motivated for around 10 minutes before i say fuck this and go back to watching the sport-oriented anime and it just continues
