Well... mostly I watch my anime on AnimeSquish.org... so it would be online. And other times I would watch it on my animenetwork ondemand channel I have on my t.v.
i just will stick to the dvds and youtube
I use to watch them in some sites that are providing them free.
But i am thinking about buying some DVDs of One Piece cause i like to watch it again and again.Here in Greece Tv don't show "serious" animes.Just animations for kids like Pokemon or Smurfs.
I'll usually watch it online, although I have started to buy the dvd's and boxsets. The problem for me is that there isn't really anywhere for me to get them, I mean there are few shops with an anime section but these sections are very small and the chances of it having something that I not only like but am willing to spend money on is slight. I don't really have that much money so I prefer boxsets because they're much better value for money
I buy the box setsand dvds depends whats in the store. then i'll get a few mates over have a coupla beers and some pizza and watch Anime. happens a little less now that we all have jobs or uni!

I buy the DVDs often and watch them on tv alot (whenever they are on). I have started recently a manga book collection. Mainly I watch/watched Sailor Moon, Tenchi Muyo, DB/DBZ series, Yu-Gi-Oh, YuYu Hakusho, Pokemon, Zatch Bell, Inuyasha, FMA, Ah! My Goddess, and Naruto.
I tend to go by the boxset route :3
Why? I'm too impatient to wait any other way... and get extremely paranoid...
>_>
<_<
Boxset for my favorite shows (like naruto and death note). Otherwise, tv or the internet..
I watch some of my anime on DVD like FullMetal Alchemist =]
normally though, I watch it on t.v ex: Naruto, Bleach 0=3.....but I also watch it on the internet because I forget what time it's on t.v. xD
Mostly I download them. It's quite expensive to buy all the animes and I love the shows that are currently airing. And not every anime will be published anywhere else than in Japan. So there is no other way for me. .-."
But when I really really like an anime I tend to buy the DVDs too. So that I can watch it again. >3 (Although I don't like that it's always dubbed - I rather watch the subbed version on the DVD ^^)
I always buy DVD-s, because I buy them very cheap. My friend own's a quite large anime collection so he sells me me evrething at a low price. I have never asked him how he gets all those anime but my instincts tell me I shouldn't. As long as I buy DVD for 1,5$ everthing is OK.
I buy DVD at a time, and I watch it mostLy on my computer, aLso.. when I Like the Anime that is airing at a specific channeL.. I watch that too.. :-)
I picked Television and Youtube.
I used to wait for my favorite anime to play on television. I watched whatever Cartoon Network and Adult Swim would throw at me. When I got Dish network, a whole new world of anime was opened up for me, and I watched more diverse shows than the ones I grew up on.
When I finally got access to the internet, I found some sites that would let you watch full episodes for free. Now I just watch anime on my computer instead of on t.v. I am especially fond of the anime abridged series that are on Youtube.
I don't usually buy anime sets on DVD, but I will buy the movies. I will especially purchase anything that Hayao Miyazaki makes. That man is a genius in my eyes.
well..i usually watch anime on television..but i also buy it's DVDs and download it from various sites including youtube.
i used many references to add my anime knowledges..
I watch them on TV when they broadcast them and I'm at home(in this period very seldom).
Otherwise I search for them on youtube and on the web, but only if I'd like to watch series that are not already bought in my country.
i usually download first then buy the boxset if it's worth it ;)
actually all of the above although I generally download first then pull the curtains turn the lights off and sight in the dark with no clothes on(but that's just me :D)
This is basically what I do. DVD sets are too expensive to buy without really liking the series in question, and there are honestly a lot of mediocre titles that I've watched a couple of eps of that I'd kick myself if I'd paid money for. Then there's the matter of great series that never got a proper US release (as far as I can tell, Diebuster only got released in that horrendous movie edit). For the ones that are good and do have US releases, though, I buy when I can. It just annoys me that part of that price is for the dub (which is something not good to me, to say the VERY least).
Well, this is how I answered the question in this thread initially....
But that was three and a half years ago. >_<
Nowadays, there's very little anime I actually watch on TV, though that's not entirely my doing. The only anime I watch on TV now is Monster, which I have to go to my girlfriend's house to watch, as my cable provider no longer gives me the SyFy channel. -_-' (of note, yes--I DID finish Monster when I was downloading it all those years ago. I'm quite obsessed, though, and want to watch its English dub on TV. I'm also buying the boxed sets as they come out because of how awesome it is). That's really all I watch on the actual television, though.
Now, much more of my anime is brought to me via streaming sites (specifically, Adult Swim in the past few years and FUNimation more recently). Thanks to Adult Swim's site, I managed to watch all of Death Note, plus both seasons of Code Geass at my own convenience (though, with Death Note and the first season of Code Geass, I ended up watching them weekly/as they were released, anyway >_<). I've since dabbled on Anime News Network's streaming services (I started watching Gundam 00 on it over the summer, but I've yet to see it through to the end), and now FUNi has been providing me with two of my latest endeavours, namely Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood (awaiting its return with episode 40 this week! ^^) and, at the suggestion of Kevin (Spike here on the boards), Higurashi ni Naku Koro ni ("Higurashi- When they Cry" is the dubbed name).
So yeah, that's a pretty beefy portion of my anime watching. I still do the fansubbed thing, too. I've been watching Hetalia (just watched ep. 50) and Cross Game (just watched 40) that way, too. Also of note, the new (and final) season of Nodame Cantabile will be starting this week, so that'll be on my list, too.
Of course, I still buy the DVDs, but mostly just in boxed set form (I -did- end up buying all of Death Note once they released the boxes, I already mentioned Monster, and I still need to pick up the other Romeo x Juliet boxed set once Borders has it off of back order). Of note, those were all shows I was watching fansubbed at some point (save for Death Note), so that goes to show that I do intend to support the industry by buying the shows I really like. The only single DVD releases I've picked up in the last year or so were mostly movies (a few Lupin III movies I hadn't yet acquired, the first Rebuild of Evangelion movie, etc.) The one exception was the one disc I was missing in my Eva platinum collection, but that was just because I started buying them years ago before the box was released and I only needed one more DVD to complete my set.
But yeah, the point of that is...my 2010 anime intake has seen a decrease in TV watching and an increase in streamed anime watching since August of 2006 (when I last posted in this thread). Let's see what happens in the years to come! :D
