I guess the "I wish I had a gf who liked anime" bullshit is coming back around

and as someone who has a gf who likes anime, let me tell you, it's great being able to watch stuff together

but y'know what helps?

NOT BEING AN ASSHOLE ABOUT STUFF SHE LIKES, THAT I DON'T
this doesn't just apply to anime, it applies to *your partner's interests in general*

you don't have to be a superfan of the stuff they're really into, but just being happy that they're happy about something isn't hard to do
ALSO

when they want to show or tell you about something they really like? pay attention, actually listen to what they say about it

it's legitimately not that hard
specifically bc she should have input in this: @teriarchibbles has been watching Inuyasha lately, and she knows I'm... kinda down on it, I'm not a big fan

hearing her thoughts while she's rewatching it is legitimately interesting, I want to know how she's liking the story
