The only problem with Anime that makes it hard for me is I work full time and have 15 credit hours. I really enjoy watching Netflix while I do homework because if I do straight homework I'll grab a gun and kill myself. Most anime has subtitles and so it's basically impossible to multitask.
That's too bad you weren't a fan of Attack on Titan. How far did you get? By ep 20 it's pretty intense.
If you know any good ones without subtitles and the English dub isn't going to make me want to shoot myself anyways, then I'm definitely open to suggestion

Do you have any good English dubbed ones on crunchyroll? Where do you typically watch all these shows?

crunchyroll is almost exclusively subtitled. the reason i like it is that it is easy to browe and that i can watch the newest episodes of naruto shippuden on thursday just hours after release in japan.
where have i watched most of these shows?
the bottom four shelves....
no...those are not anime figurines in my curio and no i'm a nerd. or perhaps that was sarcasm.
for anything that is not in my collection...
crunchyroll (for new stuff before it gets dubbed)
netflix (i subscribe on and off....sometimes i rewatch some old episodes on here. not a big selection though)
then there are the hordes of streaming websites. i listed a few i've used more frequently.. but there are others around. you may have to look around since not every website has every show.
if its a good anime i suggest buying the dvd to support the studio. its what i do. well that and i'm obsessed with owning a copy.
animestatic.tv (i normally use this one)
animeram.com
animeget.com

Haha I mentioned Attack on Titan a few-ish posts ago. Yeah I love it. Hate how it's 24 minutes long and they waste the first 4-5 with a recap and then credits. Shows should cut out all credits after the 10th episode. Such a waste.

the shows have openings and credits because they air on television.
just be lucky you are not watching a show like naruto which is 15 minutes recap, 10 minutes show and 5 minutes credits. or at least i've seen episodes almost that bad!
some box sets have a feature to play in marathon mode (i know dbz had this) which skips openings and credits.

I understand why they have them lol. The issue isn't the purpose, it's the necessity. They should at least cut back on the credits.
Off topic but like Game of Thrones - waaayyy too long.

i hate it as much as you do. at least on the dvds there is a skip function.
never watched game of thrones.
just watched strain on animestatic the other day... if you havent seen it then you need to watch as its pretty darn good.
on a non anime subject... the movie solomon kane was actually quite good as well on netflix.

@moeid97
the same could be said about any interest people have.
i could say why do you not like it? or why do you like cheese?
but i'll bite... and give a few reasons why i watch it
-the concepts and storylines are more interesting than regular movies or tv series. (most rely on special effects not story)
-it is not reality tv (honestly how someone could watch this is beyond me)
-it is cheaper to buy anime seasons then normal movies (though around the same price as normal series)
-i'm a fan of manga art & anime drawing style. this is more adult oriented than cartoons. they are not the same. think of it like "a scanner darkly" or "ironman extremis" which arent kids shows.
-anime tends to have long lasting seasons so you get to follow the characters as the story progresses. this doesnt happen in movies as sequels normally suck. this can happen in tv shows although there are only a few good ones worth watching.
generally the reason is because we like it. its not something easy to quantify just as someone may find it hard to say why they like the color blue.
i do watch normal television and normal movies as well but i only watch things that are actually interesting. i refuse to watch garbage shows.

moeid97 :
why do people likes anime? what special in it just a answer!
1.Bkz everthing is not film's graphical quality nor special effects!
A good story is much more important.(e.g: deathnote's mystery and storyline is much more stronger and much more complicated than Prison Break! ------> in my idea of course
2.besides anime series are shorter
(~>20 min) so ppl with little time can enjoy them too
3.there are many anime series for diffrent likings
4.Ask an anime pro for more

honestly not many anime move me. one that did was shonen onmyouji. you get attached to the subcharacter mokun.
its very hard to find physical copies of (well the later disks anyways) and its rather expensive as well. you can find it online to stream but i dont condone viewing it in that manner and wont provide links. its a very good watch though if you like good story and shonen (action) anime.
