Me:I'm gonna be productive today and update three chapters to at least two of my books!

Also me:YURI X VICTOR FOR LIFE!!!

Alright I'm going to tell you all the stages of obsession over anime, for me at least since I'm bored and need something to do other than flood my phone with pictures of Yuri on Ice.

Stage 1:Finding the anime
This is probably the second most important stage of obsession. Picking a good anime is hard to do, I have to find the anime and decide to watch it, which can take some time. Which brings us to the next stage.

Stage 2: Watching the Anime
This is the most important stage. If I don't like something about the anime, like the art style of voices, it could turn me away completely. But if after a couple episodes everything else is so good I have to keep watching it, then I'll most likely become obsessed with it. I'll binge up to an entire season a day depending on other life events. If I stop watching it, it's as if I'm dead. I need to finish it, and yes need, I will probably have mental breakdown if I don't. Or maybe the anime isn't so good, and I stop watching it, which happens all too often.

Stage 3: Finishing the anime.
This is the toughest one to go through. I've watched all the episodes and movies, and there's no more. It's either ended or waiting for the next season. I might go through denial and all I can think about is the anime I just watched. It's as if I'm a leech but I've already sucked my prey dry. This can lead to many bad things and this brings us to the next stage.

Stage 4:Finding other sources like fanfics.
I'll go on Wattpad and the general internet to look for random stuff about it. I'll look for one shots, memes, pictures, anything. It's a sick obsession but at least is feeds the leech that is me.

Stage 5: Slowly moving on.
Unless a movie or next season comes out, I'll slowly move on from the anime. I'll stop looking at fanfics, stop flooding my phone with photos of the anime, and move on. I might find a new anime to watch or just stop completely until I decide to watch another.

But seriously folks my phone is now flooded with Yuri on Ice photos of memes, ships, and characters. But c'mon, just look at 'em!

 But c'mon, just look at 'em!
