for or against the spoiler in your animes/movies/games/book

[reyvard]

a great part of peoples don't like spoiler for my part the spoiler makes me even more impatient to continue the anime , games ... to do it for my own , surely the only field that I don't like it is when you read a book and especially conan doyles's or agatha christy books

one thing that I find strange is when in anime or series they show the previews of the next episode most of the time they want to want to believe that a character die but in real there is nothing like it that happen !!!!!

That's it right there. I hate that. Otherwise spoilers make me much more interested in how the story got to that point because you just don't know for sure.

yeah it's true one of the anime where you can't predict some or some event is surely code geass and the story is so dramatic !

I am for the previews in anime, at least, but not so much for movies, games, and books. One example of an anime that I saw recently has one of the things you point out with the previews. In 2 or 3 episodes during the preview of the next episode, they said that one of the characters would die, but they never did.

I think it's kind of funny when spoilers pop up in episode titles and in anime opening sequences and stuff, like when I watched Dragon Ball Z and that 3rd opening of One Piece. It always makes me wonder whether it was intentional or not. =P It happens a whole lot whenever they're adapting from a manga series.

I watch episode previews at the end of anime because I don't consider those spoilers. However, I don't read excerpts of the next book in a series that some books have at the end. I hate it when book summaries on the back cover (or inside flap if it's a hardcover) tell you something that happens halfway through the book. If something happens after the first 50 or so pages then it's a spoiler. I also tend to avoid video game trailers because I like to go into games not knowing anything about the story.

I like knowing the premise of a game's story, which is usually the stuff even the characters know at the beginning, because from then on, the story becomes the driving force of the game. I think one of my favorite starting blurbs to a game is probably the narrated introduction to Tales of Symphonia.

Let's just say that the game proceeds to have a lot of fun with it, later. :3

With anime, uh, I don't watch a lot of it anymore. But I don't mind previews after an episode at all, although sometimes they can be kind of jarring if they accidentally spoil something. Spoilerish openings happen too, but I'd have to say, it's usually a spoiler I'm looking forward to seeing and understanding later on.

Spoilers in movies? DON'T SPOIL MOVIES FOR ME. EVER. EVER, EVER, EVER. Unless it's an incredibly bad movie, then I can watch it for laughs.

Books? Uh, I think I remember getting spoiled in a book blurb once, but I don't recall the title. I just have this feeling it's happened before. Thankfully, most book blurbs I read try to be brief. Or, at least, give me something to look forward to.

I habitually read them before buying books anyways, so, I guess it's that not a big deal to me.

I hate spoilers. Hate them with a burning, firey passion. When I watch or read something, I am generally doing so in part for the story and to see the events unfold, and the impact is lost if I already know what's coming. Note that spoilers are different from foreshadowing.

[Dark Schneider]

Nah, I can't stand spoilers.
