I’ve also found that my interest in watching anime is fading and i probably end up watching less than 10 eps a week, average. Over a year ago, when I started college, I attempted to read manga on the bus (over 2 hours a day traveling, 4 days a week) but I had read all of it at least once before so that coupled with the fact that it made me self-conscious (everyone on the bus goes to the same college, people who like anime are rare) made me stop.

Later on, I started playing my DS but that got boring after a few weeks too. Finally, I started reading novels (which I pretty much buy instead of manga now due to far much reading material for less money) which lasted a month or two. Now I just to listen music and zone out.. sometimes sleeping. I planned on getting an iPod Touch for watching anime on the bus but when I found out the PS3 was pretty much the same price, I got that.

Ever since I got a car and stopped taking public transportation I stopped reading manga. The one hour commute each way was when I read manga, but now that work someplace where I needed a car I kind of need to pay attention to the road instead of finishing Berserk. It’s an odd twist that I had more time for manga when my commute was five times longer.

wongtcsg > I have a laptop too, but it isn’t logical to use a laptop when you can’t get any seats. Plus laptops can probably last an hour or 2 at maximum.

Busy work schedule made me resort to watching animes on my PSP now, while I ride the train. I always optimize my time, because I don’t want to waste about an hour of commute time just to… sleep or do nothing. Either I watch animes, or read mangas and novels XD

for a good converting program, I recommend Total Converter =3

Get a laptop, it plays any format.
And the screen is bigger than the portable media players.
Oh, what format can be use on psp?

Lol, i’ve actually try watching anime in my phone but the format is 3GP and how the hell am i suppose to see the subtitles? =P ahaha well i still prefer to watch it on the computer or the TV. Portable media players are a good idea but they are just too small for me =S. Well if only we can watch anime in the cinema just like in Japan. XD
