Back in 2014, I had invited a friend around and we were watching twitch streams. We saw a game called "Osu" on there. Confused I clicked on it and I remember the stream being titled "Do not watch, I am bad at this game" And thus we clicked it. Saw someone pass a two star standard map. And the rest was history.

Well I was watching ToshDeluxe (a geometry dash youtuber) play osu!mania and I decided to watch some osu!mania videos. I was still not interested to play osu!std. When I finished watching RWBY, I searched up Red Like Roses Part 1 and 2 to listen to it for a while, and found that it was quite 'popular' in osu, so I gave it a try, and now, I play osu!

I was at a friend house and saw that she had an "osu" app on her desktop. Never asked her what it was. When I went home, I googled it, found it, and decided to play it.

The next day, I told her that osu is very fun and that we should play it together but she told me that she had never heard of osu. Turns out what I saw on her desktop was something else but my eyes somehow saw osu.

Found it by looking for "music games" and this required accuracy so i tried it waited two years and started playing again. Naisu

I was trying to improve my aim at other games and someone reccomended me "Osu!". After playing a few times, I really liked it, and Osu became my main game. For some reason, I took a break for over a year, but now I'm back XD

I downloaded Osu back in 2016 because of this one video. I don't remember but I never launched it and I uninstalled it this year. Then I saw "And some say he never played osu! again" on Youtube because it was on my recommendations. Afterward, I reinstalled it and no regrets :). Been addicted to it and grinded on this game for the whole Summer.

I was playing Forza Horizon 2 and was listening to some racing music, heard a japanese song, liked it, searched it up on youtube, all i found was osu, and boom there we have it. Normal human being turned into a weeb. sadness

Had my account since 2014. I only played osu since last year when I arrived in Japan (lol). I now play it often when I have time.

I used to play a lot of VRchat before it became cancer and there was this one VRchat YouTuber that played it. I saw it and I was blown away. I downloaded the game and didn't really touch it for a few months and when I did I loved it. now I'm here.

Found it through Geometry Dash

Six years ago I was bored one day and decided to browse on twitch. Was checking out the games section and I saw osu and thought it looked cool. At the time I didn't have a computer so I downloaded osu!droid and was grinding the leaderboard. It wasn't until a couple years later, when I first got a laptop and the first thing I did was download osu.

I was talking to some girl on Discord and I asked her what games she likes playing, and one of the ones that she said was Osu!. Out of all the games she said, the title of that one interested me the most so I tried it out then and there, after which I did not actually play it for 1.5 months.

I saw the doki-doki video Miraie did and i saw that some of his osu videos were in my recomended feed. At first i thought" gahh what is this weeb garbage" .I tried it out and used my spam e-mail to make this account and ended up liking it ,Thanks Miraie.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JBXV550GRDA

Was playing league a lot and watched anklespankin, tuned in to one of his livestreams and he was playing osu while in queue, he was actually pretty decent so i was like "woah wtf", so i started playing it because anyone who knew the game said it makes you better at league, and i think anklespankin did too (maybe in jest i forget) and i wanted to get better at league, funnily enough after i started playing osu i actually did get better quite rapidly

I used to play Overwatch and I was watching EFFECT's (overwatch pro) twitch stream and he uses osu as a warmup and to practice his aim for overwatch and I downloaded it to improve my aim in ow and csgo, matching my sensitivity as close as possible. Recently I've kind of moved away from fps games and I've focused a little more on osu because I really enjoy playing it and getting better.

I was actually watching a Stream from some random LOL player back in 2016, so I kinda got curious. Then I tried it with 2 more friends and loved it.

I love anime and rhythm games, and as I was searching for some new ones to play, I came across osu. I searched for an Android port, found opsu, used that for a few months, then started playing it on PC

I think that i saw video about osu or someone showed me the game long time ago back in 2016. I don't really remember things like that.

In 2012, my friend told me "I found a fun game, let's play it!" then I installed and started play with some of friends.
I enjoyed a lot of times with this game, such a fantastic memories ;-;
but I quit for 2 years because of my desktop pc broken in 2016.
End of September, I finally bought new one, it's a laptop though, and I back to osu!.
I'm practicing now and I realized it's not enough spec for gaming, so I'm gonna buy a desktop pc when I got a lot of money.
Anyway I'm enjoying with this game!!

My first encounter was on yt about cookiezie god mode.
i was wondering what is this and saw this hardcore autistic clicking game, and I said to me:
Give it a try :3 and now im here <3

It might sound weird, but I first really got to hear about osu was in r/place. I saw the drama surrounding it so I checked it out. When i got my new computer on my birthday (2017), I signed up and downloaded the game.

Now i'm here, 1 year later. Still clicking circles.

I play league and I saw BoxBox playing it. I didn't think much of it then but I kept seeing that one vine with osu! in it in vine compilations and got curious. Now I'm here

Oh what a coincidence. I was searching for random waifu stuff, found Miraie's videos, and kept watching them until I saw him playing osu. It looked fun, I tried, and now I'm stuck here forever :'(

Well i found it on an old video of Pewdiepie and basically wanted to play because it seemed fun but i was 9 and didn't have a pc. so about 4 years later i got a gaming computer and a little bit later i found the game called osu and remembered that it was the game from the video and started off being a no life. it's pretty neat.
