| Have you ever seen a show so bad.. Or maybe even so good that you just need to take a Hiatus from Watching anything? This happens to me at least 16 times a year |
| Monogatari Like lately with second season. It's one of my favorite anime series an all, possibly my favorite, but god damn that stuff takes a toll on you if you're immersed enough. |
☕ Truth be told, I'm quite proud of my house blend. To attain my flavor and fragrance, I use five different types of coffee beans. ☕ |
| 16 times a year? How long is your break? A day? |
| I don't usually watch that often now, last show I completed was Mushishi and it was really good. |
| Steins;Gate is the only anime I can think of where I need a grace period before watching another anime. If I don't take some time after watching it then I unintentionally end up comparing the anime I'm watching to Steins;Gate and it ruins the viewing experience. |
| I've seen some I've put on hold due to lack of interest but none that made me stop watching anime entirely for an extended period of time. |
| Actually, yes. Kurozuka pissed me off so much that i took a 3 month anime hiatus. |
Happy Halloween  |
| boku no pico made me go watch straight porn for a few hours. Does that count? |
| Never. |

For the past year ive kept comparing everything I watch to it. And I have yet to find something as good :/... Zeally said: boku no pico made me go watch straight porn for a few hours.

| Yeah, it's happened once for me. Sometime in 2007, while I was in the middle of watching Eureka Seven, and buying all of the DVDs, I started to slow down. While I didn't think the show was horrible, it just seemed not as impressive or cool as all the stuff that I had watched before it. Stuff like Paranoia Agent, Gantz... even slice-of-life stuff like Genshiken. These were all shows that I loved for different reasons. However, It seemed like most of the anime began taking a shift sometime around 2005 to adopt more cute, "moe" art styles that I wasn't really fond of. By 2007, these art styles were really popular, and creators, at the time, showed no signs of adopting any of the art styles I prefer. It seemed like every series I looked at had a horrible-looking art style, and this depressed me. So, after completing Eureka Seven, the only thing I watched for a while was Naruto Shippuden, which I also stopped watching eventually, as I slowly began to lose interest in it, completely stopping my anime-watching habits sometime mid-2008. I ended up watching the first few episodes of Sonic X sometime in late 2009, while working with a friend on a fandub project, but it wasn't until mid-2010 that I really got back into anime, after discovering Kara no Kyoukai. I watched all 7 of the Kara films, and thought they were incredible. This prompted me to start getting back into anime films, but later that year, I also started watching some anime series again. I started with Panty & Stocking, then moved on to Detective Conan, starting it from the beginning, after remembering how much I enjoyed Case Closed when it was broadcast on Adult Swim. It was around this time that I also briefly attempted to get back into Naruto Shippuden... watched up to the end of the current storyline at the time (Attack on Konoha) and never went back to it ever since. This brief break on anime really caused me to re-think the specific things I enjoy about anime, and has made me a bit pickier when choosing an anime to watch, but I think that's also somewhat of a good thing. |

| Sixteen times a year? That's more than once a month. What's the minimum length of a hiatus? Can't be more than a few weeks in your case. Anyway, poor translations made me quit a few times. Not an anime itself. If it's bad, I drop it and look for something else. |
Mr7Beans said: No. gissellebatista said: Nope. Much Insight. Very informative |
| No, never. |
| The only True Ending is the Harem Ending. |
| After finishing Holic in middle school, I took a break. It was a lot to take in at the time. |
 |
| LotGH episode 82 |
 |
| FMAB in 2010 since I doubted that another anime would thrill me that much again |
 |
| Breaks because the show was bad. After a lot of episodes of Fairy Tail I opened my eyes to how shit it was. Same goes for Toradora. I almost drop anime as a whole that stuff was SOOOOOOO BAAAD! Break because it was good. I toke huge breaks from anime 2-3 months after watching Kuroko no Basket, and One Piece. I got really sick of anime after zooming through 500+ As for KnB well lets just say I was on the basketball court nearly every day. |
 |
| Monster and Ashita No Joe from what i remember |
 |
| I wanted to quit anime after watching "kirito online". very bad anime. also in the past I quited anime for year after watching To aru majutsu no index. also I though about ragequiting this shit after hyakka ryouran samurai girls (should won "bullshit of the year" award). anyway Attack on titan fixed business, after that prety good show I m still into anime. |
| please sell me the condom, mister I would like to fuck my sister! condoms really worth to keep I will fuck her very deep! could you be my condom keeper? so I could try to fuck her deeper! please think I m stupid but please dont think I m a troll. -------------------------------------------------------------- http://protpisaenglish.blogspot.com/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ipzn0J8cfrY |
| Code Geass for me R2's ending left me dazed and i haven' t watched an anime since finishing it. |
| Last thing that made me do that was Madoka Rebellion. That was a long 5 hours. |

Agusloquillo said: Rosario + Vampire. Goddamn it. It shocked me. I was pissed off that something I thought was so original was turned into such a mockery. It's a bad adaptation of a great manga. |
 |
| Kimi no todoke went a break from anime for a week |
| Zero Suit Samus/ Meta Knight M2k DBZ |
| Actually, after I finished Elfen Lied (which was my first anime) I was so depressed that I didn't watch any more until a week later. Same thing happened with Angel Beats! and Kanon |
|
| If it sucks, I simply watch another one that's good. Why the need for a break? Same goes for a very good show. I won't take a break for this sort of reasons. |
| Aliis si licet, tibi non licet. |
| Bad I think Eyeshield 21 got me to stop watching other than weekly Naruto episodes a while back, don't completely remember though. A few times I would take breaks completely when Naruto went on a filler spree. Edit: in terms of taking a break when a show was good it would have to be One Piece after watching 400+ episodes over a 2 month span |
 |
| Oh yea, some of Shinsekai Yori's episodes made me stop watching for the day. |

| That happened to me recently during this season. I just watched Sonico's third episode, got sick of it, and dropped it. I was barely watching anything for a week or so afterwards and filled the void with manga. |
| Yes. I watched Shugo Chara. Season one was good... Season two was alright... and then I tried soooo hard to watch season three. I made it through one episode, and then ended up taking a six month break from anime. -.-' After that I watched a really amazing anime and started watching other anime again. I will never again try to watch season three of Shugo Chara. |

D: Evangelion made my mind hurt so I took a break from the computer LOL I only made it about halfway through Eyeshield before I stopped, will pick it up again eventually to give it a fair chance. The character progression was just too slow, in 60 episodes Sena only really learned how to do one thing different from the first episode and it didn't seem like any of the other characters had changed at all. |
|
| @gombo: Try out the manga! It's so good and the art quality is top notch. Idk about the anime but the manga pacing is fantastic as well as the character development. |
| Evangelion's congratulations ending ( I don't know if you can even consider this a spoiler) because it made 0 sense. I took a long break because I couldn't believe i marathoned through that crap. |
| So I just watched NANA..... Immediately ran to read the manga... Found out writer is sick and canceled it.......... On to find the nearest sharp object for my wrists :/ |
| No, but some shows have been so good that it has made me not want to watch any more anime for the rest of the day. |
