Being that you're on MAL, chances are you're an anime addict. And I'd go further as to say it's very unlikely that you only watch one episode at a time.

So what is your guy's longest marathon of episodes? What Anime(s)?

My longest prior has been Claymore episodes 8-26 in a single sitting, but I think I topped that today by watching the entirety of Accel World, episodes 1-24, and the OVA in a marathon.

DEFINITION: In this instance, Marathon is defined by watching X episodes over Y amount of time, where there are no breaks exceeding 1 hour.

Well, I don't think anyone is proud of wasting an entire day or more watching a series, but I enjoyed the HELL out of it.

Around 35 episodes, though I can stay up all night and watch more but I always go to sleep at the same time.

While it doesn't count in this thread, I watched all of One Piece(570 eps) + 11 movies + all specials + all OVAs in about 24 days.

Code Geass, 18 episodes in a day. I usually watch averagely 4 - 8 episodes per day so that 18 episodes a day was the longest marathon I ever had

Yes that's probably true..

Side note: I remember something else I actually spent around 14-15 hours in Strawberry Panic! but that is because I took a small break during the last few episodes, so I suppose I wouldn't count it as a marathon.

Over the summer, when most of my anime watching takes place, I was watching somewhere between 12-16 episodes of some series a day. I watched all of the Kara no Kyoukai series in just two days (granted it's only about 10 hours or so).

I really, really can't marathon. I get bored if I watch more than six or so episodes of one thing in a day.

The closest I've ever been to marathoning a series would probably be Angel Beats in two days.

I Once watched all of Higurashi(original Series+Kai+Rei+Kira etc.), Nisemonogatari and the second season of K-On! in one very, very long and weird sitting. The dreams i had the days after that were just hilarious. On another occasion i watched all of Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei in one weekend. Oh, the headaches!

Yeah and last year i re-read all Detective Conan chapters(about 800+) in one go, sacrificing about one week of my spring break.

You could say, i love marathoning.

Yes I accounted for that. (20 * 100)/60=33.3 hours. That's with a generous 4 minutes taken off each episode.

Geez, with people saying stuff about the people who have watched 30 in a day, I worry for myself..


Something in excess of 100 episodes of one piece in one 'awake period' stopping to get food and drinks. I ate whilst watching. It was probably close to 120. Didnt take any breaks over 5 minutes for 40 hours /shrug.

Poll really needed some higher choices, as its not that unusual for people to hit upwards of 50 and theres a few of us saying near or over 100..

I finished Season 1 and 2 of Hidamari Sketch along with the specials in a day. So that's about 30 episodes.

I watched all of Strike Witches in a day (24 episodes and the movie) and I have no regrets at all. It was amazing. I just couldn't stop watching. I felt really sad when I was done. Oh well, I guess I can rewatch it. Plus there's Vividred next season and Season 3 of Strike Witches soon after that.

I also marathoned Evangelion when I had a sick day. Biggest mistake I've ever made. It was the most depressing experience in my life. Thankfully I felt a bit better when I marathoned Steins;Gate the next day. Okabe's antics cheered me right up.

Other than that I can recall marathoning Madoka Magica, Bakemonogatari, Clannad (Just season 1), Cowboy Bebop, Beck, Gurren Lagann, Durarara, Baccano and Oreimo.

Marathoned at least 60 episodes of Bleach. I've also watched multiple series' back to back in marathon sessions that easily topped 50 episodes. I'd say around 70-75 anime episodes is my longest. I'm going to do a 100 episode run in the near future, soon as I can get the time.

-+ 50 episodes is the best I can watch in a free day (without skipping/fast forward it!). I marathoned Gintama (200+) in less than a week. I also marathoned Prince of Tennis series (PoT, Shin PoT, all OVA, movie, specials) in a week, FMA:B also in 2 days, oh and Katekyo Hitman Reborn in less than a week. As long as I love the anime, I can watch it all day ^_^

It takes about 3 weeks to watch 630 episodes, assuming you still take care of yourself and sleep 8 hours a day.

So in his 24 days a 'normal' person who's on vacation or something can watch around 720-768~ episodes.
