| During the week reward yourself with 1 episode /night. Schedule relax times: maybe in the AM you study n shit, but leave the late afternoon open for a couple hours. You will need will power and you may need to put some titles on the PTW list, especially with a 50+ series season coming up. From experience- never watch shows while studying. Never watch episodes in between studies. Even after your scheduled break, recap on what you've studied before bed. If you are working 60+ hours a week, studying and doing exams, may I also recommend speed? Just do hard drugs to keep you going. Sleep is for the dead. |
| I make the time... it´s not like that class or assignment were really important anyway.... |
| so your studying while working 60 hours a week? that's ridiculous. how about finding a job where your work normal hours like 20-35 a week |
| There is always a time for that. Trust me. |
 |
| Look every week at the amount of Hours you can miss at school and freedays at work. After all this you don't do what you promised to yourself and skip more hours and take more free days. |

| I'm not really addicted to anime. I just love watching it. It is much more entertaining than any TV series or a movie. What happens if you don't watch a movie for a month? Nothing special really. What happens if you don't watch an episode of anime for a month? Also, nothing. But I watch anime almost every day because it is just much more entertaining and more interesting than other things. But if I had to pause for a week, ok no problem, I'll easily get through it. |
 |
| Watch 10 terrible anime in a row. Watch out for gag reactions every time you open up MAL. |
 |
| i think you need to go to anime detox if you're that addicted and it impedes your day to day life |
 |
| You can always just pause watching, it's not like anyone else is checking. |

| Well I simply don't watch anime when that happens since I can't enjoy them anyway when I'm so occupied with tasks. I need to have a peace of mind to watch anime. |

| Watch boku no pico, Mars of destruction, shelter, and other masterpieces and ill be sure you will either stop watching anime for a while or just watch 100 more so that you can forget their existence (and fail miserably). I stopped for 6 months after that traumatic experience. |

| There isn't enough good anime out there for it to be addicting. |
| This is the reason why you should cut some time from MAL OP. Shitposting is not just everything in this world. |

You either sleep thorugh class or slack off at some other place lol Seriously, it's me during my high school days tbh. Getting scolded by the teachers and pranked by classmates because I often dozing off and sleeping during the class lmao Don't follow my example |

Yeah, being on MAL basically means you're in a hopeless state of existence. Shicchi said: You either sleep thorugh class or slack off at some other place lol Seriously, it's me during my high school days tbh. Getting scolded by the teachers and pranked by classmates because I often dozing off and sleeping during the class lmao Don't follow my example Highschool was so much more free for me than college. I could skip so much class, my teachers would be (mostly) chill with it, and my HS would let me off with makeup courses (which were far less in hours than god knows how much class I skipped) because they really really didn't want to hold me back for attendance reasons. Only bad experiences I had was when I'd fall asleep during exams. Found out I had EBV too late =X Anyhow, I highly encourage skipping class n' stuff in highschool; it's your best chance to do so before stuck up professors start making your attendance directly affect your grades. |

| If you have the time to spend with your friends, then you need to drop that and start binging on anime. |
 |
| By not letting your schedule get so ridiculously cluttered like that in the first place. |
| "The name's Gambit. Remember it." -Gambit "X-Men '97"  |
| By listening in class you don't have to study at home. Simple enough tbh. About the addiction part i don't find myself spending much time on anime recently since i can't really find anything that sparks up my interest. |

| Drop it like it's hot and pretend to prepare for studying through other entertaining means. |
 |
| Watch them on while on your lunch break or when you eat.. |
| There are people out there who are addicted to anime? |
| I have quite a lot of free time timetable-wise, a day off in the middle of every week (for work) and the weekend off as well. Generally, I'll squeeze a few episodes in when I have a break from studying in the week and then I'll use Friday evening, Saturday and Sunday primarily as anime time. So it's like a 60:40 split between school, work, living and socialising vs. anime. |

| Grind your favorite anime into a powder and snort that shit up. Saves a lot of time. |

| Being addicted to anime is a little odd |
 |
| Replace sleep with anime. What is sleep? What I would do is just save it and let it pile up to watch when you're not busy lol. |
| Wake up earlier than I need to and watch an odd 3+ episodes depending on what I can squeeze in before going to school or work. Sleep is for the weak. |
| I haven't been watching anime in a month or so because so much happened. I barely had time to be at home. Since anime episodes are short, I tend to be able to squeeze an episode even in my busiest times. |

| Don't watch anime during that period of time, easy-peasy xD After 9 years of doing m&a fan I can bear with it for some time without any bigger problem. |

| Refusing to do anything but watching anime. It's easier when you're a 21 year old NEET. |
