| The fact it's long doesn't make it necessarily boring... |
 |
| Being long doesn't mean it's boring unless it's a tiny ass story they decided to stretch which is usually not the case. |

| I finished HxH 2011 in a week and the first 200 eps of Gintama in 8 days (which I regret). I think that long anime are usually better than short anime because the characters are given a lot more development (usually). Long anime just tend to have more arcs, not just one huge arc that takes up the whole season. They're certainly just as entertaining. |
| i mean if you enjoy the long anime you will continuously watch episodes without getting bored, and then finish it... |
| :) |
| Long doesn’t mean it’s boring throughout. I don’t really think fmab counts as long though. 100+ episode is long |
 |
| Long anime don't really get boring or bad unless its filler paradise like Naruto and Bleach. Even long anime have stories that can keep you interested till the end which makes them possible to watch |
| Long animes are shows that I watch very leisurely in between while I search for the next 12-24 eps anime to watch. For Gintama for example, I watch it by arcs and they usually consist of a couple eps at a time. This also makes it not boring cause each arc is a "new story" and easier to digest. |

| procrastination for other stuff makes me want to watch long anime... I also skip through the episode if it gets too slow or boring and focus on the interesting stuff. And for Detective Conan, I just searched for the episodes where the characters I like are in and then watch those arcs/episodes only. Fortunately two of those characters are important to the very stretched out plot lol |
 |
| I've been watching LotGH, Monster and Gintama at a pace of one episode per day, leaving the rest of my free time for shorter series. I definitely recommend this approach if you're afraid of getting bored. |
| You got to remember not to binge tons of episodes a week, and take it at a slow pace such as 3-5 a week or even once a week. You have to remember that these shows are meant to be watched as such to prevent them from getting stale. |
 |
| I thought one piece would take forever to complete, but it only ended up taking a month because for some reason it was really interesting. Same with Yu Yu Hakusho, Nana, Monster, FMAB, Naruto, and HXH, I start them and end up just binging them because they aren't boring for me Gintama is taking a while though because unlike other Long running animes, its arcs can be very short or episodic, so its not necessarily boring but its just harder to sit down and binge |

| If its a boring anime, i watch a secondary anime in between just to keep things interesting or drop the anime and continue it after sometime. But to be true most of the time, i get too excited watching long running anime and couldn't stop watching anime. The only type of long running anime, i get bored is when the plot doesn't progress or which contain all 1 or 2 episode arcs (Like gag/comedy or slice of life genre). Otherwise i don't get bored. |

| I don't get bored of long ones. In fact I quite like longer anime as I can binge them. I spent a few months catching up on One Piece to the Dressrosa arc |

Rose_Player said: I've recently watched all the monogatari series and it was my first "long" anime... All at once. It wasn't unbearable at all because if you get attached to the characters, you want to know more about them. You don't even think about finishing it once you enjoy the story it tells you about, you don't want it ends. Of course if it's dense, you better watch it slowly. But if you're hooked, you'll just watch hundreds of episode easy Yeah Monogatari series is the only long one that I have watched. It has some charm to it, which I didn't find in FMAB. |
 |
| As many have already said, there's always the possibility of taking breaks after some amount of episodes, to watch something else time to time etc. I like watching longer anime, but then again sometunes I feel a need to watch something shorter. Of course considering according to MAL I started watching Detective Conan December 7th 2019, so 11 months ago and I've watched 676 episodes, 16 movies and multiple OVAs and specials of it while also watching a lot of other anime. |

I can't watch anime that is over 36 episodes. when I was younger, I didn't care how long the anime was I just watched it. Now of days I can't watch anime like I used to. |

| i usually take breaks watching long anime even though every long anime i've really enjoyed like hxh, yu yu hakusho and Monster. i just feel like i need to take some sort of break and watch some other shows get back to it. |
 |
| It's not a good idea to watch a long anime with the intention of catching up or finishing it as fast as possible. Take your time and enjoy it slowly / at your own pace |
 ManWild |
| depends on the show. If I actually like it then I won't feel the length. I find them more memorable/satisfying to watch than shorter series that are only 12 episodes. |
 |
| I binged both Naruto, Naruto Shippuden, and all 11 movies, HxH, 3-4 seasons of Free!!, and 3 seasons of Haikyuu and KNB. I think it depends how well the anime does on the attention front, i.e. how long it can hold your attention, and how much it piques one's interest. But if I start to find an anime boring, I stop watching it for a while and watch other shows, like Hollywood series |

-Arata said: i cant imagine myself watching hundreds of episodes and not getting bored the long ones ive watched are Monster, Fmab and hxh 1999 dude its just commitment you gotta be committed |
 |
| I take it one arc at a time. It's easier to watch if I think of it as just a bunch of 1 or 2-cour series together. If I can't do that, then just watching 1 episode every so often will get me closer to completing it eventually. |
| Just watch it while not thinking about how long it would be. As long as the anime is interesting even 100 or 200 episodes could still be too short, this happened to me when I watched LoGH before. |
