I watched some episodes randomly after becoming a new anime fan back in 2008 with Naruto and Bleach but Endless Eight happened and I stopped and planned to watch it later. I never added any of the episodes to my list as I didn't watch them in any order.

Its been 13 years and I never resumed. I just remembered it after watching Haachama trying to prank Luna by pretending to prank her with having her script accidentally show up or failing miserably to prank her because of the said accident.

I watched all of these episodes and all I got was to post in a 13 year old thread.

I'm not a fan of this series but I feel like Endless Eight was somehow the most enjoyable part. Can't really explain why.I watched it all in one go though, I never watched it back in the day when it was airing so that might have given you a different impression.

I forget whether I've posted here before, but not only did I watched all the episodes, I actually appreciated watching them all, and even praise Endless Eight as an example of immersing the audience in the characters' experiences.

I've even suggested that it might be more effective if it literally was the same animations but in different orders and with bits changed out or added, leading people to gradually realize that it's not just a rebroadcast.

I didn't mind watching through it but what really irked me was the lack of any payoff at the end..

the solution to the loop was just so unsatisfying.

I didn't think it would be that bad. I thought each one would be different enough. At first it was nice seeing different clothing and fanservice angles. But then I just wanted to punch the main characters. But yes. I have watched them all. In 2 days.

it was an epic journey
You know the kind of guy who does nothing but bad things and then wonders why his life sucks? Well, that was me. Every time something good happened to me, something bad was always waiting around the corner: karma. That's when I realized that I had to change, so I made a list of everything bad I've ever done and one by one I'm gonna make up for all my mistakes. I'm just trying to be a better person. My name is Earl.

Watched it all. I didn't think it was that abysmal as many others seem to think but then again I also enjoy watching youtube videos over and over again. Sometimes the brain is simply too tired to take in anything new. I like the familiarity

God I'm 5 episodes in and just found out nothing ever happens in between and now I'm crying inside after watching the events happen again and again, I know I can skip but I'm too deep to stop so I am going to get through the rest and laugh through the pain...




Edit - Done...thank goodness :(

Watched it all in one day a few days ago and it's my favorite part of the series so far because something is deeply wrong with me

#4 is the best one and #6 is the worst one

Rewatched all episodes of Endless Eight lol, don't know what I'm doing. I did originally watch this before even having a MAL account so I guess I can officially sign here. Still not a fan, still found the actual content and payoff to be very boring but I didn't hate this as passionately as before given I knew what to expect. I did manage to appreciate the directing, the animation efforts to try their best to make episodes at least look different despite being mostly the same, and even the fact that the endless loops does reflect the insanity of the situation at hand given the loop took place 15000+ times. As a viewer, it sucked and it was really boring still but at least in 2024, there are details I can take positives out of and it is a very different and unique arc in anime.

Still can't imagine how watching this would be weekly, that sounds like pure insanity (especially considering how anticlimactic and to some degree, predictable the ending was). It went from one of the worst arcs ever to a really boring arc with a shitty (yet somewhat fitting) payoff, some unique ideas and minor positives. I guess I can be glad I guess to rewatch this as it did at least improve compared to my 2017 experience.

I think i know why they want us to see all 8 same episodes: That to make us know how Nagato's feeling, seeing 15531 same things over and over again - its veeeery booooring. I watch all of 8 and getting very statisfying feeling in the final episodes of Endless 8 - thats maybe what Nagato's feeling after all of that...this arc (imo) still most genius way writer till today to deliver character feeling toward viewers.

Boring as hell but blessed as well.

Apart from 1 and 8, this is simply how I've liked the episodes, from best to worst

4 > 5 > 7 > 2 > 3 > 6

I did, for the first time (watched only s1 before, and so long ago that forgot most of it).

Nice experience, but it's kinda sad that we never saw timelines without obon festival, goldfishes or frog job...

Yup, I watched all them in a row like 2 days ago, it was an experience indeed, but honestly I did kinda enjoy what it was.
Not watching the same chapter over and over 8 times but thinking about what the answer could be, and hoping that at least the 7th and 8th episodes would bring up something new like an adventure to break the loop or something like that...
But it wasn't, and honestly I dont care about it, of course I understand the people that got mad about this, because it's not a good feeling to wait for a new season of 14 chapters about your favourite anime and get just 5 chapters due to 8 of them being just the same thing but repeated again and again, but for me it was a good arc, it represented the boredom of Yuki and I think that if you think about it in an artistic way ends up being a good arc that achieved what it was looking for.
