| my anime watching schedule has always been: binge-watch everything under the sun for like 2 months > forget about it for a year > repeat |
| I might have taken it inadvertently and haven't counted exactly how long. Though I might've still watched an episode or two during a dry period so I should probably say that I've never taken a definite long break from anime ever since I started. |
| I've taken two fairly long breaks since I started watching anime. The first was for about 6 months in 2018 while I was studying abroad in Japan, and the more recent one was for almost a year and a half from 2020 until about a month ago. The second break was due to a combination of not having anything I really wanted to watch too badly and starting work causing me to have less time. Because my interest in anime was low at the time I used my free time mostly for games/youtube then instead and now I've been catching up on some things I missed. |

| I'll take a break from anime...when I'm dead.. |
 |
| I took a half year break early last year because I was a bit tired of following lots of seasonals. |
 |
| Yea, took 2 months break cuz of exams :)) |
  |
| Not really. I have been watching anime for 3 years without any breaks. |
 |
| I took a 10ish year break from Anime starting in the middle of my Junior year of High School. I never really intended to, but applying to college, finding a job, and general adult things simply took over my life. I still watched the occasional movie here and there, but never a series. This was probably a good thing in the end. I have a hard time with self control when it comes to binging and I used to regularly pull all nighters doing just that. Don’t know how I would have graduated college with that added distraction. Last year I finally dove back into things. It’s been fun. |
-insert NGE meme here- |
| I've technically been on one for years Mostly just watch seasonal anime now, too busy to watch anything else Real world and my novel gotta take priority |
   I envy your delusion; I wish I could live in it  |
| My longest break was like a month but that's cause I was addicted to path of exile lol |
 |
| Yes, I've gotten bored of anime. Also being busy in school. For some reason, being under stress makes it hard for me to even wanna watch anime. |
 |
| I avoid taking long breaks. 1 or 2 weeks is ok. a month maybe for some rare exceptions, but thats it. |
| :v |
| At one point I did for a couple of years because the job I was working in was constantly having me working. Between always being there & being wore out from work, I had no inclination to watch much of anything |
| Constantly. Sometimes for months at a time. Reason is simple, to avoid getting bored of it. |
| Technically, I was on an Anime break for about a decade. Mostly because adulthood started... jobs and stuff. Was religiously following Gintama stuff though. But I only got encouraged to follow an Anime again when I learned about KnY while I was employed, and later on Fire Force (which I'm still yet to finish). Then "2020" happened which gave me a lot of time to slowly start making Anime my main hobby again. |
   |
| it's simple, nothing caught my interest |
| a |
| From time to time, often because of school or personal project, also whenever a new pokémon game comes out since I focus on playing the game then.>:P> |
   |
| Yes, few years ago due to gacha and trying to rank high. |
| Two/Three months or so. I think I just needed a break after finishing the previous season of anime. |
 |
| I think it's a week I don't watch a single episode of anime though still see clips on ig from time to time. |
"Nobody could laugh at someone who's trying their hardest" -Machio- |
| Yes, frequently. I don't like doing one thing too much, I don't wanna grow sick of it by overindulging. I also just have a lot of other interests that take priority over anime. I basically only watch anime when I'm in the mood, which can range from several times a day when I'm really into something, to once every few months or not even once a year. |
| I don't know how long but after watching my fav Gintama and few others I took a break like 2 months more or less. |
