| How many years do you think it will take you to watch all animes in your PTW? I mean I already have 1000 animes in my PTW and I add at least 20 more every season. And seeing how often I can watch anime I think that it will take me at least a decade to reach 1000 completed. What about you? |
 The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama. Feeling half happy, half sad. Kawaii waifus and precious best girls <3333 |
| My PTWs on mal: 0, so already finished My actual PTWs: probably never unless I don’t want to watch finished shows anymore |
 |
| It's pretty much done already. I mostly have upcoming seasonal anime in my PTW list. |
 |
| I don't think i'll ever complete my PTW i have a ton of other things i like doing; like reading visual novels or light novels or manga playing regular games watching normal shows posting messages on myanimelist forums mm it will probably be impossible especially since i can easily add a ton of things to my plan to watch list way easier to add a show to ptw than to complete it |
 |
| My PTW list is all upcoming anime, so it will completed whenever those anime release. |
  What Does Pot of Greed do?  |
| Probably never, even when I add new entries to my PTW list, it's lying in the dust until the day I bury it deeper or decide to get it out. |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| I mostly just use my PTW for shows that aren't out yet so there's not much in there. |
| For all the ones that have already aired, I reckon I could definitely finish my PTW in less than a year if I wanted to. I only have 48 anime in my PTW (I think). I’m not too fussed about it though. If my PTW increased to 1000, so be it. At least there will always be anime I want to watch ^_^ |
 |
| My PTW isn't going to complete, ever, unless I remove those anime. When deciding on a new anime, checking my PTW is the last thing I do. Doesn't feel right to choose anything from there idk why. so yeah, rip PTW. |
 |
| I don't have that many animes in my PTW, but nowadays I barely have time to watch the new seasonal animes, so they'll probably stay in my PTW forever :/ |
| Never because I add more than I watch. |
| The part of my ptw list that has already finished airing - a couple years, unless I do another mass add. The other part of my ptw list is upcoming anime, so I'll never finish that part as I keep adding more to it. |
| probably 2 more years and I'm done with all anime, the only thing that will remain are not yet aired shows |
    |
| I just use PTW to remind me of the premiere of seasonal shows and as a dumping ground for everything that has ever caught my attention so that I can later come back to it and choose something to watch for the evening. |
 |
| Mine has been between 50 and 80 in the last few years. That doesn't seem many but judging by my tendency to add more to it than I finish, it can reach 100 in the next two or three years. That is - it never will be emptied completely. |

 |
| It'll be awhile, but I can finish it if I try, But too bad I always watch anime that's not part of the PTW all the time. |
 |
| I don't know, maybe 2-3 years but sometimes I get a bit busy and if seasonals end up interesting me then those also come into the equation |
| PTW: Over 4000 If I grind away at the easy titles, I might be able to get it to maybe around 3000 in the next couple of years. I only have 1400 TV shows on the PTW list. It all depends on my free time and mood |

| *Looks at my 120 PTW; 19 Not Yet Aired* Considering I have YuYu Hakusho, Urusei Yatsura, and Black Clover on my list... 2 years if I didn't watch any seasonal anime. With (roughly) 1600 episodes in that list, that's an average of 2 episodes a day. |
| It will take me good 5 years |
| Since I decided to add Wan Pissu, it seems to take forever so as to finish them. |
Help! I need somebody. Help! Not just anybody. Help! You know I need someone. Helpppppp!  |
| I Only Have 63 Entries, So It'll Most Likely Take About 6 Months Or Less. |
 |
| I currently have 168 on my PTW. Of those the FA/CA/NYA breakdown is 143/5/20. That figure is down by 10 from a couple of months ago. I'm hoping to get it below 100 by the end of the year, at least the FA portion if not the total. |
A møøse once bit my sister... |
| I watched 61 new entries in 2022 so cease producing new anime and I'm good in about 10 years. |
| Since I keep finding good shows to add to my PTW and my consumption rate is as slow as a snail, it's not looking great. |
| never. As more come out than i watch. |
 |
| I don't think my ptw will ever reach 0 |
 Sorry if I write something incorrect, English is not my native language. |
| Mine reached 2.1k and smoehow I was able to watch 7 shows from my ptw so it is rn 2093, I wonder if I'll be able to finish all of this someday, somehow. |
| my PTW list is a very "Cut off one head and two more will take its place" kind of deal so |
-insert NGE meme here- |
| I don't really use it anymore, it bogs down my list. I mostly just have a few movies in there that are perpetually on hold. Also, there are a few series there that have been kicked back from "Watching" because MAL lists them as "not yet aired". If I used it, it would get too depressing, with as others have noted, dozens more being added each season, and the list getting longer and longer, until it would get longer than is feasibly possible to watch in a human lifespan. (Ironically, as I am trying to avoid it happening to my PTW, this is currently happening to my "on hold".) |
       |
| If my Ptw stays the same; with my current pace it'll probably take three quarters of a year |
Kek |
| Something like 7 years, if I'm looking at my CURRENT plan to watch list. |
| My entire lifespan, I guess. Probably won't be enough time for that though. |
 |
| i wish there was a reset button for my PTW list (well, it's not like it's that long though, but still) so i could actually add those entries im really planning to watch lol |
 |
| I have around 800 in my list. I plan to watch about 80-120 anime a year. It will probably take me rough 6-10 years. |
| So far i can say it would take me up until the early parts of 2024 to finish my PTW list since it's currently in the 70s lmao. I've already started watching some of the shows on there such as "Rozen Maiden" and "sCRYed" which i should've seen like last year lmao. |
 |
| I'm keeping my list at a constant fill grade of 250 so there's a pool for my friends to arrange group watches. I remove titles when adding new ones so that figure stays about constant. I have no real intention to complete the pool, it's little more than pre-research of candidates. I don't add impulse picks and I don't add shows which I know I have a better one of it's type already listed. E.g. I don't need the 10th fantasy comedy from the 90s when I still have 3 or more in the backlog. In that case I drop (without watching) the ones I find to be probably the worse takes, and keep at most 3 of their kind. |
 |
| Probably gonna take somewhere between 2 or 4 years. That is, if I don't add anything more to it. |
Signatures are too distracting  ^ visit my webby ^ |
| I only have upcoming shows in my PTW for the simple fact that I get a notification when it airs, but I know I would have so many if I really put all of the shows I wanted to watch on there. I slowly add a few at a time to my other lists but never enough so that it's overwhelming |
 |
| Probably never. I added pretty much everything that either seemed interesting to me or was recommended or even just series with VA's i like. I don't believe that i'll actually finish it all. But that's my choice, so i don't run out of things to watch. |
| My waifu is the most wonderful waifu. Mai Valentine. We're freaking out that we're running out of time, but to do what? Should i stop and think of that? Is there something i could do to slow it down? Live in a day for once, instead of watch it sprinting by |
| Impossible to complete since now I only put nonairing on my PTW initially and keep it < 100 (anything aired/airing, I'll eventually move) As for the PTW that doesn't factor into not yet aired, it took me 3-4 years to finish getting from 500 entries down to 100 (but definitely watched more than 500 entries since I was adding to my PTW along the way) |
 |
| PTW on MAL: 3,279 PTW Completed: 109 Most of them I complete during November cause I'm not spending every night wanking during that month. |
 |
| Plan to Watch: 1,321 Give me 2 years and it will be 10k. |
| Actually completing it is infinite time. Watching everything from it, depends on how fast they release the unaired shows. If we exclude unfinished shows, then 0. I have nothing I want to watch on my PTW list. |
| Probably never, considering I also have a backlog of manga, light novels, and visual novels I want to read, and other interests and responsibilities. But if I went full NEET mode and focused on watching anime all day every day, I'd probably be able to get through it in 1 or 2 years. |
