| I know the feeling, but I know I'll probably have watched like 500 by the time i'm 18-20 So i'm alright. Plus I like relishing my anime anyway. Rushing through anime for the sake of saying you've watched a lot of anime is just...pathetic |
 |
| I've seen a lot of anime since my childhood and watching 3 episodes per day. |
 |
| Generally, most people would watch all that anime one episode at a time. The same would be for all the people who read so much manga, one page at a time. But on a more serious tone. For a lot of people, anime is their chosen source of media, while others might watch the news or play a game, those people would sit and watch anime. Some people who don't or can't work might fill their days in with several episodes of anime. Others like my self have been plugging away for 10 or so years (Though I've managed to complete quite a few series thanks to an injury over the past few weeks) Don't rush something you enjoy (Though I'm a tad guilty of rushing, I've managed quite a few series the past few weeks) and there's no competition for having the most series names on a digital list. I doubt it would help get you a job. Unless it's with something like a quality control panel or something else along those lines, if that's what you want to be, then by all means keep filling that list. |

| I watch anime since 1995. |
| Oh I also forgot to say that I have been watching anime since I was 10 years old or sooner. :3~ |

Why you miss out "The Seventh Seal", "Justified", "The 400 Blows" and "Archer"? I got nothing against watching mainly Anime, but... you live one life. Gotta expand your horizons before time runs out. |

| Yeah, while I'm sure we'd get a quality interview with IntroverTurtle asking the questions, it wouldn't have the same comedy value as Date-chan. filmftw1 said: How?

Not true, out of what you just listed there, I watch both Archer and Justified, among quite a few others that aren't anime. Now, I haven't seen as much as some others have, but I do still get through my fair share of anime. |

| Why would anyone need tips to watch more anime. If you watch it just to increase your total time spent watching or whatever then your missing the point. When I had more time I used to watch more anime but now I can barely get a few episodes in. Recently I started chatting with other members on a daily basis so I have even less time but since I'm still having fun it dosnt matter. This was all stated above me but I'll second it. 1. Some people have seen a lot of ova's and specials. 2. A lot of the users might be older have have more experience with anime. 3. Some users may have similar ages but that dosnt mean they started watching at the same time. |

| I'm wondering how people who watched 1000+ anime don't get bored of it. I only watched abput 400 but I'm pretty much done with anime. |
| obsession, addiction, whatever you might call it is the driving force. Though i believe counting by numbers is all too superficial unless one has watched most stuffs that are deeply connecting and enjoyable |

So much of what I enjoy I've already watched and can't really imagine watching more than one or two series in a season. I'd have a long ways to go... Right now is actually the most I've watched in 6 months. I don't really see how someone could be bored of an entire medium with tons of different genres, demographics and types of media whose volume is constantly increasing season by season . Always so much interesting things to watch but only so little time to do it, in my opinion. |

| Only started watching anime roughly 2~3 years ago. I do not marathon a lot, unless the anime is really good and, say I am on holidays or weekends. |
| http://myanimelist.net/profile/spacecowboy this guy watched the most series here. He is legend. |
| some people watch everything(shit i would never watch in my life)/fake mal lists/have no other hobbies/are glued to the screen/have been watching anime way longer and way more excessively than other/have simply no life. personally i only get tired of bad anime. lol i think i already watch alot since i have 25-30+ shows (+1 older show that stopped airing ) every season on my watching list but then i see people who got like 60 and 80 and i just think wtf!! |
| yesterday i saw a guy who has 12k+ completed manga and about 7k completed anime with a few years of watched time. i read some of the comments and they all asked why he kept changing his name over and over again. i wonder... |

From the time I've first seen him, he's used something around 6-7 different names. |

I'm guessing you're talking about Date (I think he goes by FGUA.....something now). maybe i dont really remember the name. but why change names? There are literally hundreds of users who change their names regularly on MAL for various reasons. Getting sick of your old name or seeing a new show that you want to name yourself after would be possible reasons, but there's really dozens of possible reasons one can think of, unless you lack any imagination. |

Bigger lists are the result of many years watching, not constant marathoning. My list could have been twice the size it is now without doing any damage to my life. |

| Okay so I've been watching anime since 12 years now and I've only completed about 120 anime. When I joined this forum and found the anime lists of people having like 500 to 1000 anime completed, I was totally embarrassed. I felt like I had to catch up to them soon. But then I realized that can never happen. I just like to watch very few shows that intrigue me. I don't think I can ever watch it for just for the heck of it, I make sure I enjoy whatever I watch. So don't worry about completing as many as possible within a short time. All that matters is for you to be able to enjoy the anime that you're watching. |

Each season adds about 20 or so series, depends on your taste. So if you follow airing ones, it racks up the count fast. You'll never know what you enjoy unless you try them all out. |

You're right, but it's just that I don't get enough time to watch anime :( |

I doubt you're gonna run out of shows that would intrigue you. But I agree, everyone has their own pace. Sometimes I only watch a few episodes a week. On many days I don't watch any anime, but usually when I do, it's at least 3 episodes in a row. Sometimes I do marathon several days in a row, but only if I feel like it. |

Haha yes, there are so many good ones out there for me to watch since I've finished watching only a few series. Talking about the pace, the same goes for me. In all these years, there were times when I watched about 20 episodes a day and there were times when I watched none. I keep taking regular breaks as it is highly impossible for me to watch them continuously. |
