| Been completing like 160 shows a year since I started watching anime 2011. I'll probably finish my 1000th series in like 3.5 years from now. My backlog is huge too, so its not like I am running out of shows to watch. |

entTaff said: I guess it would be better to say a variety. You watch too much of one kind(genre) or length then you'll get bored and that's usually partly why people rarely get over 500. You need a nice balance of long anime, shorts, and normal length and then multiply that by all the genres and types. You need to have an anime for any mood you may feel.IntroverTurtle said: It's called making anime your main hobby and watching it every day for a long time, picking the right kind of anime.

| Just casually watch stuff you like and the list will fill itself, yo'. |
| Look at how many MAL entries are short omakes or single-episode OVAs. It's not hard to build up one's list numbers if you watch more of those (and the 12-episode series they often accompany) instead of 200+-episode shounen anime. |

Though I enjoy rewatching more than normal watching so I don't regret it.It would have been more if i haven't spent so much time on re-watching them. |

| If you have watched anime for a long time it's not exactly hard to accumulate a hefty amount of anime watched. |

TobiOrNotTobi said: Well I restrict myself, make sure to watch a couple of new anime before rewatching one. After all you have to watch new anime to make your list of rewatchable ones larger.I have the same problem. What do we do if we're in that situation? worldeditor11 said: Yeah I edited that in, I feel the same way.I like re-watching as much as i am watching new anime. To be honest, i am leaning to the former since it is more entertaining and fun to re-watch my favourites. |

| I also wonder how people manage to obtain so much free time. I can get how some users could have watched 750 series, maaaybe even ones with a 1000, but when I see profiles like Date's, that doesn't look like a legitamite account to me. It's like he added ALL anime and manga entries and immediately adds the newest entries that have just been added to the DB just to make it look like hes still 'actively' watching/reading anime/manga... |

 You've come a long way, baby. |
| Not that hard to comprehend. If you spend only 2 hours a day on average watching anime you could watch close to 100 series (even mix of 2 cour and 1 cour series, ignoring long running shows) within a year. If you started watching anime when you were a teenager you would reach over 1000 anime (not even counting movies, ova's or specials) before you are even 30. |
| People have been watching anime for so many years, it isn't surprising that people would have hundreds or thousands of anime on their lists. Also take note that a lot of those shows might just be advertisements, ONAs, OVAs, movies, shorts and the like. |
| I see no problem with that. I have no desire to reach that number myself, and only go after the highest praised stuff. I won't watch something I know I probably won't enjoy. |
| "Let Justice Be Done!" My Theme Fight again, fight again for justice! |
| Well, obliviously they're elitist so who think they are scrub elitist until they have seen every single anime up to date |
| Raise it up, raise up the happiness. |
| Because they are probably older than you and/or have been watching anime longer than you have or at a faster pace. For instance I'm 31 and I've been watching anime for 18 years of my life. That adds up, especially if the person likes to marathon things or watches a lot of movies, OVAs, and short series. |

Fiction-S said: For 5 years if you watch one episode a day you could watch 140 series. That's not counting specials, ovas, movies, shorts, etc which you can watch at least 50 a day if you feel like. I barely have 60 done over a course of five years. What the hell do you people do? Watch everything at x5 speed? Your pace is roughly 3 episodes per week(which is easy to do) for 5 years makes about 60, 13 episode series. I wouldn't be surprised if most people could get 2 or 3 minimum a day. Which if done for five years could be about 420 series. Of course not including specials, ovas, movies, and shorts. |

When you have no job, no friends, no school and literally no reason to leave the house, you have all the time in the freakin' world. totally not me Well NEET'ing your way through life isn't worth it. Yeah it might be a carefree life in the beginning, but it makes you feel totally useless in the end, not being able to contribute anything to society AT ALL. With your self-esteem going down and everything... I saw a profile on here (forgot the name, and even if I did I wouldnt mention it) of someone who - supposedly - lived entirely for the purpose of anime; he watched 10 cours-worth of anime each day. Don't know if he was legit or just trolling, but that was truly a saddening thing to see. I really don't want people to become like that. |

| In a few years, I might probably reach the 1000 mark. If I continue to watch anime. |
Fiction-S said: I barely have 60 done over a course of five years. What the hell do you people do? Watch everything at x5 speed? Because when I find something I like I don't like to stop watching it. If it's a complete 13-26 episode series and I don't work that day, you can bet I'm going to sit there for 6-12 hours and watch the whole thing. Minus, food and bathroom breaks and time off to do necessary household chores. Then I'm going to pick up the next one and start that. I also watch a lot of movies, OVAs, and short TV series. If I do work than I usually watch something after it to wind down, not always anime since I have other interests, but often enough it's an anime that is currently airing and streaming weekly on Crunchyroll. I also don't just follow one show either, I usually watch about 10-15 per season. |

TobiOrNotTobi said: People that have seen over a thousand animes are probably trolls. I could have finished over a hundred animes by now, but it's my laziness that gets to me, or I just re-read manga way too much (like JunJou Romantica). Yeah that couldn't be more wrong. Its pretty easy to finish 1000 shows if you have enough time. |
 |
| You should also check the time spent watching or reading. Someone can have 1000 anime watched and still have less than 200 days spent watching them. |
 |
| if i stop play and watch only animes it's easy to reach 1000+ animes, And it depends what animes you watch lot anime have 12 episodes. |
