| All the time, especially if it's a boring/filler episode. Even right now I'm paused at the first episode of Fairy Tail, not because it's necessarily boring, but I'm talking to friends on MSN and I feel like browsing the internet. |
| All of the time! I often pause to check 4chan's reactions. |
 |
| Yeah, even at days at a time. |
| If the episode is boring or moving a little slow then yeah. |
| Every time I watch something, my girlfriend decides to get on Facebook when I'm halfway through it and attempt talking to me. =/ So then I got about 3-4 hours at a time while paused in the middle of an episode. And then I forget about it and don't want to start watching it again. -_- But she's in D.C. for five days, so I'm taking this time to marathon. xD |
 |
| Well, yes, i do, and that can be a problem for me. I do it every episode i watch>.> I`m distracted some time [ every time ] be something else, like my desktop, a movie at tv, or what avatar i have on my yahoo messenger, or another forum, or... i just wanna read manga xD I may stay with an episode put it on paused more than one day =]] |
 |
| only if i am really hungry, or for some reason the episode cannot hold my attention as well as it should. i know a few times i've grabbed a new magazine and browsed through it before i started the show back up again. |
 |
| Well, yes. If I need to use bathroom or to take some snacks. Or if I'm a little bit tired. |
Veronin said: Yeah, quite a bit. Usually something comes to mind and I'll start browsing the internet for a few hours. Yep, yep. Same here. |
| ♥ |
| Only if the episode is boring. |
| often, especially on portables... usually not the serious ones |
| I usually get distracted, so yeah. I'll probably take a break in the middle unless the episode is REALLY interesting. |
| Only to go to the bathroom or get a snack. Usually I can't stand to be interrupted . |
     |
| Yes i take breaks during an episode but only when i am distracted by a forum or when the episode is boring as hell |
| ....... |
| I almost always never take a break from an episode, even if I really have to use the restroom. I always try to finish first before anything else. Only exceptions are really time sensetive ones like when I'm watching and then I have to go to school, or if I have to leave or else I don't get a ride. Also, if theres a word or idea in the anime which I don't know. |
Score Criteria: |
| Unless the anime is really crap/boring I wouldn't take a break from an episode. I can't see how some people can properly watch an anime and do stuff on the net...unless they've already read the storyline in the manga?? |
| yes |
  |
| Yeah, I stop a lot unless it's really interesting. I mean, sometimes in the episodes they just talk and talk and talk and after a while I just stop listening and go grab something to eat after a while. |
 |
| If there is time for a break, where I would literally stop. I wouldn't pick it up again. It doesn't have my attention that means,. |

| I usually won't take a break unless my parents decide to interrupt, which luckily doesn't happen often. |
| I only do it when a bathroom break is required. Otherwise, I just bulldoze through an entire series if it's complete and I have the time. |
| If I'm really into the show I won't stop and if possible will watch episodes back to back, but otherwise I constantly find myself pausing it and messing around online. |
| yeah a lot, like right now?! |
 |
| Depends on the anime I watch. If I like it I can finish 10 or more episodes without a break. If I hate it...I usually don't watch it. |
 |
| its been like 2 hours i paused it, i'm not in anime mood.. |
|
| mare'thon all nite baby |
| a man's gotta eat |
| Yes, when the episode is not that interesting. There are times that it took several sessions for me to finish an episode. |
| whoo boy during Ga Rei Zero i got up to let the dog out, get a drink, bathroom break.... man I did not like that show.... |
I won't be fooled by a mere 3-d girl!!! |
| It happens when I watch any movie or series, period. I always end up pausing to do something else, I get distracted much too easily. |
 |
| no, i always finish the episode before taking a break |
 |
Soundtrack said: Yes. 見ている間に視力に負担をかけてしまう危険があります。Intermissions between sessions is necessary. に加えて, the human condition is a limiter to watching marathon.Just curious if anyone has ever stopped watching during an episode or maybe even multiple times during an episode. |
 |
| My breaks are made up of going on here when I have it paused or in between episodes. Usually the longest breaks are because I'm going to do something or if I'm sleeping. |
| If you have to attend to one of your earthly desires you will have to stop watching, unless you watch Anime on your phone/tablet or laptop which you can easily take with you to the toilet (which is kinda gross though). :> But in the end, you do you I do me~ To each their own. Watching something while you don't feel motivated to actually watch it only worsens one's watching experience :> |
The dearer you hold a memory the more painful it becomes. |
| Yes, I do this frequently. I've even stopped in the middle of an episode to go workout, and even sometimes I just go to sleep and resume the next day. |
| "short and human alien that doesn't age badass cunt two guns explosions" |
| I can very easily be distracted, usually to go get food, but sometimes (most times) I just sit through whole seasons without moving. |
| Sometimes I take a break mid-episode, but I prefer to wait until episode ends before doing it. I usually only do it mid-episode if something forces me to do it, rather than me doing it of my own volition. Although it occasionally happens, if episode is too boring, or to the contrary if it feels like it's good place to take a break to make it more enjoyable. |
| Yep , I do it often , for me it's just something normal :D |
