Ever stopped watching an anime bc you like it so much ?

One piece, I binged 1008 episodes and stopped watching because at that point, there was only like 20 more eps left for me to watch. So I stopped watching.

Others are shadow's house and eminence in the shadow, but thats because I read the LN/manga

@Zimmu I told myself I’ll watch a 100 eps of one piece every year so that by the time it’s finished airing I still have many eps to enjoy

But I ended up watching 300+ eps in only 3 weeks of January this year lol

@Yonahim_Zz
haha one piece is the type of shows that you can just watch without getting tired of and is addictive to watch

Not stopped but I'm holding them for way too long for example, I stopped at the Fullmetal Alchemist Ending or currently waiting on AOT and Avatar

I wind up delaying watching last episodes sometimes ugh

Violet Evergarden. Well, not the series but, I still refuse to watch the movies and specials because I want to be in the best possible mood, viewing setup, and be fully invested when I watch it.

@Jozuwa-_- I cant tell you how much I feel the same …
Both movies have been in my watching list since they aired …
But I promised myself I’ll watch them this summer holiday so it’s gonna be the farewell (*´ー｀*)

@Yonahim_Zz Hope we both get the best emotional experience when we finally do get to watching those. Tissues prepared T-T

attack on titan... I've been afraid to watch the last seasons, because what if I hate it??? What if I'm disappointed? I wouldn't want that to happen

I do sometimes delay watching more if I am really enjoying it. I remember feeling like that with one punch man season 1, almost feeling like "if I watch this I won't see animation like this for 10 more years, I better save it", but yeah I do generally just end up watching whatever it is to the end.

Well, that's not to say I don't save anything, for a long time I was saving Owarimonogatari cause the monogatari series is just so unique, I didn't want it to end. I think there may still one or god forbid 2 seasons I haven't seen but I am saving them for now.

@Anjuro I really want to start watching both the * monogatari * and * fate * franchise cause they seem so unique and I just like how they’re so variable

But I think I need to make a special environment to start/enjoy them lol

Or should I just dive in ?

@Yonahim_Zz It's kind of a hard question to answer. I think Monogatari is 100% one of those series you can only experience once for the first time (I mean of course you can't watch any series twice "for the first time" but I hope you get what I mean, its unique).

I would say 1) Do you plan on ever learning Japanese? If so, you might want to hold off. Monogatari has incredible nuances and word play in Japanese, its part of why the series is so successful and its such an important part of the series identity. You can still revisit it down the line but it will never be the same as experiencing it for the first time in Japanese.

Second thing I would say is, are you in a relaxed thinking mood? Are you stressed out and anxious? Imo it might tarnish your experience a little bit if you are. You know how some people listen to sad songs when they break up and happy songs when they start a new relationship, well I think it can be kinda a similar deal for some anime, you might not like them as much if you're not in the correct headspace.

Third thing I'll say is I hope you like innuendos and light ecchi cause monogatari has a lot of that too (well the earlier seasons have more, owarimonogatari didn't have almost any as far as I remember). It's not really the point of the series but it would be ideal if you were in a mood to enjoy that, a calm and relaxed mood where you can be immersed in the mystery of monogatari, laugh when there are jokes and get horny when the characters are acting horny.

Hope this helps :)

@Anjuro yes I actually plan on learning Japanese but that’s like 3-5 years from now … so idk if I can hold on from watching it all these years …

+ yessss one of the reasons I haven’t started both franchises is because I KNOW they need a good mood/mindset , no stress or anything

+ I don’t mind ecchi or anything but thanks for the advice hehe !
(=´∀｀)

@Yonahim_Zz Nice! Good luck with your Japanese then, it takes some serious dedication (speaking from experience). Just as a heads up, have a look at "Remembering the kanji" when you start, for me it was a really efficient way to get familiar with Kanji, I highly recommend it.

I hope you have the willpower to hold out XD
