Just wondering how quickly anyone else finished Monster.
As it can be quite addictive for some people, finishing the 74 ep series can be really easily.
I'm getting through it rather quickly.
Anyone finished it in a week?

It's taken me more than half a year to watch it lol. How the heck did I do that? Well, I kind of forgot about the show for a few months, but then I decided to catch up to the tv schedule (which was already at episode 43) by watching around 25 episodes in like 2 weeks. At that point, I was really tempted to complete Monster much faster, but I decided to just go with the routine of watching two episodes per week or every other week.

Woooow...2 DAYS!!!? The show is 27 hours long! That's a LONG time to be staring at a complex show nonstop!!! (And you're not even a raving fan of the show!! *how weird*)

I don't remember exactly how fast I watched it, but once I started it, I put everything else on hold. It was longer than a week, but not by much.

I watched it on the Sci-fi channel, two episodes every Monday night. One hell of a roller coaster ride over the months :)

Spent about three days watching up to episode 45 then one day I woke up earlier than normal and finished 29 eps from ep.46 - 74 in one day with time to spare.

I finished it in a month. I first read the manga (took me 4 days to complete) so I was in no way in a rush to finish the anime, so I took my time.

marathoned it in 2-3 weeks I think. I'd recommend marathoning (3-4 eps per day) the show for max enjoyment since it has a slower pace than usual
"...our faces marked by toil, by deceptions, by success, by love; our weary eyes looking still, looking always, looking anxiously for something out of life, that while it is expected is already gone – has passed unseen, in a sigh, in a flash – together with the youth, with the strength, with the romance of illusions.” - Joseph Conrad ('Youth')

Watched it over a month back when there was limited bandwidth, could only afford to watch 2 per day. XD Was an amazing month, the suspence till the next day killed me.

One episode a day, maybe ocassionally two a day. It's a great series and doesn't drag at all, so it wasn't a chore to watch regularly.

That's some signature, eh?

About a week, recently rewatched it over the course of three days.
Strange question though.

I'm not sure how to scale how long it took me to catch up to One Piece as I was engrossed in the Anime and Manga simultaneously.

Same, except I don't feel the need to re-watch it again. It was an interesting anime but dragged on too long for my taste.
