| I don't think it's possible. There's so many anime out there that I don't think you would live long enough to see them all. Plus there's some anime that aren't on the internet so you won't be able to. |
| nope/10 we can't live forever, and even if we could... would you really want to? |
| the answer is no and no. because: 1. you needs to be immortal to even do that 2. you needs to spend your whole lifetime only watching anime 3. there is many anime that have no dvd or download link everywhere |
| "This is boring...I'm bored..." |
| Yes. that is if all anime is available and within your hand's reach,then it should take you 20-30 years to finish everything while catching up to the currently airing. But that's kinda impossible. |
| It's technically possible, but it'd require dedication, especially if you want to be able to watch old, obscure shows that are hard to find. As for if people would believe you? Why does it matter? |
| I would be curious in knowing how long in hours/years all anime (minus H) added together equals to. I also what year was the breaking point where it no longer became possible to watch everything. |
| It would be possible, as long as those anime are in your life time. Hell, I bet you'd even have some free time once you finish every anime. All you have to do is live in Japan as a hikkimori anime otaku. Also, don't forget about the gal games, you still have to conquer 2D girls. On another note though, I noticed nearly half of your anime list is anime movies with 138 anime completed. In other words, you had 4 years to build up your list (average of by the least, 800-1k series/movies) |

It depends, if you consider not being able to process what's actually happening but is able to see through the eyes then I'd say a pretty damn old age. |

I also what year was the breaking point where it no longer became possible to watch everything. Did some math based on my stats on anidb and to complete all entries that are there, you would need 2231 days (53542 hours). But that includes hentai. Of course its not 100% accurate. According my stats I have watched 21212/149599 episodes that are in the database which is 14,17% of whole anidb. That took me 7587 hours of watchtime. What is not accurate in this case is that duration of each episode differs so its hard to say how many hours exactly would it take to watch those remaining episodes. |

| 1 - I don't think it's realistically possible. Your list is currently at 138 completed. You'd have a long way to go. 2 - Anime doesn't take that long to watch, you can clear a 12 episode series in 4 hours. I've only ever seen one person who I thought was bullshitting but that's because he had something like 20 thousand complete (Forget the exact number) He had clicked everything possible, OVA's, Music, Anime, Hentai etc and was asking for donations for a server. The point is if you have seen the Anime, you can prove it by simply talking about it.... You don't need a list to prove it. |
| Feel free to message me to chat. |
| Well it's impossible. You'd likely have to devote your whole life to it, plus you'd have to watch weird crap. |

| i think when people have seen like 6000 anime series it like includes music videos, ovas and movies |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| That would be most likely impossible. so, nope. haha. |
 |
| Sure, if you have no life. Otherwise, I don't see how one can manage that. That's a cool goal though. |

| it technicaly can, but doesnt mean they can. how about unsubbed anime? or anime without raws? or anime that totaly lost? |
 "If taking responsibility for a mistake that cannot be undone means death, it's not that hard to die. At least, not as hard as to live on." |
| At this stage...i would say no...as of the moment we have about 8500 anime series,ovas and movies...and it is still rising an average of 30 to 50 per season....there is just no way u can catch up to that along with the steady rise on new series per season. At best you might be able to catch up and have a steady pace of 10 to 30% of the industry but there is no way in hell u can watch all of them. |
| whats with all the necro-post?? i know me commenting isnt helping but come one people!!!! does no one check the date? ive skimmed through this post (seriously, wasn't hard to do. and im probably the only one who ever does this considering what i read) and all i see are people reviving this post with the same answer over and over again!! i meannn friggen 2013!!!! but well since im here ranting/ bumping the thread, ill answer. no its impossible. i had the same dream but considering the amount of anime that comes out every season along with whats already aired. its impossible. i dont even know why I answered i am almost certain the next person to post will probably skip even my comment, and post something identical to my answer, and then it'll continue. |

| I don't think anyone can. 1.You first have to be able fluently understand Japanese because most anime are not subbed. You would also have to be able t fluently be able to read Japanese because many anime were made during the silent movie era. 2. You would have to be able to tolerate other genre, and repeat stories and animation styles. 3.You would have to be immortal because there is no way you would be able to watch all anime in a average human lifespan. 4.You would have to be a time traveler because many anime were lost. |
| no way it's possibruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu |
╮ (. ❛ ᴗ ❛.) ╭ |
| Good luck with boku no pico bro. And, to be honest, its not possible, you should watch anime with no break time a few years ;p |
MY ANIME LIST  |
| god no but i'll pray for anyone who wants to try |
 |
| It's impossible (It would be better with just 10 characters) |
 |
| Even if you're immortal, you'll commit suicide because of too many anime consumption. |
leNerd said: The problem is that many anime have been lostIt is possible and you dont have to be immortal i remember that at anitay from kotaku there was a bunch of people who calculated it and if you assume you are a NEET that spends its whole waking hours except food and bathroom breaks you would have catched up with every anime there was till this day and all that aired in between until about 2030 so no, its (at least technically) not impossible |
 |
| No it's not possible to watch every anime because everyone will eventually die and anime will be made after they die, which, being dead, they won't be able to watch. |

| based on our current technology you can watch more than 10 anime on a single largest monitor available. the drawback is that you will not be able to understand what you are watching. |
| internet is a cruel mistress |
| It's impossible. Especially because there are lots of anime that you may not even heard of. |
 |
| I cant even finish 5 fking anime series in a month. Those that can marathon naruto and other 300+ series, I bow down to u. Coz I cant |
| There are so many, most of them surely aren't even subbed. And I don't think there's some who'll love them all. |
 |
| A lot of anime are already lost in time, due to ww2 (Maybe) or lack of care. So yes, it is impossible. |
 |
| It's impossible to watch ALL of them. Unless you're immortal or something. |

| There are hundreds are anime that are still untranslated, for example a show called SPT Layzner, it came out in 1985. It didn't start getting a sub until last decade, and only finished 2 years ago. And most 70s and early 80s shows get left unsubbed. Most post 2000s shows get subbed though. There's even anime that are no where online, or atleast will take A LOT of searching to find. But watching every anime will be impossible if you plan to do other things, like sleep. Unless literally all you do in your life is watch anime then you can't do it. |
| I'll guess that there's probably only about 30-40 years worth of anime listed on MAL and maybe twice that if you include doujinshi. There's only about 100 new TV series each year which roughly translates to about 20 days worth. Compared to film where there is a good 1000+ years worth already in existence and about 1.2 years worth made each year there isn't that much anime. The main problem with trying to watch every anime isn't how much time it will take to watch them but rather the fact that many either don't exist anymore or are not available in English or outside of Japan. A time machine would be more important than immortality if you want to watch every anime. |

| Nah... people are skeptical :3 If they believe you that you were able to watch every anime series then its simple they will believe you otherwise not; however, I can definitely say that is is impossible because "Sazae-san" series is an on-going series that holds the longest running anime series that has over 7000 episodes, and if you can imagine there are some people saying that One Piece or Detective Conan is to hassle to watch because it is more than a hundred episode unless you are dedicated but image Sazae-san series is 10 times more than One Piece or Detective Conan xD |
| Why would you watch all animes in the world ? Watch the best animes before, it will take ages !!! Nya |
| Nya Nya ! |
Xeraeulius said: Sazae-san has a fairly similar style to The Simpsons and it will often parody contemporary media such as books, movies, and other anime. Many of the things it has parodied were soon forgotten. Because of this many of the episodes have been intentionally removed from the public. Sazae-san is impossible to watch in its entirety.Nah... people are skeptical :3 If they believe you that you were able to watch every anime series then its simple they will believe you otherwise not; however, I can definitely say that is is impossible because "Sazae-san" series is an on-going series that holds the longest running anime series that has over 7000 episodes, and if you can imagine there are some people saying that One Piece or Detective Conan is to hassle to watch because it is more than a hundred episode unless you are dedicated but image Sazae-san series is 10 times more than One Piece or Detective Conan xD |

I see so thats how they were able to generate those huge amount of episodes xD |
| Might be possible if I can train my eyes to watch at superhuman speed. But i cant. |
| Nah, i dont think sharing anime ratings in signature is cool thing. Here, stare at this pointless signature instead. |
| After three years ... it's still impossible. |
| Wow, people bumped the shit out of this thread XD I actually forgot about it, but thanks for all the replies over the years, haha.
